Che's dead & his monument's shot

Glass Monument to Che in Venezuela Shot
Will the locals turn in whoever did it? I doubt it. Notice who inagurated the monument.CARACAS, Venezuela (AP) - A glass monument to revolutionary icon Ernesto "Che" Guevara was shot up and destroyed less than two weeks after it was unveiled by Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez's government.
Images of the 8-foot-tall glass plate bearing Guevara's image, now toppled and shattered, were shown Friday on state television, which said the entire country "repudiated" the vandalism.
The monument on an Andean mountain highway near the city of Merida was unveiled Oct. 8 by Vice President Jorge Rodriguez and Cuba's ambassador to Venezuela to mark the 40th anniversary of Guevara's death.
Che gets a bullet between the eyes.

This contradicts the "no news is good news" saying!
Even before he was killed, I suspected Che had a "glass" jaw. ;-)

Who would want to destroy a monument to a Latin American Marxist revolutionary?
Viva la nuevo revolution!
Good riddance to both, the assassin and his memory.
