Romeo Lucas Garcia is dead and Oscar Mehija Victores is very ill and unsuitable for trial. Hector Gramajo suffered death by killer bees. The sitting President of Guatemala has been implicated in Rios Montt's crimes. US Chamber of Commerce personnel admitted to writing up death lists of troublesome employees to be sent to death squads. In fact, they commented that the Rios Montt conviction would be bad for investments because it makes people worry that the murder law might be enforced. The court that convicted Rios Montt is ordering that others implicated also be investigated. This includes Reagan Administration personnel still around such as Eliott Abrams.


Has Elliot Abrams ever been indicted for a crime? If so, when where and what was the charge.

He was convicted of a crime in the Iran-Contra affair. He was all over very dirty Central American policies. Later, these old Central America hands were sent over to Iraq where they brought these techniques over there.

It would be a fools errand to even bother to try and find anything about Israeli concentration camps. :roll:
As anti-Semitic and anti-capitalistic as liberals are I find it hard to believe that there could possibly be a Jewish liberal in the world.


Who says all liberals are Anti-Semitic? Who says all conservatives like Jews? Haters include all types.

You won't find many liberals that don't desire to see the Palestinians, or for that matter the entire Islamic middle east, march roughshod through Israel.


So says Limbaugh, Beck, and Fox.
There's a huge difference between wanting to see Israel destroyed, and feeling for the plight of the Palestinian people.

Uh huh, well I'm seeing a lot of "feeling" from the left for the Palestinians and little to none for the Israelis and that includes in THIS forum.


I fancy myself a liberal, but I fail to recall when I've ever taken on a blatant Anti-Israeli stance.
My Dad had been a very Pro-Israeli liberal, taking a very harsh Anti-Arab stance in his lifetime.
My Dad and I are hardly the only such persons, I'm sure.
Now forgive me, but I'm afraid I have to turn in for church in the morning. This Sunday, church is throwing a birthday party for my daughter who just turned eight on Friday.

I didn't specify anyone but I know that you know that I know anti-Israel sentiments from the left are quite common here.
BTW, Happy Birthday to your daughter.


Thank you for wishing my daughter a happy birthday; I appreciate the kindness.
