However, thanks to startling developments in military and communications technology, this perennial threat to freedom and security has taken a quantum leap forward during the past thirty years. In many cases, these vicious and determined men and women have supplanted nation states on the globe's "most wanted" list! This extraordinary 26-episode series provides a comprehensive look at these modern masters of political murder and extortion. From the I.R.A. to al-Qaeda, Global Terror runs the gamut of groups that have pledged themselves to destroy the stability that we cling to so tenuously—examining their goals, their methods and their terrifying prospects for success! **Part 19: Fidel Castro** When Fidel Castro stepped down as president of Cuba in February 2008, he was the world’s longest-serving political leader. He was also the man who, in October 1962, together with Soviet premier Nikita Khrushchev, brought the world to the brink of all-out nuclear war during what became known as the Cuban Missile Crisis., Fidel Castro is revered by many as a great revolutionary. But in winning his reputation he brought death, destruction and misery to countless numbers of people. ==See Also== {{http://www.bbcactivevideoforlearning.com/1/SeriesDetails.aspx?SeriesID=957|BBC Site}} ==Trailer== ,,Full Version Available Upon Request,, {{ youtube> }} ==Full Version== \\ \\ ,,The availability of this link might be uncertain!,,\\ ,,Full version is available upon request.,, {{ youtube>iHwduqwd88s }} \\ \\ \\ {{tag>Terrorism Society History Politic SER BBC_-_International_Terrorism_(2008) FF 2008 Ar11/13 Name}}
