Jan 19th, 2015 - 07:22 am - Link - Report abuse 0I wonder if this 'suicide' is the next step in this governments slippery slide towards complete dictatorship. I mean, didn't Putin's rivals often conveniently commit 'suicide' too? Those that he couldn't fit up on corruption charges. I wonder if Cristina is following in her 'buddies' shoes.
There is definitely something 'rotten' in the state of Argentina right now.
SAys it all about the currupt government in Argentina.
Jan 19th, 2015 - 07:25 am - Link - Report abuse 0We should significantly militarise the Falklands. With nuclear weapons if need be.
@2 brasherboot
Jan 19th, 2015 - 07:38 am - Link - Report abuse 0The UK doesn't have land based nuclear weapons they're all on submarines. However, any nuclear armed submarine could easily reach Argentina no matter where it was in the world. And according to the paranoid Argentine President the UK keeps on parked off the coast of Argentina anyway! ;D
But I believe that a Type 45 destroyer has been sent to patrol around the Falklands for a while, which will no doubt send the Argentines screaming to the UN to complain about the UK's 'Death Stars' militarising the South Atlantic.
However, as I stated in my previous post this 'suicide' is far too convenient. Hopefully whatever evidence Mr Nisman found against CFK can still be presented. However if it has all conveniently 'disappeared' then there is definitely a conspiracy going on.
@2 brasherboot
Jan 19th, 2015 - 07:41 am - Link - Report abuse 0“currupt”?
Just why “should the UK ”significantly” militarise the Falklands? With nuclear weapons if need be? This matter is an internal Argentine affair and has no connection with the Falklands/Malvinas dispute.
Just let la Kretina and her colleagues wallow in their mire!
What a strange coincide.
Jan 19th, 2015 - 09:08 am - Link - Report abuse 0Could it be that “suicide” has become a transitive verb in Argentina, in the same way as “disappear” once did?
Do any Argentine posters believe this is a suicide?
Jan 19th, 2015 - 09:38 am - Link - Report abuse 0@6 Hell no!
Jan 19th, 2015 - 09:42 am - Link - Report abuse 0Just shows the desperate depth Christina has sunk to covering her tracks.

Je suis Nisman
Jan 19th, 2015 - 09:47 am - Link - Report abuse 0Sorry I meant to say “ And you think your president is bad.”
Jan 19th, 2015 - 09:50 am - Link - Report abuse 0I am looking for my glasses right now :(
When I read he was to present this evidence it flashed through my mind 'Well, he's probably a marked man...' but of course didn't say it to anyone at the time. She and her cronies are getting desperate.
Jan 19th, 2015 - 10:04 am - Link - Report abuse 0No doubt Nisman thought that he was at risk of a roughing up whilst I for one am not at all surprised by this 'suicide' given the rat is corned and she isn't going to go down peacefully.
Jan 19th, 2015 - 10:06 am - Link - Report abuse 0Nice try though from Nisman but his death is bound to quieten those who sought to ride on his coattails.
I wonder if Jorge Lanata is in hiding yet: after this nobody would blame him.
Cue the 'it wasn't us' claim from Gollum.
So, the investigator into CFK suddenly turns up dead.....
Jan 19th, 2015 - 10:23 am - Link - Report abuse 0that's.... “convenient”.
Depressing.
Jan 19th, 2015 - 10:23 am - Link - Report abuse 0RIP Alberto Nisman.
Jan 19th, 2015 - 10:31 am - Link - Report abuse 0So much for democracy..

