Ex-Cuban leader will make rare TV appearance, newspaper says
HAVANA — Former Cuban leader Fidel Castro, who has lived in seclusion since falling ill four years ago, will appear on Cuban television and radio Monday evening to discuss his theory that the world is on the verge of nuclear war, the Communist Party newspaper Granma said in its Monday online edition.
The appearance will mark the second time in less than a week that the suddenly resurgent 83-year-old has made a public appearance, after staying out of view, except in occasional photographs and videos, since undergoing emergency intestinal surgery in July 2006.
Last Wednesday, he made a visit to a Havana scientific center that was disclosed in a blog on Saturday.
Castro is scheduled to appear on the Mesa Redonda, a daily talk show about current events that is usually transmitted live and seen across the island.
Castro writes opinion columns, or "Reflections," for Cuba's state-run media that in recent weeks have focused on his prediction that nuclear war will soon break out, sparked by a conflict between the United States and Iran over international sanctions against Iran's nuclear activities.
"The empire is at the point of committing a terrible error that nobody can stop. It advances inexorably toward a sinister fate," he wrote on July 5.

It doesn't take an old, washed-up, over-the-hill, murderous dictator to see whats coming in the middle east. Iran is ASKING to be attacked, and although they don't have the "horses" to attack the U.S. (yet), they won't hesitate to attack Israel. We then retaliate (if Obama is NOT the President at the time--- if he IS, we stand by and watch Israel get destroyed, then apologize to all muslims for the trouble Israel started). Then Russia and China (Iran's allies) get invloved. Nuclear exchange (read: holocaust) then becomes a very real scenario. Thank you, Muslim world, for being hell bent on acquiring nuclear weapons, er, uh, i mean, nuclear ENERGY, for uh, peaceful purposes....uh huh...PEACEFUL purposes.
