Chile: sweeping away the dust from the truth - Pinochet had acted to obey a resolution of the Chilean Congressmen

After my two last articles (here and here) some updates and repercussions must be done.

First: the full article from Eduardo Mackenzie on the book "Cuba Nostra" that I translated was published by the main Brazilian conservative website .  See here.

Second: I received some comments about that may be true that the assassination of Allende was perpetrated by Fidel and his agents in Chile but Allende was a democratic - even though socialist - president and represented no threat for democracy in Chile nor to US and  the military "coup" in 1873 was managed by US through CIA and even through Pinochet.

This is a lie! A worldwide-spread lie.
The truth is here.

If he exceeded the legal rule to accomplish his duty, is another story, but the premise was that he was trying to obey a resolution of the Chilean Congressmen.

"It is true that Salvador Allende was elected President of Chile in 1970 by means of a democratic election (although with only 36.6% of the vote). Nevertheless, it is equally true that his government lost its democratic character by repeatedly violating the Constitution. The Economist said it clearly at the time: " The temporary death of democracy in Chile will be regrettable, but the blame lies clearly with Dr. Allende and those of his followers who persistently overrode the Constitution" (September 15, 1973).

In effect, President Allende became a tyrant when he broke his solemn oath to respect the Constitution and the Chilean laws. There are numerous evidences to that effect (including a clear statement of the Supreme Court), but the most important one--and widely unknown outside of Chile--is the momentous Agreement of 23 August 1973 of the Chamber of Deputies (the Lower House of the Chilean Congress), which I have translated and posted as "The Declaration of Breakdown of Chilean Democracy".

And here the full transcription of the resolution called "The Declaration of Breakdown of Chilean Democracy":

Editor's Note: This is the complete text of the resolution that Chile's Chamber of Deputies approved by 81 votes against 47, on August 22 1973. The resolution includes a list of the legal and constitutional violations committed by the Marxist government of President Salvador Allende. In the absence of a viable impeachment procedure contemplated in the Constitution, it "presents" the Armed Forces, among other authorities, with this "grave breakdown of the Republic's constitutional and legal order." Likewise, it serves to "remind them that, by virtue of their responsibilities, their pledge of allegiance to the Constitution, and to the laws of the land . . . it is their duty to put an immediate end to all situations herein referred to that breach the Constitution and the laws of the land." After this call to "immediate" action by the equivalent of the US House of Representatives or the UK House of Commons, the Chilean Armed Forces, led by the Army commander General Augusto Pinochet, decided on September 11, 1973—only 18 days later—to remove from office the President, thus charged with violating the Chilean Constitution. As Benjamin Franklin said, "Resistance to tyrants is obedience to God.")