Jan 19th, 2015 - 10:41 am - Link - Report abuse 0Depressing, and dangerous.
So he investigates and gathers evidence for years, he decided to go against none other than the president and her cronies and the night before exposing in Congress he just takes his own life away??
Jan 19th, 2015 - 10:41 am - Link - Report abuse 0In situations like this, it's strange that the verdict from the accused is always suicide! They can't even come up with a more original cause of death.
Jan 19th, 2015 - 10:53 am - Link - Report abuse 0Alberto Nisman a brave man!
La Cámpora is already blaming CIA in the blogosphere...no surprise there.
Jan 19th, 2015 - 10:55 am - Link - Report abuse 0Capitanich will make a statement at 08.00. He should tread carefully, his words might ignite the nation.
Oh, l'm sure it was suicide, like bloody hell.
Jan 19th, 2015 - 11:03 am - Link - Report abuse 0One more reason, malvinistas, why we want nothing to do with your shambolic country.
The murder of Alberto Nisman is an outrage. CFK and Timerman should be hanged.
Jan 19th, 2015 - 11:15 am - Link - Report abuse 0I dont rule out suicide but I think his family in Europe was threatened.
Jan 19th, 2015 - 11:17 am - Link - Report abuse 0As others say, this is far too convenient. My first thoughts are that there may be a couple of options. I can't find out quickly whether this guy had family. Is it possible that a family was threatened and he really did commit suicide? Can't rule this out. But the most likely option has to be a hitman. Being found in the bathroom is irrelevant, unless it has an outside window. How easy would it be for a 'government operative', or even a criminal posing as one, to gain access to the apartment, force Nisman into the bathroom and then shoot him.
Jan 19th, 2015 - 11:35 am - Link - Report abuse 0Unfortunately, we may never know. Who will investigate? Why is there no mention of a weapon?
It is interesting that this occurs as an ex-Secretary General of Interpol pontificates. http://www.buenosairesherald.com/article/179820/ex-interpol-head-roland-noble-what-prosecutor-nisman-says-is-false
And also that his name is misquoted. It isn't Roland Noble, it's Ronald Noble. And there are question marks about the latter stages of his career?
http://www.buenosairesherald.com/article/179820/ex-interpol-head-roland-noble-what-prosecutor-nisman-says-is-false
@4. Here's a reason. The Falklands issue is constantly used by the argies to divert attention from domestic situations. Here we have information about CFK about to be disclosed, with backup documents, by a specially appointed prosecutor. Suddenly, he's dead. Probably murdered by a British agent operating from the Falklands in order to throw suspicion on CFK. Can you imagine the outcry? The demands for the Islands to be invaded and the occupants 'punished'? So, yes, there is a reason to put a warship there. There will probably be a fleet submarine as well. Perhaps, 5,000 to 6,000 miles away, a British ballistic missile submarine will be on alert.
Dictatorships always like to blame someone else. Remember Hitler? Remember the Gleiwitz incident? German SS troops in Polish uniforms 'attacking' a German radio station was the excuse for war.
But, also remember how everything bad in argieland is the fault of the British.
No attention to detail.The article says-
Jan 19th, 2015 - 12:14 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Nisman reportedly committed suicide, according to sources, who say he was found in a pool of blood. That information has yet to be confirmed.
Unconfirmed

He was slaughtered by the slime running Arg right now. He was/is a true hero giving his life for the pursuit of truth in a place not worthy of his death. If there are any men left in this country they should riot today but I would expect little.
Jan 19th, 2015 - 12:33 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Last Wednesday Nisman said to Clarin: “Yo puedo salir muerto de ésto” “I can get out of this dead”

One wonders if his evidence has committed suicide too?
Nisman has a daughter - after his murder: Nisman had a daughter.
He said Wednesday
“... le tuve que decir a mi hija que iba a escuchar cosas tremendas de mi persona”
... I had to tell my daughter that she would hear terrible things about me
And the kirchnerite apostles will see no connection. Argentina is now by far a more dangerous place than ever before. While this in of itself is an internal matter of a government operating as a mafio and drug cartel. For the people it means losing connections to the world. I hope this acts as a wakeup call.

As much as I dislike the Ayatollahs, I'm pretty certain at this hour it was the Argentine intelligence service which had him done.
Jan 19th, 2015 - 03:23 pm - Link - Report abuse 0CFK had far more to lose from his briefing to congress than the Iranians
I think its a disgrace that international media dont know enough about the scenario is in Argentina and imply it was Iran in this case
Argentina finally has a brave man only to see him killed by cowards afraid of his words
Jan 19th, 2015 - 03:41 pm - Link - Report abuse 0And once again CFK keep going lower and lower. People are very angry, there might be a demostration soon. However, the opposition politicians are too coward to do anything.

