And its collapse while Pinochet did not cause any collapse to his country.Hitler was responsable for Germany economic revival too.For there is [another] kind of violence, slower but just as deadly, destructive as the shot or the bomb in the night. This is the violence of institutions -- indifference, inaction, and decay. This is the violence that afflicts the poor, that poisons relations between men because their skin has different colors. - Bobby Kennedy (Mindless Menance of Violence)Comment

so if Hitler didn't trigger WW2, he would have been a good guy?

Nope. Never claim he was either way. He was a fool in my opinion.
Also don't try to speak for other people... that is incredibly annoying and shows what kind of person you really are.For there is [another] kind of violence, slower but just as deadly, destructive as the shot or the bomb in the night.

Of course Pinochet pissed off lots of his own people. There were even many Americans who were convinced that Abraham Lincoln was the brother of Satan. The point here is: what do the majority of Chilean people think of Pinochet?Originally posted by Saint Marcus
the people there wanted to try Pinochet for crimes against humanity...that says enough.
A similar case could be made for Napoleon. His aggressions killed far more people than Pinochet, and yet French people worshipped in the Dome of Invalide.Comment

I don't identify with any brutal dictators, I identify with the brutalized serfs, although I do admire the young Napoleon, before he crowned himself."In Italy for 30 years under the Borgias, they had warfare, terror, murder and bloodshed. But they produced Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci and the Renaissance. In Switzerland, they had brotherly love. They had 500 years of democracy and peace. And what did that produce? The cuckoo clock."

For completely different reasons.Of course Pinochet pissed off lots of his own people. There were even many Americans who were convinced that Abraham Lincoln was the brother of Satan.
Don't know. Do you? (and before Fez posts here that he knows, I'd like to see a source)The point here is: what do the majority of Chilean people think of Pinochet?
A. Napoleons agression wasn't targetted at french civilians. Others were responsable for that.A similar case could be made for Napoleon. His aggressions killed far more people than Pinochet, and yet French people worshipped in the Dome of Invalide.
B. Napoleon mainly killed foreign soldiers
C. Napoleon conquered a vast empire, and was personally responsable for some of the most brilliant military victories ever. Pinochet did no such things.Quod Me Nutrit Me DestruitComment
