"The Other 9/11": Ariel Dorfman on 50th Anniversary of U.S.-Backed Coup in Chile That Ousted Allende
Вставка
- Опубліковано 8 гру 2024
- We look at the 50th anniversary of what is sometimes called the "other 9/11" - the U.S.-backed coup in Chile, when General Augusto Pinochet ousted President Salvador Allende and inaugurated almost two decades of brutal military rule. Allende died in the presidential palace on September 11, 1973, marking the end of Chile's first socialist government. During Pinochet's military dictatorship, more than 3,000 people were disappeared or killed, and some 40,000 more were tortured as political prisoners as Chile remained a close partner to the United States during the Cold War. "We're still living in some sense under the shadow of Pinochet, and of course we're living under the gigantic light … of Salvador Allende," says renowned Chilean writer Ariel Dorfman, who served as a cultural adviser to Allende from 1970 to 1973 before going into exile following the coup. His latest novel, "The Suicide Museum", explores the mystery around Allende's death and whether it was a suicide or murder.

After America's 9/11 there was a widespread headline: "Why do they hate us?"
Chile's 9/11 and the events like it give you part of the answer.
Go further down in history.
HAITI 🇭🇹 1915...
True.
And the fact it was called ground zero. taking over the names of the original ground zeros, Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
Ukraine 2014. DC is already looking for a way out of its latest failed exploit. Blaming its flunkies in the Keeve regime.
Russians, ukronotzees, and everyone from everywhere are already inside the belly of the beast. Americas homeland security surveillance state won't know what hit it....
"Hate" is a strong word to use for people in Latin America.
If it was hate coming from South America you would have terrorists attacks done by Chileans, Argentinians, Brazilians and more. Ironically one of the largest Chilean diasporas is located in the USA. I think it's more disappointment coming from a country that was supposed to have the same values of emancipation, liberty, justice and despise for imperialism.
But i suppose time changes...
I attended a 15th anniversary in 1988 at St. Ann's church in The Bronx. Now it's 50 years since the kissinger-nixon-pinochet coup and the former is still here age 100, and not in prison for war crimes.
He ( Kissinger ) even won the Nobel Prize for Peace ie. The Nobel Peace Prize.
So did Barack.

How Many Children, their Fathers, Siblings and Mothers has Kissinger Slaughtered in his 100 Years. Does he Fear his Grave?
Oh, you got that right Jaun. 🍀 Thank you, Needed to be said - Again, 🌎 thank you.
What your fear are facts. You must really defend terrorists.

I wish kissinger lives a lllloooonnnnnnhhhhh life,
and never has a peaceful nite.!!
I was friends with Ralph Dungan's kids- after he left Chile & became Chancelor of Education in NJ. As Ambassador to Chile, he was against the coup d'état. MANY Americans were against the coup. Kissinger has much blood on his hands.
America has a way of things.... cover up and ignore things hoping people forget and facts get forgotten
He should be treated as a war criminal despite his age!
Kissinger in Vietnam too...
And inn iran we had this 3 week before 911 in 1953🇺🇸🇮🇷
Interestingly I'm also remembering how Putin poignantly reminded America, not long ago, about the American army's sadistic massacre, at Wounded Knee, of an entire community of innocent unarmed Native people, women, children, elderly, the disabled, and babies, already captured and helpless in front of the Gatling guns of the US military. Putin properly shamed and disgraced America by pointing out how our country does not come to the negotiating table with clean hands!
Shame on us for so many things, Iran 1950s, Chile 1970s etc. Central American countries OMG
shame on us for the negatives...maybe some people should give thanks and praise for the positives which far out numbers the negatives BUT you will not see or hear ANY about them here or while the Left controls the message and narratives

Nations, too, reap what they sow. Justifiably. America will never learn the concept of humility. There's no good ending for such an arrogant nation. It is slowly decaying.
Rubbish. Was it arrogant for America to storm the beaches of Normandy, France and turn the tide of the War in Europe? As a nation, America is statistically among the most genorest and beneficent in terms of financial and material aid to other countries and peoples in less fortunate circumstances. Your hatred and bias, has been rewarded with blind ignorance. In such a state, you too will fall.
THANKS. Democracy NOW for continuing to EDUCATE.
More like propagating lies.🤡🌎

