"I know you are here to kill me. Shoot coward you're onlygoing to kill a man"
Failure in BoliviaWorking class Bolivians were happy with
capitalism.
The hungry eyes of common people made him mad.
Quite impossible to get victory of socialist revolution in a foreign country.
Without food and medicines for a year wandering in jungles, made the guerillas half dead.
The sun still shinesHe is lord of modern revolution.
He was god for common poor people.
The icon of anti capitalism & social liberation.
Hero of third world socialist nations.
The greatest inspiring leader for the youths of all time.
His holy sacrifice
A saint or sinner?Che was always known to be a
str ict discipl inarian and he was almost known to be tyrannical, but that is how one should be when one is a warr ior of a revolution.
Somebody describes Che as "the ki l l ing machine" but from my point of view he just fol lowed Gandhij iee's words "do or die"
A man , many qualities.A great revolutionary. A true politician.An awesome author.A kind hearted physician.A military theorist.An inspiring leader of world history.
