Forum:SH:Source for Saw Gererra being based on Che Guevara?

Hi.

I was wondering about something. Other than the obvious similarities between name pronunciations (which wouldn't be the first time that Lucas didn't play subtlety regarding names on who characters were supposed to be based on), has there been any official sources (like DVD commentaries during the Onderon arc [either from Dave Filoni or George Lucas], or interviews with the cast of Rogue One or stuff like that) that confirmed that Saw Gerrera had in fact been based on Che Guevara? You know, something like how George Lucas confirmed in the Making of Star Wars that the Rebels were meant to be based on the Vietcong? I was wondering because, even though I strongly suspect that Saw Gerrera had been modeled after Che (and there are a lot of places that note the names' similarities), I have no sources to back it up, certainly no official sources from Lucas or other writing staff/acting staff that can back it up, meaning I can't add it in due to having no heads or tails there, so I was wondering if there were anything there.