@9 I don't have a President as I am English but I understand your drift…….
Jan 19th, 2015 - 05:28 pm - Link - Report abuse 0It will be interesting to see for how many Argentines this is a game changer. The K's must have been desperate to do this because it could spectacularly backfire if the majority think it is murder on CFK's orders.
I've read several articles published by the Israel media which tend to think it was a Iran hit. They also ALL agree that the CFK government was guilty in protecting Iran from their guilt in the bombings.
Jan 19th, 2015 - 05:31 pm - Link - Report abuse 0So either it was Iran or Argentina (perhaps both) but this brave man, did not kill himself with a .22 pistol. The locked door is just a ruse to cover the crime.
Alberto Nisman was murdered.
If anything the Iranians did it on behest of CFK which I really doubt. I've said for years people investigating the Ks have a nasty habit of showing up dead.
Jan 19th, 2015 - 05:44 pm - Link - Report abuse 0I have to laugh at some of the previous comments over the years of the Rgs on this board claiming they are past all of this type of nonsense. Argentina is nothing but a narco state run with impunity.

Jan 19th, 2015 - 05:59 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Lol
39. Iran lost interest in Argentina and the whole thing the moment the Interpol Red cards were not lifted. So I doubt they care at all. The Iranian parliament when Ahmadinejad was still in power didn’t even approve the memorandum with Argentina and is now boxed. The whole memorandum of 2013 (that was started being cooked up since late 2010 after Nestor Kirchner died), according to Nisman was intended to get the accused Iranians to walk around freely in the world.
Jan 19th, 2015 - 06:05 pm - Link - Report abuse 0From the interviews that Nisman gave in the past days its clear that top government officials traded impunity of the Iranians, intended to set a false clue and version (the so called “Syrian” clue) of the AMIA case and in exchange Argentina would get to shift its geopolitical stance by unlocking the political handicap of the AMIA and then Iranian oil would come, De Vido will get his fingers on the trade between the countries, etc. All done with CFK’s behalf. That is what got Nisman killed
37 IMO
Jan 19th, 2015 - 06:08 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Good for Judge Iijo !!

Has CFK made a statement yet?

I think he had critical information and was getting close to the truth. The thing is, How things will continue from now on?. What's going to happen with all that evidence, i hope it wasn't found and destroyed, but i doubt it.

Jan 19th, 2015 - 06:37 pm - Link - Report abuse 0No need for the coroner or police to carry out any investigation because 'Think' declares it suicide. I guess that's how they do things in Argentina.

Not below your ear I am sure.

It wasn't the Iranians, or suicide, CIA, the British, Falkland islanders, or any other rubbish they will slide out in the media the next few weeks.

It usually works like this when uncomfortable events “happen”. First silence, read and wait for opposition reaction. Downplay and make everything relative. Then throw and then cook up a cynical version completely miss fit with reality.
Elaine, I actually sense that Señor Think is as appalled with this crime as we are.
Jan 19th, 2015 - 07:05 pm - Link - Report abuse 0I suspect that a wide range of political believers (both right and left) are upset with this death.
Think: From personal experience, although we Chileans have little admiration of most Argentine governmental organizations, your powerful and well organized Secretarial de Inteligencia, which, with the exception of Colombia, is at least 10 times the size of any similar agency in South America, has a major headache as almost everyone will suspect their involvement.
They can't win...

If he was murdered then you are not just looking at a corrupt government, but a corrupt police service, corrupt pathologist, corrupt coroner and corrupt judiciary. A dead body passes through many hands.
Jan 19th, 2015 - 07:12 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Do they have inquests in Argentina? the family should be able to ask for an independent pathologist and post mortem.
Depends how rushed the order came in to kill him as to whether they managed to stitch up the full chain of investigation.

