My father who was a Harvard graduate (like Kissinger) said in the late 70's that Kissinger was an evil criminal. I wasn't quite sure what he meant and assumed it referred to Vietnam, but as I aged I learned that the scope of that statement was much broader than my first impression.
It's good that here you face the U.S. role in Chile's coup head on. It would have been better if the piece mentioned the context of the U.S. interventions that resulted in dictatorships all over Latin America, from Guatemala in 1954, Brazil in 1964, and dozens more. Chile may have been the most horrific, but it was not the only horror the U.S. engineered for our southern neighbors. This overthrowing of democracies was consistent US foreign policy. An exploration of the role of corporations in driving the installation of all these dictatorships friendly to U.S. interests, including U.S. owned copper companies in Chile’s case, is important too. I hope you will keep digging.
Thank you Ms. Goodman. So very much for this interview. Let us never forget the ugly and horrific legacy of fascism when its allowed to raise it's hellish head.
@@tatianalyulkin410you actually said "what about" and answered your own question. address then by themselves. are you trying to defend Russian aggression...? good luck buddy.
I was born in a totally Russified Kharkov. I grew up with this Twilight Zone situation where de jure there were Ukrainian classes in school, plenty of books in Ukrainian-even a Ukrainian Drama Theater- but de facto Ukrainian was considered a peasant language and people who dared to speak it were laughed at. When I speak about Chile I know who Allende was, who Victor Jara was. What do you know about Ukraine that you dismiss me without even knowing me from Adam? Go ahead darling- I'm listening.
Our past policies and current. Are why there is so many at the border. I’m not against immigration because this what this country gets, for meddling in other foreign affairs. Plus our immigration policy is considered one the strangest in the world
The reason it's so strange is because the "right" is actually two ideologies which is Christian nationalism and neo-liberal capitalism and immigration policy is where they conflict. One wants to stop migration and the other wants to encourage it. So the Republican party has to kind of balance out these two conflicting goals.
Thank you, Mr. Kornbluh and your organization for more than 40 years of hard and rigorous work trying to bring to the public these once classified documents. The government of Nixon interrupted what was one of the most stable democracies in this part of the world, being rather an exception in a very unstable Latin America. The owner of El Mercurio and other generals, officers and members of the army not only violated the human rights of thousand of people but also committed high treason to Chile and should be prosecuted as so
“Peaceful election that removed a Socialist Government” is what the Captain of the USS Hunley announced as we arrived in Chile. I was a teenager and believed what our Government told us. To really know History, you need to ask the locals. Within 2 days I was told of the torture and killing of 9/11/1973 by English Teachers there. I became a Pacifist. I still didn’t know what happened until Missing by Costra Gravis, Watch.
I can’t believe the Major Architect of the Chilean mass murder lived to 100. I am embarrassed to go to countries that have suffered at the hands of Kissinger’s policies. We should be afraid of the logical consequences of our foreign policies.
@@michaelchamberlain5235 Except he wasn't the Architect. The assertion was Kissinger was responsible for the coup is a myth that's been repeatedly debunked. Salavdor Allende was brought down by his own incompetence and intransigence.
Kissinger has a lot to answer for. I hope he doesn't get honorary esteem when he shuffles off this mortal coil. The Republicans have fomented so much misery and destruction in many countries. Chickens have come home to roost now that they're attempting in their own country.
Yep. We're cursed. Just go to New York or SF or LA. Instead of apologizing " we " did it again. But now Michelle Bachelett and Ariel Dorfman are on the side of the Blake Association.
Yeah.. He didn't even care if they were Jews killed. Argentina account of Jewish persons disappeared are about 1500, during the violent dictatorship of General Rafael Videla.
Pray tell what's the point in " telling the truth " about what happened in Chile 50 years ago when Amy is lying about what's happening in Ukraine right now? There are people being killed and tortured by the Gestapo/SBU, my friend was " disappeared " in March of 2022! Gonzalo Lira is in grave danger- why is Amy pretending that Ukraine is a " democracy " ?
En chile el pueblo ya no se cree pueblo sino clase media y esta perfectamente desunido. 50 años de capitalismo puro y duro no han pasado en vano. El individualismo y el consumismo es la moda. Sin embargo vi mucha gente joven en las conmemoraciones... Quizás hay esperanza aún... Complejo. Recomiendo la peli Conde del director Larrain. El 15vse estrena en Netflix.
