Very ambivalent about this. The Rolling Stone has some good journalism and this kid's story is definitely worthy of a cover story in any magazine including RS. It's upsetting because the cover of the Rolling Stone is usually reserved for pop culture icons, great artists and entertainers, and here is a fucking terrorist punk who killed innocent people and turned a city upside down getting the same treatment. Young people are shallow idiots, they're looking at him superficially as a hot/cute young guy. I hate it because if this kid had been your typical unattractive Arab looking terrorist instead of an Americanized shaggy haired lifeguard not a chance in hell the Rolling Stone puts him on the cover. It's not his story that got him the cover, it's his look and that's sad.

Che Guevara became a worldwide icon, 90% of the hippies and teenagers who have worn his image on a t-shirt have had no clue what Guevara really did.