El histórico agente de Inteligencia Antonio Horacio Stiuso, alias “Jaime”, se fue de la central de espías con una jubilación, según confirmaron a PERFIL una fuente del Gobierno y miembros del entorno del ex Director General de Operaciones de la Secretaría de Inteligencia (SI). También, se habrían jubilado agentes que respondían a Stiuso.

@49 ElaineB,
Jan 19th, 2015 - 07:39 pm - Link - Report abuse 0It is also how the PT does it in Brazil. About 15 years ago, Celso Daniel, the mayor of Santo André (a progressive town in the State of Sao Paulo) decided to denounce his party , the PT, in what later became an enormous corruption scandal involving garbage and public transport contracts with the municipality. (Lula's first Finance Minister , Palocci, was involved, but 'Lula' said he wasn't guilty....so that was that !). Just a few days before Celso Daniel was to testify, he was the victim of a very mysterious, poorly accounted for, car-jacking....no ransom was demanded, and his body appeared the morning after he was abducted - but the funny thing was, absolutely nothing happened to the driver, who besides being a very shady character, and already condemned for several financial crimes, was a personal friend of Lula's. He was obviously involved, if not the perpetrator, but the PT's political steamroller just squashed the investigation Recently, the opposition tried to re-open the case, which was shut down just as quickly as the first time...
I'm surprised that none of the accused and arraigned in the Petrobras corruption scandal have not been murdered yet....but there's still plenty of time for that ...the closer the investigation gets to Dilma and Lula, people will start dying mysteriously.

Too obvious for any sort of explanation from the Kirchner “ government, ” who is no longer believable by this act. Repetition of the murders and assassinations ordered by and conducted under the Junta of Leopoldo Galtieri

Jan 19th, 2015 - 08:45 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Excellent work! in the advanced countries the analysis of every fibre, hair, shoeprint, etc. takes about 60 hours. In Argentina it can be done in less than 12. Marvellous!
The probability of someone committing suicide and placing the barrel just behind and under the ear would be remarkable. Not to mention someone knowledgeable in the best head shot area.....just at the base of the stem. Typically one sees suicide with a mouth or temple shot. But that is not always successful. Behind the ear is always successful........for an assassin.
Jan 19th, 2015 - 08:55 pm - Link - Report abuse 0#74 Exactly....that room would have been scoured and vacced and they'd still be in there.
At least the world see's Argentina for what is really is. And see's Kirchner as an accomplish and enabler to Iranian terrorism. Nothing will become of this inside of Argentina.......even opposition like Macri and Massi have no balls to do anything.
Just another day in paradise.
Mmmmm...
Jan 19th, 2015 - 08:57 pm - Link - Report abuse 0First of all, Cristina is under our control; she has Timerman as Foreign Relations Minister; he had, has, and will have, total access to Cristina anytime of the day, night and/or siesta; Timerman brought a loud tweet Kicillof as Minister of Economy, who is bleeding Argentina dry; Cristina gave away a whole rich province, Tucuman, to some Alperovich, who is running Tucuman to the ground with feudal rights; Alperovich's wife (preappoint Tucuman's next governor for the next 20 years) is the current second in Argentine line of President succession; Cristina has been bamboozled into creating a “Ministry of Thoughts” and set up a Forster another friend as its Secretary. And the whole country has an inordinate number of controls, geared up to make Argentina a jumping jack.
Second, it is understood that Sharon ordered the 1992 bombing of the Israeli Embassy on Buenos Aires and nobody cared about it, so this 1994-attack investigation began with the idea that was other of those “boys must be boys” mischief (the Israeli Daily Davar wrote Sharon said “I volunteer... blowing up one or two synagogues here and there I don't care”.) (Google it.)
And third, passed several Argentine governments, under varied control of our intelligence bureaus, that ruled and ruled and ruled again, that there was no assurance that Iran had anything to see with it. No counting several oops here and there assassinations of supposedly responsible Iranians around the world, during these years.
But the more important point is that Alperovich has made Tucuman a Mossad Center of Operation since 2003 (don't take my word for, google it.)
So, do you faintly think that under these circumstances, could be possible that Iran and its Ayatollahs have something to do with it, and we not have known it? Not a chance.
Argentina and President Cristina Kirchner, are being used as one more propaganda ad in this absurd Religious War that is ravaging the world. And Humanity. Nisman is one more casualty. RIP.
The building on 25 de Mayo 11 must be like a bee hive right now. The procedure of murdering a target, leaving his fingerprints on the gun he had and casing as embedding gunpowder on the hand...along with being apparently locked from the inside of his apartment is right out of intelligence lore.

