Pinochet's family complains ex-dictator "demonized"

Pinochet's daughter is complaining that her father is being "demonized" in the run-up to the 30th anniversary of the original September 11 disaster, the 1973 Chilean coup.

Whether or not anyone is beatifying Allende, I can't say. But people interested in demonizing Pinochet - a man with 3,000 murders and the destruction of a democratically elected government on his hands - really don't have to work too hard.

It's a funny thing (in the "hypocritical" sense, not the "ha ha" sense) when the perpetrators of crimes claim they are the ones being victimized.
