I don't understand how communism is related to the article. Allende was socialist, not communist. They are different political systems.

  One of the S's in USSR the 'classic' communist country stood for socialist. Granted the Communist party in the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics is probably what really confused most people.

    What they "said" they were was not what they became (by current definitions). There are a lot of European countries ruled by socialist parties, and they are not communist by any stretch of the imagination.

    Then I guess 7 = 11 because the store 711 puts the together... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Communist http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Communist http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Socialism http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Socialism They can put whatever they want in their name, and even mix and match the terms in their propaganda... reality remains that they are different political doctrines.
