→Death
The consensus is that Castro died on November 25, 2016. Numerous sources confirm this. He's been seen after his 2006 surgery numerous times. While obviously some inconsistencies surround him, I believe that we should fix the article so that we reflect the overwhelming consensus. Maybe a new page could be made addressing the theory that he died in 2006.

:You are aware that CNN, The Guardian, Aljazeera, and BBC are all left wing rags, right? I'm not sure on NY Post as to whether it's conservative or liberal, so I'll let that slide at the moment. However, we can't really use the left-wing media as a reason to assume he's dead, especially considering they've got plenty of facts wrong before, and besides which, a large part of the reason why Castro is in power is because of the mainstream media being tricked by him.
