How FARC got Tricked

It turns out that the Colombian military used a bit of trickery to rescue Ms. Betancourt and the rest of the hostages. The soldiers showed up wearing Che Guevara tee shirts (not bought from here I guess). The FARC members figured the soldiers were simply Barack Obama supporters and got into the helicopter.

A quote you should find really disturbing

"To send men to the firing squad, judicial proof is unnecessary…These procedures are an archaic bourgeois detail. This is a revolution! And a revolutionary must become a cold killing machine motivated by pure hate. We must create the pedagogy of The Wall!" -- Che Guevara

I never get the whole "Che" thing. The guy was a murderous bastard yet stupid college kids love wearing his tee shirts. And now the laudatory movies about him.

What did Orwell say? "He who controls the past . . ."
