WE WANT DEMOCRACY.

Signed on 21 December 2009, the PNDH3 aims, including the establishment of the National Commission of Truth, with the task of promoting public awareness of human rights violations, we mean clear issue of dead and missing victims of the period dictatorship, perpetrated by agents of the State's priority is repeal of the Amnesty Law.
Recall:
Law of amnesty is the popular name of the law No. 6683, which was promulgated by President Figueiredo on 28 August 1979, even during the military dictatorship, and which reads as follows:
Article 1 is hereby granted amnesty to all those in the period from September 2, 1961 and August 15, 1979, have committed political crimes or associated with them, electoral crimes, those who had their political rights suspended and the servers of the Direct Administration and indirect, foundations linked to the government, the servers of the Legislative and Judiciary, the Military and managers and union representatives, punished on the basis of institutional acts and Pensions (vetoed).
§ 1 - are considered related for purposes of this article, the crimes of any nature relating to crimes committed by politicians or politically motivated. [1]
A fight for amnesty began in Brazil in 1968 by students, journalists and politicians and just adding accessions popular. In Brazil and abroad have formed committees which brought together children, mothers, wives and friends of political prisoners to defend a broad amnesty, general and unrestricted to all Brazilians in exile in the period of political repression. In 1978 was created in Rio de Janeiro, the Brazilian Committee for Amnesty brings together several civil society organizations based in the Brazilian Press Association. http://pt.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lei_da_anistia_ (Brazil)


The question of torturers


> While on the one hand some lawyers, and even the Attorney General's Office - the opinion - say that the Amnesty Act Brazilian torturers also benefits for other sectors of society disagree with that interpretation.
In an opinion attached to the lawsuit filed in Justice of Sao Paulo at the request of the Public Ministry (MP) against two former commanders of Operations Detachment Information Operations Center of Homeland Defense (DOI-Codi) - The retired Army colonels Carlos Alberto Bright Ustra and Audir Santos Maciel, accused of human rights violations such as illegal imprisonment, torture, murder and forced disappearance of persons during the military regime. the Solicitor-General of the Union (AGU) argues that political or related crimes committed during the dictatorship, including torture, have all been forgiven by the Amnesty Law of 1979. In its claim that the amnesty law predates the Constitution and therefore the effects of the constitutional clause that prohibits amnesty for torturers would not be worth for crimes committed before its enactment. "Thus, the seal granting amnesty for crimes for torture, under the Constitution of 1988, can never rewind to reach the Law No. 6683 of 28 August 1979, in view of the constitutional principle of retroactivity of Criminal Law.
In addition, several organizations that protect human rights, the families of political victims and support the thesis that the Amnesty Law did not receive the "state agents" who have committed torture and killings during the military dictatorship saying that the text of the law say that, nor could say, since Brazil has signed several documents of the United Nations, according to which torture is a common crime, and indefeasible [3].
The truth is that this law has brought peace and tranquility necessary for the democratization of the country, I remember very well the images of Brazilian exiles landed, greeted with celebrations, flowers, family, friends, political supporters in times of great joy for all us. One image in particular stands out in my mind that it was the turn of the Gabeira and see what it thinks the possibility of revocation of the amnesty law, in an article published in OGLOBO of 07/01/2010.
"I am against the revision of the Amnesty Act of 1979. Would revive a war that ended 30 years ago, creating an element of discord in the relationship with the military, bringing biases of the past to complicate the present. "

"Those who waged armed struggle against the dictatorship mdash; agravandoa - and that serious political mistakes, including a follow ideological illusion that could have led to a dictatorship of another kind, we have neither the interest nor the authority to open that box Pandora. "

There is an issue, revived by the recent revelations about the murder of former Chilean President Eduardo Frei, who definitely need to be clarified: the deaths of former President Juscelino Kubitschek and Goulart Goulart and former Governor Carlos Lacerda. Clarify any questions about the accident and heart disease that caused a short period of time. But that has nothing to do with a review of the Amnesty Law, which, in spite its imperfections and imbalances, now part of our history. Fernando Gabeira.

Note that the Act creating the PNDH3 with respect to the National Commission for Truth, speaks of crimes committed by agents of the State, other than those charged by deliberately used as weapons, killing, kidnapping, robbing banks, formed to fight guerrillas regime. Here, there is clear intent vengeful against the military, making Dilma and other victims go through, in a clear emotional appeal with electoral purposes.
If indeed the government the repeal of the amnesty law, the consequences are unpredictable and the question that arises is: To what extent Lula and the PT are able to reach in an attempt to perpetuate the power and statehood New Lulista as well Reinaldo Azevedo described in your blog? (Http://bit.ly/6QofLP). Walk to left-wing dictatorship, inspired by Chavez's Bolivarian regime seems to me the intention of the great thinkers of the radical left and outdated of those currently in power. They forget that Brazil will never be a Venezuela, Ecuador or Bolivia, our people have a different nature and as we do not accept the military dictatorship, did not accept this so-called democracy in a republic disguised dictatorship inspired by the demagogic populist Bolivarian ideal of Hugo Chávez.
Our democracy is young, needs reform policy and particularly the judiciary, but the system we want is our vocation, we are nothing more important than the feeling of freedom, the right to come and go, to respect the religious choices belief of others, nothing is more important in that the right to elect and revoke the vote because those in power, plotting against our FREEDOM.
