Pinochet Takes Responsibility
In a prepared statement read at his birthday yesterday, General Pinochet took responsibility for the acts of his administration from 1973-1990 that includes thousands of killings, torture and false imprisonment. He faces many charges in connection with human rights violations, but the courts are not pursuing the cases because of his poor health. I think that it is great that he is finally admitting fault, but I still do not like that he gets to enjoy his final days in freedom. You can read more here. Frightening to think that the US, specifically the CIA, aided him at times.
