Monsignor Romero’s Murder: Thirty Years of Impunity
President Mauricio Funes made the following declaration on March 24, the 30th anniversary of Monsignor Romero’s murder: “In the name of the Salvadoran State I ask forgiveness for that assassination committed 30 years ago. First, I ask forgiveness of Monsignor Romero’s family, which has my deepest condolences and my unconditional support in its struggle to get to the truth. I ask forgiveness of the Salvadoran people, who were, are and will continue being Monsignor Romero’s great family, heir, custodian of his sermons and teachings.

The networks of collusion that allowed this monster to hide his perversions implicate former Pope John Paul II and the current Pope Benedict XVI. The scandal has shaken Mexico and the wound in the Church won’t easily heal over.... continuar...

América Latina

A Look at the Gringo Wall
We saw and heard a lot in our 12 days on the “route of rejection,” at the end of which was the Mexico-United States border, the longest and most crossed in the whole planet. There, the South looks North and penetrates it, while the North rejects and fears the South, building walls. The path to the American way of life is strewn with obstacles and Border Patrol agents of the American way of death are omnipresent. But despite it all, I learned that people on both sides of the border are bitten by the same mosquitoes…... continuar...