Yeah, just checked through the twitter feed #nisman. There are photographs of the people gathering all over BsAs, and other large cities. The power of social media to form protests at short notice at work. You have to wonder how it will escalate.
Jan 20th, 2015 - 12:12 am - Link - Report abuse 0Did the government anticipate this reaction from people? If they did they should have surely hauled CFK up on TV to make some kind of a placating statement or at least to express her 'shock' at the tragedy. Arrogance and indifference will never cut it. I suspect they had no idea that people would react in this way.
@94. Thanks. I haven't heard all the evidence to form an opinion yet. If I were to make an educated guess at this stage I would suspect that CFK expressed a wish that Nisman and his allegations would just go away and someone made her wish come true.

Here's the letter from Facebook I ran it through Google translate for the monolinguals.
Jan 20th, 2015 - 12:50 am - Link - Report abuse 0FULL LETTER FROM THE PRESIDENT
The death of a person, always causes pain and loss among loved ones, and dismay at rest. Suicide also leads in all cases, first, stupor, then: questions. What was it that led a person to make the terrible decision to kill himself ?.
In the case of the ¿suicide? the prosecutor in charge of the AMIA case, Alberto Nisman, there is only wonder and questions, but also too long a story, too heavy, too hard, and above all, very sordid. The tragedy of the largest terrorist attack that occurred in Argentina.
Personally takes me back to past and hard times: the July 18, 1994 was Deputy Provincial Santa Cruz and National Constitutional Convention in Santa Fe for my province. Florence, my daughter had just turned four years and Maximus was finishing high school. Traveling every week to Santa Fe, and that lunes18, horror changed all our routines.
I can not forget that there were two days after the attack, I find in Santa Fe that the July 20, on the occasion of the attack, created the Ministry of Security and appointed head of it to Brigadier Andrés Antonietti.
I confess that when I heard that designation, a cold ran down my back. He still remembered clearly that person. In 1980, during the month of November in Rio Gallegos, placed in our firm a bomb ticking and also broke all gas pipes of the heating by flowing it and turning our studio into a giant bomb, have detonated had caused a disaster. Only a miracle will not let that happen.
Mr. Antonietti, at that time, I was vice commodore and deputy chief of the Air Force who ruled the province of Santa Cruz. We had held a brief telephone exchange that ended when I cut the phone. At that time our study had lawsuits against contractors for public works of the force and auto service Air Group. I see myself still, after so long, testifying before the Police Officer Instructor and collecting signatures for a divo
And so who, exactly, is she blaming for this?

Your being self centred in trying to blame everything apart from what is staring you in the face.

Stop projecting and start rebuilding what could be a great nation like I said in a previous post.
It can be a great country and it needs passionate people to do it...be one.
What never be known is the extent of evidence that was destroyed with Berni entering the scene and compromising the crime scene. It's like the keystone cops investI gating something serious.

