This great victory was the result of human persistence, tactical brilliance, and the enlightened thought of Sun Tzu. War is definitely the stupid man's alternative to conflict resolution, and I'm sure the the military, industrial and financial complexes are in "tall cotton" as long as there are wars and idiots willing to use the as an extension of their hegemonic foreign policies.

If it's true that all it took was three hundred thousand dollars to let these Salvadoran heroes go on to enjoy their golden years in retirement, I'm more than sure that the hat would have been passed around and that sum would have been completed in a couple of days at the most. We here in the U.S. have become very familiar with these "enhanced interrogation techniques" the posting talks about and of which these Salvadoran generals have been accused of tolerating. But how can we ever forget that these same heroes won a great and decisive battle for us all, perhaps the last decisive battle of the Cold War. Next time I'm in Miami, I'll have to invite these heroes out fishing on the Gulf Stream.

Strange Fruit seem to hang together.

The $54.6 million judgement stands.<br /><br />The following was abstracted from the website of the Center for Justice and Accountability (CJA), the lead plaintiff's counsel in the civil suit.<br /><br />"In January 2006, the Eleventh Circuit Court of Appeals upheld our [CJA] $54.6 million jury verdict against Generals Jose Guillermo Garcia and Carlos Eugenio Vides Casanova, two former Ministers of Defense who oversaw the worst period of human rights abuses in El Salvador's history. The case was originally filed by CJA on behalf of Juan Romagoza, Neris Gonzalez and Carlos Mauricio in 1999. In 2002, after a four week trial, a West Palm Beach jury found the generals responsible for the torture of the three plaintiffs. <br />Romagoza Arce is one of the first cases in which a jury in a fully contested trial found perpetrators liable for human rights abuses solely under the doctrine of command responsibility. The command responsibility doctrine, used in the Nuremberg trials after World War II, provides that commanders may be held responsible for abuses committed by their subordinates if the commanders knew or should have known that abuses were taking place, and failed to take all reasonable measures to prevent the abuses or punish the perpetrators.<br /><br />In July 2006, with the judgment final, Defendant Vides Casanova was forced to relinquish over $300,000 of his own funds. This collection represents one of the first human rights cases in U.S. history in which survivors have recovered money from those found responsible for abuses. Almost all of the proceeds have been donated to charity by our heroic clients."<br /><br />more info at www.cja.org about the Garcia, Casanova, and Carranza cases.johnnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9177745.post-57179564557163607362009-05-23T08:41:57.044-05:002009-05-23T08:41:57.044-05:00I notice in the last posting (above) that retired ...I notice in the last posting (above) that retired Salvadoran Army officers, Generals Eugenio Vides Casanova, Jose Guillermo Garcia, and CIA paid informant, Nicolas Carranza of the now defunct Policia de Hacienda, who had been accused of using "enhanced interrogation techniques" in their war against the Cuban and Nicaraguan Marxist-Leninist inspired insurgency in their country twenty years ago, have finally had their verdicts reversed by the U.S. Court of Appeals and these men are now free to finally get-on with their lives of ease in retirement, enjoying the amenities offered by Miami with it's natural beauty, great weather and deep sea fishing along the Gulf Stream. A well deserved reward for these battle hardened men with so many years of sacrifice and service to their country and the free world under their belts, as depicted by the shoulder patch of one Salvadoran elite commando unit, "Communism Stops Here."

It's a dreadful place and the people living there are like pickled herring.

Explain to me how in a country of so many so called educated and civilized people can a pestilant river like Acelhuate even exist. I've seem photographas taken of that river sometime in the 19th century and it was a lovely stream passing through the captal city. What in God's name is wrong with you people? You live in an overturned garbage can and even the poorest of the poor can have pride in themselves and keep themselves and their kids clean. Spanish people I've known are very nice, and Indian people I've met are exceptionally polite and proud. But you mix both races together and you get an amalgamation that is too nasty to describe.
