"Welcome death if my battle cry has reached some receptive ear and there is another hand to wield our weapons ...” Che
In a small school of the Andean town of Higuera, Bolivia, was arrested on October 8, l967 Ernesto (Che) Guevara, the guerrilla fighter who also fought in the Cuban Revolution and Congo. The following day he was foully murdered and his physical disappearance sowed hope for the righteous men of the world.
His image and strength have multiplied throughout the earth. His figure grows in front of the prevailing injustice, inequality and poverty in the world. He is example of pure man taught us that to be revolutionary is to climb to the top step of the human species. His firm voice of comrade is heard in each battle field.
Nico Lopez, a young orthodox of autodidact Marxist training, met Ernesto (Che) Guevara in Guatemala, on January 3, 1954, and it is said he was the first one in calling him Che and telling him about the attack to the Moncada Garrison headed by Fidel Castro, so their similar ideas and the immense human value lead them a great friendship.
In those days Che confessed: "Nico was right in Guatemala when he said that if something has occurred in Cuba after Marti, was Fidel Castro; he will make the revolution. We agree deeply ... I would be willing to help only a person like him."
By words of Leonardo Tamayo (known as Urbano in the Bolivian guerrilla and who was another guerrilla native of the Sierra Maestra) was heard of the audacity and courage of Ernesto (Che) Guevara. "He never thought he was superior or better than anyone else in spite of he was the head of the Column Four. For him a man was different or similar to others by the moral principles, patriotic ideas and personal courage."
Harry Villegas, a guerrilla fighter, entered Havana along with Commander Che Guevara and later said about his comrade "he assumed the direction of the Cabaña with equanimity and respect for the officers who were there. He never hesitated. Not even in the most difficult moments. Che never lost control, enthusiasm and conviction in victory. On that October 8 he thought of the possible success, so he was considering getting out of the area. He never spoke of death. He never conceived it as something hypothetical,... he never talk about death as such, he never mentioned it. Che died as he lived, full of optimism." Because men like him are the light of dawn.
