Is the US Operating like Che Guevara?
Although there are major similarities such as the fact that troops are being trained, I believe that is is not really fair to compare the two. In Bolivia, while training the troops, Che was trying fighting offensively for his cause by trying to instigate coups which would take down governments. The articles explains the presence of the CIA in Pakistan as one which is necessary to prevent attacks being prepared by Taliban and Queda groups. Che as acting offensively while the US in now acting defensively. A better comparison to make might be how how the US acted during the cold war in Bolivia and how they operate now based on their interests.