May Chile never be forgotten just the same as those lost in Manhattan on that Tuesday morning.
Liberal modernists and feminists will feign outrage, but their moral system is what creates this situation.
Liberal principles of individual choice, female empowerment, and destruction of patriarchy create a society of people who have no family to take care of them in their old age.
The liberal feminist solution to this problem is to create more welfare programs. What this means is that they want the elderly to live alone in what are essentially pods, their only human interaction being with "care" takers to check if they're still alive once a week.
Let me put it like this. The only human solution is for the elderly to be surrounded by loving family in their old age. The only way to get that is patriarchy, gender roles, and other limitations on individual freedom. But the liberal mind cannot allow any of that. So the elderly will continue to suffer and liberal feminists and modernists will continue to pretend like they care about humanity.
Both 9/11’s took place on a Tuesday
the equivalent of all lives matter.
May all terrorist attacks. In all forms, NEVER BE FORGOTTEN.........

Nope, just suicide.
Throughout my life, I have been in and out of Chile. I know how the upper, middle class and let's include the arriviste, think. Yes, it is a left versus right struggle but over there, it's mainly a class struggle. The class system is so deeply ingrained that it would be safe to say that there are two Chiles. The aversion to socialism by the well-to-do was ingrained in the social system. Of course, the powers that be, beyond our borders took advantage of this fact and became victorious because of it. I am a centrist (not neutral) therefore it allows me to see things without the blinders of extremism. The elimination of Allende and the progressive implementations of Pinochet's "Chicago Boys" have altered the Chilean identity. Chile has been a commercial hub where the love of money overtakes any social mores that made Chile unique. I grieve for what Chile has become.
I'll let Uncle Ari talk about Chile. She is the love of my life but I'm Ukrainian- first and foremost. What I wanna say is this. What Uncle Ari calls " the dictators " and what I " lovingly " call the Blake Association doesn't care one bit about how " a- political " you are, how loyal to Soros and Co you are- if it suits their purpose they're gonna turn on you on a dime. I need them to really understand that. In 2013 before the coup I was literally doing " What Is In My Bag " on UA-cam. Didn't " save " me or my loved ones.
Tienes todo la razón, vivo aquí y observó lo mismo. La identidad nacional y la valoración de la democracia son dos valores medios perdidos, se valora solamente el "éxito" económico, la plata fácil. Sin embargo no está todo perdido ya qué vi mucha gente joven en la conmemoración de esta triste fecha. Muchos no olvidamos y queremos saber más sobre este complot contra la democracia.
Socialism will fix this. LOL

Being anti-communist? I view that as a win win
“ The Battle of Chile” is a live documentary film shot at the time of the actual coup. Incredible documentary.
Costa Gavras’s “Missing” , adapts Ed Horton’s story of his son, Charles Horton, killed in Chile during the coup...a chilling film....must see. Ed Horton, a Manhattan native, was played by Jack Lemmon. I saw these movies in 70s and never forgot them.
Me too 🧐 but we have been unable to stop 🛑 our leaders from sinning 😈😝😫 !

The original 9/11, never to be forgotten.

Wow what a profound interview! What happened to Allende was very sad, I guess the world just wasn't ready for him.
I find it hard to accept that Allende killed himself. He had a family & many supporters in Chile. Would it not be very convenient for Pinoche & the military to say that he had killed himself as opposed to being murdered in the coup d’etat! RIP all those who were killed as supporters of Allende.
@@juanleahy2202 I am sure he was murdered.
@@chloeuntrau4588 there are some serious questions that needs to be answered. The initial report was that he short himself,but
Luis Ravanal has been studying the autopsy for four years, and he believes otherwise.
Ravanal says he found details in the autopsy that weren't in line with the official version of Allende's death. The cranium, he says, shows evidence of a first shot with a small gun, like a pistol, and then, a second shot from a larger weapon - like an AK-47 - which could mean that Allende was shot and killed, then shot a second time with his own gun, to make it look like suicide.
keep on obsessing about irrelevant nonsense@@sammyo2583
Aka, the US.
Thank you so much for teaching us about the other 9/11 ❤
Terrible day for the USA . R.I.P
EVEN more terrible for Chile, the twin towers was only 1 day and 15 years of grief before people joked about it, Chile almost 30 years yet still grieving

