SUBJECT: MEDIA REACTION; AMIA CASE; MIDDLE EAST; VENEZUELAN 
PRESIDENT CHAVEZ; 07/30/07 
 
 
1. SUMMARY STATEMENT 
 
Weekend international stories cover the USG praise for Argentina's 
cooperation in the AMIA terrorist bombing investigation; US policy 
in the Middle East; and Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez's 
"perpetual presidency," along the lines of that of Argentine former 
President Juan Domingo Peron. 
 
2. OPINION PIECES AND EDITORIALS 
 
- "The US praises (Argentina's) cooperation in the AMIA case" 
 
Daily-of-record "La Nacion's" Washington-based correspondent, Hugo 
Alconada Mon, writes (07/28) "Except for a last-minute change, the 
US House of Representatives will make public its support for the 
progress made in the investigation of the AMIA bombing case, will 
congratulate the Argentine Government for 'having accelerated the 
rhythm of the investigation' and for having passed the new 
antiterrorist legislation. 
 
"The support will be made public through a unanimous resolution that 
will also include a request to Interpol and the rest of the 
international community to support Argentina by 'detaining and 
extraditing any Iranian government official or former government 
official, Hezbollah agents or Islamic militants' through 
international warrants for their capture. 
 
"Draft resolution 188/07 was promoted by the head of the Republican 
Party in the Foreign Relations Committee, Ileana Ros-Lehtinen, and 
it was later supported by the head of the Committee, Democratic Tom 
Lantos. 
 
"... The AMIA bombing case is one of the central issues that raise 
most interest in Washington about Argentina, both for its direct 
ties to the Jewish community in the country and the alleged 
responsibility of Hezbollah and other enemies of the US." 
 
- "The real story" 
 
Marcelo Cantelmi, international editor of leading "Clarin," opines 
(07/29) "As everyone knows, Islam has two huge branches - Sunnis and 
Shiites. Since the Shiites have influence in Lebanon, make a 
majority in Iraq, rule Iran and gained importance as never before 
due to the (Persian) Gulf war disaster, Washington has now decided 
that the road is arming Sunnis to destroy the others - period... 
 
"The most serious danger posed by this measure is that it will add 
tons of fuel to the civil war in Iraq... 
 
"Today, the terrorist enemy has multiplied itself hand in hand with 
a demolishing anti-US feeling in the Arab world. In this way, the 
assessment of the situation is doubly negative. It is clear that 
there is not such a thing as an Al Qaeda network to fight. Instead, 
a number of fascist ultra-Islamic groups have increased since the 
invasion (of Iraq) and the terminal crisis in the Palestinian 
territories. What Washington still has not noticed is that the West 
has common enemies with Arabs and Persians in those territories. 
When the anti-terrorist struggle is seriously carried out (which has 
not happened until now), an alliance with those borders will be 
inevitable." 
 
- "The perpetual presidency" 
 
Natalio R. Botana, contributor to daily-of-record "La Nacion," 
opines (07/29) "... The modern republic has always meant... 
sovereignty of the people and power limitation. However, this did 
not mean that the president could not be reelected as many times as 
necessary... Nonetheless, during the Second World War, Franklin D. 
Roosevelt obtained a third and fourth term in office. This is why 
later on re-election in the US was limited to only one consecutive 
term. 
 
"In the Southern Cone this system was implemented with the variant 
of re-election following an intermediate period or by adding two 
terms in office with the possibility of attempting to get reelected 
after an intermediate period. In any event, what these constitutions 
seek is avoiding the trap of perpetual re-election... 
 
"...With Chavez in Venezuela a phenomenon is taking place that is 
similar to that in Argentina with Peron - far from reducing popular 
support, the exercise of presidency increases it... 
 
"... Could perhaps perpetual presidency evolve towards a competitive 
presidency in the framework of a neutral State and a pluralist 
regime? It is difficult to dismiss this riddle, although its 
resolution largely depends on the stability of the region and the 
existence of bridges of dialogue between two concepts of democracy - 
 
hegemonic and Republican democracy. 
 
"The tradition of perpetual presidency has strong roots and is hard 
to defeat. It does not appear by chance - it is the daughter of our 
history and is always lurking in some countries (ours among them) 
more than in others. On a regional level, this issue calls for 
diplomatic caution and intelligence."
