FULL HEADER:

Hollywood’s Benicio Del Toro Eulogizes Che Guevara in Havana but Denounces President Trump as “Cruel Monster!”

So benny, you feel close to chez idealogically? Like you want to go on murderous rages and hate black people? That kind of kinship? Perhaps you and car-loss sant-anny could start a mutual admiration club. Might as well include pol pot, lenin, stalin, mao and a 'hole' bunch of other miscreants. Follywood fidiots.

This isn’t the real Che, a piece of work, but the idol Che.

So Benico likes a guy that wanted to see all the gays and undesireables exterminated?

Huh... that sounds more like Hitler than Trump. Does the LGBTQIABC coalition know about this?

"Exposing the Real Che Guevara and the Useful Idiots who Idolize Him," by Humberto Fontova is a great book.

Here is the entire ob-ed by Humberto Fontova as it appears on Townhall.com

“The film’s (“Che,” directed by Steven Soderbergh, produced by Benicio Del Toro in partnership with Stalinist Cuba’s propaganda ministry) production crew spent six years in Cuba  investigating everything about Che Guevara." (NOT Miami, please note, where people who knew Che can talk truthfully about him without fear of firing squads and torture chambers!) “I remember sitting with Che’s wife Aleida who told me “it’s not important if you resemble Che physically, the important thing is to understand the person. ... And Che Guevara’s person educated me about my roots of being a Latin-American and a Puerto-Rican.” (Benicio Del Toro in an interview with Vladimir Putin’s propaganda organ RT during the Havana Film Festival last week.) 

Nothing new here, amigos. In fact:

“I’d like to dedicate this award to the man himself, Che Guevara!  I wouldn't be here without Che Guevara, and through all the awards the movie gets you'll have to pay your respects to the man!...Ideologically I feel very close to Che." Thus gushed Benicio Del Toro (made a multi-millionaire mostly by American audiences) while accepting the ‘best actor’ award at the Cannes Film Festival for his role glorifying Che Guevara (who denounced Americans as “hyenas fit only for extermination!”)

But on the other hand:

”I don’t understand what’s going on with the United States government… It’s cruel. What’s the morality inside this monster (Donald Trump) for separating children from their parents? I don’t know. The bottom line: this has to stop.” (Benicio del Toro earlier this year.) 

To be fair, who can blame Benicio Del Toro for being a trifle biased in favor of a movie he co-produced? So let’s look for more “objective” sources.   

“Learn some history! The movie is Che. Go!..Learn!” (Stephen Colbert while hosting Benicio Del Toro.)

“A great piece of work. This movie is based on history. It went to the source. If you own the poster and t-shirt you owe it to yourself to go learn about the man.” (MSNBC’s Willie Geist while hosting Benicio Del Toro.”) 

“I still have my Che Guevara poster. Che Guevara was a freedom fighter.” (Bob Beckel, former FoxNews commentator.)

“Dammit This Guy Is Cool!” was the title of an interview the BBC conducted with Benicio Del Toro upon the celebrated his movies release. “I hear of this guy, and he’s got a cool name, Che Guevara!” Del Toro told the BBC. “Groovy name, groovy man, groovy politics! So I came across a picture of Che, smiling, in fatigues, I thought, ‘Dammit, this guy is cool-looking!’”
 
 Right here Benicio Del Toro, who fulfilled an obvious fantasy by starring as Che Guevara in the four-and-a-half-hour movie he also co-produced, probably revealed the inspiration (and daunting intellectual exertion) of most Che fans worldwide, including Beckel and Colbert.

In addition, upon the communist hagiography’s screening by the American Film Institute at Grauman’s Chinese Theater in 2008, the families of the thousands of Che Guevara’s murder victim’s where gratuitously and cheekily insulted: 

“Che Guevara is a hugely controversial figure,” laughed Lou Diamond Phillips who played the role of Bolivian Communist party leader Mario Monje. The cameras in front of Grauman’s then turned to “Che” himself, Benicio Del Toro (oh so sensitive to separation of children from parents on the U.S. border, remember?) who snickered along with Phillips. “I don’t know how this film is gonna go over in Miami” then smirked their co-star Joaquim de Almeida while cackles from the ultra-hipster, ultra-sensitive Hollywood cast erupted in the background.  

