Brutal Dictator Fidel Castro Dead at 90

After nearly a half-century of leading a murderous dictatorship in Cuba, Fidel Castro has died at the age of 90.

With his trademark olive-green military fatigues, flowing beard and marathon speeches, Mr. Castro was a pivotal figure in U.S.-Latin American relations from the moment he seized power in Havana in 1959.
