Ex-governor of Buenos Aires, Iberico Saint-Jean, was imprisoned today, along with former minister Jaime Lamond Smart, in connection with the disappearance of Jacobo Timerman. The very first book I ever read about the disappeared in Argentina, Rita Arditti's Searching for Life (highly recommended, by the way) quotes General Saint-Jean on its first page as saying:
'First we will kill all the subversives; then we will kill their collaborators; then... their sympathizers, then... those who remain indifferent; and finally we will kill the timid.' (1977)
The words speak for themselves.
