- macsaver, on 10/11/2007, -10/+31Very true, the Che had many people killed simply because they didn't agree with his revolutionary ways. If you only knew the real Che, you would STOP WEARING THOSE CHE SHIRTS!!! Hope this video garners much attention. It is necessary.
- FeartheKnighted, on 10/11/2007, -23/+41Che Guevara was a commie ***** who slaughtered thousands of people who didn't agree with him.
- hippykiller, on 10/11/2007, -10/+27Ok guys lets look at this. What do you do when you have no other choice? What do you do when foreign companies come into your country and snatches up all your natural resources at a price that is not even close to fair? What do you do when peaceful protest is not working. Sometimes the ballet box has to be replaced with the bullet box.
- RedHeadedFreak, on 10/11/2007, -3/+15Pathetic really. Stupid teenagers wearing shirts they know nothing about.
- i1150n, on 10/11/2007, -1/+12“The problem is to find a suitable leader, a good man willing to enter into evil to accomplish good ends. Such men are in short supply; good men shy from evil, and evil men are not interested in good ends”
Macchiavelli - ronmexico, on 10/11/2007, -1/+10I'm embarrassed for you having said that. Do some studying before you comment.
- nickyolas, on 10/11/2007, -3/+11Watch the documentary, or read a book. He was a man utterly determined to achieve his goals, and his cold logic is sometimes scary. This is the kind of reaction you get when foreign interests exploit indigenous populations.
- piterwilson, on 10/11/2007, -1/+6Anyone who has lived close to "armed revolution" knows it goes nowhere fast and in the end it does way more damage than good. Just look at todays' guerillas, the followers of che guevara: mass-murderers, kidnappers and drug dealers. Che guevara said once that the life of one person is worth more than all the money in the world, somebody should have told him that the the life of one man is also worth more than 1000 armed revolutions. There's plenty of books out there written by his former comrads... they regret what they did

Macchiavelli - Synthos, on 10/10/2007, -0/+5You obviously didn't watch the documentary. Che was captured and executed.
- inactive, on 10/10/2007, -0/+5Viva la Dance Dance revolucion.
- theblooms, on 10/10/2007, -0/+4Yeah, it's WAY better to get all your information from people who theorize about the events in the past tense like College Professors, instead of actually asking the people who LIVED it.
/sarcasm - theblooms, on 10/10/2007, -2/+6You fight for freedom with a gun. And then you set up a Republic where the people have the power, not the government, like our Founding Fathers did. What Che did was set up a totalitarian communist government. He became the very thing that he revolted against, but worse.
- knightblade2oo4, on 10/11/2007, -11/+15"Where a government has come into power through some form of popular vote, fraudulent or not, and maintains at least an appearance of constitutional legality, the guerrilla outbreak cannot be promoted, since the possibilities of peaceful struggle have not yet been exhausted."
the man was not a psychotic killing machine. he believed in exercising peaceful methods of change. obviously, in Cuba that did not work. The only reason America boycotts Cuba is because Che and Fidel removed Osvaldo Torrado from power, whom the US government liked. - theblooms, on 10/10/2007, -1/+5"socialism and communism are on the opposite ends of the political spectrum"
Your NOT being serious, are you? Please tell me that was a joke. Because if you are being serious, you are ignorant at best, or blatantly and purposefully lying at worst.
- spankaccount, on 10/10/2007, -2/+5- Twice, Che plotted terrorist attacks against New York City. In November 1962, the FBI cracked a terrorist plot by Cuban agents who targeted Macy’s, Gimbel’s, Bloomingdale’s and Grand Central Terminal. They planned to blow up those landmarks with 12 incendiary devices and 500 kilos of TNT the day after Thanksgiving. Several months before visiting New York in December 1964 and being feted by the toast of the city’s intelligentsia, Che hatched a plan with the Black Liberation Army to blow up the Statue of Liberty, the Liberty Bell and the Washington Monument. The plotters were infiltrated in 1965 by a sharp-eyed NYPD cadet.
- Che detested rock and roll and railed against “long hairs,” “lazy youths,” and homosexuals. At one point, he wrote that the young must always “listen carefully - and with the utmost respect – to the advice of their elders who held governmental authority.”
- Che sidelined black Cubans and mocked those who were part of the revolutionary movement. He once told radio host Luis Pons, “We’re going to do for blacks exactly what blacks did for the revolution. By which I mean: nothing.”
- Che personally ordered 700 executions by firing squad, which he supervised at his jungle headquarters in Cuba. He also hosted book burnings, torching thousands of books owned by suspect intellectuals and librarians. - cubachic, on 10/11/2007, -4/+7Che was a murderous dictator that had ideals of power. He even said to have people follow your ideals, garner those that are ignorant and indigenous. In other words, the indigenous people, in his opinion, were susceptible to believe anything that will "guarantee" them money and freedom. Well look how well that turned out in Cuba.
For those of you that believe communism to be the ideal form of government is completely fooling themselves. Cubans are hungry and sick. What Michael Moore failed to point out in his documentary is that Cubans on the island do not get great health care. If they do not have the American dollars to pay for medicines, they will simply have to stay sick. Of course Moore is going to have the best health care when he is in the island. Any foreigner will. Now in the film the asthma medication seemed to be dirt cheap for that woman, but a Cuban can't afford that. Especially those who don't have American dollars. Che and Fidel brought misery to my country and years of my life. I'm glad I'm in this country. - RaggTopp, on 10/11/2007, -5/+8From the google description "no one should WERE che's image without seeing this documentary"
That's right, lack of rudimentary spelling skills means you're an expert on this? - theblooms, on 10/10/2007, -0/+3Hurting your little Pinko Communist sensibilities, scumbag?
