The reality, as we learn from Cuban exile Humberto Fontova, is that Che wasnt really a gentle soul and a selfless hero. He was a violent Communist who thought nothing of firing a gun into the stomach of a woman six months pregnant whose only crime was that her family opposed him. And he was a hypocrite who lusted after material luxuries while cultivating his image as a man of the people.

Fontova reveals that Che openly talked about his desire to use nuclear weapons against New York City. Such was Ches bloodthirsty hatred that Fontova considers him the godfather of modern terrorism.

Exposing the Real Che Guevarais based on scores of interviews with survivors of Ches atrocities as well as the American CIA agent who interrogated Che just hours before the Bolivian government executed him.
