No it doesn't support all Python operators.

>>> ast.literal_eval('2*3')
Traceback (most recent call last):

And shouldn't. It supports "+" and "-" only because they are needed for support of complex "literals". It is unintentional side effect, that ast.literal_eval() supports not only "2+3j", but "2+3" too.
