That's odd--for a government that is said to be responsible for 4000 deaths MAX, I'd say it was hard for him to have actually eliminated what would have had to be a number of socialists, leftists, unionists, etc that would have approached MILLIONS.

Other Socialist leaders were worried about Allende. They weren't all killed. In fact, almost none of them were. By any account 4,000(more likely 1200-3000) were not killed.

I hope that if the Soviets had been successful in fomenting a Communist rebellion here in the US that we would not be so soft on the enemies of freedom.

Your websites don't have much in the way of facts if they will deny the economic turnaround in Chile. They lose all credibility with such nonsense--and so do you.

Once again, are you a leftist and do you have non-leftist sources that back up your claims about Chile?

I've not yet seen many posts from you that indicate a freedom-loving disposition, except in rhetoric to show you are "balanced."

If a similar situation existed in the US, I'm sorry, even the ideological leaders of the enemy would be in danger of being killed--be it in battle or assassination. There comes a time when voting and talking will no longer do.

Do you have much to say about dictators responsible for more widespread repression, murders magnitudes greater than Pinochet and tyrannical behavior that pervades all aspects of a society(especially the economy)??

Not all Marxist governments engage in genocide (i.e., Nicaragua).

Any group attempting to overthrow our government is guilty of treason and should be executed.

The ends (economic prosperity) do not justify the means (mass murder).

I am not a leftist. Most conservative sources look the other way when a conservative government commits mass murder and vice versa (liberal sources and leftist governments).

I oppose all authoritarian and totalitarian (left or right) regimes.

Most of these people were murdered in the custody of the police and army.
