A gathering of world leaders for the opening of the General Assembly continues at the United Nations. On Tuesday, Cuba’s delegation walked out of the General Assembly after President Bush called Fidel Castro a “cruel dictator” during his speech. In a statement, the Cuban government said: “Bush is responsible for the murder of over 600,000 civilians in Iraq. … He is a criminal and has no moral authority or credibility to judge any other country. … Cuba condemns and rejects every letter of his infamous tirade.”
