The administration of President Cristina Fernandez has ordered the declassification of all files connected with the attack against the AMIA Jewish community center that took place in 1994 in Buenos Aires City. Some of the documents were already in the hands of the special prosecutor in charge of investigating the bombing, now late Alberto Nisman. Read full article

    The AMIA bombing is no longer the point, they were already available to the press, everybody knows that it was the Iranians who did it, including you old whore....

    What needs to be declassified is the negotiations with Iran to whitewash the Iranian oficials and the nuclear-arms deal that came behind it

    I agree, Is this just another ruse to appear 'transparent' whilst hiding the truth.
    They are very good at this. I expect another 'distraction' soon.

    Transparency is rare among governments, and CFK practices just that. The AMIA bombing investigation has been paralyzed for 20 years, including the last decade during which the late Prosecutor Alberto Nisman was in charge. The team of new prosecutors asked for the release, and Cristina just did it. If she hadn't, critics like the two above would be crying out loud CFK's “secrecy.”

    3. The investigation really begun in 2004 when Nisman was appointed prosecutor.
    In a few years his investigation concluded, and since then he was waiting to get the Iranians to sit before an Argentine court. Iran refused to deliver the suspects to the Argentine justice.

    Now how can that be Nisman's fault... Or is he Rambo and must go into Iran undercover kidnap the suspects and bring them to Argentina???

    Old stupid cunt.

    @5. How curious. A 20-year investigation started by the one-eyed git where documents were kept from the special prosecutor. But it was just another scam. “Look, we're investigating. I've even appointed a special prosecutor”. Note: “Here's a list of the documents he can be allowed to see”.

    Is 'transparency' rare? It depends on whether or not you already know the answers. Of course, Nestor already knew. That's why it's a scam.

    Let's look at the likely reality. Iran only said, loudly, “Jews need to be killed wherever they are”. Fanatical, murderous arabs got the idea. Plenty of fanatical, murderous arabs around. Take a look at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_designated_terrorist_organizations
    Very nearly all based on the idea that land stolen from Jews by arabs shouldn't be given back and that, to avoid criticism, all Jews should be murdered.

    In reality, the legal authority for the territory concerned at the time decided it should be the Jewish homeland. Two words that neither arabs or argies take well. Unless they are the 'legal authority'. In 1947/8 thieving arabs were required to choose whether to live peacefully in the State of Israel or move to Transjordan. In reality, Britain should have started bombing to force them out. But we'd just finished a war. We were a little tired.

    But now we should go back. Just a month's warning. Move or else! RAF and Army Air Corps bases along the line of the River Jordan. Combined AAC, IAF and RAF bombardments. A good training area. British forces could be in place for years. We have been in Germany. Dry desert air. Good place to keep Challenger 2 tanks.

    Transparency, do you know the meaning?
    If the K's were that transparent then they would have declassified the documents 21 years ago, did they have something to hide then apart from the documents and how many incriminating documents have mysterially gone missing?

    “If the K's were that transparent then they would have declassified the documents 21 years ago.”
    The “Ks” came to power nine years after the AMIA bombing. Interference during Carlos Menem's presidency and Judge Galeano's botched investigation prevented a quick resolution right after the attack.
    Kirchner's actions? One example:
    ”Shortly after assuming his functions in spring 2003, (Nestor Kirchner) opened up Argentine intelligence files on the case, and lifted a decree preventing SIDE agents from testifying in the case.” (Wikipedia).

    Cabeza Dura is right in #5, even if he calls me names: Nisman did accuse Iranian suspects but could not get them.
    “In a few years his investigation concluded, and since then he was waiting to get the Iranians to sit before an Argentine court. Iran refused to deliver the suspects to the Argentine justice.”
    That is why the CFK government tried to obtain Iranian collaboration through the now famous MOU.
    Nisman's accusation of CFK's “criminal plan” to let Iran out of the hook contains unfunded allegations that contain fired intelligence chief Jaime Stiuso's signature all over the place.
    The latest attempt to mud the waters is an article in Veja, a Brazilian conservative magazine containing further allegations about Cristina's “criminal plan” to derail the Iranian connection.
    What's Veja's smoking gun? None other than three repentant “former chavista cabinet members” (who now live in the U.S.). If the information contained in the article were confirmed, it would tarnish two governments equally hated by conservatives: that of Venezuela and Argentina. If not, it would at least cast (useful) doubt for a while. Talk about efficiently killing two birds with one stone!
    By the way: Veja did not reveal the three former chavistas' names. We impatiently wait for reliable information about this.

    If you want Justice you dont sell your mother and betray the dead in order to do so, you old arsehole that is covered with shit!!!!

    What CFK attempted to do is whitewash the Iranian suspects not bring them to face Argentine justice in order to get the red alerts lifted and nuclear tech and weaponry exchange between the two failed states.

    And what the F ck would you know old fart??? You know more than the venezuelan wistle blowers that were right beside power and the deals ??? What was Antonini Wilson ?? Ehh¿?? Ohh you forgot about that---

    When are you going to die??

    Hey, Cabezón: are you talking about the three former, repentant, un-named Chavez cabinet members?
    Is that all you can bring?
