The History Channel Shills For Che Guevara By Humberto Fontova
The A&E Network recently produced a Biography show on Ernesto "Che" Guevara. Years back they produced one on Senator "Tail-Gunner Joe" McCarthy. The depictions contrast sharply.
The second mentioned of these historical figures was a freely-elected official who campaigned to remove Stalinist agents that had infiltrated the government of a representative republic. Joe McCarthy launched his congressional inquiry into Communist penetration of the U.S. government at a time when Stalin's regime had already murdered more people, conquered more nations, and enslaved more of their citizens than Hitler's regime had managed at its murderous apex. On top of this, Stalin's regime had recently developed the Atomic bomb.
In 1950 Senator Mc Carthy claimed to know of 57 Stalinist agents in the employ of the U.S. government. Even with this immense totalitarian threat as a backdrop, not a single one of these alleged agents suffered so much as a day in jail, though some lost their cushy government jobs.
