Well,
it's nearing the 26th of July and I am reminded of Che Guevara.



So i was wondering what people here think of him; father of revoloution and great political leader, or mudrerous pig?

Idol of wannabe-rebels

Don't really know his story well enough, but to me there is nothing that says "■■■■ the system" better than sporting a t-shirt with Che guevara you bought for 24.99$ at the gap... [img]smile.gif[/img]

I think that he was a good man who fought for the right thing. Justice. Well they all say that. But from what I have read and seen (The Motorcycle diaries) I assume he was a man of good heart. Sure revolution is revolution but I think it was necessary.

*nods frantically*

I couldn't agree more, Jorath. The man is severly overrated. As is Bob Marley, and Elvis Presley for that matter.

Never assume, especially based on data from leftist movies. The man was a murderous thug, and got what was coming to him.

LOL @ Jorath.

Yeah i do agree...

But i do find it amazing that 82 people can take a country, asymetric warfare or no, the cuban army had an airforce and a proper armed force and 82 poorly armed rebels can cause such an upheval.

I just find it amazing how some people are so absoloutly powerfull.

Xen, you're right, but you've got too much letters. It should be CIA, not CharIsmA.
Che? Well, he was a man who thought the small guy ought to have a voice in matters. Some say he was duped over in Cuba, so he left to die on some other battlefield when he realised.
