Pinochet is a closet democrat?

世上没有这样的民主派


我对连岳论皮诺切特的感想。当然，功过不能相抵，那是对的。

这一篇就令人失望了。皮诺切特确实是智利改革开放的总设计师（对社会保障开刀，对外国资本开放），但他从第一天起就是智利民主制度的死敌，更遑论是坚定拥护者。他攫取政权的最初三年手段特别血腥，就是因为智利原来的宪政民主，基础比拉美其他国家更牢固，军方不用如此铁血的手段无法镇压民主派。除了2000多人失踪，后来真相调查委员会共收到了20000多份有关严刑拷打的报告，最后确定了其中18000多份查有实据。皮诺切特更不是主动让权的典范，而是在失去美国支持后依然恋栈不去，甚至清洗军方的政变同僚，以巩固独裁权势。他最后的下台，除了国内的反对因素，也归功于教皇保罗二世，当面逼迫他作出将命运交付全民公决的承诺。结果他输掉了这次公决。除非他还敢与教廷公开为敌，不留后路，也只有下台一条路了。总之，他跟“用专制推行民主，用铁腕扑灭反民主的人”似乎相去甚远。如果说他是为了最大多数智利人的最大利益要搞“稳定压倒一切”，好像没有必要建立空壳公司、在银行为家族洗钱4亿美元之巨（恐怕还不是全部）吧？

比较有趣的还是布莱尔小朋友，布莱尔和他的内政大臣斯特劳还是大学生的时候曾经上街游行，抗议智利总设计师的罔顾人命；对外国内政说三道四，本也是大学生的业余爱好，大多数人上了班也就忘了，也不可能再推动年轻时候的梦。可布莱尔不巧当上了首相，皮诺切特不识时务还跑去撞枪口，看病也不看看地方，被布莱尔用西班牙法官的传票软禁了一年，还威胁要引渡去西班牙受审，虽然最后放回了智利，但让独夫饱受惊吓，期间还发表了六页忏悔录，也算是大快人心事。世界上能像布莱尔那样，人到中年还能实践一下往昔梦想过把瘾的，还真是不多呵。想来布莱尔在唐宁街10号偷着乐。

前几天传来消息，智利这个总设计师也是遗嘱火化，不建陵墓，骨灰分送家人（没有污染智利的安第斯山），看来，独夫虽毒，自知之明都还是有的，这个可以赞一个。
