"The U.S. is the great enemy of mankind!" raved Ernesto "Che" Guevara in 1961. "Against those hyenas there is no option but extermination. We will bring the war to the imperialist enemies' very home, to his places of work and recreation. The imperialist enemy must feel like a hunted animal wherever he moves. Thus we'll destroy him! We must keep our hatred against them (the U.S.) alive and fan it to paroxysms!"
Compared to Che Guevara, Ahmadinejad sounds like the Dalai Lama.
On November 17, 1962, J Edgar Hoover's FBI discovered that Che Guevara's bombast had substance. They infiltrated and cracked a plot by Cuban agents that targeted Macy's, Gimbel's, Bloomindales and Manhattan's Grand Central Terminal with a dozen incendiary devices and 500 kilos of TNT. The holocaust was set to go off the following week, the day after Thanksgiving. Che Guevara was the head of Cuba's "Foreign Liberation Department" at the time.
A little perspective: for their March 2004 Madrid subway blasts, all 10 of them, that killed and maimed almost 2000 people, al-Qaida used a grand total of 100 kilos of TNT. Castro and Che's agents planned to set off five times that explosive power in the some of the biggest department stores on earth, all packed to suffocation and pulsing with holiday cheer on the year's biggest shopping day.
A month earlier (during what came to be known as the Cuban Missile Crisis) Fidel Castro and Che Guevara had salivated over the prospect of a much more satisfying holocaust. "Say hello to my little friends!" they dreamt of yelling at the Yankee “hyenas,” right before the mushroom clouds. But for the prudence of the Butcher of Budapest (Nikita Khrushchev) they might have pulled it off. Despite the diligent work of Camelot court scribes and their ever-eager acolytes in the MSM, Publishing and Hollywood, most serious analysts conclude that Fidel and Che's genocidal fantasy was a much bigger factor in Khrushchev's decision to yank the missiles from Cuba than Kennedy's utterly bogus bluster, threats and "blockade".
"The solutions to the world's problems lie behind the Iron Curtain," stressed Ernesto “Che" Guevara who often signed his correspondence with the moniker "Stalin II". "If the nuclear missiles had remained we would have fired them against the heart of the U.S. including New York City," he boasted. "The victory of socialism is well worth millions of atomic victims."
During recent interviews of Obama campaign workers on Houston's Fox TV station, the offices of two Texas Obama campaign volunteers ( including a precinct captain and head of the "Houston Obama Leadership Team") were found prominently decorated with Che Guevara images, against the backdrop of Cuban flags. The MSM kept mum, but the conservative blogoshere spread the story. Intrepid blogger Henry Gomez (Babalu Blog), uncovered 15 different pages of Che Guevara well-wishers on the official Obama campaign site.
Two days after the Fox TV airing the Obama campaign finally went on record and in a terse statement described the Houston office posters as "inappropriate." Inappropriate? Yes, and in the same league as cross-burning or swastika-painting are “inappropriate.” This is not trivial.
Ernesto "Che" Guevara was second in command, chief executioner, and chief KGB liaison for a regime that outlawed elections and private property. This regime's KGB-supervised police -- employing the midnight knock and the dawn raid among other devices -- rounded up and jailed more political prisoners as a percentage of population than Stalin's and executed more people (out of a population of 6.4 million) in its first three years in power than Hitler's executed (out of a population of 70 million) in it's first six.
But don't misinterpret Che Guevara’s bluster with actual bravery. His stock in trade was the mass-murder of defenseless men and boys -- bound and gagged is how he demanded his victims. On Oct. 8 1967, upon finally encountering armed and determined enemies, Che quickly dropped his fully-loaded weapons and whimpered: "Don't Shoot! I'm Che! I'm worth more to you alive than dead!"
Che Guevara's regime also shattered -- through executions, jailings, mass larceny and exile -- virtually every family on the island of Cuba. Many opponents of the Cuban regime qualify as the longest-suffering political prisoners in modern history, having suffered prison camps, forced labor and torture chambers for a period THREE TIMES as long in Che Guevara's Gulag as Alexander Solzhenytzin suffered in Stalin's Gulag. But please, please, please don’t bother looking for any History Channel, NPR, or 20/20 interviews with these heroes. They were victims’ of the Left’s premier poster boys, you see.
