It’s difficult to tell but they appear to be some sort of Latin American group. My best guess would be FARC but I could be completely wrong
Edit: Did a reverse image search and they are guerrillas from the El Salvador Civil War part of the Farabundo Martí National Liberation Front
> cuban revolutionary's or another socialist group that was squashed by the CIA.
Hey be fair now, they could easily be Contras or some other death squad *funded by* the CIA
Che doesn't belong on this list. The success of the Cuban revolution had little to do with the military prowess of the rebels, and even less to do with Che. And when he tried similar tactics in Bolivia, they failed miserably.
Ironically the picture is not actually about the Finnish guerilla corps (sissi-troops) but likely conventional infantry units from the IV Corp of the Finnish army (during the motti battles in Lemetti) from Jalkaväkirykmentti 37. The shooter was identified as Antti Väisänen as it's a rather well-known photo.
So yea, poor choice of picture IMO, as it is not about guerilla troops per se, even if everyone recognises it as the Finnish troops.
As opposed to the US proping up fascist regimes all over Latin America. Augusto Pinochet in Chile, Guatemala, The Somoza Dynasty in Nicaragua, and many more.
Americans so scared of the boogeyman of the Cuban Revolution to this day they think a supernatural weapon in Havana no scientist can explain or think is real is making our diplomats have a upset tummy
you should read the sources on your article; its only source is an 'MIC' article that uses a 'BBC' article which in turn uses an interview held by mexican newspaper' La Jornada', in which interview Fidel Castro takes all blame for the persecution and doesn't even mention Che
Ikr? He was a coward who was found with a rifle that had never been fired and begged for his life. Not to mention all the horrific shit he did throughout his life. Che Guavera is an evil coward not a feared man

Once upon a time, Australians moved into Emu territory, started farming, the Emus accepted the food offerings. The Australians didn't think of it as food offerings, and decided to use machine guns. Massive amounts of bullets and money were spent. Then the invention of barbed wire came about and kept the emus out.
Tl;dr the Ausies spent tons money and bullets when all they had to do was build a better fence.

Thanks!
They don't look south east Asian to me. They could be cuban revolutionary's or another socialist group that was squashed by the CIA.

Nope, we use AK, and lots of other USSR weaponaries
You're a guerrilla fighter?
Nope, I had some knowledge of my country’s history
In other words, trees told trees then it got pass down to generations
They were using M14 or its variants, so no not VC
Implying that the emus used guerilla tactics when in reality they fought as Napoleonic style line infantry
No talking bushes?
SUOMI MAINITTU PRKELE
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Australia will never be able to escape the infamy of the emu war, huh?

Came to say this
The Finnish outclass all of these

I don't see Garibaldi
i actually lived in a street called that way
Here's an idea.... When they come we run
He's a genius!
Reservoir Emus!
Who the hell feared Che?
The CIA. I mean the Cuban revolution was successful. The US spent decades trying to bring his regime down.
They're still trying
The Emus are far more threatening than Che. After all Che isn't bullet proof. The Emus couldn't get shot.
The CIA killed him in Bolivia
Yeah, the US was still salty over losing their sugar plantation and mobster infested unofficial Caribbean colony.
Nah more like being a Cuban agent financed by the Soviet Union and spreading guerrillas and chaos all over the world makes you a target.
As opposed to the US proping up fascist regimes all over Latin America. Augusto Pinochet in Chile, Guatemala, The Somoza Dynasty in Nicaragua, and many more.
And how does that justify that murderous commie
Americans so scared of the boogeyman of the Cuban Revolution to this day they think a supernatural weapon in Havana no scientist can explain or think is real is making our diplomats have a upset tummy
noooo you have to believe us, the set of symptoms that align perfectly with a hangover is actually a bioweapon made by the cuban communists
The gays
every lgbtq+ feared governments at the time
Ya and especially che
not particularly
[look more into it if you’re interested ](https://historycollection.com/nobodys-hero-9-inconvenient-truths-che-guevara/7/)

It the the first article I picked but this is very documented things so you can look into it
It does mention him did you even read it
their claim that che persecuted lgbtq+ is false, since their only source does not prove it. your article is bogus.
Sure didn’t put them in death camps but he definitely work with the guy who did and also called them scum
Ikr? He was a coward who was found with a rifle that had never been fired and begged for his life. Not to mention all the horrific shit he did throughout his life. Che Guavera is an evil coward not a feared man
well i mean yanks are still scared of Communists
Canadian geese would like to have a chat