And all this in Hollywood, the world capitol of ultra-sensitivity, where an off-handed quip about a black or a gay, about slavery or lynching can end a career. Where “bullying” can take the form of prolonged eye-contact or a sneer. But where, apparently, public laughter and open ridicule of the grief of thousands of Cuban-Americans whose loved-ones were tortured and murdered passes for humor. 

Miami, as you might guess, is home to most of the wives, mothers, daughters, sons and brothers of the thousands of defenseless men (and boys and even some women) murdered by the regime Che Guevara co-founded. 

 “The U.S. is the great enemy of mankind!” raved the terrorist who Soderbergh and Del Toro glorified and who got a standing ovation in Hollywood with both Robert Redford’s “The Motorcycle Diaries” and Soderberg’s “Che.”  “Against those hyenas (Americans) there is no option but extermination! The imperialist enemy (Americans) must feel like a hunted animal wherever he moves. Thus we’ll destroy him! We must keep our hatred (against the U.S.) alive and fan it to paroxysm! If the nuclear missiles had remained (in Cuba) we would have fired them against the heart of the U.S. including New York City.”

As usual, most of the people Che Guevara craved to incinerate viewed protests against the Che movie (mostly in Miami) as a quaint and silly obsession by hyper-sensitive, loudmouthed and even ungrateful Cuban-Americans. The film’s reception in Castro’s Cuba was vastly different from the one in Miami –but quite similar to the one in Hollywood. 

"Che" film gets thumbs up in Cuba," ran the headline from CNN's Havana Bureau upon an earlier Del Toro’s red-carpet visits to the totalitarian Castro-Family-Fiefdom. Benicio Del Toro, who stars as Che, was in the Cuban capital at the Havana Film Festival that week presenting the movie he co-produced. The lengthy biopic of the Argentinean revolutionary won acclaim from among those who know his story best."


 Indeed, but the acclaim came because those "who knew his story best" (Castro and his Stalinist henchmen, the film's chief mentors and veritable co-producers) saw that their directives had been followed slavishly, that Che's (genuine) story was completely absent from the movie. This, of course, “seemed lost” on CNN, the first network to be bestowed a Havana Bureau by the film’s Stalinist, terror-sponsoring co-producers.

It must take a lot of "Method" training to be able to realistically portray a cowardly, sadistic nihilist like Che Guevara. But Benicio would be the man to pull it off.

Then again, maybe he wouldn't be acting ...

A lot of sick Stalinist f***s in Hollyweird. Just like their bloodthirsty, mass-murdering, psychotic hero, Che, they serve Satan, too. Remember that every time they open their mouths to opine about politics.

I just saw a documentary on Venezuela and they couldn't bring themselves to utter the word "Socialism" - they blamed populism and at the end said that Trump was doing the same thing.

The left is truly delusional and insane.

Incredible— the ‘che’ worship. Who will not accept that it was Fidel Castro himself who gave che’s whereabouts in Bolivia away to the Bolivian Federales. Castro had a see eye ehhh contact cutout to deliver the message.

Aside from that, it is well documented that che’ was a complete psychopath, who loved to kill- up close and bloody and performed many of the thousands of executions himself, including the execution of a 12 year old boy. Through confused instructions Castro gave the directorship of the Cuban National Bank and the economy to Che’!! Who destroyed what little was left.

Humberto Fontova is eloquent and has first hand witnesses to the psychopathic Che’. Personally, close family friend (a “roommate” of Fidel’s at the Jesuit private High School)— as a young man witness Che’ shoot his father in the head on the street in front of their house, when his father kept saying, truthfully “there are no guns in this house— we have no guns here”. Which was true, as his son explained— the were all under the floorboards of a mtn getaway cabin, and we used them to fight those bastards.

Che’ was simply a psychopath, who are commonly drawn to “revolutions” as covering events and opportunities for mass killings, and in this case with an “official office”.

It reminds me of a joke of many years ago.

An American and a Soviet are discussing politics. “We have freedom of speech in the United States,” said the American. “I can go to the White House and say ‘The President of the United States is an idiot!’ and nothing will happen to me,” he continued.

“We also have freedom of speech in the Soviet Union.” said the Soviet. “I can go to the Kremlin and say ‘The American President is an idiot’ and nothing will happen to me either.”
