New York Times mocks the award of peace to Castro

The New York Times did not mock awarding peace prizes to the likes of war criminals like Nixon, Kissinger, Rabin, and Peres, among others.  Where and when did Castro commit war crimes like Obama or Bush or Netanyahu?  It said: "He made no mention of Cuba’s military intervention in the Angolan civil war and other conflicts in Africa in the late 20th century."   Yes, Cuba intervened in Africa but--unlike the US--not on the side of apartheid South Africa and other right-wing supremacists and embezzlers. Castro supported the struggle of Africans against colonial powers, and that in itself deserves a peace prize.