@@jzoobs thank you
I think of Chile often, and I remember this day every year. Pinochet's coup took place 7 months before we, in Portugal, had the carnation revolution, that freed us from 50 years of fascist dictatorship. So Chile was very much in our minds on April 25, 1974, and it still is.
As an American citizen, I was so ashamed of our country. Our foreign policy at the time forced countries to turn to the Communists because it was our way or no way.
You're brainwashed. "our way" or "no way"...no, that's not true, and you know that because of all the countries in the world that do not do it "our way" or "communist way" and are doing fine and have lots of trade with our country and other countries. If you want, I can break down how much of what Ariel Dorfman is wrong, and I don't know if he just chooses to cherry pick to fit his narrative or if he's more active in rejecting verifiable facts which are there.
Makes you not want to vote democrat doesn't it

"Britain’s collaboration with the Chilean dictatorship continued in full knowledge of the atrocities being carried out by Pinochet’s torturers and executioners. The UK’s ambassador to Chile Reginald Secondé reported how “The extent of the bloodshed has shocked people,” but commented coldly of the repression, “the lack of political activity is, for the time being, no loss”."

my friend and classmate in hs and college charles horman was murdered by the cia during the overthrow.
My sincerest condolences. A dear friend of my godmother's, Jack Lemmon, played his father in the movie. And now we have another American- Gonzalo Lira in Ukraine- whose life is in danger for the same reason but Uncle Ari prefers to pretend that Gonzalo doesn't exist. Oh, well... Sooner or later everyone betrays everyone. And Dorfman was my hero. He and Michelle Bachelett. Guess not anymore.

September 11, 1973. The death of democracy.
Communism* I fixed it for you. Despite that... The beginning of a interesting regime.
Nothing has changed actually, US is playing the same game elsewhere now, presently one of many US backed coup is ongoing in Pakistan, where a democratically elected prime minister was ousted by US backed military establishment, a renowned journalist was compelled to leave his country later assassinated in Kenya, another journalist is still missing probably kidnapped by pakistani intelligence agency, many journalist fled the country and taking asylum in West, more than 10s of thousands political prisoners in jails from months yet to be convicted, the only majority political party leadership is either forced in hiding in jail or disappeared, when all this is happening in one country the West and so called civilised human rights advocate countries are 🙈🙉🙊.
Once again you're " conveniently " forgetting Ukraine.
@tatianalyulkin410 it's a tragedy of a nation when US topples a well functioning government and instate a weak, dependent, illegitimate ruler, they actual make the mockery of a nation that people don't matter, humans have no rights as long as a puppet is serving their interests he can do whatever he pleases, nowadays a comedian is playing role of a macho in Ukraine, what could be more ironic, they control the voice they control the views, we can just sit and watch whatever is shown to us.
This is been going on for thousand years, all over the world. It is nothing new.
This is what the US does. They have army bases all around the world yet they are so worried about china
Nice piece. Interesting about Dorfman.
Shame on the "democracy's herald" in the world!
And communists are better? Talk about hypocrisy and double standards of people that don't know the history... Or their own.
Salvador Allende was murdered.
So? So was Paul Robeson. So was Victor Jara. So was Pablo Neruda. So was MLK. So was Malcolm X. So were my parents and my brother. Your point being?
For millenia kings and presidents have been murder. Who was Allende the mesager? They killed Jesus the mesager too.
Insightful discussion
17:18 - I have to say that I think the obsession with whether Allende committed suicide or was murdered by the attackers of La Moneda is *bizarre*. Why is it dishonorable if Allende killed himself rather than be taken alive (as I believe he did)? Pinochet forces, before completing the coup, allegedly offered Allende safe passage to Cuba and he refused. One might argue (though I wouldn't) that exile under those circumstances would have been cowardly. But how can his determination to remain in the Palace until the very end be cowardly? It seems like a macho or even a Catholic thing to hold him in contempt for reacting to a hopeless situation by taking his own life. In any case, the important thing is the way Allende lived, not the circumstances of his death. For me, Allende was a hero, and whether his enemies killed him or whether he did the job himself is totally irrelevant.
Allende’s suicide was not cowardly. As he said before his death, he was not going to surrender. He chose death over fleeing the country or turning himself in to Pinochet’s forces.
Chilean 9/11/1973 is not the other 9/11 it the original 9/11
Thank You Democracy Now. It's hard to see this. Can't imagine how hard it is to report it. ✨🇺🇸✨

