"...Castro took over power in 1959 from a corrupt Batista..."

Castro may not be the ideal leader but he is nonetheless the product of a people's rebellion against a corrupt government. Some will argue that despite the less than ideal situation, Cubans are much better off today than they were under Battista. On the other hand, many of those who thrived under the corrupt regime of Battista are most vocal against Castro and as such I give very little credibility to their "biased and self-serving" criticism.
