Blair, Corbyn And Pinochet Thatcher

[gulliver1]

The Tories seem to have conveniently forgotten . That when they call Corbyn and Blair terrorists.
Thatcher was not just a terrorist sympathiser but was also very close friends with one.
Thatcher gave very strong support to "Torture in Chief" General Pinochet of Chile, and called him a true friend.
She even invited him to tea at Downing St. She also personally lobbied against a terrorist prosecution for his war crimes.She personally conducted the whitewashing of his Terrorist Regime
Pinochet overthrew an elected Government in Chile to gain power and was supported by Thatcher.
Thatcher also classed Nelson Mandela's ANC as a Terrorist Organisation.

Thatcher herself, was fully behind the drive to sell arms to Pinochet.

Atheist, so why have sections at all then? Most ABers stick to the sections they are interested in or Chatterbank.

[sanmac]

Pat, because Gulliver is being paid by the editor to generate extra posts for AB Limited:)

[Atheist]

gness, do you know what went on in South America with the support of USA and (periphally) UK? What do you think of Pinochet? Do you know why Thatcher went for the 'Argies'? She wasn't daft; she saved herself from being dumped by playing the 'let's find an enemy' card.

Atheist - I have already explained that I am all out of froth.

gulliver1 isn't alone in believing that the News section is the best place for his pronouncements.... I am just reminding him that other sections are available and more appropriate.

[Atheist]

Pat, I just think that attacking a post because it is in the wrong category is a bit of a cop-out. I'm sure Gully wouldn't object to the post being moved to another category.

[Sqad]

Most sections are now either empty or rarely used.

Two main sections used Body and Soul and Chatterbank .

Some get away with it...some don't it depends who you are.

[Mamyalynne]

It's continual and even those of us with a patient nature can be pushed too far.

[ToraToraTora]

I have also reported this drivel but as we know Gulliver is the Editor's nephew!

[Atheist]

Would one of you suggest a better category? Perhaps History would be more appropriate? I'm sure many would be happy to continue there.

I’m not old enough to remember Thatcher as a prime minister but my father was a huge fan!

[gulliver1]

Apparently The Thatchers kept it in the Family ,
Her son Mark is said to have sold
45 Cheiftain Tanks to Chile through his own business what ever that was.

Think about the positives that came out of the war, for example, it made the Duke of York the man that he is today. Was this Pinochet or Galtieri's responsibility. Victoria will reveal all, as will Pizza Express.

“Let’s find an enemy card”

The Argentinans invaded British land fer Christ’s sake - presumably you’d have left the Falklanders to defend themselves.

If they hadn’t invaded, there wouldn’t have been a war.

I despair of people people like you Atheist - you’re a disgrace.

Redhelen - I’ll help you out. Margaret Thatcher is the best PM we’ve had since WW2.

[Gromit]

Good grief.
He’d be dangerous if he had a brain.
Fortunately....

[pat2604]

Atheist. Zgully puts most of his posts in news just to annoy. His main reason for coming on AB is to annoy and he's successful!! Basically he's a troll.

[ToraToraTora]

DD: "The Argentinans invaded British land fer Christ’s sake - presumably you’d have left the Falklanders to defend themselves. " - most of the anti British left would have.

[DTCwordfan]

Are we talking the Ducked of York or Gully, gromit? Or someone else.
