Book Reviews of Exposing the Real Che Guevara: And the Useful Idiots Who Idolize Him
Book Review: the idiot whose cashing in on che guevara
Summary: 1 Stars
Apparently here lies a book which seems to be a cash cow for Fontova.Has one idea and runs with it over exaggerating between fact and whats seems to be his personel opinion.Im not suggesting CHE was a sort of robin hood but he did set out to do what he thought was right,only until Fidel contradicted his intentions over CUBA.Please pick up CHE A REVOLUTIONARY LIFE BY JON LEE ANDERSON.
Summary of Exposing the Real Che Guevara: And the Useful Idiots Who Idolize Him
The perfect conservative contrast to the upcoming movie about Che.Hollywood, Madison Avenue, and the mainstream media celebrate Ernesto "Che" Guevara as a saint, a sex symbol, and a selfless martyr. But their ideas about Che - whose face adorns countless T-shirts and posters - are based on the lies of Fidel Castro's murderous dictatorship.
Che's hipster fans are classic "useful idiots," the name Stalin gave to foolish Westerners who parroted his lies about communism. And their numbers will only increase after a new biopic is released this fall, starring Benicio Del Toro.
But as Humberto Fontova reveals in this myth-shattering book, Che was actually a bloodthirsty executioner, a military bumbler, a coward, and a hypocrite. In fact, Che can be called the godfather of modern terrorism.
Fontova reveals:
. How he longed to destroy New York City with nuclear missiles.
. How he persecuted gays, blacks, and religious people.
. How he loved material wealth and private luxuries, despite his image as an ascetic.
Are Che fans like Angelina Jolie, Jesse Jackson, Carlos Santana, and Johnny Depp too ignorant to realize they've been duped? Or too anti-American to care?
