    PBS Hemingway Docuseries Covers Up His Communist Connections | Frontpage Mag
    April 15, 2021 by Humberto Fontova
    “They Are Giving Hemingway Another Look, So You Can, Too…Lynn Novick and Ken Burns consider the seminal writer in all his complexity and controversy in their new PBS documentary series. Could there be anything more subversive than turning a spotlight, in this moment, on Ernest Hemingway?” wrote Gal Beckerman in the The New York Times this month.
    “Subversive?” Ah! At least the term appears in connection with the docuseries. And considering that Ernest Hemingway eagerly joined Stalin’s KGB (technically the NKVD at the time), secretly contributed tens of thousands to the Cuban communist party and (literally) drank, as a spectator, to Che Guevara and Fidel Castros’ firing-squad murder marathons, you might think the term “subversive” fits.Click link for full article.
    Fontova nailed, after all McCarthy was right. Hemingway supported lefties causes, a hypocritical fellow traveler. The PBS documentary is just glamorizing his life. He watched mass executions like it was a sporting event.

    Hemingway described Fidel Castro regime as "very pure and beautiful", that alone tell you a lot about the man political leaning. He was just a typical fellow traveler.

      Hemingway invited his friend George Plimpton, editor of the Paris Review, to witness the shooting of prisoners condemned by the tribunals under Guevara's control. They watched as the men were trucked in, unloaded, shot, and taken away. As a result, Plimpton later refused to publish Guevara's memoir, The Motorcycle Diaries.

            Che: A revolution in pop culture misrepresentation - The Cougar (thedailycougar.com
            )
            By Sarah Backer
            Published on Friday, April 12, 2013
            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.”
            Click link above for full article.
            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.

                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.

                  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

                    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.

                      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.

                        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.

                          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.

                            “Happy” Birthday, Che Guevara (townhall.com)
                            Humberto Fontova | Jun 21, 2013
                            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.
                            Click link for full article.
                            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.

                              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.”

                                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.

                                  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 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.”

                                      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.

                                        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.

                                        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.

                                          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.
