    was ches choice of Masetti the correct one to lead the revolution into argentina. i personally think his choice was an extremely bad one. which seems completely out of character for him.

    I agree with you.. not only was masetti not qualified for the job of leading and organizing a guerrilla movment agianst one of the strongest latin amercian countries but he also chose the wrong location for the start of the revolt, he chose a swampy area whcih had few peasents and could not provide cover which the guerrillas needed for their type of warfare.

    so making the scope of this topic greater, did che just really start to lose the plot so to speak and just try and create the conditions for a revulotion that he could finally be involved in. i'm not saying that his intention was not pure, becuase i see him as probably the only person in my limited knowledge that was truely communist, in his every thought was the greater good of the populous. but it just seems to me he wanted to die fighting a revolution in south america and became one eyed about it.

    well, guevara was never fully open to new ideas...he clung on to his idea of guerilla warfare, evven after it failed so many times....he also refused to realise taht the only reason the cuban revolution was successful was because it was so well thought out by castro - that's not to say that che didn't contribute, but that left to his own devices, he would've failed....as he proved himself
    he may have had pure intentions, but he was far too idealistic
