"Peace justifies the means"
Any citizen astonishes him that the curse Congress a bill that seeks to compensate the victims of armed conflict in Colombia, but also make other traffic - and with greater speed, which is intended to provide legal certainty for demobilized from armed groups outside the law
The awe that mean no more than a feeling of solidarity towards those three million five hundred thousand Colombians driven from farms, villages or peoples, and also to those who lost fathers, sons, brothers and are now a memory, because the guerrilla or paramilitary groups exterminated.
In the corners rancorous voices are heard saying that now the victims are at the level of the perpetrators, all because they now have a book to write, and that grammar depend on their freedom and some benefits, while the attacked must wait their turn to be repaired.
this bill that I mentioned, above the Law 975 "Law of Justice and Peace" has been unearthed from the historical truth that the country wants to know, without let the leaders on the sidelines of meeting its judicial duties. But what is now before us is the "legal limbo", which has more than 20 thousand former combatants ceilings because the Court Declared unconstitutional a law constitutional that would give them the opportunity principle.
For my part I feel anxiety at the thought that the perpetrators, makers of the worst crimes in the country, get to enjoy privileges in exchange for telling the truth, without it resulting lawsuits. These people took up the command PRINCE "justice to the media," while victims were only able to run and save himself or apologize to those who should not be to avoid being killed. I speak of the time that the State did not present to prevent the incursion of armed groups, it was engaged in peace processes without foundation, or when the same gloss over the massacres State and exile.
But before my interpretation is a reality: the fundamental purpose of all these processes is lasting peace. If these people decided to lay down their arms and rejoin civilian life, have equal rights to be valued, but not without compensating the victims, and that the suspension of the sentence is tied to conditions as is well expressed in the article text Seventh, viz. 1). Be linked to social reintegration and economic provisions of the Government and be fulfilling its path of reintegration or have successfully completed this process, 2). Run social service activities with their host communities in the framework of the reintegration offered by the National Government, 3). Fully repair the damage to the crimes for which he was sentenced within the framework of this law, unless evidence is provided that is economically impossible to do so, 4). Not have been convicted for intentional crimes committed after the date on which it is registered for demobilization; 5). Good behavior in the context of the reintegration process.
strikes me that the project also envisages the creation of a non-judicial mechanisms that allow these demobilized contribute to the historical truth, an essential step for there to be reconciliation. That
sense, it is undermining the surprise, disrupt the concerns and let those ideas forward with dignity. If peace is the end .... Welcome all media.
