Castro: "Everything I Say is a Lie"

Fidel Castro has reacted rather badly to John McCain’s revelation that the torturers at the North Vietnamese POW camp at which he was a guest for some of his formative years were Cubans. Castro warns him: “The commandments of the religion you practice prohibit lying.”

I love it when the irreligious pull this kind of comment on Christians—as they so often do. The devil speaks truth in spite of himself. For what Castro is actually saying here, implicitly but unambiguously, is that he believes that, if he is not Christian, he is free to lie.

Which, we can assume, he is doing here.
