18. The issue was the speech by the nobel prize winner,
No flame war, but it shouldn't have to be a surprise that liberals don't vilify the same people that are vilified by the RW. You don't hear the RW about the high quality of education and healthcare in Cuba, nor about the fact that no-one there is starving - much unlike how it is in many wealthy nations.

on Milosovic: i don't know. But I have seen enough of the hearings to have doubts about the legitimacy of those trials.


Back to the issue:

Harold Pinter claims (as do many others) that

"Since World War II, the U.S. government has
"supported and in many cases engendered
every right-wing military dictatorship in the world".
"I refer to Indonesia, Greece, Uruguay, Brazil, Paraguay,
Haiti, Turkey, the Philippines, Guatemala,
El Salvador and, of course, Chile."


Is that correct ot not?