Debí suspender intempestivamente mi viaje de 15 años a europa con mi hija y volverme. Imaginarán lo que eso significa. Pero a veces en la vida los momentos no se eligen. Simplemente las cosas suceden. Y eso es por algo.
Esto que voy a hacer ahora igual iba a ocurrir. Ya estaba decidido. Hace tiempo que me vengo preparando para esto, pero no lo imaginaba tan pronto. Sería largo de explicar ahora. Como ustedes ya saben, las cosas suceden y punto. Así es la vida. Lo demás es alegórico.
Algunos sabrán ya de qué estoy hablando, otros algo imaginarán y otros no tendrán ni idea... Hasta dentro de un rato. Me juego mucho en esto. Todo, diría. Pero siempre tomé decisiones. Y hoy no va a ser la excepción. Y lo hago convencido. Sé que no va a ser fácil, todo lo contrario.
Pero más temprano que tarde la verdad triunfa. Y me tengo mucha confianza. Haré todo lo que esté a mi alcance, y más también, sin importar a quién tenga enfrente.
Gracias a todos. Será justicia.
¡Ah! Y aclaro, por si acaso, que no enloquecí ni nada parecido. Pese a todo, estoy mejor que nunca. Jajaja :)

I should unexpectedly stop my 15-year journey to Europe with my daughter and become. They imagine what that means. But sometimes in life moments are not chosen. Things just happen. And that's something.
This I will do the same now going to happen. It was already decided. It has long come prepared me for this, but do not imagine so soon. It would take too long to explain now. As you know, things happen, period. This is life. The rest is allegorical.
Some will already know what I mean, imagine something other and others will have no idea ... So in a little while. I play a lot on this. All I would say. But I always took decisions. And today will not be the exception. And I do believe. I know it will not be easy, quite the opposite.
But sooner or later the truth triumphs. And I have my confidence. I will do everything in my power, and more also, no matter who has front.
Thank you all. It will be justice.

How is it even possible to be humiliated in front of the most pathetic congregation of human beings ever assembled? An oxymoron, your statement.
“La fiscal Viviana Fein dispuso, con acuerdo de la jueza Fabiana Palmaghini, que el arma sea nuevamente accionada, esta vez por otra persona cuya mano será sometida a un idéntico barrido electrónico que Nisman.

Prosecutor Viviana Fein has decided, with the agreement of the judge Fabiana Palmaghini, that the gun is fired again, this time by another person whose hand will be subjected to an identical electron microscope scanning like the one performed on Nisman.”
Thus destroying any and every evidence on the weapon itself. This is either extremely amateurish or very clever. Anyone who thinks a firing test with the murder weapon itself is a good idea either has an IQ below 80 or wants to destroy evidence.
The pistol is a standard Argentine produced Bersa Thunder 22 so any number of the same make and model can be acquired for testing.
No residue found on Nisman's hand - what about residue on the pistol itself close to (every)where a hand grips it ? whose fingerprints are inside the pistol? on the cartridges in the clip? Inside wiped clean is proof of murder.
The cal. .22LR (5.67 mm) BTW is a favorite for clandestine murder, as the projectile is soft and has so low energy that it doesn't leave the skull but ricochets inside the brain, creating more damage than e.g. a 9 mm.
In black ops, the bullets and clip are imprinted as well as the weapon. Looks like the SI screwed up on not leaving powder residue.
Jan 21st, 2015 - 02:33 am - Link - Report abuse 0Nisman is just one more victim of a ruthless government.
It is clear the Argentine government is going out of the way to bury this murder as an coincidental accident. Nothing independent whatsoever.
Jan 21st, 2015 - 02:42 am - Link - Report abuse 0And many accept this version, with statements that the late Sr. Nisman created his own “sordid” affair, and thus deserves what he got. Sad times.
Eventually a Truth Commission will investigate and indict, just as it did with the murders and disappearances committed by the Galtieri Junta
I think that at this point even the government concedes that at least it was an induced suicide.
Jan 21st, 2015 - 02:55 am - Link - Report abuse 0I think we will have eventually a good idea of what happened. The cops that where on guard where probably working for the SIDE
I think that a massive cover up with so many flaws already will leave room for many conspiracy theories for years and years to come, but eventually researched writters and journalists, leaks here and there will give you a good idea of what actually happaned...
Also... What about the SIDE allies of Iran Esteche & D'elia ??? Will they suicide or misteriously suffer an accident?
I think that Nisman's death took this govt by surprise. Not that big of a surprise 'cause they were expecting some reaction. CFK just didn't expect such a far reaching reaction. If she had ordered it, she would have been more prepared to respond. Not so.
Jan 21st, 2015 - 03:14 am - Link - Report abuse 0Someone is sending CFK & cronies a clear message. I can tell that Nisman was not in his comfort zone at all. Let's not get us lost in the fog. He knew darn well what he was getting into. I don't know him personally but he was certainly on top of something bigger than what he thought had figured out.
Without realizing it, he became the pawn, the exchange token of a much larger and far reaching game.
This is just ping-pong. The only difference being that CFK has seen her options narrowed after this one. She will comply. Ultimately none of us will know for sure what went down. The show will go on. She'll reach december 10th, weather INGSOC wins or not.
The sad part is that she will still enjoy all those millions and that we'll still be screwed for years to come.

