Argentine Jews urge president to help solve terror bombing

[bemildred]

BUENOS AIRES, Argentina — Jewish leaders asked President Mauricio Macri to help solve Argentina’s worst terrorist attack as the country observed the bombing’s 22nd anniversary Monday.

The 1994 attack on the Argentine-Israeli Mutual Association collapsed the organization’s main building, killing 85 people and leaving hundreds injured in the rubble.

During the ceremony Monday, Macri presented a flower wreath as sirens blared and the families of the victims held photographs of their loved ones.

Survivors also criticized previous governments for not solving the crime.

1. They can´t expect much from the man whose police chief was involved in the cover-up from the start

(as well as illegally wiretapping and harassing Jewish community leaders who were asking too many questions).

Small wonder that Diana Malamud, head of Active Memory (one of the three leading AMIA victims rights groups), is hitting Macri for ¨undoing all that has been accomplished thus far.¨ The other two groups feel likewise.

In any case, the truth is very unlikely to ever come out, given what we already know about the case. http://www.democraticunderground.com/1017244358#post3

Thank you, bemildred, for keeping us updated.

3. I've been watching that story a long time now.

The way they stall and drag it out, you might think they don't really want it solved.
