Eyewitness Testimony
Message from Argentina IMC: Three months ago, Dario proudly showed us a mountain of earth with a flag on it. Fifty families had helped to take this mountain. Last week, he told us that it was ready for people to settle there. Dario was 21 years old and today he was assassinated by the police. The complicity of the corporate media, the sweeping declarations from civil employees bounce against the haunting figure of this young fighter. His assassins will always have the stigma of taking a great companion from us. Dario died like he lived; when a bullet took his life from him, he was aiding a friend who was wounded on the floor. This is how we will remember him for each one of our days.
Dario Santillan of the MTD Lanus and Maximiliano Costeki of the MTD Pte. Peron, both of the CTD Anibal Veron, are the first victims of the new regime in Argentina.
Today, the government showed its true face. In the morning, it militarized all the areas where protests were anticipated. They mobilized the infantry, federal and provincial police, naval forces, water cannons, heavy tanks and helicopters. This is the true political and social regime of Duhalde from now on.
