I don't know where you are from, but if you say what you say about Che, probably you don't see the real world, and probably you would never understand why he thought what he thought, and why he lived the way he did. There's a lot to say about him, but what we cannot say is that he was just a murderer. Napoleon was a murderer too, if you think about it, but History knows him because of his intelligence and because he was very smart. Che Guevara must be seen as a man with ideals, who fought for making them real, and as a person who never corrupted himself. I just dare you to think about a person who has or had ideals and is/was peaceful (besides Gandhi and M.L. King).

Oh, there are millions of peaceful persons with ideals who actually make the world a better place: nameless entrepreneurs, capitalists, workers in private companies, or people in charities and even NGOs, but you don't wear them on t-shirts, or read their biographies, for the simple reason, that they don’t kill anyone. They may not be on first name terms with "History" (why the Capital letter "H", I wonder. Have we read too much Hegel, hmm?), but they sure did more good.

Ah, but we see measurable progress. We are ready to admit that Che Guevara was a murderer. But he wasn't just that! Oh yes, he did kill people, but he did so with wit, idealism, a dash of daring-do, and what's more, he did kill with charm! Can you beat that, Napoleon, Stalin, Hitler!?

He was put in charge of the Cuban bank, Cuban industrialization, and Cuban land reform. They were all colossal failures, of course, because they all were true to the utopian daydreams of communism, which is to say they didn't work. Indeed, he destroyed the Cuban economy and impoverished the Cuban people.
