Castro's Beard

From the beginning, no idea is too far-fetched as tactics switch from destablising the Cuban government to outright assassination

Suggestions range from poisonous snakes in the mail, exploding underwater sea-shells, and poisoning Castro's socks to cause his beard to fall out, denuding him of his iconic symbol of power

And finally a plan involving Mafia hit-men and - of course - an exploding cigar!

As Castro's visit looms ever closer, the stakes rise in this satirical tale of desperate government responses to foreign provocation - an issue resonant today as ever
