FdSki Allende wasnt just some european social democrat and early 1970s Chile wasnt quite some stable mundane modern west european democracy. Chile was a deeply devided country on the brink of civil war beteeen right and left wing fanatics. Allenda was doing the usual communist thiong, nationalizing industries, turninmg sharply left, forging close alliences with the USSR, Cuba and North Korea. Left wing fanatics in Alledes circles were getting out of control and plotting violent revolution etc etc, the country was a mess headed for civil war and possible domination by global communism. I'm very very glad it never got there.
But hey I know you gotta defend Allende and Castro, its what you guys do...
