Oct 01st, 2010 - 08:15 am - Link - Report abuse 0Re #2... I'd like to take up arms against the Kirchner gang but I reckon I'll just bump some people off instead and then seek asylum in Chile... that should work.
Oct 01st, 2010 - 09:25 am - Link - Report abuse 0That totally frucked up logic says it all about the workings of the mind of the average argentinian..
Frank The Yank, average argentinian not necessarily thinks with that one-eyed-logic and probably disagree with this asylum petition that denies the Chilean democratic institutions rights.
Oct 01st, 2010 - 10:48 am - Link - Report abuse 0But just a glimpse on Hollywood products shows how the average northamerican citizen thinks about their right to disrupt others democracies.
Not to tell you how the US government thinks and acts against other countries!!!
So, to speak about “average citizens” from your perspective only talks about your own prejudices.
Oh Dear... nice alliteration but once again.... not a north american... spent a month there in 1968 and 12 hours in 2006... thats it...

If an Argentine were to use that kind of language on this site his comment would be deleted, along with his account. Actually they get deleted for just about anything on this “independently run Uruguayan site”. ;-)
I thought I was being quite polite... its not as if I called him a Bolivian

Oct 02nd, 2010 - 12:43 am - Link - Report abuse 0The UK's failing economy is so far ahead of Argentina's that in our worst moments we'll still be amongst the world's top 10 .... whereas Argentina will struggle to stay in the top 30 at its best!
Oct 02nd, 2010 - 12:57 am - Link - Report abuse 0And Argentines shouldn't believe what they're told about their economy ... until the IMF check the figures there's a huge question mark!
Re #22... what has the state of the British economy have to do with Think being a Bolivian dickhead? Please try to stay on topic....

The arguments here seems to address everything exept the issue at hand.
Oct 03rd, 2010 - 09:10 am - Link - Report abuse 0Very sad that a murderer got away with it. Trust the Kirchners to do their usual spindoctoring. This crime was commited after the dictatorship when Chile was in a process of normalising their society. There is no evidence that this man was persecuted. He is simply a murderer and kidnapper (even though he opposed the dictatorship) that got away with it. Another bad choice by the Kirchnerites.
” ... Chile’s Senate President Jorge Pizarro (DC) said that a negative outcome for Apablaza’s extradition would seriously harm Chilean-Argentine relations, as Argentina would be signaling that it does not trust Chile’s legal institutions (“estado de derecho).”
Oct 03rd, 2010 - 09:22 am - Link - Report abuse 0So much for Think's much proclaimed unity !
Well, what can I say? What other thing you can expect from a Gvt. that has this kind of attitude as it usual way of action in any matter that it must rule? We, their neighbors, are already costumed to their not responsible and unreliable way to run the foreings (an internal as we can heard) relationships.
Oct 03rd, 2010 - 11:49 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Please, let it be as it always has been, don’t ask it (the Argentine Gtv.) that act as a democratic, reliable, well intentioned gvt. that honour it word. Don´t forget that it always has had double standard to react before treaties, commercial arrangements, due payments, etc.
I hope Iran Gvt. don’t react as Argentine Gvt. did and the AMIA’s terrorist can be back so they face the justice where they deserve.
To those that support Mr. Apablaza, just some words:
The Argentine High Court determined that this man deserve to be extradite to face the Chilean law because the crimes that he is involved were made in democratic times and that the Chilean justice system is completely able to give him a faire judgment.
The kidnapping of a business’s man son was a common crime with the purpose of ask for money as retribution for his freedom.
The Senator Jaime Guzman murder was a political terrorist crime during democratic gvt. ruling in Chile
Even his own partners, out the Chilean jails have declared against him affirming that he took part of the facts.
All the Chilean political parties, with the natural exception of the communist party, have pronounced their disgust for the Argentine Gvt. and have given their whole support to our Gvt. to act as facts determine.
So, as usual I say….R.I.P.Argentina……….Start to cry for you, Argentina!!!
SERGIO VEGA:
Oct 05th, 2010 - 12:03 am - Link - Report abuse 0You are a little misinformed, it's true that our suprem court said that apablaza should be extradicted, but only if the comission of refugees rejects hes petiton of being considered as a politic refugee.
Beside the defense of apablaza said that the only one conection betwen that guy, and the charges wich apablaza is acused, is that apablaza joint the manuel rodriguez agruppation, on the other hand, that comission is also joint by a member of a united nations.
