Jailed Abimael Guzman, the Pol-Pot-ian Marxist terrorist leader of Peru’s Shining Path, which terrorized Peru for 20 years, gave Peru corrosive, confidence-killing hyperinflation, and murdered no less than 35,000 to 70,000 people, mostly from among the poorest of Peru … was a bigtime writer of fuzzy love poetry. The story is here.

You know how repulsive that news is. Saddam the human shredder was into writing romance novels, this freak was into sentimental poetry. Somehow, it makes the monsters even creepier. What’s disgusting is that there are still certain kinds of people on the international left who defend him or who ignore him or who consider him a ‘revolutionary’ somehow. Well, he’s not. He’s nothing more than a sap. It’s good news that this repellent news is getting out in Peru.
