They really wanted Che, but he's dead . . .

Guess who's going to be lighting a menorah? From Ynetnews.com:
Cuban ruler Fidel Castro will use an official state ceremony to inaugurate Israel's symbol – the seven-branch menorah – in a central Havana square, in memory of the Jews murdered in the Holocaust.

Attending the event will be Castro's associate, Israeli Minister Rafi Eitan (Pensioners Party).

Eitan said the idea to set up the memorial was suggested by the Havana Mayor, who is renovating the city's old quarter.
