Yet Communist dictator Salvador Allende is treated as hero by "progressives", and human rights abuses and deaths are never counted or stand trials in courts.

Allende the communist was trying to do to Chile what Chavez is doing to Venezuela right now.
Chile is better today in spite of what did or didn't happen
(how can I trust Communist-left wing sources that the MSM consider infallible) under the rule of Pinochet.
If only we could emulate Chile's social security system here our future taxation and debt problems would be helped greatly.

Good for him. Pin a medal on him. Many more tens of thousands would have died under a communist dictatorship.

More innocents were murdered by Islamicists on one day in September 2001 than in the entire reign of Pinochet.

Does anyone know where I can find a copy of that letter?
Also, does anyone here know of any good books on Pinochet?
