208 / The old remedy
El viejo remedio
William Ospina
Yo sé que quieren que nos alegremos con la muerte de Pablo Escobar.
Yo sé que quieren que nos alegremos con la muerte del Mono Jojoy.
Yo sé que quieren que nos alegremos con la muerte Marulanda.
And we rejoice in the death of getting even, Sangrenegra of Efrain Gonzalez.
glad I did not. I am not happy anyone's death.
I think all those monsters were merely victims of an unjust society to the core, a company that manufactures industrial rhythm monsters, and I say publicly, that the true cause of all these monsters is the old Colombian leadership, which has model supported by centuries of class society, racist, exclusive, where the law is for the poncho, and where the crib is still deciding whether someone will be hit man or president. Both
entrepreneurial talent that Mr. Escobar, become one of the richest men in the world, and dedicated to spend his fortune on revenge of all, make life impossible for others to challenge the state, killing policemen as any American movie, in making aircraft fly air: abjection so can not be explained with a simple theory of evil:
not an evil anywhere becomes such a monster.
And both military talent like that Mr. Marulanda, who gave him war on this country for decades and died in his bed of natural causes, or at most of disappointment, unable to achieve something with their useless violence, but they thought had the luxury of keeping a country in check half a century, and force the state to spend on bombs and what efforts did not want to spend on providing peasants calling bridges and some roads.
I know they want us to believe that these monsters are the only cause of the suffering of this nation for half a century, but I dare say not. These monsters are children of a way to understand Colombia, in a way to manage, one way of governing, and millions of Colombians know.
why Colombia found no peace with the extermination of the bandits of the fifties.
why not find peace with relentless war against the guerrillas of the sixties.
Why not find peace after the demobilization of the M-19.
why not get peace, as we promised, when he was captured and extradited Ledher, and when Rodriguez Gacha was killed in the banana plantations in the Caribbean and shot Pablo Escobar on the rooftops of Medellín, and when they died Santacruz and Urdinola and Doe and Zutano and the poster X and Y the poster and not made peace when he died Carlos Castaño on the thousands of bones of their victims, nor when extradited Mancuso and Don Berna and Jorge 40, and all the others.
For these monsters are like fruits that spring and fall from the tree very well paid for injustice in Colombia. And so, even like us to believe that they will these and a thousand deaths that will bring happiness to Colombia, disorders arising from a stateless irresponsible leadership, I dare say it will not be an endless rain of bullets killing Colombians degraded, but some justice and some of generosity, which may finally bring peace and hope that half of the population mired in poverty, which is the groove where all spring and all the paramilitary fighters and all the criminals in Colombia have been, and all hired children faced with other children in the hazardous maze of hills of Medellin, and wandering lurking in the outskirts of Cali and Pereira and Bogotá. Sure
FARC killing and kidnapping, smuggling and extortion, profane and massacre every day, and of course the State has to fight, and it is normal to low to give the murderers and monsters. But do not call us joy that we do not ask us rejoice without end in every Colombian lost and perverted that falls every day in the eternal hunt for the monsters, and we believe that this old and settled solution is the solution to Colombia true.
Because if we continue on this mental model will not reach the remaining trees to make coffins of all offenders who have yet to be born.
Rather, what pain that this leadership has not created conditions so that Colombians do not have to throw him down headlong in the crime and crime to survive. What pain
Colombia is unable to assure every Colombian a place in the order of civilization, at school, at work, in social security, culture, healthy competition in social ceremonies in the pride of a tradition and a memory.
I personally am tired of feeling that our primary duty is hatred and our party extermination.
Build a civilization. Give everyone a minimum of dignity and respect. Make every Colombian feels proud of who he is, and is not fraught with frustration and resentment. Y and see if Colombia is as bad as they want us to believe those who see the violence of the state an extreme and painful to save the social order, but the only instrument, decade after decade, and the only remedy for old problems the nation.
