While the Government prosecutes people for simply going to the
Presidential Palace on April 12th. 2002, prohibiting them from leaving
the country and harassing them, the man who started it all, General
Lucas Rincón is exempt from even testifying, least of all being accused
of anything. Last Sunday the Prosecutor said Rincón had been threatened
into saying Chávez had resigned. Today it is the Minister of Defense
Garcia Carneiro who says
that Rincón showed braveness and was under pressure that day.
Meanwhile, the other cynic, that modern version of Perez Jimenez’ Pedro
Estrada called Isaias Rodriguez, gives a speech
describing how he had to break the “information circle” to tell the
world that Chavez had not resigned. Neither of them notes the
“slight” inconsistency that it was only their hero and buddy Lucas Rincón who told Venezuela and the world that Chavez had
resigned. The rest is simply rewriting history the chavista way.
Thus, under the outlaw revolutionary justice and logic, Rincón is
declared innocent by all his buddies, without testifying or even
telling the Venezuelan public why he acted the way he did. Everyone
else is similarly guilty, tried and sentenced by the same legal code of
the revolution even before they testify. Such is the travesty of
Justice in Venezuela under the Chávez revolution.
