#2 Che was a pathological murderer nothing else. I don't hold with the non military use of bombs or with terrorist bombers but this makes me smile. Che was a pig and died like one as he richly deserved.

#3 I recall how Bolivian peasants marched over 10 miles on foot, to rat on the Argentian Fidelist. When I was in La Paz in the seventies, an elderly Bolivian - with Chaco War experience - proudly told me about how his countrymen executed a corrupt President. El Dictador - Villarol - was swung from a lamp post. Mussolini was hung upside down after being shot; Bolivians are the only people who took the rope to their leader.

#4 Che was no angel, Senor Lopez, and I'm sure there are plenty of Bolivians still around who had family members who were killed by your hero.

Maybe some teenage goofballs were screwing around.

Either way, bravo! ;)

#6 My favorite Che story: just after the Bolivian army ambushed and wounded Che, he was laying the ground pleading for his life. He was saying, "don't shoot me, I'm worth more to you alive."

The Bolivians knew better, of course, and killed him.

#7 This is my favotite Che article.

Mike Tyson used to end fights with his arms upraised in triumph. Then he got a Che Guevara tattoo. Now he ends fights on the ground, a bloodied mess, battered and bowed, pounded almost beyond recognition. Lennox Lewis didn't just defeat him, he stomped him. It was a hideous thing to watch, even if you loathe Mike Tyson.

Tyson was jinxed by that Che tattoo. There's no other explanation. Somebody should have enlightened mighty Mike about the real Che Guevara.

#8 Umm Steve, I beg to differ about who killed El Che. It was an anti-Castro Cuban whose nom de guerre was Felix Gomez. And yes, Che did utter those words, as Mr. Gomez will confirm.

One of my best friends happens to be a long time pal of Mr. Gomez -- both go back to childhood days in pre-Castro Cuba. Mr. Gomez was a CIA operative who fought the good fight against communism in Cuba, Latin America, Afirca, and even Indochina.

Bolivian and US Special Forces captured Che, and it was Mr. Gomez who helped interrogate El Che. He capped it off, with Bolivian permission of course, by putting two .45 caliber rounds into Che's bossom. Mr. Gomez still has the SOB's watch.
