Fidel Castro discussed the political "errors and horrors" of former US president George W. Bush with filmaker Oliver Stone, the Cuban leader wrote Thursday.
Castro, 83, in an editorial carried in official media, said he had a long talk with Oliver Stone about his film "W" about the Bush presidency.
Slamming Bush for dragging the United States to war in Iraq and failing to sign the Kyoto Protocol on global warming, Fidel Castro said he told Stone "my point of view about Bush's responsibility" for those and other political missteps.
Castro wrote that "after the political errors and horrors of George W. Bush," former US vice president Dick Cheney appallingly justified torture.
"Let's get this straight, it is a question of political ethics: 'the end does not justify the means.' Torture does not justify torture; one crime does not justify another crime," Castro added.
