More to the point, I don't think we should lionize the leader of a military junta who led to the deaths of thousands and the internments of tens of thousands. Don't like Allende all you want, I, for one, don't find him a particularly praiseworthy figure, but the fetishization by the right of Pinochet is something I will never understand.

It's a more respectable way of saying that Mussolini made the trains run on time.
