human beings we tend to be passionate when we think about politics and sport. This is understandable and even justified because almost everyone has a lean, more or less, to political party and we support a football team or baseball. Who should be more balanced in its views are professionals engaged in policy analysis or sports. By profession and have credibility, must avoid the temptation to declare on Monday that they knew that a particular horse or team would not win, when there were no advance opinion prior to the occurrence of race or party. It is also unethical was wrong to say that certain political action when faced with the uncertainty of the outcome did not dare to advance an opinion.
PASSION FOR ................ |
understand that in the case of some political analysts is not easy to be balanced, as they sometimes are also actors who are fighting or have fought in a match and still have legitimate political aspirations. Therefore it is acceptable that, from time to time, direct their darts against those who do not think like them, but we can not remain silent when it perceives a systematic campaign to disqualify certain groups when the results of certain decisions were not the expected results.
Such is the case of the distinguished sociologist and columnist Carlos Raúl Hernández, who constantly lashes out mockingly against the civil society participation in politics. Forget Carlos Raul, civil society and the media had to assume a role that did not strictly applicable, because the parties had betrayed the democracy and were reduced to a minimum. It was that civil society, media support, which jumped on the defense of democracy, which promoted the April strike and participated in the massive march on the 11th, forced to resign from the lieutenant colonel when the Armed Forces refused to massacre the people. Many seem to forget these facts and they were the oil workers who went on strike on April 4, which joined the CTV and Fedecamaras the 9th. In the day's events 12 and 13, no responsibility or civil society or the
oil.
Hernández continues with his criticism of the strike on December 2, calling those who called irresponsible. Forget the known sociologist who managed to strike that will advance the negotiations in the Negotiating Table and Agreements, by ensuring that the Executive accept the referendum recall, and that the OAS Permanent Council passed Resolution 833, by which urges the Venezuelan government to "... ensure compliance and to protect the free exercise of the essential elements of democracy .... Respect for human rights and the rule of law ... the full enjoyment of freedom of expression ... abstention to stimulate the political confrontation and violence .... To request the Secretary-General to continue inform the Permanent Council on his facilitation efforts in relation to the situation in Venezuela. " This resolution of December 16, 2002, still stands and should be used to report on the OAS to continue the abuse.
is important to emphasize that the strikes are not appropriate or inconvenient, but necessary when rights are violated and in defense of those rights must act even if the results are not entirely satisfactory. It is also imperative to say when you do not agree. In this sense we do not remember that Hernandez was pronounced against of the strike before the convening. Neither spoke as a senator for AD, the Senate chose not to disincorporate vote on the motion to dismiss Carlos Andrés Pérez, but today criticized the decision (The Revolt of the shipwrecked, Mirtha Rivero, pages 332-333).
regret having to write this article, as I prefer to do so against the totalitarianism of lieutenant colonel and clarified that the parties have recovered and are now called upon to lead the fight for democracy, up to society civil support, not to present our points of view, wrong or not. No more political prisoners, exiles not!
