In the last time the situation Mapuche have been one topic very important, but not is a bit late? More than 30 persons in hunger strike is too much for can be to listen. The problem about the ancestral land is very old, many times to fight for that the people understand that the Mapuche people not see the land as part of his property, because they are property of the land, maybe this is the point.
The mapuche people have been obliged for to be in a constant situation of war, the kid grow to thinking that the “Chilean people” is foolish -and probably they have a reason- the kid grow to playing of the “paco and mapuche”, it´s very terrible. In that moment we to move away of own our origin?.
I think that the Mapuche not is a terrorist person – or not more terrorist that other persons that today to give them one military justice- I believe that the mapuche is one person that answer, answer to the situation, I don´t agree with the violence but, sometimes looks like necessary and I don´t thinking only in the arms, because in this case the impotence mapuche in the hungry strike is one act of violence too, it´s necessary? Maybe… the other option is follow waiting for a “table dialogue” a little fair, while other peoples to continue die.
For other part with the anti-terrorism law. who don´t is a terrorist? Everybody are suspect, everybody can in some moment to cause terror, is in my opinion a law with many empty is other heritage of the dictatorship, and I doubt that a government of “right” wants to abolish it, considering that the “concertacion” neither do it.
I hope that all can to make up, but is difficult because not is only a problem of the law, is a problem of the conscience.

September


In this opportunity I would like to write about September: what is September for Chile Really? what represent this month?. Well, in my opinion there are two important things until the moment, first, obviously September 18 with its exaggereted nationalism for cause of the Bicentenary, and the September 11 with its silences. I suppose that everybody we are a little tired with everything around the "Bicentenary" topic, because finally: what we celebrate? our history of independence or dependence? two hundred years of what? ... what is that of the "time capsule"? is possible that we put the foolishness in one capsule?.
I don´t understand this event as the great event great really, all is like a performace for show a progress... a debatable progress, because the fact, according with the political "bicentenaria" everythings is good, better and better. If inclusive in these two hundred years of the motherland, we have ours owns heros (not only, Carrera or O´Higgins and his monuments): the Miners. they could have been martyrs of the Bicentenary, but they are Heroes today and this is the point.
so we can say that, the people forgot in the Bicentenary are that that aren´t heroes, the people that not to build the big history and that not is inside of "time capsule". The people forgot is only one spot in the way. For that is important to deny the September 11, to deny the spot and then close the eyes, close the faculties, close the street, close all the places that remember us that not everythings is good, and that in the Bicentenary the last sentences, not always is "viva Chile mierda".
well... Happy September!
