From Washington to San Jos\u00e9"},"content":{"rendered":"<p>La reputaci\u00f3n del pa\u00eds no solo depende de que mejore su posici\u00f3n en los niveles de riesgo de Standard &#038; Poor&#8217;s.<\/p>\n<p>Con la reciente actitud mendicante del presidente Uribe en los pasillos del Congreso de los Estados Unidos, muchos han visto pisoteado lo que queda de nuestro orgullo nacional. A m\u00ed, sin embargo, esa actitud me parece menos vergonzante que propia del car\u00e1cter subordinado que tiene el Estado colombiano frente a Estados Unidos. <\/p>\n<p>En cambio, la semana antepasada sucedi\u00f3 algo que s\u00ed me pareci\u00f3 realmente deshonroso para la dignidad de nuestras instituciones. No obstante, casi nadie habla de ello. Me refiero a la condena emitida por la Corte Interamericana de Derechos Humanos, con sede en San Jos\u00e9 de Costa Rica, contra el Estado colombiano por la masacre de La Rochela.<\/p>\n<p>\u00bfRecuerda usted esa masacre? Ha habido tantas que probablemente no sepa de qu\u00e9 hablo. Y, sin embargo, no fue un crimen cualquiera. Los hechos tuvieron lugar en enero de 1989, cuando un grupo paramilitar denominado &#8216;los Masetos&#8217;, con la plena complicidad de miembros del Ej\u00e9rcito Nacional, asesin\u00f3 a 12 miembros de una comisi\u00f3n judicial que investigaba el asesinato, cometido por ese mismo grupo paramilitar, de 19 comerciantes, masacre que tambi\u00e9n mereci\u00f3 la condena de la Corte Interamericana contra el Estado colombiano.<\/p>\n<p>\u00c9sta es la quinta sentencia internacional que condena al Estado colombiano por la complicidad del Ej\u00e9rcito en los cr\u00edmenes paramilitares. En esta sentencia, como en las anteriores, hay evidencias suficientes para desvirtuar la versi\u00f3n oficial de las &#8216;manzanas podridas&#8217;; es decir, aquella que sostiene que la participaci\u00f3n de las Fuerzas Armadas en los cr\u00edmenes cometidos por los paramilitares se limita a unos pocos miembros &#8216;malos&#8217; de esas fuerzas. Ahora bien, el abandono de esa tesis de las manzanas podridas no significa avalar la versi\u00f3n opuesta, defendida por algunos, seg\u00fan la cual aqu\u00ed estamos ante una pol\u00edtica estatal concebida, planeada y dirigida desde la Casa de Nari\u00f1o. Pero eso no es ning\u00fan consuelo. Entre ambas posiciones se encuentra una verdad terrible y desalentadora. Una verdad que muestra c\u00f3mo amplias regiones del pa\u00eds estuvieron -algunas todav\u00eda est\u00e1n- dominadas por los paramilitares, ante la mirada imp\u00e1vida, cuando no complaciente, del Ej\u00e9rcito Nacional. <\/p>\n<p>La condena de La Rochela deber\u00eda servir para tres cosas. En primer lugar, para exaltar la labor que en Colombia cumple la justicia, no solo por lo sucedido en ese caso, sino por lo que actualmente est\u00e1n haciendo la Fiscal\u00eda y la Corte Suprema. Cada d\u00eda es m\u00e1s evidente que la soluci\u00f3n del problema paramilitar depende de que la justicia sea capaz de investigar, juzgar y condenar a los responsables de los cr\u00edmenes cometidos. <\/p>\n<p>En segundo lugar, esa condena deber\u00eda servir para despertar un sentimiento de dolor y verg\u00fcenza nacional, una especie de memoria colectiva, que nos impida repetir el pasado. La verg\u00fcenza es un sentimiento dignificante y m\u00e1s saludable que el desconocimiento patriotero de nuestros males institucionales. <\/p>\n<p>En tercer lugar, esa condena deber\u00eda servir para que el Gobierno comprenda que la mala imagen que el pa\u00eds tiene en el exterior proviene, en gran parte, de la negligencia estatal frente al fen\u00f3meno paramilitar. Descalificar esta situaci\u00f3n con el argumento de que se trata de propaganda pol\u00edtica hecha por ONG radicales y enemigas del pa\u00eds es una torpeza. <\/p>\n<p>Ya es hora de que el Gobierno se entere de que la reputaci\u00f3n del pa\u00eds no solo depende de que mejore su posici\u00f3n en la clasificaci\u00f3n de niveles de riesgo de Standard &#038; Poors. Tambi\u00e9n depende de que los derechos humanos se protejan y los \u00edndices de impunidad se reduzcan. <\/p>\n<p>Ser\u00eda un gran avance si el Gobierno se diera cuenta de que su fracaso en Washington tiene mucho que ver con su fracaso en Costa Rica.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The fifth international sentence that condemns to the Colombian State for the complicity of the Army in paramilitary crimes, should be more shameful for the nation than the results of the presidential management before the U.S. Congress. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":18,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1022],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-25735","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized","subcategory-public-policies","medium-el-tiempo-en","post-scope-aaa-not-blog"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v25.9 (Yoast SEO v25.9) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Fifth prison sentence of the Pan-American Court.