Jan 21st, 2015 - 07:51 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Here is Argie “Celene” arguing with another poster in the Economist:
“in reply to Ed Straker
Pay attention:
__ I reside in the USA, like it or not.
__ Argentina is paying the debt to the ones that agreed to receive payments thru Argentina's bank.
__ I am only responsable for my financial status.
I am not responsible to pay the 17 TRILLIONS USA DEBT!!!
__ I am not ”defending“ or ”protecting“ CFK.
So do not put words in my mouth!!!
__ I said:
Iran and Israel hate for each other is well known worldwide!!!
Iran and Israel should not demostrates their hate attacking Argentina, a country that have welcome jewish and iranians immigrants !!!
__ CHILE immigrants are found in the southern of Argentina looking for a better life. The well known ”chilotes” are uneducated.
__ BRAZIL is unable to provide toilet services to 100 millions of blacks brazilians that make half of the 200 millions population. Stinky country!!!
__ Billionare George Soros keeps investing in Argentina, regardless of what YOU said!!!
__ Nisman had too many facial cosmetic surgeries which indicates he had serious mental problems.
Is well known that mentally ill people wants to hurts others and then commit suicide.
__ There are protests in the USA on daily basis everytime someone dies specially if is a black.
__ There are protests and strikes in the USA from airline pilots, bus drivers, food workers, teachers, police officers,etc. all demanding higher wages because of the high cost of living.
__ Argentina had WORST presidents than CFK, what YOU did then and NOW to seek justice for 30,000 desaparecidos or the 1982 unnecessary killing of hundreds of argentinians serviceman?
And finally remember that,
Nisman committed suicide because he was mentally ill unable to cope with life.
Argentina's bank is paying the debt.
Argentinians will investigate anything illegal
@174 I think that shows that when people lose their tempers they let their guard down and reveal all their hatred and prejudices. We see it here.
Jan 21st, 2015 - 08:40 pm - Link - Report abuse 0There are many theories being bandied about but almost no one believes it was suicide.
It would be easy to blame CFK - did anyone check if she had gunpowder on her hands? - but even indirectly seems unlikely.
It could have been one of her crazy devotees trying to prove their undying loyalty to her or a La Campora nutcase - there are so many - taking things into their own hands.
Personally, I think this is a power struggle within the Argentine security service. It is fragmented and divided in loyalty. They would have the means and knowledge.
What is absolutely without question is that CFK and her gang are utterly incapable of handling this situation. We have called them amateurish before, making it up as they go and deciding policy on a whim, but facing a very real crisis - a huge crisis- and they are like headless chickens.

It was the Iranian's responsible for the AMIA bombing in 1994. As the CIA and the Mossad and pretty much every secrete service in the world does now.
The only thing left was that Iran delievered the suspects for interrogation by the Argentine prosecutor.
The Syrian clue (that our ever more ocassional K dwellers are willing to lap up) is a false one that Rabbani was telling the Argentines how to plant in the case. That is what Nisman was going to testify in congress and had over 300 CDs of audio of this among other things.
Hope it helps.

