Notable & Diabolical: "Che" Compared to St. Francis of Assisi

“For us, "Che" Guevara was a St. Francis of Politics, because he walked away from power in Cuba and starving for justice, he went off into the jungle in Congo and then in Bolivia to try to liberate greater Latin America." Frei Betto, Quoted in the Tehran Times, October 6, 2007


Who else but Frei Betto, the cassocked heir to the Inquisition and seller of indulgences to the greatest mass murderers that this continent has ever known, would think to compare the most beloved of saints to the most reprobate of sinners?

More than a wretched sinner, I would say that Guevara was a spawn of Satan on Earth....
As per Betto, well.... What else could we expect from him.
Interestingly enough, Guevara's children had a fall out with the Iranians, falling off their train.....
