This is an excerpt from an interview of radio host Luis Pons by Fontova: “During a 1959 press conference Luis Pons, a prominent Cuban black, asked Che Guevara, what the revolution planed on doing to help blacks. Che answered: “We’re going to do for blacks exactly what blacks did for the revolution. By which I mean: nothing.”
This is from 1965 during the war in the Congo from Bert Corzo article “Che Guevara: The Fish Die by the Mouth”: “Again and again he pointed to a lack of leadership amongst the Africans, the incompetence of the Congolese fighters and a terrible disorganization. Che’s assessments make him look like a racist.”
In reference to the Bolivian peasants, Che wrote in his Diary in Bolivia on June 19, 1967 “the inhabitants one must hunt them to be able to speak with them because they are like little animals.” Wonder if Evo Morales has read them? He's too busy ribbon-cutting Che monuments in Bolivian villages.
The justification that Che was young, and immature doesn’t cut it anymore. As we can see from his behavior, he was a racist person through and through all his life.

Che Guevara was no hero, he was a racist

“The black is indolent and a dreamer; spending his meager wage on frivolity or drink" - Do these sound like the words of a left-wing hero?
When Sen. Marco Rubio, R-Fla., chastised celebrity couple Jay-Z and Beyonce in a TV interview for their recent trip to Cuba, he especially criticized Jay-Z for his adoration of Che Guevara.
“I think Jay-Z needs to get informed,” Rubio said. “One of his heroes is Che Guevara. Che Guevara was a racist. Che Guevara was a racist that wrote extensively about the superiority of white Europeans over people of African descent, so he should inform himself [about] the guy that he’s propping up.”
Jay-Z, Carlos Santana, and Johnny Depp — who have all been spotted in Guevara t-shirts in the last decade — have, as Rubio correctly noted, largely ignored the issue. Yet, some leftist defenders of Guevara do occasionally deal with Guevara's views on race. A blogger named Faraji Toure at “Afro-Punk” notes a troubling passage from Guevara’s 1952 diary:
“The blacks, those magnificent examples of the African race who have maintained their racial purity thanks to their lack of an affinity with bathing, have seen their territory invaded by a new kind of slave: the Portuguese.”
“The black is indolent and a dreamer; spending his meager wage on frivolity or drink; the European has a tradition of work and saving, which has pursued him as far as this corner of America and drives him to advance himself, even independently of his own individual aspirations.”
Che frequently delighted in belittling blacks.
"The black is indolent and a dreamer; spending his meager wage on frivolity or drink; the European has a tradition of work and saving,"
that's Che himself in his celebrated Motorcycle Diaries. Can't imagine how Robert Redford left that out of his charming movie.
From Che’s diaries during his stay in Costa Rica in 1953:
“I stayed outside with a young black woman that I picked up, Socorro, more whore that the hens, with 16 years on her back.”
Here he shows his racial bias towards black women and his latent social resentment is made evident once more time.
Che didn't think much of Mexicans either, look at what he said about them according to “el Coreano”, Che’s comrade in Mexico: “Miguel Sanchez, el "Coreano", responsible of the military instruction of Castro’s Granma expeditionary force in Mexico in 1956. El Coreano affirmed that
“Che always had problems with the blacks and despised them just like the Indians of Mexico"
, to which he referred as
“the illiterate Indians of Mexico.”
Che shows his racist face again.

Che hatred against the United States was so deep, that he did not give a damn that such action sealed the annihilation of many innocent New Yorkers, including children and women.

During the Clinton Administration, the CIA ability to recruit & protect agents & informants within terrorist organizations, were severely limited. This made the US intelligence services more dependent on electronic snooping, and less able to protect the American people.

When The FBI Tracked Terror-Suspects—Literally! (townhall.com)

Now that the media and political dust has settled regarding the Boston bombing investigation, a failure by our intelligence agencies to properly “track” the Tsarnaev brothers seems like an inescapable factor. So a reminder of how the FBI once handled these matters might be good for the soul:
"I’ve got Suero and Garcia in sight," reported Special Agent John Malone to Assistant FBI director Alan Belmont. "Can arrest them easily."
"Anything on Santiesteban?" asked Belmont, who sat just down the hall from J. Edgar Hoover.
"We have the area around the U.N. staked out but haven’t spotted him yet," answered Malone who ran the FBI’s New York field office.

Frightening what the Castro-Che regime had in storage for the American people. Thanks to the FBI under the leadership of J. Edgar Hoover, the agents were able to stopped this bomb plot protecting the New Yorkers from a holocaust bigger that 9/11.

Che only was able to beg for his life, he didn’t know to die like a man, like the 14 years old boy he killed at La Cabaña that said to him:
“If you're going to kill me you're going to have to do it the way you kill a man, standing, not like a coward, kneeling.”

It happens that June 14 is U.S. “Flag Day”, which commemorates the adoption of the flag of the United States, which happened on that day in 1777 by resolution of the Second Continental Congress. The bastard that was borne that same day hoisted the red flag of the death's head and cross under it, the butcher of La Cabaña.

