To those of you who can read Spanish I recommend following Luis D’Elía on Twitter. Why should he be of interest? Well, the rotund social activist is a prominent supporter of the government of President Cristina Fernández de Kirchner and on more than one occasion he and his followers have provided the street muscle to keep opponents of the government from holding demonstrations at sensitive locations.

Here are a couple of quotes that transmit the broad thrust of Comrade D’Elía’s thinking:

1.

The CIA and the Mossad, that is, the United States and Israel, have manipulated and interfered with the AMIA case from the start, for the sole purpose of unjustly demonizing Iran and justifying the coming military action, probably nuclear in nature, against it. This will have one purpose only; to loot that country’s economy and break its independent and sovereign political model.

If that translation reads a bit weird let me tell you that it faithfully reflects the paranoid, antisemitic thirdworldism of the original.

2.

Here D’Elía describes Sergio Szpolski, a successful Jewish Argentine entrepreneur, as being a “Mossad colonel”.

There are those who believe that the government of Argentina is seriously seeking the extradition of the Iranians suspected of being responsible for the AMIA massacre and is generally doing a stand up job in its pursuit of justice for its victims.
