I don't suggest that those who think differently be given a Time
Machine tour to Argentina, jan-march 1976 (that is during the last 90
days of the Isabel Perón regime). But it would be a sobering
experience, indeed. This regime was overwhelmingly inept and brutally
violent. It was overthrown under imperialist auspices on March 24,
1976.

Perhaps some forget these issues -and their consequences.

I don't.

Our local Tsvangirais, Raúl Alfonsín as the cheerleader, supported the
military overthrow of Isabel Perón (Communist Party included, and as
late as 1978 they were still supporting, yes, supporting the military
regime in power). They held the not unsustainable hope that once the
dirty job had been done by the military they would be called to rule
over the ruins (in fact, this was what General Viola attempted by
1980). History proved keener than them, and intersected the Battles
for Malvinas in their road. But this is another issue.

What our own experience shows to revolutionaries the world over is: No
imperialist-sponsored or imperialist-backed intervention anywhere, at
any time, has been ever proven to be of the most minute help to the
interests of the local population, not to speak of worldwide socialist
revolution. No matter how monstrous the regime targetted by
imperialists may be, what follows is still worse.

This still keeps true.

I share Lüko's enemy. And I guess I am not the single one.
