The Crimes of Comrade Castro

Jeff Jacoby reminds us of Comrade Castro's legacy of murder.Here's a comparison to General Pinochet made by Maria Werlau:

"The Castro regime executed more people in just its first three years than the Pinochet regime killed or 'disappeared' in its entire 17 years in power," she says. "Yet Castro's victims, who number so many times more -- and who include not just political opponents but entire families assassinated for trying to flee -- remain unknown, ignored, or forgotten.

If General Pinochet only had the New York Times and Herbert Matthews calling him an "agrarian reformer" we might be hearing about Chile's accomplishments.