Thatcher made remarks about the Queen dancing with a Black PM and was later voted out of office.
Thatcher was a racist, she had been head of UK's Education system and she was known as " Margaret Thatcher the milk Snatcher " by British school children when she removed the half pint of milk they got with their school lunch.
This inspired President Reagan to economize and take away a vegetable in the American school lunch program.He said ketchup was a vegtable so they didn't need another vegetable. Actually, tomato is designated as a fruit !
Reagan also sent Tommy Sands to Thatcher and he went in a hunger strike and died in prison 61 pounds with his bones protruding out of his skin and had to be raped up.
I remember thatcher gave Pinochet asylum and saw her on tv saying how great Pinochet was for stopping communism. Rightoid ghouls stick together

The interference in Chile was clearly a mistake on multiple levels. However, the magnitude of damage was far less than that caused by the NATO-led (US financed) intervention in Libya in 2011. Twelve years later Libya remains a failed state by any measure. Chile has an ex-pat community that keeps the Allende coup out in the global public’s eye, but in terms of scale and fatalities it is among the least costly compared to interventions in Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya, Haiti, etc.
The "interference" in Chile cost millions of lives, directly and indirectly over decades to the present day. It forever changed Chile's destiny, and also further destabilised the entire LatAm region. The U.S. coup against this democratically-elected, pacifist president waa not the first of the U.S.' global atrocities, but rather a continuatuon of the horrors it had visited on LatAm alone (!) since the Monroe Doctrine.
In sum, it's not a Victimhood Olympics. Regardless, every instance of U.S. greed, mayhem, and murder that has plagued those countries that have something of interest to the U.S. power base has been tragic and has lasting consequences for all of us.
To understand America is to understand this coup. America feels more and more foreign to me where everyone is out for themselfs and material gain is all that is offered. It is as if it is a lost soul.
This has always been America. Since it's founding.

We’ll, I salute Dorfman for being critical of certain mistakes by the movement led by the great Salvador Allende, but he fails to be more critical of current US stands and mainstream stance against Latin American. Frankly speaking, I feel he’s become to Americanized and self indulged with his art form… At any rate, I still find him valuable in Academia for his overall body of work…, but somewhere he stopped being what Pablo Neruda aimed all his life: to “be Chilean in perpetuity”🇨🇱💪🏼👍
I know. He's silent on Ukraine. So is Michelle Bachelett. Oh, well...
Everyone conveniently forgets all the other coups. 😠
Coup is not the problem anymore than a weapon. They are means to an end. The problem is the motives for the end. I can't think of any American motives other than sheer greed.

Recap by Tammy AI
Let's call it the original September 11
So you tone down the American 9/11 by bringing up someting unrelated? This is very tacky. Maybe you should interrupt to talk about the slaughter of Native Americans. Maybe slavery. Anything to lessen the importance of the attacks on the trade centers. Maybe you could have done the stories an hour apart.
Venezuela is a socialist democracy.
Glad we didn't interfere with that successful revolution.
A bit of irony there. Is there a democracy that was not interfered with, or overthrown by the U.S. because it wanted to keep its natural resources for the benefit of its citizens?
Believe me diego, THEY TRIED.!!!!!!

Venezuela is a poor country now, with 5 million refugees.
I don't like socialist countries.
I don't like poverty.
Funny a lot flocked to Chile. Perhaps Venezuela needs a Pinochet to set things right.
The real question to ask after 2001;
What's the proper Role of Government in our Lives after the fact?!
Pinochet was the Zelensky of that time.
Right?
Yes. Of course our Uncle Ari doesn't think so. He's against the evil Putin. 🤣
Like the first comment I got on Dorfman's board was " You're Putin's troll. " In 2014 the FBI was trying to convince me I was Victor Jara's troll.
ICC did you hear that ?Kessinger is a war and then he’s alive. It’s never too late for Justice.
