M\u00e1s a\u00fan, es un sentimiento humanitario que traza una l\u00ednea divisoria entre lo que es debatible pol\u00edticamente -por ejemplo, la firma del TLC o el monto de las transferencias-y lo que no lo es, como el secuestro o los asesinatos pol\u00edticos. Cuando se trata de estos actos de barbarie, la gente no protesta para defender una posici\u00f3n pol\u00edtica, sino para defender la dignidad humana. Por eso, la filiaci\u00f3n pol\u00edtica no es relevante. Todos marchan juntos. M\u00e1s a\u00fan, los mismos que marcharon el jueves pasado podr\u00edan hacerlo luego -y ojal\u00e1 lo hagan- para condenar las masacres de los &#8216;paras&#8217;, o la complicidad del ej\u00e9rcito en algunas de estas masacres. <\/p>\n<p>Por desgracia, la clase pol\u00edtica no tiene tan clara esta divisi\u00f3n entre los asuntos de la pol\u00edtica y los de la dignidad. Para ella, siempre es m\u00e1s f\u00e1cil -y m\u00e1s \u00fatil- poner en evidencia los horrores cometidos por el grupo ilegal m\u00e1s lejano a sus afectos -la guerrilla en el caso de la derecha y los &#8216;paras&#8217; en el de la izquierda- y subestimar los horrores cometidos por el grupo ilegal m\u00e1s cercano.<\/p>\n<p>Tantos a\u00f1os de conflicto armado han ido consolidando en el pa\u00eds esa pr\u00e1ctica pol\u00edtica malsana que consiste en identificar a los opositores pol\u00edticos con el actor armado m\u00e1s cercano a ese grupo. As\u00ed como la derecha hace todo lo posible por meter a la guerrilla y a la izquierda en el mismo saco, la izquierda hace lo propio con la derecha y los &#8216;paras&#8217;. <\/p>\n<p>Que la derecha democr\u00e1tica haga eso no me sorprende tanto como que lo haga la izquierda democr\u00e1tica. Al fin y al cabo, si algo caracteriza a la gente de izquierda son sus batallas por la dignidad humana y contra el abuso del poder. No condenar enf\u00e1ticamente a las Farc por el secuestro y asesinato de los diputados del Valle, con el argumento de que eso es hacerle el juego a Uribe, no solo no tiene justificaci\u00f3n \u00e9tica, sino que pol\u00edticamente me parece un error. La izquierda no pierde nada cuando asume una posici\u00f3n frontal contra la guerrilla y contra sus pr\u00e1cticas; al contrario, creo que gana mucho. No me refiero simplemente a que se condene a la guerrilla cuando comete actos atroces -as\u00ed eso ocurra con frecuencia-, sino al deber de adoptar un discurso agresivo y permanente contra su existencia misma. <\/p>\n<p>M\u00e1s a\u00fan, no condenar los cr\u00edmenes atroces de la guerrilla es, eso s\u00ed, hacerles el juego a Uribe y a su pol\u00edtica de seguridad. A quien m\u00e1s beneficia la debilidad de las condenas de la izquierda contra la guerrilla es -fuera de la guerrilla misma- a la derecha y, sobre todo, al uribismo. <\/p>\n<p>Cuando los cr\u00edmenes de los grupos armados ilegales se condenan de manera selectiva -como lo hizo hace dos semanas la llamada &#8216;Carta de los artistas e intelectuales por la paz de Colombia&#8217;-los actos de barbarie se politizan. Ya no hay cr\u00edmenes sino actos pol\u00edticos. Eso es justamente lo que buscan los actores armados: politizar sus actos de barbarie. Cuando eso sucede, todas las personas se convierten en blancos del conflicto armado, en rehenes. No hay ciudadanos, sino objetivos militares. <\/p>\n<p>Al buscar la libertad de los secuestrados, las marchas c\u00edvicas del pasado 6 de julio dieron un paso adelante hacia la despolitizaci\u00f3n del secuestro, y con ello tambi\u00e9n avanzaron algo en el camino de su propia liberaci\u00f3n. <\/p>\n<p>* Profesor de la Universidad Nacional de Colombia e Investigador de DeJuSticia<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When it is a matter of acts of barbarism, the people do not protest by defending a political position but rather defend against human indignity.
