I don't know how accurate it is (it seems like every book written about him has people that will say it's false) but Companero was a good biography, IMO. You could also read his own work, like Guerrilla Warfare and On Global Justice, etc. to get a sense of how he might have thought.

It boils down to this: do you support the US' post-WWII world order, and more specifically, its Cuban incarnation found in the brutal Batista regime? Or do you support Che's antithesis, which he fought for (with bloody efficiency in Cuba) around the world?
