Breaking on CNN: Pinochet is dead

[malaise]

Good riddance.

[KingFlorez]

1. No one mourns the wicked

Good riddance is right.

[montanacowboy]

2. Rot in Hell

Bastard...he will have lots of company and many more to come

[deadmessengers]

3. Fuck him.

He was the representation of everything wrong with right-wing politics. His dictatorship in Chile set the example for the likes of Saddam and the Bushies.

[WindRavenX]

4. Weren't people doubting his heart condition?

Or did I miss something?

[1932]

16. Yes. Eight years ago.

[Posteritatis]

17. What condition? He lost use of that organ decades ago.. (n/t)

[Vidar]

5. Hope it was painful.

[Jack Rabbit]

6. May his victims rest in peace

[slor]

7. Ahhh...Hell has a new demon...

with horns.

[roamer65]

8. I agree, good riddance.

The world has one less mass murderer today.:toast:

[johnfunk]

9. Pinochet and Kirkpatrick in one week! Good riddance, but...

... the former will sadly never stand trial for his fascistic crimes.

[malaise]

10. I an only hope that a few more of their dear fascist friends

join them asp.The Chilean people have taken to the street to celebrate. CNN has coverage now.

[terrya]

13. For instance...

Henry Kissinger, since Kissinger helped install this evil monster to power.

[Tierra_y_Libertad]

11. My sympathy is only notable for it's absence.

If there is a hell, he will be a contender for one of the hottest spots.

[rock]

12. I loved how his nose grew longer when he lied

Say, did that still happen after the fairy turned him into a human?

[uppityperson]

14. again, still, yet? Thanks for the news.

15. THEY DANCE ALONE

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jA_X_gzhWfw

THEY DANCE ALONE



Why are there women here dancing on their own?
Why is there this sadness in their eyes?
Why are the soldiers here
Their faces fixed like stone?
I can't see what it is that they dispise
They're dancing with the missing
They're dancing with the dead
They dance with the invisible ones
Their anguish is unsaid
They're dancing with their fathers
They're dancing with their sons
They're dancing with their husbands
They dance alone They dance alone



It's the only form of protest they're allowed
I've seen their silent faces scream so loud
If they were to speak these words they'd go missing too
Another woman on a torture table what else can they do
They're dancing with the missing
They're dancing with the dead
They dance with the invisible ones
Their anguish is unsaid
They're dancing with their fathers
They're dancing with their sons
They're dancing with their husbands
They dance alone They dance alone



One day we'll dance on their graves
One day we'll sing our freedom
One day we'll laugh in our joy
And we'll dance
One day we'll dance on their graves
One day we'll sing our freedom
One day we'll laugh in our joy
And we'll dance



Ellas danzan con los desaparecidos
Ellas danzan con los muertos
Ellas danzan con amores invisibles
Ellas danzan con silenciosa angustia
Danzan con sus pardres
Danzan con sus hijos
Danzan con sus esposos
Ellas danzan solas
Danzan solas



Hey Mr. Pinochet
You've sown a bitter crop
It's foreign money that supports you
One day the money's going to stop
No wages for your torturers
No budget for your guns



Can you think of your own mother
Dancin' with her invisible son
They're dancing with the missing
They're dancing with the dead
They dance with the invisible ones
They're anguish is unsaid
They're dancing with their fathers
They're dancing with their sons
They're dancing with their husbands
They dance alone

STING

18. Lovely

Thanks for that. BBC TV has great coverage of this monster's departure.

The war now is whether he will get a military funeral. I can't wait for Michelle's take on this.

Add.
The only pity is that this butcher did't die in prison.

Where are ya gonna fuckin' run to

Judge Links Col. Huber’s Death To Pinochet’s Arms Laundering

(Oct. 6, 2005) Investigations into illegal weapons sales to Croatia in the early 1990s and the mysterious death of Col. Gerardo Huber advanced rapidly this week, as new discoveries from the Riggs Bank case shed light on the motives behind decades of arms purchases, bribes, murders and – perhaps – the origin of former dictator Augusto Pinochet’s secret wealth.

New evidence discovered by Judge Claudio Pavez has conclusively linked Huber’s 1992 death to the Riggs Bank case, an inquiry into former Gen. Augusto Pinochet’s private fortune, which is hidden in numerous offshore bank accounts. Pavez, lead investigator for the court reviewing the Huber case, asked for the appointment of a civilian judge to his military panel of investigators on Sept 27.

Col. Huber disappeared on Jan. 29, 1992, two months after United Nations (UN) officials in Hungary seized a Chilean shipment of weapons bound for the Balkan state of Croatia. The country was then under a UN arms embargo for its part in the Balkan War and the weapons shipment was illegal.

As the Chief of Acquisitions for Chile’s army at the time, Huber was expected to appear in court to testify about his role in the illegal arms deal. Shortly before he disappeared he implicated Gen. Carlos Krumm, director of logistics for the army, as a participant in the weapons sale. Huber’s body was found floating in the Maipo River three weeks later.

26. Latin American expert Hugh O'Shaunessey

describes him as a 100% monster who created Abu Ghraib and Guantanamo Bay long before others considered these thing. He then listed his corruption deals including arms smuggling, cocaine smuggling etc and made a scathing attack on th eUS government's complicity and assistance.

Whatever else you watch from BBC watch my favourite Irish journalist.

19. May God's will be done

[malaise]

21. BBC TV has a victim of his torture

on now. Sounds like the model for Bushco's reign of terror. She blames both Pinochet and the US government.
There's an anti-Pinochet really in Santiago now. The majority of the population oppose a state funeral.

[Evoman]

22. The first chance I get, I'm going to defecate on his grave.

Like I've mentioned in some other threads, Pinochet was responsible for the exile of my parents and I from Chile and Argentina. He almost killed my dad and uncle. I'm just sad that he died in a nice cushy hospital instead of in a dank, dark prison.

Fuck Pinochet.

The winner
I read that Margaret Thatcher is 'greatly saddened' by the death of the evil brutal fascist dictator Pinochet.
That's two bits of good news then!

24. Evil that strong can never truly die

[bicentennial_baby]

25. Damnit....

If only the world had held him accountable for his crimes much sooner, then maybe, maybe, the bastard could have suffered as many of his regime's victims did...sigh...
