Yes, I agree as, I recall how Augusto Pinochet was honored by Thatcher.That might seem like old news but, that sticks out in my mind.

Backfired when he was held because Spain wanted to extradite him.

Really? I thought she could have intellectually left Trump in the dust - even when she was in the throes of dementia at the end of her life. I always thought of her as more of Reagan's long lost sister.

Pinochet was also admired by William F. Buckley Jr. and Friedrich August von Hayek.

To this day, there are still quite a few right-wingers who insist that Pinochet was a good boy who din do nuffin.

They once had their own subreddit called r/physicalremoval, but it was banned by the Reddit admins.

Did he not save Chile from Communism? A case of being the lesser of two evils?

Allende was a socialist ... but I'm not sure if he was a communist.

Still, Pinochet was a brutal fascist. Allende was the lesser of two evils.

Pinochet was loved by the right-wing because he, unlike Allende, was willing to let Western businesses run amok in Chile.

Pinochet, Strasser and Peron were also sympathetic to ex-Nazi war criminals like Adolph Eichmann, Boorman and Mengele. Like Nasser in Egypt and grand mufti of Palestine they had no problems doing deals with fascists

Nasser and the grand mufti are still way better than any Israeli leader. The US had no problem installing fascists in North Africa and Italy during WWII. They had no problem in supporting Neo Nazis in Ukraine recently. Zionists worked with the Nazis between 1933-40. Not surprising that you poured put selective history though.

While it is true that what become Likud had offered the Nazis an alliance against the British during WWII, it was the Nazis who turned them down. So, no alliance between Zionists and their mortal enemies.
The charge that Neo Nazis had been behind the Anti-Russian political movement in Ukraine was an invention of the Putin propaganda machine.

I'm talking about where Zionists and Nazis worked together during those years to get German Jews into Palestine via the Haavara Agreement. So yes an alliance.
Time to grow up and stop calling everything you don't like "right wing propaganda" or "Kremlin propaganda".

Well, I'm big enough to concede that those particular guys are, but that hardly means that the whole Pro-Ukrainian independence movement is.
As for the charge that the Nazis worked with Zionists to send Jews to Palestine: you do know that the Nazis were stealing property from German Jews, then kicking them out of the Third Reich, don't you? Not exactly beneficial for those expatriate German Jews.

They were the main group and there were others too.
Nazis wanted Jews out of Germany, Zionist leaders wanted Jews out of Germany and into Palestine. Really isn't that surprising it happened if you approach it with an open mind.

Nazis looted from Jews. Zionist groups have also looted from Jews.
