One of the proposals called democratic state of law in Brazil, was supposed to
investigate, through the establishment of special commission - the National Commission of
Truth - installed in an official capacity in 2012 - the human rights violations that
occurred between 1946 and 1988 in the country . Having said Commission as the main object
of examining the actions triggered by the state, which through its law enforcement
agencies and even with the help of private entities and individuals were involved in
violent actions that culminated in deaths, disappearances, kidnappings and torture the
people , because these profess or have thought that clashed with the government regime in
force in the country. The cornfields of pros and cons to their committee has alluded to
several reasons exist, in particular greatly to allow the relatives of the dead and
missing succeed minimal news about the circumstances that involved and seek redress
material state through compensation and pensions.
From long victims of torture, exile, compulsory retirement, resignation for the sake of
public service, forfeitures and other devices used to light the National Security Law and
Institutional Acts, comes also claiming pecuniary repairs, reinstatement to their jobs,
symbolic return mandates, etc.. The whole struggle of surviving victims, the relatives of
the dead and missing, of social movements against arbitrary exception and deserve our
respect, permanent adhesion and practical solidarity. Nevertheless dare differ on two key
points that underlie the so-called Truth Commission, the first of which is the fact that
it has the institutional, therefore, inevitably under state control when it should have
emanated from within society and be under control of the salutary Social Movements and
under close supervision of all who have been victims, including ensuring their presence.
The other is the particular period of coverage for the examination of human rights
violations. Brazil has not lived just an exception period, but several states of siege
between 1889 and 1930 and also a period of nearly 15 years in the hands of a puppet and
his minions (1930/1945), which led the country with labor iron-producing sinister monsters
like National Security Act in 1935 and the abject state of New Dictatorship from 1937.
Victims (anarchists and labor movement leaders) _ oligarchies of state leaders arbitrarily
imprisoned in the Bastille as Cambuci (City of S?o Paulo), the Two Rivers Correctional
Colony (Big Island) Rio de Janeiro, Brazil to Siberia, current Acre, the site reports that
as Dr. Francisco Bento da Silva: "About two thousand citizens were punished by the federal
government in the same way, due to their involvement in riots Vaccine (1904) and Sailors
(1910) and after the term of the site states that were enacted after these riots. All were
exiled politicians as criminals, not as condemned by the courts. " For the inhospitable
state of Mato Grosso, in the railway works as gloomy Northwest, as Fernando de Noronha
Islands and fearsome Oiapoque-Cleveland - were sent thousands of Brazilians who dared say
no to tyrants who lived at the expense of the people. Not enough assaults, beatings,
arbitrary arrests, summary executions a hallmark of First Republic Government and Vargas
were the expulsion of the militant labor movement. There are no precise estimates, and
much less interested in the State who search for and disclose about the thousands of
victims of the Vargas government. The information shyest show the number of 10,000 people
and possibly other more objective speak in 17,000. Gather information about the outrages
committed by the Brazilian State is subject reckless and not applicable to the rulers of
duty, but stands as challenge to democrats, social movements and extraordinarily to
libertarians. As this Truth Commission, by being tied to state that practiced atrocities
and follies lacks legitimacy and the legal limits in the question timeline imposed by
physicians only tends to make up the reality of the facts. Moreover, we reiterate our line
of thought, while ?cratas which is the ongoing challenge of not forgetting to disclose the
Concentration Camps produced by the state agency and its harmful consequences. Also
remember that political killings committed under the cloak of self-proclaimed democratic
state, so after 1988 left mostly without trial and punishment to the killers and
masterminds. Pietro Anarchista Caxias do Sul, February 2013.
