Amie de Carlos: You skipped the demonstration against Pinochet's coup.Ilich Ram?rez S?nchez, aka 'Carlos': They bore me shitless and serve no purpose. Demonstrations never change a thing.Amie de Carlos: Chileans need to know we're behind them.Ilich Ram?rez S?nchez, aka 'Carlos': The Chilean generals and the CIA don't care. Where did picketing the coup in Uruguay get us? They're still killing the Tupamaros. It's war. It can't be won by picketing.Amie de Carlos: How then?Ilich Ram?rez S?nchez, aka 'Carlos': There are other methods. Words get us nowhere. It's time for action.Amie de Carlos: What kind of action?Ilich Ram?rez S?nchez, aka 'Carlos': We have to commit.Amie de Carlos: Commit to what?Ilich Ram?rez S?nchez, aka 'Carlos': To the revolution.Amie de Carlos: How do you mean? By covert actions?Ilich Ram?rez S?nchez, aka 'Carlos': By resistance. I've formed a group. I want you to join us.Amie de Carlos: What kind of group?Ilich Ram?rez S?nchez, aka 'Carlos': I can't tell you yet. But we're not nihilists. We want to do good.Amie de Carlos: Ilich, fighting capitalism with guerrilla means is romantic, but doomed to failure. No more desperate causes. They lead nowhere.Ilich Ram?rez S?nchez, aka 'Carlos': So we do nothing?Amie de Carlos: Is that what I do?Ilich Ram?rez S?nchez, aka 'Carlos': You talk politics in London cafes. Is that the answer? While they kill our comrades in Chile and Jordan. I told you what I saw.Amie de Carlos: The balance of power is against us.Ilich Ram?rez S?nchez, aka 'Carlos': A myth.Amie de Carlos: Not true. Look at Che! He ended up dead. Despite his experience!Ilich Ram?rez S?nchez, aka 'Carlos': Why fight the right in Latin America? You think Latin American dictators operate alone? Gringos pull the strings. Overthrow them and imperialism still wins! I'm advocating an internationalist struggle uniting revolutionaries the world over. Look how the Vietcong disgraced the gringos. Squashed them like shit. The balance of power isn't against us. The fight I propose will lead us to glory.Amie de Carlos: Glory? That's what you want. To be admired! That's what drives you. Bourgeois arrogance hidden behind revolutionary rhetoric! Just another selfish, two-bit petit-bourgeois!Ilich Ram?rez S?nchez, aka 'Carlos': I'm talking about true glory. Not what the Zionist media drones on about. But the pleasure of doing one's duty in silence. Behind every bullet we fire, there will be an idea. Because we act in harmony with our conscience. You say I'm arrogant? I guess I am. For defending the innocent. You know what? You'll be hearing my name a lot. What's more, it's no longer Ilich. My name is Carlos.
