Hi.

The Che Guevara praises in Peace Walker bothered me. I could understand why the FSLN would support Che Guevara (they were undergoing a Marxist revolution, after all), and I kinda understand why Big Boss might support Che (although he's in the grey area unlike FSLN, not to mention even at his worst, he was absolutely nothing like Che, actually, his closest comparison would ironically be Colonel Volgin, but that's not here or there). However, for the love of God, I cannot understand why Kazuhira Miller of all people would be praising Che. I mean, other than his actions in Metal Gear 2: Solid Snake (where he most notably fought against Big Boss), several of Miller's actions don't fit at all with a Che supporter, not even anti-Americanism (Actually, of the main cast, he was the closest to being pro-American, seeing how he felt America was closer to his birthland than Japan). Can someone please explain why they had to make Miller a Che fanboy in that game, because it makes little sense at all? Not even his brief stint with Cipher could work as an explanation, since he himself made it clear to both Big Boss and Zero that he was not an actual ally of Cipher. Sorry for the rambling, but the entire premise of him (and to a lesser extent, Big Boss, who certainly hated Volgin, the closest comparison to Che, for his actions) being fanboys to Che seemed nonsensical.
