HAVANA - Former Cuban President Fidel Castro said, Iran does not seem to be at war with the United States (U.S.). Castro's statement came after he met with Iranian President Ahmadinejad in Cuba a few days ago.

"I am sure, Iran will not perform an action that will create a war," said Castro told reporters on Saturday (14/01/2012).

"I knew President of Iran, he looked calm and not aggressive. I also believe that Iran has the ability to respond to U.S. aggression," he added.

Praise be to Allaah Castro also said the strained relationship between Uncle Sam and Iran would create a complicated problem in the Middle East and Central Asia.

When both enemies of the United States was met, Ahmadinejad expressed his excitement as he watched Castro apparently healthy condition. Iran also spoke at the University of Havana in Cuba and denounced capitalism.

"I am very pleased to see the condition of a healthy Castro commander," said Ahmadinejad, who spoke through a translator.

Fidel Castro in power for five decades in Cuba handed power to his own brother, Raul Castro in 2006 because his health is deteriorating. However, Fidel is still regarded as a very powerful figure and influential in Cuba.

Until now, Castro has always voiced commentary and challenging anti-ASnya Uncle Sam. Castro also became a figure model for leaders of other Latin American countries, such as Hugo Chavez in Venezuela, Evo Morales in Bolivia and Daniel Ortega in Nicaragua.

Justin Bieber's Faith Doesn't Involve Church



Justin Bieber has always been very open about his faith in Christianity (including his most recent Jesus tattoo), but in his upcoming cover story in V Magazine, he revealed that for him being a Christian doesn't automatically equal being member of a church. “A lot of people who are religious, I think they get lost," Justin said. "They go to church just to go to church. I’m not trying to disrespect them . . . but for me, I focus more on praying and talking to Him. I don’t have to go to church."

Justin continued, “Now that I’m on top, everyone wants to bring me down . . . Everyone’s trying to tug at me and take my spot. Like Floyd Mayweather, he’s the best boxer in the world. Now he is a champion. Every time he goes to a fight now, people are like, ‘He’s going to lose this time.’ ” Source:



Justin Bieber Determined to "Remain Relevant" In His Music Career Jan, 10 2012

Justin Bieber Determined to "Remain Relevant" In His Music Career

Jan, 10 2012

According to an article in the Chicago Sun-Times, Justin Bieber is determined to "remain relevant" musically. A source close to Bieber told the Sun-Times,

“Justin is a serious musician. He knows how to keep his cool. He understands how hard it is to remain relevant. … He wants to become what he calls a ‘forever star,’ like a Madonna or a Stevie Wonder or a Sinatra or Tony Bennett. He does have this thing about wanting to be eternally loved by his fans.”

The source went on to explain how Bieber recognizes that staying on top is a struggle, a struggle that Bieber intents to win. Bieber's friend said,
“Justin is so very savvy about his fame and the media, and he also ‘gets’ that whole concept of people being targeted [by the press] when they’re on top. Justin knows how everyone loves a hot newcomer … and then can so quickly turn fickle and begin to dig up stuff to tear them down.”

Justin's Music to Remain "Clean" as He Transitions to Adulthood - V Magazine Interview



In his recent interview with V Magazine, Justin Bieber revealed that while he wants to transition to a more mature, adult musical style, his lyrics and focus will remain "clean."

Justin said,

" I don’t want to start singing about things like sex, drugs, and swearing. I’m into love, and maybe I’ll get more into making love when I’m older. But I want to be someone who is respected by everybody. Because right now, the young people are who make society. Young people determine what’s cool. Young people determine what’s going to be in style. So I always stick with the young people, that’s what I say. "

Justin also responded to the fact that he will be turning 18 soon by adding,

"There are people who try to grow up too fast—they’re 18, so they’re like, I’m not a kid anymore. People need to know I’m not a kid anymore. But at the end of the day, I’m not completely grown-up. I’m still learning. I’m going to grow up how I grow up. I’m not going to try to conform to what people want me to be or go out there and start partying, have people see me with alcohol. I want to do it at my own pace. But I’m never going to make myself so the kids and the parents don’t respect me."

