Apples to Apples

The similarities with this military operation in Pakistan and what Che did in Bolivia and the Congo are rather evident. An outside force training soldiers to combat a group from the region. The differences though, are many. What the US government is doing is helping soldiers from a government combat terrorist organizations from the region. While Che was training gorilla fighters to overthrow the local government. I believe that what Che did was wrong because he was pushing a communist agenda, taking advantage of a poor group of people. The training being done in Pakistan is simply empowering a democratic government's soldiers to better combat the forces of terrorism. Also one could argue that Che was nearly out of his mind when he tried to train a group of random men to fight an unclear enemy. I would not say this is an example of a hypocrisy, there are too many differences with the two.
