THE GENERAL (the coup from the perspective of the plotters, especially general augusto pinochet)
general! the navy captured valparaiso, the ships and the marines are in position.
perfect! how about the radio and tv-network.
destroyed. most of them
okay. send the air force to bomb the rest of them. allende should not know what’s happening.
take care of montero and arrest letelier, they insist of staying loyal and should both go to hell. carvajal should take over awaiting my orders, i’m calling allende forcing him to resign. surrender! surrender! your term is over. surrender! surrender! or we will bomb la moneda.
send the jets, this moron resists being deposed. general, the air force says, they’ll need more time.
there’s no time, the infantry should storm the palace, regardless of the consequences. surrender! surrender! your term is over. surrender! surrender! or we will bomb la moneda.
general, the troops are under fire, there are snipers on the rooftops. they need air support or will have to retreat.
i’m surrounded by idiots, where are the fucking jets? why does it take so long, to bomb one fucking building?
general, the jets arrived, the infantry rushed in. the loyalists are dead or arrested and allende is dead!

THE DOCTOR (the coup from the perspective of salvador allende)
call allende, the navy’s revolting he should rush to the palace prepare for the worst.
i’m here what is happening? we’re surrounded by police, i’m calling the generals, let’s hope for the best
no one is answering, this means they are involved, this bloodthirsty traitors, should all go to hell. i’ve trusted the wrong men, they are staging a coup, let’s speak to the people, put their minds at ease
„confirmed reports indicate, that a sector of the navy has rebelled[...], i wait for the soldiers[...] to defend, laws and the constitution[...], be alert and vigilant“
allende the plotters are answering, they’re offering an airplane if you decide to surrender
what the fuck? give me the phone! you treacherous shits stuff your plane up your asses. i will not surrender, nor will i resign. be alert and vigilant
„this will surely be the last time i speak to you! [...]it doesn’t matter. you will continue hearing me. [...]the people ought to defend themselves,[...] but not sacrifice themselves[...]“
tank guns firing at la moneda. shattering windows and destroying whole walls
lay down your weapons and surrender. leave the building aslong as you can
bombs drop and are blowing some doors of. soldiers rush in and take the first floor
there’s no way out of this bulding, except the bullets in my gun be alert and vigilant!
this will surely be the last time i’m breathing in! it doesn’t matter i will always be with you
the people ought to defend themselves, i’m sure my sacrifice will not be in vain
