La historia paralela

When des­cri­bing someone who lives accor­ding to his values or ethics the phrase “a phi­lo­sophy of life” is gene­ra­lly used. When tal­king about a phi­lo­sophy appli­ca­ble to govern­men­tal poli­cies, a refe­rence to the prin­ci­ples that jus­tify those poli­cies should be given.

Howe­ver, those prin­ci­ples equi­va­lent to a phi­lo­sophy of life do no lie behind the dif­fe­rent Latin Ame­ri­can admi­nis­tra­tions that try to jus­tify their tota­li­ta­rian regi­mes wit­hout taking into account neit­her the fee­lings nor the needs of the people.

The ille­gi­ti­mate beha­viour of uns­cru­pu­lous poli­ti­cians has taken dif­fe­rent coun­tries like Argen­tina, Vene­zuela, Boli­via, and recently Ecua­dor, to ins­ti­tu­tio­nal chaos. Pre­viously, the Cuban revo­lu­tion had redu­ced the island’s popu­la­tion to ser­vi­tude, being hard to unders­tand why the situa­tion is still going on 48 years after.

Though some­ti­mes cer­tain repro­ba­tion to Castro’s beha­viour has been heard, the rebuff has always been weak, exis­ting an inter­na­tio­nal accep­tance of the situa­tion. “Poor Cubans; some day, with luck, things will change for them”. Yet, the same Castro-communism that ens­la­ves its own peo­ple is exten­ding itself in the region, mainly due to the new dis­ci­ple in Venezuela.

Hugo Chá­vez, follo­wing the exam­ple of his Cuban mas­ter, fos­ters the same sub­ju­ga­ting poli­cies through the des­truc­tion of the state of right, the public inse­cu­rity and vio­lence, the press cen­sors­hip, the people’s impo­ve­rish­ment and sys­te­ma­tic atta­cks to the ins­ti­tu­tions and reli­gious faith.

It is a can­cer infi­xed in the Carib­bean that spreads throughout the region with the com­pli­city of admi­nis­tra­tions that accept the mar­xist ideo­lo­gies. Such is the case of the Argen­tine govern­ment that increa­sed its staff with rem­nants of sub­ver­sive groups which in the 70s tried to impose them­sel­ves vio­lently, imi­ta­ting the Cuban dictatorship.

It is impos­si­ble to for­get Ernesto “Che” Gue­vara, the gue­rri­lla ins­pi­rer who joi­ned the Castro’s mes­sia­nic pro­ject of taking the revo­lu­tio­nary pes­ti­lence to the Carib­bean Pearl and then try to repeat the expe­rience in other coun­tries, hid­den behind a roman­tic ideal image when in fact was con­cea­ling the per­so­na­lity of a bru­tal serial killer.

A lot has been done in the region to erra­di­cate evil. The break-in of terro­rist groups which first infil­tra­ted the poli­ti­cal par­ties and then the natio­nal life trig­ge­red a dirty war that was not sup­por­ted by the com­mu­nity, decla­red enemy of these ideologies.

An impor­tant bloods­hed took place at those times when the citi­zens should live toget­her with the hazards of terro­rism. Once defea­ted, the res­pon­si­ble terro­rists were sued and con­dem­ned by Jus­tice for their cri­mes. Later they were gran­ted amnesty by oppor­tu­nist admi­nis­tra­tions and are back today, crou­ched behind popu­list pseudo-democratic regi­mes, pro­po­sing a XXIst Cen­tury Socia­lism adap­ted to the thin­king of the Cuban tyrant, which lacks any con­tent that may resem­ble a “phi­lo­sophy of life”

Psy­cho­tic mani­pu­la­tion coming from hatred and reveng vin­di­cate a dread­ful past initia­ted in Gramci’s stand­points. Kir­ch­ner, Chá­vez and Mora­les are the per­for­mers of this poli­ti­cal plan aimed at sub­ju­ga­ting the peo­ples by means of a past per­verse ideology.

It is hard to believe that some keep tal­king about the “Cuban Model” as a bet­ter­ment of life qua­lity, even kno­wing what is going on and what is daily repor­ted by the huge Cuban diaspora.

While the society remains hel­pless wit­hin a fic­ti­tious world ari­sing from vic­ti­mi­za­tion, phony cri­mes and eco­no­mic magic inten­ded to dis­tract and hide the ambi­tions of per­pe­tual dic­ta­tors­hips, evil is coming closer.

Only a brave atti­tude on the part of the citi­zens­hip of the mena­ced coun­tries, all toget­her deman­ding the infor­ce­ment of the state of right, will allow the revi­val of our lost repu­blics.
