As a follow-up we plan to upload the documentary (seen on youtube in Spanish)
"I love Pinochet" - we are just working to finish fine tuning the English subtitles we had
to improvise as none seemed available - except in Hebrew as a starting point.

This movie starring Derek Jacobi (I Claudius) in the main role shows an aging senile and volatile
Pinochet held by the Brits in lavish style while debated raged on as to what legal ploy or feign
as it were might be availed of by the government seeking to defeat obviously those wanting to
see Pinochet tried for cries against humanity in the brutality of his regime against his own
people - the people of Chile who experienced torture in massive numbers along with disappearances
and such cruelties as rape and if you want to consider the gross details, our previous witness
account from the upload of "santiago Italia" speaks of such barbaric misogynistic and
inhuman cruelties as applying electric shocks to women's breasts and genitalia in a bid
to curb liberal or left wing views considered extreme perhaps by the Pinochet junta - or perhaps
just the cruelties of the day by some misfits in the army and secret police apparatus
playing out sadistically against the population under cover of "maintaining order" and
"keeping control" and "curbing dissent"

The movie starts out with the claims that the CIA backed coup which brought this dictator
to power and whose administration in Chile had US backing apparently regardless of the widely
known about cruelty of the regime (comparable to Saddam in some respects too no doubt)
and with Lady Thatcher paying him respects while held in Britain hoping he would escape justice
as one would see it based on all accounts, the explanation lies in the explanation on
various websites on the Internet which speak to the period in a bid to defend his human
rights abuses perhaps as on the whole to be taken into account with the huge economic gains
made for decades following Pinochet's takeover and his market reforms and capitalist
model to replace the communistic oppression of the Allende regime instead as is the
view of those backing Pinochet. The claim is that Castro killed as many perhaps?
(To promote his communist regime and keep it in place) (Check sites on the net for more
on such claims) Communism is undoubtedly too a lousy way to exist and too kills the human spirit!

So the question is

1) Was Pinochet the lesser of two evils (as it were) in the minds of his western backers and observers,  
in regards to human rights abuses (communism abuses human sanity too in the case of those of merit
who deserve better than to be oppressed for those of lesser quality of producer for the economy
and society including the Arts etc)

2) could he defend any of the abuses which took place in his own mind as being somehow needed
to intimidate the majority to go along with his ideas for the country - despite the lack of democratic
support at the outset we are told - as many dictators have taken to extreme measures to control
huger populations through the infliction of fear so as to maintain rule of their own - such as Saddam
might have believed in keeping the religious fundamentalists and even ISIS extremists from taking
over all over in the mideast as the Bush regime was warned could be the outcome if Saddam was taken
down and what clearly seems to have followed through as consequences following - the new mantra
now being to "support democracy" as the US seeks to justify their action against Iraq even though the
oppressive spirit of theocracy to replace secular governments has therefore resulted to reared its ugliness
instead. How hypocritical.

Ultimately history must decide - I do not believe that from what has been described of the period, even
by my own dear brother in law Jose Beltran, now of Edmonton Canada - a saintly man - imprisoned
by the regime - no doubt in my mind excesses did take place by rotten apples who cannot be considered
sane in what was carried out and the degree of abuses and cruelties meted out in sadistic fashion for
crissakes

Never too late for justice I say, however all things must betaken into account and those unfit to live in our
midst as being of inhuman mind in what was seen of them during this period - that the maximum penalty
apply or none of us are safe ever - in our desire to exist sanely on the planet instead,

Thanks for seeding - gracias too - especially to such great great men as are those from Spain as my brother
in law Jose has always been - couldn't fathom to imagine a nicer man than him - thank god for Jose of Spain
on this planet today I say - and forever more - amen to that Bro for such kindness of heart as I have never seen!