Once again, thanks for reviving this story...... While today. We continue to talk about 9/11/01. We need to educate the public. About previous terror attacks. Here's one more: In 1914 marines walked in a bank in Port au prince., Haiti 🇭🇹 and stole their gold reserves., in turn invaded the country the following year. For 19 years, the natives were killed, tortured. Looted..... In the 2001 terror attack, we were able to estimate. The death toll at approximately 3,000. The number of Haitians killed in the 1915 Invasion, were most likely too much to tally....
Perfect example of our countries global terrorist activities, we're the cause of all global misery and instability,the globe is a theatrical stage where we orchestrate the play and out come.
The US repeated the Chile thing in Russia. When Gorbashov enacted free elections and abolished large parts of the propaganda machine the people still overwhelmingly voted to remain communist. However Yeltsin backed by the US and the Soviet military staged a coup in Moscow to attack members of the government and overthrow the Soviet government and he succeeded.
On the other hand, we have to recognize though, here in Argentina, how Pres. Carter gained our respect stopping all this crazy killings committed for fascist Militar dictatorship of General Rafael Videla from March 1976-march 1982. Mr Carter even sent Patricia Derian several times.....On time to save a lot of people lives, before being kidnapped and disappear.
Okay, I'm American, I may not have voted for them but those SOBs but what they did to the people of Chile was unforgivable, terrible, to the people of Chile this one American offers his very sincere policy. And I'm a registered republican damnit!
Condor Operative of the South Cone, of the Americas, coordinated as state terrorism, between Chile, Bolivia, Paraguay, Brazil, Argentina lead for ferocious militar dictotships in the 1970s, killed thousands, kidnapped, tortured a lot more.
🙄Oh really? Pinochet and his supporters were nothing more than robots controlled from DC (or Arlington or Langley or…), right? 🤨And what about Allende and his government? 🙄Why, those innocent lambs bear absolutely no moral responsibility at all for what happened, right? 😖 Good friggin’ grief! 🤦♂️…)
....And then right away The Chicago's Boys came along in Chile, sitting there one of their Boys, as minister of economy being Chile the first economic experimental Guinea Pig Country for their infamous neo-liberal economics.
Are they " zigging "? Please tell me I just didn't see them " zigging ". But then again- why am I surprised? Considering the friendship between Pinochet and clan Krasnov.
Isn't there a legitimate argument that had Allende remained in power it was only a matter of time before the Soviet Union had a foothold in South America, just like Castro's Cuba?
They should but they will not, in fact a few days ago there was a published story by the Intercept about how the Biden administration illegally ousted the prime minister of Pakistan because they didn't like his decision to pull out of supporting Ukraine. No matter how you feel about that cause it shows that regardless of what administration is leading the US government the ruling class of the USA has consistently shown they have no respect for national sovereignty of any country, or the American people since research published by oxford shows that since the 1970's US laws and policies have little to no statistical correlation with the interests of the American people and strong concordance with the interests of the American ruling class. The United States is based on the evidence not a democracy or even democratic republic it is an electoral oligarchy (plutocracy) where you can vote which face of the ruling class you get to see lie to the American public. By the time a candidate is on the ballot for any higher office the ruling class has already made their selections.
Why? We have a new Eastern European " Palestine ". It's called Donbass. Where have you my precious ones been since 2014? Is Chile in so much trouble again that you guys can afford to be oblivious to what's going on in Ukraine?
Zelensky promised to turn Ukraine into a "big Israel," hence the genocide of the ethnic Ukrainians on the subhuman orders of the Kievan Junta (2/3 Jewish) and its ziocon/Mic handlers in DC
Most people you meet from Chile will speak favorably of Pinochet. Many didn't live during that time when these events happened or weren't old enough to actively witness or understand them. But that Allende's system didn't work and Pinochet's did is the narrative they have been sold for decades. This belief has become self evident.
