Professor Carroll does not give an accurate answer, and his characterization of numbers greater than a few thousand as “lunatic” is an example of longstanding left holocaust denial. The number of Castro’s Cuban murder victims is much larger than anything done by organized crime or the US, and it is much larger than anything done by Pinochet in Chile, one of the left’s bugaboos. It is not surprising to see today’s left-oriented Obama supporters engage in holocaust denial of the kind in which Professor Carroll enagages. President Obama, in recognizing Castro’s Cuba, has recognized a mass murder regime.
To do a brief fact check, I looked at a Wall Street Journal article located at Counting Castro's Victims , which gives an accurate answer based on the work of Professor Armando Lago. The number is at least 10,000, and likely approaches 100,000.
The left has a long history of holocaust denial involving left regimes, and that began with the New York Times’s denial of mass starvations in Ukraine in the 1930s. Its reporter, Walter Duranty, deliberately lied about the mass deaths there, which numbered in the range of 10 million, and the New York Times continues to refuse to return the Pulitzer Prize Mr. Duranty won for his lies concerning Stalin’s forced starvation of Ukrainian kulaks or wealthy peasants, which numbered approximately 10 million. The Times similarly skated over the mass killing in China when, for example, an article by John Kenneth Galbraith in the 1972 New York Times Magazine extolled the Chinese regime at a time when it had murdered between 25 million and 60 million citizens Similarly, Noam Chomsky has repeatedly engaged in holocaust denial about Cambodia.
An excerpt from the Wall Street Journal article is as follows:
Cuba Archive President Maria Werlau says the total number of victims could be higher by a factor of 10. Project Vice President Armando Lago, a Harvard-trained economist, has spent years studying the cost of the revolution and he estimates that almost 78,000 innocents may have died trying to flee the dictatorship. Another 5,300 are known to have lost their lives fighting communism in the Escambray Mountains (mostly peasant farmers and their children) and at the Bay of Pigs. An estimated 14,000 Cubans were killed in Fidel's revolutionary adventures abroad, most notably his dispatch of 50,000 soldiers to Angola in the 1980s to help the Soviet-backed regime fight off the Unita insurgency.
