differentiating the deposement from the coup in my last edit summary i wrote rv the pov consists in failing to differentiate between the legitimate removal of allende and the after the fact refusual to relenquish martial law by pinochet the text redacted claimed although this call referring the resolution of august for redirecting government activity toward the path of law and ensuring the constitutional order of our nation and the essential underpinnings of democratic coexistence was invoked to justify the september coup in retrospect that was clearly not the agenda of the coup the oxymoric phrasing in retrospect was clearly not is at best pov and at worst merely a redundancy since in retrospect ie after the fact pinochet clearly did not return power to the chilean legislature after the legislature implored the military removal of allende what the passage fails to account for is that allende's military ouster was implored by resolution the coup proper was a subsequent event and consisted of pinochet's refusal to return power back to civilian government
