Oh whoops, my mistake, I misread it as Che Guevara and got confused
But still, it begs the question: if Castro was murderous on the scale of (what google tells me) about 11,000 people, then surely nations like the US would also be considered 'murderous'? Given, for example, the 1.35 million people killed as a result of the Vietnam war, or the destruction wreaked upon North Korea during the Korean War, or (in more recent times) the 500,000 civilians dead as a result of the war of terror? It just seems to me that western states are, culturally speaking, allowed to kill millions indiscriminantly, but when others do the same it's seen as an inherent failure of whatever ideology they represent.
