Subject: RE: BS: Fidel retires
True, Guest. It is unfortunate. I wonder what it would have been like had this man stayed in Cuba. I always had the feeling that for Fidel it was about gaining power, and for Che it was about revolution--in the sense of 'freeing' farmers/workers from oppressive conditions. In my heart of hearts, I think had he stayed in Cuba he'd have met a similar end. But the gun would have been fired by someone closer to him than American special forces-trained Bolivian soldiers. I suppose we'll never know.
