Okay...okay...I know we are about to stop agreeeing
because:
1- The situation in Cuba before him (at least admit this) wasnt good(not saying that now is , please)...actually Cuba lived in a terrible governemnt of Fulgencio Batista who only did one thing: exploited the cuban people...
2- SocialismCommunism was apparently a good tentative to stop the capitalism effects...so I can see this revolution as a original even here...
3- Guevara /Castro were identified as revolutionaries/heroes (and still are believe me --most Guevara not Fidel) in Latin America because they seemed to represent an alternative to capitalism represented by U.S. and Europe...
