Finalmente, o cinema americano rendeu-se a um dos seus maiores inimigos e aqueles que ainda hoje se passeiam de t-shirt e boina ao Ernesto “Che” Guevara, têm a hipótese de conhecer a verdadeira história do herói que veneram. “Che” é o olhar do mais independente dos realizadores americanos sobre a lenda de um dos grandes revolucionários do século XX. Depois da trilogia “Oceans”, Steven Soderbergh não resistiu ao fascínio da vida romanesca, aventurosa e apaixonante deste argentino sem pátria que continua sendo um mito para sucessivas gerações.
A história de Che retratada neste filme foi obviamente distorcida e romanceada, para se adequar aos seguidores do Culto Che Chic. Estes nada questionam sobre o seu herói, não separam o homem do mito, e recusam-se mesmo a aceitar as evidências relatadas pelo próprio guerrilheiro: o ódio puro que sentia por quem tivesse um punhado de dólares, o deleite em assassinar a sangue frio qualquer opositor ou o prazer em supervisionar execuções de meros suspeitos.
"Comissão depuradora" deve ser mesmo um conceito estranho. Prisão La Cabaña? Não é Guantanamo, por isso o que interessa...
A ideologia totalitária, as políticas falhadas, a crueldade e o culto da morte são meros rumores certamente perpetuados pelos neo-liberais.
Tudo montado para prestar o culto a Guevara, que se ainda fosse vivo, não hesitaria sequer um segundo, em privar os seus seguidores dos seus pertences, propriedade privada, da liberdade de pensamento ou mesmo das suas vidas.
TEHRAN, Iran — The first mixed soccer game — females vs. males — since the 1979 Islamic revolution led to swift punishment Monday, as an Iranian soccer club said it had suspended three officials involved and handed out fines of up to $5,000. Iran's strict Islamic rules ban any physical contact between unrelated men and women, and Iranian women are even banned from attending soccer games when male teams play. (...) The youth team beat the women 7-0 in a game Vatan-e-Emrooz described as 'historic.' Video clips on cell phones were used as evidence against the suspended officials, who initially denied the game was held, the paper said. The report said the game was held at Marqoobkar stadium in south Tehran. Mixed games for soccer, called football in Iran, were virtually unheard of even before the Islamic revolution. Kamran Khatibi, a soccer writer at Kayhan sports daily, said he doesn't remember a "football game ever having been played between women and men in Iran — not even during Shah Reza Pahlavi's era."
"To trash Bush was to belong," writes Debra J. Saunders, putting her finger on the primal tribal imperative that underlies the relentless scapegoating of our 43rd president by his political adversaries gadding the corridors of power these last eight years, together with their allies in the media, here and abroad. First a few excerpts from Saunders's column, and then on to Glenn C. Lowry's extremely thought-provoking, not unrelated "The Call of the Tribe: The role of identity in our politics and our lives"
Michael Medved : Why Palestinian Victims Get More Attention Than Others - Townhall.com
Basta verificar como actualmente para os media e para certos "Pacifistas", uns conflitos e suas vítimas são mais iguais do que outros conflitos e outras vítimas:
"In the first week of Israel's current military operation to stop Hamas rocket attacks from Gaza, the U.N. reported that 500 died, at most 125 of them civilians.
At precisely the same time, Ugandan rebels slaughtered an estimated 400 civilians in the Eastern Congo (according to the Catholic aid agency Caritas) and piled at least 150 of their horribly mutilated bodies like cord wood in a church sanctuary on Christmas day. 'The scene at the church was unbelievable,' Captain Chris Magezi of the Ugandan Army told the Associated Press. 'It was horrendous. On the floor were dead bodies of mostly women and children cut in pieces.'
Why should the suffering and martyrdom of these African villagers count for less than the simultaneous, vastly more publicized misfortunes of Palestinians in Gaza?
What gives Palestinian victims their special status—a standing that brings with it a wildly disproportionate share of the world's concern and attention?
The United Nations General Assembly, as well as the Security Council, blithely ignored the more numerous and sadistic civilian casualties in the Congo, and paid no heed to the climax of an unspeakably bloody 16 year war in Sri Lanka, while investing virtually all their time in obsess"
