Now that they have that out of the way they can get back to denying the holocaust and wishing Israel was wiped off the face of Earth.

Good job Timerman, your family must be so proud of you.

@2 No, no, no. They are very good at setting up “commissions”. The National Commission on the Disappearance of Persons WAS set up in 1983. But, although it produced a report with 50,000 pages of depositions from survivors, that was more or less where it stopped. It did find the locations of 300 secret detention centres and many mass burial sites. Not much sign of the huge number of trials that should have taken place. How many of the argie military were involved in the murder of around 30,000 civilians? No-one knows. Were our “malvinistas” involved? Probably. Trained by fleeing nazi war criminals. Methods are similar to those of the Gestapo, SA and SS. So CONADEP didn't really have a lot of effect!

Iranian Majlis will vote.... We know the results. Their claim will be of complete innocence and Argentina under Fernandez and Timmerman will follow this despicable charade by accepting Iran's statements. Way to go Argentina,, joining forces with terrorists who committed a terrible crime against Argentinians. No shame...

to 8 fORGETTI,,,,, WHAT DO YOU MEAN ABOUT JEWS FEELING INSECURE, LEARN SOMETHING,,,,,, JEWS ARE PART OF A FAITH, YET, THEY ARE AS MUCH ARGENTINES AS THE REST OF THEIR POPULATION, THEREFORE, THEY HAVE THE RIGHT TO DEMAND SECURITY IN THEIR OWN COUNTRY. ISRAEL IS NOT THEIR COUNTRY OF BIRTH. DO NOT BE IGNORANT OR ANTISEMITE. (WHICH ONE IS IT, OR MAYBE BOTH???)

@3. A tired frustrated and bitter nation awash with “little Eichmanns” unknown to the public (and maybe even the current government to its full extent) but obviously known to one another in a network of untouchability and mutual “CYA,” but available to a truly fully unscrupulous government should the need arise for such talent. I certainly have more than a little sympathy with rank-n-file Argentines, knowing the machine of the Dirty War was vastly larger than what the ledger “cleared”, and how “de-Juntafication” was a travesty. One shutters to know how many Argentines have been cowed into silence knowing that even if they point to someone they know was a true unrepentant veteran of the Dirty War, a reliqury of vengeful invisible fingers will be pointing right back at them.

And now this government wants to do the same model of amnesty with the AIMA attack in exchange for some mutual back scratching. If this is Timerman & CFK's idea of a foreign policy victory, I'd keep it to myself.