Pareciera que no consultaste a las personas más informadas. Lo que mencionas lamentablemente es cierto hasta cierto punto. Hoy Chile es un país dividido por 11-9. El gobierno lo tiene la izquierda y la derecha le hace la vida imposible
@@RoxanaAlfaro-mf4xj La verdad es que siempre he sentido mucha simpatía hacia Allende y lo que pasó en Chile en ese entonces con su elección es algo increíble. Pero cuando fui a Chile en los años 90 realmente me sorprendí como la gente pensaba de Pinochet (un dictador). Muchos me dijeron que él los salvó del socialismo. Conocí a gente más joven que me dijo que Allende era una buena persona, pero me dijeron que el socialismo no funciona. Estoy realmente sorprendido que hoy en día votaran por un presidente de la izquierda, pero falta decir que el pueblo Chileno rechazó su constitución izquierdista y parece que el país se está moviendo más a la derecha.
I was recently in Chile - The only Chilean I met that brought Pinochet up was totally against his reign of terror. Only 36% of Chileans still support Pinochet according to a recent poll. Watch "The Battle of Chile" if you want to get a feel for what went on.
@@marktele8061 36% is pretty high support for a dictator after all these years. And it used to be much higher from what I sensed. Keep in mind that the Chilean people rejected their liberal constitution recently and the country seems to be turning to the right again
Of course. And the " helicopter rides " and the " contributions " of clan Krasnov. But at the same time there are very few people who understands clan Krasnov the way I do.
it's nice, to remember that the usg is run by orcs, but '50 year comemerations' are not necessary. most weeks have a little casual murder done by drone. iraq and afghanistan were merely larger irruptions of immanent evil.
What? They actually admitted that Pinochet was committed crimes against humanity? He wasn't considered a " St. John of the Cross " like Zelensky? Oh, I'm so sorry. 🤣
The current economic crisis in the UK is indeed quite severe, which is why I strongly encourage anyone with savings starting from £50,000 and above to seek out a reputable financial advisor. Such advisors can guide them in finding better investment opportunities, such as stocks, forex, and other assets, which have the potential to be more profitable.
I thought I was the only person that knows Mrs Sophia Bitcoin trading services, she has managed my Investment so well, I make mind blowing profits every weekly returns
The truth is that, with this recent economy everyone needs more than their salary to be financially stable. The best thing to do with your money is to Invest it rightly because money left for savings always ends up used with no returns...
Why about the Ukrainian coup of course! I don't have 50 years- I don't have 2 years! I'm dying. In a year or so " the Ukrainian Ariel Dorfman " is gonna be dead. And I still don't know what happened to my mother- if she was killed by the CIA and the Gestapo/SBU or " just " driven to suicide like Pablo Neruda. I don't know if my friend Oleg Novikov whom Zelensky had disappeared in March of 2022 is still alive or if he was tortured to death.
Cleansing sounds so pedestrian. It was torture and murder of people who supported a democratically elected president by a fascist regime supported by the US gov't.
Yeah- like Communism itself anti Communism starts with the best possible intentions. And then " for some strange reason " it becomes as evil and repulsive as Communism itself. Colonia Dignidad, boys and girls?
Summary executions, no trial, for supporting an elected government? Giving the go ahead to Pinochet to murder 2 non-violent American citizens? Then refusing to help their families get the bodies shipped home?
OK, enough of this crap. In one of the " The Fast and the Furious " movies there is a rat torture and the majority of people would just assume that it was invented by the Mexican cartels and move on. Except that it wasn't. It was invented by Saenko- the Head of the Kharkov Cheka. In other words, DINA was using the torture method " gifted " to it by clan Krasnov...that the Bolsheviks used against Krasnov's own officers!!! Sorry, this is not anti Communism- this is BS. If Pinochet was a genuine anti Communist I'm Felix Dzerzhinsky!
09-11-1973 was the best thing that could happen to Chile, I lived in the Allende dictatorship, it was not the utopia that they want us to believe, the Allende regime was brutal, murders, rapes and corruption, I lived it. Long live my Captain General Augusto Pinochet Ugarte.
@@themroc8231 We should have just let the commies have free reign south of our border. The commies have a great human rights record and people have plenty of food to eat. They don't need to get on rickety boats braving rough seas and sharks to flee to Florida.

Look Kissinger wasn't evil he was merely playing by the Machiavellian rules of Realpolitik. Nixon , Friedman et. al were involved. I happen to like his geopolitical analytics. The young left doesn't hold the older generations grudges. Hillary Clinton made it ok to appreciate his intelligence
