Addition Of Fidel Castro In Black Ops Game Doesn't Amuse Cuba
The addition of previous president of Cuba within the video game “Black Ops” led to a severe rebuke from the Cuban govt. The first level of the video game takes place throughout the Cuban Revolution, where players try to assassinate Fidel Castro. The maker of the games was slammed for encouraging psychopathy.

Fidel Castro mission causes controversy
In "Call of Duty - Black Ops" by Activision, players within the regular game mode go on a series of missions within the Cold War era as part of a Special Operations Group, behind enemy lines. There are numerous flashbacks going on for the missions. Anywhere between Cuba and Vietnam there could possibly be a mission. The first mission is to assassinate Fidel Castro, through the Bay of Pigs invasion. There is a type of anger coming from the Cuban government about this, Reuters reports. Of course, that hasn’t stopped it from selling like crazy. As outlined by the Cuban government, the game “stimulates sociopathic attitudes” among young people. There is another reason why Cuban officials are upset. They say the game is just too virtually doing what the U.S. “did not achieve in more than 50 years” of trying.
Castro in Secret level also
The multiplayer mode of the game features the "Black Ops" zombie’s option, where players battle legions of the undead, as outlined by Kotaku. There are many characters accessible for play. Among these are Fidel Castro, Richard Nixon, Robert S. McNamara and John F. Kennedy. The inclusion of Fidel Castro within the "Black Ops" multiplayer level wasn't mentioned by Cuba. That said, the Cuban government has cause for taking offense.
Don’t forget about the Family Jewels
The Central Intelligence Agency released a report called “Family Jewels.” This had been in 2007. There were tries to assassinate Fidel Castro in the record. The federal government within the United States worked with organized crime to try and get him killed. In fact, they tried to poison Castro’s wetsuit and once even gave him a cigar that was supposed to explode. Cuba is still fairly soar about things even if “Call of Duty - Black Ops” is just a video game.