The regime Che Guevara co-founded stole the savings and property of 6.4 million citizens, made refugees of 20 per cent of the population from a nation formerly deluged with immigrants and whose citizens had achieved a higher standard of living than those residing in half of Europe.
Under Che Guevara's rule "Change" indeed came to Cuba.
Imagine -- say -- Huckabee campaign volunteers in -- say -- 'Possum Gulch Arkansas, discovered with their offices displaying David Duke (who despite his looney ravings has killed no one, and who -- as far as I know -- has never advocated the nuclear extermination of the U.S. population) posters.
Do you think there might be a media hullabaloo, with the attendant harrumphing and extortion of apologies by Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson?
Do you think that a campaign spokersperson's lame exculpation of these Duke posters as "inappropriate" would suffice and end the matter?
We all know better. The orgy of self-flagellation, groveling, hoop-jumping, and whimpering (not that they would have gotten it) demanded from any Republican candidate would have made Dom Imus' recent antics look like Ollie North in front of the Iran-Contra hearings.
Now, what might Ernesto “Che” Guevara himself thought of Obama’s campaign and his campaign workers (volunteers and otherwise)? His own writings and utterings give a strong clue:
"The black is indolent and a dreamer; spending his meager wage on frivolity or drink; the European has a tradition of work and saving,"
“South American peasants are simply little animals.”
“Mexicans are a rabble of illiterate Indians.” We can only guess what he had said about the press or the Democrats.
NOTE:
The author came to the U S from Cuba.
Che, Stalin, Hitler, Saddam, Mohammed, Pol Pot, just a few of the planet’s ‘popular’ mass-murderers! Pop Cult megalomaniacs thrive on a silent press!
you know, of course, that the pictures have already come down...and if a spin cycle is need to wash this dirty laundry (considering the MSM proclivity for loving, therefore ignoring in print and on air, all things un-American)....Hussein will claim it is an overzealous immature college student who put up the signs without approval of the Hussein for President campaign organization.....
The Che pictures are disgusting...
The other picture has a(nother?) Che flag on a regular sheetrock wall, and (another or the same) woman sitting at the desk.
The place was wallpapered with Che flags.

Let’s see. Obama is the next JFK. JFK was a mortal enemy of Castro and Che. His opposition to Castro was a primary inspiration for Oswald to kill JFK. So, naturally, the next JFK has a staff that idolizes Communist Cuba.
And, to think, these people are trying to get positions in the government.
HOW DO YOU FREE OBAMA FROM MARIA?
Tune: "How Do You Solve a Problem Like Maria?"
She's on TV and there we see
"Obama in '08";
So far, so good, but then we see
How else she decorates:
Guevara's mug, that brutal thug,
And a Cuban flag--oh, great!
And all of this is sticking to Obama!
She's always seen campaigning,
But her presence is a pain;
She's always doing one more thing
We have to then explain.
I hate to have to say it,
But I think it's very plain:
Maria's not an asset to Obama!
Each time she's seen as being with our staff,
Maria makes a gaffe!
How do you free Obama from Maria?
How do you stop the news from being spread?
How do you find a word that means Maria?
A Commie campaigner! A Bolshevik babe! A Red!
Many a Marxist goal you'd like to further,
Many a thing to tax across the land;
But how do you take away
The picture of her and Che?
How can you let her ruin what you planned?
Oh, how do you free Obama from Maria?
How do you make a moonbat understand?
When she's answering the phone,
Chanting, "Revolución!"
This is maybe not the image that we need.
I'm afraid our "Si, se puede!"
Could be changed and even made a
Slogan saying, "Yes, the struggle will succeed!"
She is campaign suicide,
Driving voters from our side;
She could throw our poor Barack beneath the bus.
She's an early spring surprise
From the Workers' Paradise.
She's rebelling! She's revolting! She's with us!
How do you free Obama from Maria?
How do you stop the news from being spread?
How do you find a word that means Maria?
A Commie campaigner! A Bolshevik babe! A Red!
Many a Marxist goal you'd like to further,
Many a thing to tax across the land;
But how do you take away
The picture of her and Che?
How can you let her ruin what you planned?
Oh, how do you free Obama from Maria?
How do you make a moonbat understand?
