Videla, Argentina's Pinochet, died today IN JAIL. He had been sentenced to life prison. http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2013/may/17/jorge-rafael-videla He was way bloddier that Pinochet. If the Chilean was more welknown it was thanks to the Communist Party: because Argentina sold grains to the Soviet Union in spite of the US embargo, the Communist Party supported the dictatorship. Years of struggles for human rights achieved one of the main goals: VIDELA DIED IN JAIL, strictly by legal means. What a great year we're having: first the witch and then Videla. Cheers for their death!
