Pinochet was only one of a long list of thugs put in power by Kissinger. And Kissinger was only one of a list of Americans who would be in serious danger of getting hauled in front of the ICC, for crimes against humanity, if the U.S. believed in the rule of law, or equality before the law (for anyone other than Americans).

There were plenty of communists every bit as bad as Pinochet. But my country didn't put them in power, so I am not responsible for their crimes. And, no, we won't forget, and we won't forgive, those of us who think the U.S. should stand for something other than naked self-interest. We'll keep bringing it up, until Kissinger and his ilk show repentence. As long as it takes. Especially since Kissinger's Cold War Manual For Murder and Mayhem is still being used. They just crossed out the word "communist", replaced it with the word "Islamist", and carried on as before.
