"After having overseen the firing squads that followed the Communist victory he helped secure in Cuba, and after a stint running the country’s central bank, Guevara suddenly vanished in 1965, sent by Fidel Castro to organize revolutions abroad." The paper even managed to blame him for the economic crisis in Venezuela today. Absent from the article are references to CIA-formed militias and death squads which were facing communist guerrillas around the world. Also, the Cuban revolution was the least bloody revolution, in relative terms. The regime rarely resorted to executions. I favorably compare that regime to any of US-supported/armed autoacracies in Jordan, Saudi Arabia, Zaire, UAE, Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman, Morocco, etc.
