If Fidel Castro and Che Guevara were not firends when Che was alive but instead enemies,who would have?

That question doesn't make sense since there would be no reason for Che and Castro to fight each other. If they fought each other they would be different people. It would depend when though because after Castro was established as leader of Cuba, he had his own army. Che joined a revolutionary army in Equador after giving up his post as cuban finance minister (i think...?) that was defeated resulting in che's death. I think Che was a better guerrilla fighter as Castro was more of leader than a soldier. Still its a moot point.

I guess to an extent I do, not the communist part but rather the part of him not fearing change and thinking he could make a difference, whther it was good or bad in the end.  Here is his short bio.\n\nGuevara, Che \n \n \n(Ernesto Guevara)  (chā gāvä´rä, ārnĕs´tō) , 1928—67, Cuban revolutionary and political leader, b. Argentina. Trained as a physician at the Univ. of Buenos Aires, he took part (1952) in riots against the dictator Juan Perón in Argentina, joined agitators in Bolivia, and worked in a leper colony. In 1953 he went to Guatemala, joined the leftist regime of Jacobo Arbenz Guzmán, and when Arbenz was overthrown (1954) fled to Mexico, where he met Fidel Castro and other Cuban rebels. Guevara became Castro's chief lieutenant soon after the rebel invasion of Cuba in 1956, in which he proved to be a resourceful guerrilla leader. As president of the national bank after the fall (Jan., 1959) of Fulgencio Batista he was instrumental in cutting Cuba's traditional ties with the United States and in directing the flow of trade to the Communist bloc. He served (1961—65) as minister of industry. At heart a revolutionary rather than an administrator, he left Cuba in 1965 to foster revolutionary activity in the Congo and other countries. In 1967, directing an ineffective guerrilla movement in Bolivia, he was wounded, captured, and executed by government troops. Guevara wrote Guerrilla Warfare (1961), Man and Socialism in Cuba (1967), Reminiscences of the Cuban Revolutionary War (1968), and The African Dream (2001), a forthright account of the failed Congo rebellion.

I never relized that before, I mean helping castro getting elected nearly caused WWIII in 1963 with soviet missile crisis, Giving Saddam bio weapons in the '80's causing the current war, oh and helping the Taliban fight the Soviets in the '80's as well, who knows maby the russians would have wiped them out if we didn't supply them guns and HEAT-SEEKING MISSILES i.e. the stinger rocket launcher. I think our next "friend" will be a middle eastern or latin american rebel group that comes back to bite us in the ass.

I read in an article recently that the Cuban revolution was funded by the Soviet Union more than other revolutions in that part of the world.  As a result, they were much better off until recently.\n\nChe Guevara was a great figure of that era.\n\nThe revolutionary government (Castro) was funded by the Soviets, SORRY!  By the way, the CIA was the laughingstock of the world after the Bay of Pigs.  Take what they say with a grain of salt.

In the book written by John L Anderson he claims that Che was killed by a  Cuban Ameican CIA trianed individual named Felix Rodriguez. That book is very well reearched so I am proned to believe the author's claim. Do I think his death was justified?  He was rather ruthless at times, but that is not for me to decide. I guess you can say that by living the revolutionary life, he had to know his end would not be pretty. I will say this, he did not die a coward.

We get a lot of government propaganda regarding Cuba so it's tough to know the absolute truth. I do know the big stink was caused back in the late fifties because Eisenhower's administration refused to help Castro throw out the organized crime figures.   Castro was turned away when he came to us for help (kind of like Northern Ireland was).  Castro then turned to the USSR and they were more than happy to give him the arms to throw the American mafia out!  From this point, the U/S has confused the issue and clouded the facts. Now supposedly Castro is "evil".  Who knows the truth, we sure aren't getting any these days.

Cuba stopped invading other countries when the USSR ran out of money.  Since they are no longer a threat to anybody but themselves, there's no point invading them.

The Cuban Revolution was the overthrow of Fulgencio Batista’s regime by the 26th of July Movement and the establishment of a new Cuban government led by Fidel Castro in the 1950s. It began with the assault on the Moncada Barracks on July 26, 1953, and ended on January 1, 1959, when Batista was driven from the country and the cities Santa Clara and Santiago de Cuba were seized by rebels, led by Che Guevara and Fidel Castro's surrogates Raul Castro and Huber Matos, respectively. The term "Cuban Revolution" is also used to refer to the social revolution after the overthrow in 1959 to present and the adoption of Marxist principles by the new Cuban Government.

What is your nation?\nAnyway, i don't think that Fidel or Cuba are threatening anybody. They are just a pain in the butt for US. However i do not see a Cuban invasion to the states in the near future....Maybe tomorrow, when i'll be less tired.

Dillinger is right, why would we go to war with Spain?  If we were ticking down the list of countries to invade, I think Spain would be pretty low down.  Again, we are pretty decent friends with Spain.

They don't hate Cubans, just Castro. He took over and seized property from all of the US businesses and aided the Russians during the Cold War, letting them put nuclear missiles on Cuba, which wasn't exactly a very friendly gesture.

He was Fidel Castro's right hand man.  He was a communist and was instrumental in Cuba severing ties with the US.

There is NO doubt we have taken his rule for granted.  And there is no doubt the state dept incorrectly thinks there will be a "crack in the armor".  Let's face it they haven't done a very good job on foreign policy.\n\nI believe Castro's brother Raul would be the new dictator.\n\nI actually believe we should normalize relations now to martyr Castro making his successor less powerful.

Very interesting question...I would be surprised if Hitler was in heaven and if Mother Teresa were not.
