The AMIA cause is synonymous with corruption.
The AMIA case became a monstrous case to such an extent that it was divided into two: AMIA1, which strictly covers the attack of July 18, 1994, and AMIA2, which brings together the acts of corruption by the officials involved in AMIA1.
This case presents an immense conglomerate of crimes reprehensible on an international level, namely: terrorism, hate crime, drug trafficking, arms trafficking, influence peddling and, what is extremely reprehensible, the inaction of those responsible for administering justice who not only They committed the crime of cover-up but also stalled the case.
The attack on the AMIA was declared a crime against humanity by Judge Canicoba Corral in 2006, therefore, an imprescriptible crime. This was because it was a case of international terrorism (Rome Statute art. 7), but it was not established that every crime linked to the AMIA case has the seriousness of crime against humanity. That is why the judicial corruption of state officials who covered up the terrorist attack will remain only a serious violation of Human Rights.
The following is known about the main cause AMIA 1: who ordered the attack; what were the reasons for said attack; where and when the decision to attack our country was made; who were in charge of carrying out the attack; who coordinated the attack; when the operational group in charge of executing it entered the country; when said operational group left the country. However, the only thing that is not known Why, if so much is known, does it continue to be covered up?
This example has shown that when States are corrupt they are not capable of judging crimes as aberrant as those against humanity in their own courts; or at least they choose which crimes against humanity they are capable of prosecuting and which crimes they are not.
The security of Nations depends on the protection of Human Rights and the fight against corruption, which is why the judiciary must be free of corruption and politicization.
In trials of cases such as AMIA, the implementation of an International Anti-Corruption Criminal Court is imperative, which generates a deterrent effect on the corrupt judiciary, such as the International Criminal Court (2002). The existence of an international organization that persecutes, investigates, judges, condemns and imprisons any official, including heads of state, would proportionally reduce the tendency to commit corruption crimes. The question that arises is, is Argentina prepared to judge truthfully and not through the consequences of judicial corruption?
