Japanese revolutionary Fusako Shigenobu was released from prison

Also, as a sidenote: hardly any Latin American countries sided with the communists in Cuba. Latin America was staunchly anti-communist during that period and it was because the people did not want communism. No one in their right mind wants to live under the system they had in Cuba.

A US imperialist madkhali what a combo

that narrative is a joke. yes, the CIA supported Pinochet and them. the other side was backed by Cuba and the Soviets.

the reality is that ordinary Latin Americans are not Communist. Latin Americans especially in the Cold War days are traditionally Catholic. Communism denies the existence of God and seeks to eliminate religion. the idea that you are pro-US imperialism because you don't want to live under Communism is a joke. were the Afghans US puppets? no, the Afghans independently of their own free will did not want to live under Communism. the same is the case with Latin Americans during the Cold War era and today. no one in their right mind wants to live under Communism, it has nothing to do with what the US or Russia want.

So let me get this straight, an opponent of US military presence in Japan, and proponent of Japanese imperialism was imprisoned by Japan for allying with Palestinian freedom fighters only to be recently released from captivity, does that sound about right?

@Omar del Sur you are a bizarre one friend.

At the one end you quote scripture that calls for uniform gaal disavowment, and at the other you're splitting hairs between the godless communist groups and the CIA sockpuppet that is the brutal Pino-fucking-chet.

Twerk for dajjaal in favour of shaytan boys and girls.

Pinochet was a fantastic fellow kulaha when he's likely writhing in his grave

To be honest anything your post here will have to be scrutinised extra since your reasoning has simply broken the autism limits. Your disavowment of gaalo is a pantomime.

There's nothing bizarre about my viewpoint. It's not my fault if you don't understand Latin American history and your understanding of the region's history is just parroting cliches of leftist propaganda.

I have already addressed the leftist cliches/propaganda. Go talk to ordinary Latin Americans. They tend to be conservative and often religious. They're not Communists. Ordinary Latin Americans don't want to live under Communism just like no ordinary people want to live under a Communist dictatorship. Allende was trying to turn Chile into a totalitarian Communist dictatorship like Cuba.

The people of Chile rose up against the crazy Communist Allende regime and the military intervened to defend the country. It's not my fault if you're trying to argue with me about a region you know nothing about. True the US did support the anti-Communist side- the Soviets and Cubans supported Allende. At the end of day, Latin Americans don't want Communism. Allende fell because the people didn't want to live in another Cuba. No one in their right mind does.

It is not fault the media glorifies commies and is biased in favor of leftism. I have nowhere said Pinochet was a great person or anything like that, what I have said was that he was right to fight against Communism taking over his country- and he was correct in doing so.

Also, Pinochet was anti-Communist way before the 1970's. It is silly. When Afghans didn't want want to live under Communism, they were called mujahideen. Latin Americans are as human as Afghans and also don't want to live under Communism- besides a crazy minority.

If my view of Pinochet is shocking to you then you should try talking to actual Latin Americans instead of seeing some English-language content on Latin America and thinking you know the region. The cliche view here is common amongst people who don't know Spanish and are just going by English language foreign media. My view is common amongst actual Latin Americans. There's a difference for example if you watch something about Somalia on English Al-Jazeera versus if you talk to actual Somalis- or you see an English Al-Jazeera piece on Pakistan versus if you actually talk to Pakistanis.
