The Hurricane, According

LA HABANA - Cuban
Revolution leader Fidel
Castro said that only
the ideas defended with
courage, dignity and
strength will prevail.
In an article titled
"The Hurricane,"
released on Monday,
Fidel Castro stresses
that "he deepest
convictions, which have
successfully resisted
the trials of time and
the upheavals of life,
can not be acquired on a
single day. Before that,
it is necessary to
surmount many trends
that we all bear in our
inner self.
"Nothing is as
devastating as the
damage and destruction
left behind by a
hurricane. Hundreds of
thousands of compatriots
mobilize and work very
hard during the passing
of the hurricane and
afterwards during the
recovery stage. Reserves
are reduced or depleted.
Today, more than ever,
the damages caused on
food supplies are costly
and significant. But
this is our country;
this is our rightful
place in this planet,
and we have to develop
and defend it," says
Fidel Castro, referring
to the recent passage of
Hurricane Gustav.
"The task we have ahead
requires time and
expertise. The true Cuba
and its noble people,
which have been ready to
share with others its
knowledge and even part
of its resources
including its own blood,
were not built
overnight. That is why
it has been an
invincible adversary in
confronting the powerful
empire that has tried
all of its weapons
against our country."
