Why would he? He was a disciplined guerilla who wouldn't have given his captors any such pleasure.

"I'm worth more alive to you, than dead." why do you cover it up?

"I'm worth more alive to you, than dead." why do you cover it up? Those weren't his last words. In fact, that sounds like something a capitalist would say, as it is capitalists who like to exploit a situation for personal profit.

Cos he surrendered and said: `Don't shoot, i'm Che, I'm worth more alive to you than dead'. He was wounded and then captured, and I doubt he would have said such a thing, knowing what a victory it would give to the Bolivians.

actually, all the sources i've heard cited said his words were more along the lines of ''shoot me you cowards, you can kill the revolutionary but not the revolution''.

I mean, hey, anything's possible if you imagine hard enough. On the other hand, he might have said: `You can kill me, but you can't kill a toothache' or `Don't kill me, or I'll eat your liver'. I think this is most likely what occured: Che: `Hey mang, why for you point the gun at my head, mang?' Executioner: (Slowly cocks pistol). Che: `No, PLEEEESE AMEEGO!!, WHO WEEEL LOOK AFTER MY BOYFRIENDS, MANG?' Executioner: `Well, Mr Che, you had ample opportunity not to be a revolutionary, but you waved your rights when you decided to massacre a few thousand landowners for the crime of paying minimum wage, or probably something even pettier.' `PLEEEEESE AMEEGO!!! PLEEEE....' (bang!) Executioner: (embarassed) `Oh heck, i didn't know it was loaded, can we try another interrogation technique next time?'

He was a white Argentine, not a racist stereotype. if che was just a revolutionary, as he claimed, why do you guys give him sainthood? surely he's no better than you? isn't everyone supposed to be equal? Oh that's right, he wrote a couple incoherant books. Oh and he killed more people than you. Also, he was handsome when he died. But if it was Castro who died young, or Mao, you'de be supporting them instead. Yet Che was a little Pol Pot even before he achieved real power. Imagine what would happen when he got into power. You wouldn't support an ugly old murderer, why?

If I was some immoral leftist i might support him too. it is perhaps rather romantic riding around on a motorbike from country to country, ignoring national boundaires, to spread revolution, and shoot people, er, i think.
