    Not surprisingly, MP gets mislead by the noise of main Argentine media outlets.

    The point in the above story is “AMIA requests the DAIA to drop its Iran MOU complaint against Cristina Kirchner.”

    The AMIA decision follows on the heels of Alberto Nisman former wife's withdrawal from a judicial case seeking to establish that the former prosecutor had been murdered.

    Both the AMIA and Nisman's former wife Sandra Arroyo Salgado, who is a federal judge, know well the two legal actions have been concocted for political purposes and media impact -- but are devoid of evidence that will be required when both oral trials begin.

    The above story contains some of the bogus claims used against the former Argentine president and debunked long ago such as:

    “Cristina Fernández is accused of pursuing an MoU with Iran in order to secure favorable trade conditions with the Middle Eastern country in exchange for impunity for several high-ranking Iranian officials who are excused of their participating in the July 1994 bombing in Buenos Aires.”

    The “favourable trade conditions,” would have allowed Argentina selling crops to Iran in exchange for oil. It was soon demonstrated that Iranian oil's high sulfur content cannot be processed by Argentine's existing refineries.

    The alleged “impunity for several high-ranking Iranian officials” would have Argentina asking for the removal of Interpol “red alerts” on said officials. This claim was debunked just a few days after Nisman made public his famous “denunciation” by none other than former Interpol chief Roland Noble, in charge at the time the MOU was negotiated.

    These and other facts can be found in the book “Quién mató a Nisman?” by Pablo Duggan.

    Arguably, the greatest historical naval doctrine was British and without doubt the greatest military organization was Prussian. Things have changed, but traditions strongly continue in Latin America.

    Your new redesigned “No. 4 dress” naval uniform looks “metrosexual” to me, but that's the idea I guess...

    Most Nazis ended up in Argentina and Brazil. Juan Perón was a enormous admirer of Hitler's and Mussolini's Fascism. Germany. He served as a military observer in those countries prior to WWII. You need to remember however Latin America became a haven for the diaspora of Jews fleeing Europe when the USA actually refused many of them entry.

    Yes, and I have...

    With respect, it was terrible how the late Hector Timerman was first denied an earlier visit for his cancer treatment. I have always had great respect for his father.

    By the way, have you read the book “Quién mató a Nisman?” by Pablo Duggan? I haven't, but am somewhat curious if it's completely factual.
