Pinochet cheats justice - no comments

Pinochet is dead, via Phil. Luke puts it well:

Part of me wants to celebrate, part of me to regret that he did not live long enough to be brought to justice by the courts in Chile.

... and this from To the Point:

The only thing to lament here is that he has joined the ranks of twentieth century dictators that have died a peaceful death in their own beds, --privilege that he denied to the thousands of Chileans he had murdered

Reminded me of this piece about the death of the Chilean socialist singer/songwriter, Victor Jara.