Justin Bieber turns 18 this March. As pop music’s little prince takes his first steps into adulthood, will he prove he’s ready to be the king?

I was going to write this all out. Spit articulate on the birth and the beast of Justin Bieber’s celebrity, his place in the annals of youthfame, how he stacks up against its storied casualties and its few but phenomenal survivors. As Justin (b. 3/1/94) approaches 18—exiting the protective bubble of adolescence and entering the first chapter of adulthood—can he transition into an artist for everyone rather than a teen phenom? What are the dangers of being Bieber? Decisions are now more his own than they’ve ever been, and as a target his attacks broaden from G-rated darts (agro tween tweets; wardrobe judgments; girlfriend problems) to all-bets-are-off bullets. The recent press explosion surrounding the baseless accusations of illicit babymaking weren’t so much about did-he-or-didn’t-he? but rather a global excitement that Bieber can now be subjected to such tabloid see-what-sticks shit-tossing.
I was going to write it all out, because I assumed I’d have to—that none of it would come from the teenager himself. We first met several months back at the photo shoot, where I held strong to my preconceived (and incorrect) notion that he’s probably a brat, a punk kid overfed on the perception of a world obsessed with him. Like many, I didn’t give him a chance, and I didn’t like him before I knew him at all. I’m his perfect demographic of disapproval: an adult man, the exact audience that Bieber will have to win over as he becomes a man himself.
The second time I met Justin Bieber, I watched him get punched in the face. We sat on a couch in his hotel room days before his second studio album, the Christmas themed Under the Mistletoe, debuted at number one on the U.S. Billboard 200, right in the middle of the highly publicized paternity scandal, the day before he went on an extensive press tour abroad. Justin walked in the room wearing a trapper hat that swallowed his head, looking genuinely exhausted with a pimple on the side of his mouth but every bit the handsome kid who defines for girls around the world their notion of love. This Bieber was insightful, self-aware, and prescient. He was totally unguarded, earnest, and real. I quickly stopped interviewing him and we just talked. I felt like I was hearing out the issues of a little brother, a descriptor I’d heard countless people close to him use in the 2011 concert film Never Say Never, a documentary-shaped strike against haters who write him off as another talentless pop-machine-robot, showing the journey of a hardworking, near-prodigy precocious kid, a born star.
I’m not writing this all out because I don’t have to. Apparently the first sign of Justin Bieber being an adult is that no one has to speak for him. He knows exactly who he is, where he’s at, and what he wants. You don’t need to hear it from me because you can just hear it from him. After our talk, Bieber showed me a video on his phone of him and his friends boxing. More precisely, of him beating the shit out of one of his bigger friends. Justin Bieber’s a fighting man—fearless, graceful, ferocious—and that’s a pretty good place to start. I left our talk with plans to hang out when he returns to the city, without a doubt in my mind that he’s going to be just fine. I left with a sensation something like pride. A sensation the rest of the world will perhaps come to know once they meet the man Justin Bieber becomes. Elliott David

Justin Bieber Hides Behind Golden Mask During Beach Trip



Justin Bieber generated a lot of publicity last week when he was repeatedly spotted on the beach and around the L.A. area with his dad, Jeremy, and friends, including Ryan Butler. Well, it looks like even Justin Bieber gets tired of being recognized. Justin was seen Friday (January 6th, 2011), at Venice Beach, California, sporting a gold mask in what seems to be an attempt to avoid being recognized. Of course the presence of his dad and Ryan Butler, as well as Justin's most recent Jesus tattoo, makes it pretty obvious who is behind the mask. Check out more pictures below!

What do you think of Bieber's disguise? Smart, silly, or just plain weird?
