A former Colombian army major has been jailed for 44 years for his role in the deaths of more than 245 civilians. Many were cut to pieces with a power saw.
Alirio Antonio Urena was involved in the systematic killing of people around the Valle de Cauca state town of Trujillo between 1986 and 1994.

He was then commander of a brigade with ties to right-wing paramilitaries, who actually carried out most of the killings.

The victims were accused of collaborating with left-wing rebels against the army, though the paramilitaries are also tied closely to drug traffickers.

The dead included a popular priest and political organizer. He was decapitated and castrated.

8. Don't forget the genocidal monster Stroessner, in Paraguay, who ruled 35 years,

with only hugs and kisses from the "Western Powers," who also opened his door to Dr. Mengele, right after World War II. Mengele spent some of his time in Paraguay, some in Brazil, happy as a clam.

Stroessner was never considered a problem, and his own political party, the Colorado Party controlled Paraguay for 65 years, only losing TOTAL power just a couple of years ago when Fernando Lugo, a priest won, a man whose entire family had been persecuted by Stroessner.

What a shrieking lie we've been forced to live with, while the powers that be smiled sweetly and pretended they couldn't be more honorable, cleaner, and kinder. Boy, oh, boy. *hiccup* (I forgot to breathe.)

9. Wasn't Lorscheider another one. And, of course, there was the Argentinian junta. Just

last night saw a cable documentary of a Mossad operative luring a Latvian Nazi monster to Paraguay, where he and some Mossad associates bumped him off, put him in a case with a little compliment slip, to effect that he had been dealt with by people who never forget!
