PS: Idiots who where the stupid Che shirts should really learn more about him. And no, the new movie does not count. Killing millions for thinking different than you is not something one should be honored for after they died.

But push comes to shove when you think a best friend of your worst enemy preparing a launch pad for missiles.

Sad part is that history is repeating itself. Russian (instead of the USSR) is now sending warships to Cuba loaded with weaponry and missiles.

To be fair on Sam, both "spelt" and "spelled" are acceptable in British English.

While not necessarily millions, the joy of him watching the killing has been well documented within his own diary and through accounts of others in his presents.

While not as extreme as Stalin, he was a blood thirsty man seeking power. He has a role in Cuba, but wasn't in charge.

The problem is that now we have pop culture movies and praise of this man greatly distorting his past. They tell it from the viewpoint of Che thoughts versus what he actually did.

The sad part is, many in Hollywood support his thoughts. They support Fidel Castro and other communists. People who would never have given these Hollywood types the freedom they enjoy in the US and in many other places in the world.]]>Feb 12th 2009 5:09PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/02/12/cuba-launches-its-own-linux-variant-fidel-reportedly-cool-with/http://www.engadget.com/2009/02/12/cuba-launches-its-own-linux-variant-fidel-reportedly-cool-with/That begs the question. Why were others in Che's presents? If other people WERE in his presents, doesn't that make him killing people, you know at least somewhat justifiable? Or did he get people as presents?