I also think its important to remind people here that they are 4 different cases
1) One the mother of the rest, is the AMIA bombings in 1994 which Nisman was the official prosecutor who was named by decree by Nestor Kirchner in his first government years in an effort to be at good odds with the Jewish community in the US and Israel.
2) The cover up of Galeano the first judge that took the first case in the 1990s, that deliberately stalled the whole thing for years and years to cover Menem's government officials and SIDE involvement if not Menem himself. Menem's son Carlos Jr got “accidented” in 1995. [Mossad??]
3) The Iran-Argentina memorandum that Nisman commenced and had being working on the past 3 years or so
4) The actual death/murder/ suicide of Nisman.

Jan 22nd, 2015 - 11:55 am - Link - Report abuse 0Today, with CFK announcing her belief that Nisman was murdered, sort of changes the game, don't you think? The will have to blame it on the Iranians now.
To your question about Jewish representation in Chilean government, Argentina has roughly a quarter of a million Jews, Chile has less than 25 thousand. (We also have about 400 thousand Chileans of Palestinian decent.) Jews feel far safer and less persecuted here than most elsewhere in South America.
As far as Jewish ministers and politicians, we've had a fair representation. (Laurence Golborne and Cecilia Perez are examples.)
Allende and Pinochet had good relations with Jewish politicians also.
Unfortunately, things are starting to get ugly worldwide. I hope the trend stays away from our two countries.

@199 From Bubblear.
Jan 23rd, 2015 - 10:51 pm - Link - Report abuse 0”Nisman legally owned two guns, but the one found right next to his body wasn’t his. In fact, it belonged to “an assistant and friend” named Diego Lagormarsino, who immediately came forward to say he owned the firearm.
According to him, Nisman himself asked to borrow the gun “for safety reasons”. Lagomarsino says the prosecutor told him he had been contacted by the former head of the Secretariat of Intelligence (SI) Antonio Stiusso, who warned him “not to trust his security detail” and “make sure his daughters were safe”.
Stiusso, you may recall, was relieved of his post by the Cristina a month ago after a shake up that was largely interpreted as a power struggle within the SI. The President replaced him with former presidential secretary Oscar Parrilli, a man she trusted.
Lagomarsino testified that he went to Nisman’s apartment once on Saturday, had a coffee and left. is currently staying in a hotel and is protected by 15 police officers who watch over him. Prosecutor Viviana Fein, who is investigating Nisman’s death, could very soon summon him for questioning again.”
Since then it was reported that Prosecutor Fein couldn't find Lagomarsino so banned him from leaving the country, though he was only staying with a friend (not in an hotel surrounded by 15 possible assassins, I mean, security guards) and when he heard the news he called Frantic Fein to say, “Hi, I'm here. Wassup” or something like that. Don't you get the feeling that not one competent person is investigating this murder?

It is my understanding that Nisman was shot 2 inches below the ear, heres a thing, try holding a gun in your right hand and try and shoot yourself below the ear, you will find it almost impossible to do it with your trigger finger, you would probably do it if you used your thumb. It is the most awkward action to kill oneself, better to shoot yourself in the neck or mouth. Looks like a professional kill to me.

Jan 24th, 2015 - 09:52 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Whether Nisman committe suicide or was murdered is significant but not the main question. The question in either case is, who was behind the fiscal. Who pushed him to cut short his vacation and return to present his denunciation? Who pushed him to suicide or murdered him? For those who already know the answers (it would've been the government) think again. Not one but the government was most interested in Nisman appearing and sustaining his denunciation the Monday after his death.

But of course Enricque, it was much more significant when the government was insistent that he killed himself, before any investigation.
It was significant that he was about to expose gross government wrongdoing by CFK and Timerman, but was suddenly dead. The government's only statements were an attempt to distance themselves from his death.
No concern for interference in an investigation, no mention of condolences.
That only changed when it was clear that the people weren't having any of that!
Any “investigation” will be lost as its submerged in bureaucracy, again.
As sad as it seems to suggest that this affair amounted to a government killing an employee in order to silence him/her before the release of damning information, it is by no means the only case.