Che failed miserable in the Congo and Bolivia, after being marginalized by Fidel Castro. Before, during and after the Castroit regime grab power in Cuba, he customarily violated the doctors Hippocratic Oath torturing and executing prisoners. An Argentinean, son of a well to do family and a favorite of his mother, start out a revolution in the Bolivia countryside without knowing that the Bolivian Indians spoke Quechua instead of Spanish. He and his men got lost, suffer starvation and at the end were track down by the Bolivian army, made prisoner and executed. For a guy that practically failed at everything, it is hard to understand how this loser became an icon of freedom.

During the Cuban missile crisis on October 1962, Che demanded that nuclear war be unleashed on the United States. He told British reporter Sam Russell that
“if the nuclear missiles had been under Cuban control (during the Cuban missile crisis), they would have fired them off.”
Reportedly, he was disappointed when Khrushchev decided to draw back his weapons in the missile crisis.
"If the rockets had remained, we would have used them all and directed them against the very heart of the United States, including New York, in our defense against aggression."
And a couple of years later, at the United Nations, he was true to form:
“As Marxists we have maintained that peaceful coexistence among nations does not include coexistence between exploiters and the exploited.”

“Happy” Birthday, Che Guevara (townhall.com)

June 14th marked Ernesto Che Guevara’s 85th birthday. Yet amazingly, no celebrations were reported by the Obama campaign precinct-captain who in 2008 decorated her Houston office with his famous visage.
And this precinct-captain was not your usual bubble-headed Che Groupie who seemed to recall the awesome dude opening for the Foo Fighters at Lollapalooza. No, this Che fan was middle-aged woman born in Cuba where she lived during a period when Che Guevara was Cuba's chief executioner and second in command. At the time, Cuba had the highest political incarceration and execution rate on earth, far surpassing that of their Soviet mentors and suitors. Chile’s much-reviled Pinochet regime never even approached it.

This Cuban American woman, with the Che image on the Cuban flag in the background, is obviously a Castro sympathizer. She is doing the same thing that some Cuban sympathizers are doing. See what they can find out and what they can organize against this Great Country.
Under Che Guevara's rule "Change" indeed came to Cuba. If I was running for President, I would make damn sure that I wasn't being misrepresented by ANY office, especially on TV, unless of course I endorsed it.
Video link:

Che defended that initiative in his own words:
“We only send those doubtful cases where we are not sure people should go to jail.”
These people would be transported at gunpoint into concentration camps. Some would never return; others would be raped, beaten, or mutilated; and most would be traumatized for life. This type of forced confinement without due process was also applied to AIDS victims during the decade of the 80s and 90s.

Che, the radical left symbol, was a homophobe. He played a principal role in setting up Cuba's first labor camp in the Guanahacabibes region in western Cuba in 1960-1961. This camp was the precursor to the eventual systematic confinement, starting in 1965 in the province of Camagüey, of dissidents, homosexuals, Catholics, Jehovah's Witnesses, Afro-Cuban priests, and other such scum, under the banner of UMAP, Military Units to Help Production.

Ms. Baker took the time to learn the facts and provides us with that glimmer of hope that perhaps not all of America's college youth is completely ignorant of Cuban history. She paints a very different picture of the “revolutionary” poster icon.

Guevara’s elevation as symbol of goodness, due to the self-indulgence and frivolity of pampered Western pseudo revolutionaries, speaks clearly of their lack of critical objective analysis.

Babe, I posted a Bowie line. That's all. Your logic is dumb, but I do not, nor have I ever, owned any piece of merchandise with Che Guevara on it. You're stuck and spiraling

If you buy a Che shirt what are you endorsing? Capitalism, one of the many things Che was fighting against. By plastering his face on every piece of merchandise imaginable you have completely gone against his socialist beliefs.

Next time you see someone sporting a shirt or anything with the visage of Marxist freedom fighter, Ernesto “Che” Guevara, stop and ask them what they know about this romanticized symbol of revolution.
Clothing stores, like this one in Belfast, Northern Ireland, feature T-shirts with the image of Marxist freedom fighter Ernesto “Che” Guevara. Hollywood and counterculture young adults romanticize the life of a man who executed thousands and said, “the victory of Socialism is worth millions of atomic deaths.” | Wikimedia Commons
Chances are it’s not too much.
Among our generation, there exists a “cult of Che” completely ignorant in their adoration and glorification. Psychology freshman major Kiana Wall said he’s a symbol with a false or misunderstood value.
“As a symbol, Guevara had meaning in the past,” Wall said, “but it seems like those who wear those shirts now are just trying to exaggerate their political radicalism without knowing much about him at all.”

Sarah Baker is a business major at the University of Houston and has written several Op-Eds for the school's paper, The Daily Cougar. In this opinion piece she takes on the obsession a number of people have with Che Guevara, wearing t-shirts with his image while being totally oblivious to the fact Guevara was a psychotic, sadistic mass murderer.
