Others who believe they and everyone like them has our best interest at heart. One takes things at face value, the other digs for information.
I dig for information. And again, since neither one of you have done extensive research, and in one case, chooses to take what someone else tells them and run with it, not finding out the information for himself, from perhaps another source other than his own, you're all bringing a one-sided arguement to the table.
Why do I respect Che? Because he's an example of courage and unwavering strength. Talk all the shit you want about him, because all you're really doing is helping his popularity. You're not really important until someone doesn't like you.
Like it or not, there are Guerrilla factions all over the world that still wave flags with his face on it, because he inspired people all around the world who want justice and freedom from oppressive governments. Just like Malcolm, Guy Fawkes, William Wallace and others.
Any news articles or something to prove any of these atrocities that were supposedly committed? Oh, and please remember, in war, people die. I bet you if Che was American and The Batistas were Iraqis, all of you would shut the fuck up as far as that, "war criminal" shit is concerned. :W
