Cuba was a nation of 6.5 million in 1959. Within three months in power, Castro and Che had shamed the Nazi prewar incarceration and murder rate. One defector claims that Che signed 500 death warrants, another says over 600. Cuban journalist Luis Ortega, who knew Che as early as 1954, writes in his book "Yo Soy El Che!" that Guevara sent 1,897 men to the firing squad. In his book "Che Guevara: A Biography," Daniel James writes that Che himself admitted to ordering "several thousand" executions during the first few years of the Castro regime.

Obviously no one knows how many died at the hands of Guevara, but he was responsible for a large number. He most definitely WAS NOT the heroic freedom fighter everyone is making him out to be. In his day while alive, he was every bit as ruthless and despicable as Osama bin Laden. The only major difference is that Guevara was a Communist terrorist while bin Laden is a Muslim terrorist.
