Forty-two years ago, October 8, 1967, Che Guevara was captured. One day later, October 9, 1967, he executed a 'secret' by a Bolivian sergeant Mario Teran. Argentina men mixed Irish and Basque were killed, in which he is not a male was shot, in a school classroom clay walls.
Guevara rare figure. The figure was reasonable. Argentina but he was a hero of Cuba. He with asthma, frail, but instead led the guerrilla. He is a foreigner (Argentina) who had been a minister in a different country (Cuba). Indeed, he received a special citizenship status of his friend Fidel Castro. He is also an official of a sovereign country (Cuba), who then returned to the forest to lead the revolution in other countries (Bolivia). Picture, the 'diragadiamkan' by Alberto Korda was, a photograph of the most widely reproduced and reprinted throughout the world. He was a Guerrilla Heroico. He is the 'hero' lintasbangsa.
Che, klandestein intellectual figure as well as extreme guerrilla commander. So he pulled. For the Cuban people, who suddenly became more moderate after winning the revolution, Che was deemed too assertive; difficult to compromise. Because of that, to borrow said Goenawan Mas (in a marginal note in 1978), he was not a human being bland. He was recipient of confrontation.

Face Che attached to the chest teenagers and youths in Jakarta, in Bangkok, Kuala Lumpur, in Frankfurt. Except in Poland, which prohibits state Che's face made as any design icon, Che's face embedded in many vehicles: fashion, souvenirs, as well as monuments. In fact, Che's face tattooed motive.
When in 1997 Castro decided to dig a grave in Bolivia and Che's bones moved to Santa Clara in Cuba in a grand military parade, re-discover the world as Che. World re-chew it. Who was Che: son of a bourgeois family against his own class?
Slowly, he became an icon of resistance, confrontation, too, some of radicalism in the act. Not just about Marxism or communism, but also in the world in different polar, about democracy. On the one hand, Che is a symbol for minorities, on the other it is used as the icon of the majority. So he was forbidden to become an icon of capitalism in disguise. His legendary become commodities. In fact, when the economy melimbung Cuba, about Che souvenirs is a source of foreign exchange.
Indeed, there is ambiguity there. A similar ambiguous when Castro 'forced leave' Che CIA hunted in the interior of Bolivia. Castro, who began to compromise with the two 'kings' of the world chess time: Moscow and Washington, did not want his plans fall apart because the passion that goes beyond confrontation Che fairness. Castro had ambiguous because he was already considered 'sissy', the Che who enjoys virility and action.

Now, it's not the 1960's, when the ideological struggle is an exciting game. For the majority of people now, political ideology is the past. Ideology of today is consumerism. Because it's money became Fuhrer. This linear with the current process to make contemporary society into a society that these terms are ambiguous softer than munafikisme.
True, that is among us, that when the T-shirt with a full array of human design action, masculinity, and the determination of Che because he was motivated by the spirit. We want to emulate it. Or had not you?
People who weave this paper was often in fear of that ambiguity. A fiery but easily extinguished. Passionate in laziness. Because he was not Che. He, and perhaps you, is a natural human majority. Therefore there is little Che.
He, Ernesto 'Che' Guevara, was an unnatural figure, who lived in ketakwajaran. Again ambiguity talk: Naturally and ketakwajaran is a way of life to be noble.

Right on this day, 42 years ago, humans were terciduk unnatural. The next day he was shot dead.
This is not about the immortality of my life, I'm long vigil of the immortality of the revolution, Che said to Mario Teran, the executor.
Come Shoot me, you're just going to kill a man, said Che. And, he was gone for good, as presented to us a reminder of the spirit to continue to act against an unjust regime. He was right, immortality is a gift to the revolution of the world, although only light emanating from a pin picture itself. Did not the revolution not only about communism or a coup? Fight myself not to become a man in fetters munafikisme ambiguous and is also a revolution, right?
e quiet.