See how personal attacks aren't productive? Don't do it.
- ronmexico, on 10/11/2007, -1/+4Says a lot for the backwards logic of Michael Moore.
- inactive, on 10/11/2007, -2/+4Did you even watch it?
- Jo9100, on 10/11/2007, -7/+9*sings* ...de tu querida presencia, comandante Che Guevaraaaa
- micro506, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2Yes. We have cake. Delicious, expensive cake.
- mapkinase, on 10/10/2007, -1/+3Exactly!
- NSResponder, on 10/10/2007, -2/+3He was a bloodthirsty thug, and the world would be a better place if he'd never been born.
-jcr - nickyolas, on 10/11/2007, -5/+6If you want to tap into the most intense hatred of Cuba, and Cuban leaders all you have to do is talk to Cuban defectors. Not only is Humberto Fontova a defector, all his information comes from defectors. I dont think Che or Fidel or Cuba is perfect, but to believe this demonized view of Cuba and its leaders (check his other books) is retarded. Do some research from scholars and independent journalists to get an idea of who these people really are.
- ezikiel2517, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1He actually started out as a medic when Castro first landed back on Cuba.
- jjalbrecht, on 12/13/2008, -0/+1If you kill one man, you are a murderer, 20 your a serial killer, 1000 you are a revolutionary, 1,000,000 and you are the president.
- rhettnyedotorg, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1i think they threw bottles at the screen when it originally aired din't they?
more che, more tongue in cheek: http://www.videosift.com/video/Mark-Steel-Lectures-Che-Guevara
more shorter for add people - nickyolas, on 10/11/2007, -2/+3They do pretty well considering the economic constraints the embargo puts on them. They have a lower infant mortality rate than the US which is a stat used to determine the overall health of a population. They also were ready to provide 70 emergency medics to Louisiana after Katrina, but the US government refused them.

eating from the same spoon as a homosexual will turn you gay
wearing condoms actually gives you herpes
cite your sources - hatdrop, on 10/10/2007, -1/+1inaccurate the founding fathers set up a government where people like them have a power. do some reading, most of them actually loathed the common individual because they found them to be lacking their level of intelligence.
- knightblade2oo4, on 10/11/2007, -6/+6well it is appalling to have murdered that many people but think back to how many veterans in the US were given high regards and a medal of honor for their number of confirmed kills. I am not saying what Che did is right, but there are people in the US that did the same ***** and are regarded as heroes. There are even people on federal pay working in prisons that execute people for a living.
I'd like to take the time to thank you for debating this without swearing, bashing, offending, or getting pissed off. it's rare on digg. haha. - jjalbrecht, on 12/13/2008, -0/+0jcr is right, we should all be slaves to the banks, after all God said they where our rulers!
As for you ronhob, who are you? must be a nobody like all of us... - mikeylopez, on 10/11/2007, -15/+15He was a doctor who helped thousands of people free of charge. His daughter is also in the medical business, helping the less fortunate. She comes out in Michael Moore's movie, sicko.
- niczar, on 10/10/2007, -1/+1How could he be a dictator considering he was not head of state / government?
- rhettnyedotorg, on 10/10/2007, -1/+1more che biography: http://www.videosift.com/video/Mark-Steel-Lectures-Che-Guevara
- omgImSoCool, on 10/10/2007, -3/+3Its funny how we remember commies as killers but our "heroes" as saints. The US govs have had so much blood in their hands that I have come to realize that only stupid ignorants dare to preach or believe stuff like "che guevara was a killer" when we have a President that acts like a retard with his finger on the trigger of a machine gun. If we did a world wide poll and ask people who's the worst killer, they wouldn't think twice, the US past govs and the BUSH and his gang would be on top. Also, the more the US ***** thing up abroad, the more popular and respected killers like Che become.
- hatdrop, on 10/10/2007, -0/+0rush is not only fat but a drug addict. yet the conservative population refuses to call him out on both those counts. judging from the flow of this thread, i'm obviously going to get dugg down for making such a preposterious and blasphemous claim
- NSResponder, on 10/10/2007, -2/+2Blow it out your ass, pinkbot.
-jcr - inactive, on 10/10/2007, -2/+2Somehow, I doubt this will make all the privileged, upper-class Jewish kids stop wearing their Che T-shirts.
http://capmag.com/article.asp?id=4451 - jon3k, on 10/11/2007, -5/+5...
BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHA - Mosatii, on 10/11/2007, -10/+9Every time I see a kid with a Che Guevara shirt I laugh to myself, and proceed to put down the urge to kill said kid.
- DatoeDakari, on 10/11/2007, -2/+1Viva la revolución!
- BostonMa, on 10/11/2007, -2/+1Not fighting for ww3, death not shrouded in mystery, (claims of the first 30 seconds of video.)
He was killed during a clash with the army in the Bolivian jungle as he attempted to spread the Cuban revolution to that country. With pic:
http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/shared/spl/hi/pop_ups/03/world_parading_the_dead/html/3.stm - RaggTopp, on 10/11/2007, -8/+7How is this any different than PRO-Guevara propaganda? I mean really? This contradicts a lot of information out there.
- o0adam0o, on 10/10/2007, -2/+0Motorcycle Diaries, great film about Che before he became revolutionary.
Check it out. - Charleysancy, on 10/10/2007, -3/+1You do realize chinese slaves probably make your clothes, your kids toys...
