Another S. American Dictator has had a stroke recently (Besides Pinochet)
Edited on Tue Dec-21-04 08:19 AM by ck4829
Former Argentine military ruler General Jorge Rafael Videla has suffered a suspected stroke, according to military sources quoted by the media.

AND

Former Chilean leader President Augusto Pinochet has regained consciousness after Saturday's reported stroke, doctors at his Santiago hospital say.

2 South American Dictators who were both rumored to participate in Operation Condor and had Republican Assistance both suffer from a stroke in about the same time frame.

What is the probability of that happening?
