Che Guevara visited the tomb of Saladin in Damascus in 1959 during his post-Cuban Revolution tour of Africa and the Middle East. The visit was symbolic... Guevara was interested in anti-imperial struggles beyond Latin America, and Saladin (the 12th Century AD, leader who repelled Crusaders and recaptured Jerusalem). The tomb acts as a powerful symbol of defiance against external, foreign occupation.
