Damn, but this Che Guevara guy sure is is catching grief this week?
Some Glenn Beck video intransigence:
“Be it known: Che Guevara had a very bloody (and typically cowardly) hand in one of the major anti-insurgency wars on this continent. Eighty percent of these anti-communist guerrillas were executed on the spot upon capture, a Che specialty. For my book I interviewed several of the lucky former rebels who managed to escape the slaughter. “We fought with the fury of cornered beasts,” I titled the chapter, using the phrase one used to describe their desperate freedom fight against the Soviet occupation of Cuba through their proxies Fidel Castro and Che Guevara.”
Humberto, are there any English books in print on the Escambray Rebellion?
our friend Enrique Encinosa’s Unvanquished, an invaluable source. In Spanish get La Guerra Olvidada and Cuba en Guerra, also by Enrique Encinosa.
