LADB Article Id: 55802 ISSN: 1060-4189 Arrest of Suspected Assassin Yields New Demands for Pinochet Resignation by LADB Staff Category/Department: Chile Published: 1996-01-26 In mid-January, police in Argentina arrested the person believed responsible for the 1974 assassination in Buenos Aires of Chilean Gen. Carlos Prats and his wife Sofia Couthbert. The individual arrested is a former Chilean intelligence agent, and his capture has brought renewed calls for the resignation of Chile's army chief, Gen. Augusto Pinochet. The case has also resurfaced tensions between the Chilean military and the civilian government of President Eduardo Frei. On Jan. 19, Argentine police in Buenos Aires arrested Enrique Lautaro Arancibia Clavel, a Chilean citizen who is suspected of being the intellectual author of the 1974 assassination of Gen. Prats and his wife. The arrest was announced by Argentine President Carlos Saul Menem, who called it "a new victory for justice and for the federal police." Police sources said Arancibia Clavel had been sought for years by Argentine, Chilean, and Italian authorities in connection with the deaths of Prats and his wife, as well as for carrying out other assassinations on behalf of the Chilean secret service (Direccion de Inteligencia Nacional, DINA).

Freaney, Jr. Professor of History at Temple University, has established himself as a preeminent scholar of inter-American relations. He has written or edited eleven books in the field. His most notable achievement has been his award- winning study, The Invaded: How Latin Americans and their Allies Fought and Ended U.S. Occupations (2014).[1] McPherson, who is fluent in Spanish and French, conducted multi-archival research in the Dominican Republic, Nicaragua, France, the United Kingdom, and the United States and read a variety of Latin American newspapers, including those from Haiti. His forthcoming book is Ghosts of Sheridan Circle: How a Washington Assassination Brought Pinochet’s Terror State to Justice, which will be published by the University of North Carolina Press. The article under review here explores themes that are fully developed in the book. As in McPherson’s previous articles and books, this article demonstrates the author’s command of the published scholarly literature and his willingness to conduct multi-archival research.

  • The Assassin Next Door © 1999 New Times Inc
    The Assassin Next Door © 1999 New Times Inc. All rights reserved. November 18 - 24, 1999 Chile's infamous undercover operative Armando Fernandez Larios has lived a quiet life in Miami. But his past is about to catch up with him. By Douglas Grant Mine URL: http://www.miaminewtimes.com/issues/1999-11-18/feature.html After more than a decade of suburban, middle-class existence in a Kendall condominium, Armando Fernandez Larios has lately felt obliged to resume his secret-agent ways. The former undercover operative for Chile's National Intelligence Directorate in the bloody postcoup years of the mid-Seventies does not live where he says he lives, and the corporation he set up to provide himself an occupation does nothing at all. His home telephone number does not ring at his house but relays calls to a cell phone. Answering that phone, a man with a Chilean accent responds to the salutation, "Señor Fernandez?" by asking who is calling, then invariably saying that Señor Fernandez is out of town. His Miami lawyer says Fernandez works at an auto-body repair shop, though he won't name the establishment. If it's true he is in the business of repairing damaged automobiles, and if you believe life finds winding ways to exhibit an odd sort of congruence, such a thing would credit your hypothesis. For 23 years ago Armando Fernandez Larios helped blow up a car, a sky-blue Chevrolet Chevelle, as it drove through traffic a few blocks from the White House in Washington, D.C., in the only assassination of a foreign diplomat ever to take place on U.S.

  • The Relationship Between Democracy and Terrorism in Chile
    Regimes of Terror: The Relationship between Democracy and Terrorism in Chile Jane Esberg May 22, 2009 Professor Kenneth A. Schultz, Advisor Honors Program in International Security Studies Center for International Security and Cooperation Stanford University Abstract How does democracy influence terrorism? Some scholars argue that lack of representation in autocracy motivates terrorism; others claim that individual liberty in democracy permits it. This thesis explores the debate by using Chile as a case study to examine how democracy influences terrorist organizational processes. It traces how variations in levels of representation and individual liberty in Chile between 1965 and 1995 influenced terrorist strategic capacity, or the ability of groups to think and act towards long-term survival and success. Analyzing the five observable features of strategic capacity – mission, hierarchy, membership, tactics, and violence level – reveals that democratic characteristics positively influence some dimensions and constrain others. High-functioning democracy and highly repressive autocracy are unlikely to experience violence, due to the high constraints that each places on different features of strategic capacity. However, democracies with weak representation and autocracies with some individual liberty allow strategic capacity to strengthen, making violence more likely. Acknowledgments I would like to express my deep gratitude to all the friends, family, and advisors who have supported me throughout the process of writing this thesis – your patience, input, and criticism have been instrumental to its development. First and foremost I would like to thank my advisor, Professor Kenneth Schultz, who was the first person I ever spoke to about the topic of “Chilean terrorism.” You have consistently challenged me to think deeply and explain rigorously.

On the one hand, it investigates the impact external actors and international affairs had on Chilean politics up to and immediately following the brutal coup d’etat that overthrew Allende on 11 September 1973. On the other hand, it explores how the rise and fall of Allende’s peaceful democratic road to socialism affected the Cold War in Latin America and international affairs beyond.

  • El Asesino De Letelier Luis Posada Carriles
    Luis Posada Carriles El asesino de Letelier Manuel Cabieses Estimado amigo: ORLANDO Letelier del Solar, asesinado en Washington el 21 de septiembre de 1976. Te supongo enterado de la situación creada con Luis Posada Carriles y la solicitud de extradición a Venezuela de donde se “fugó” en 1985, cuando estaba preso a la espera de la decisión del tribunal que lo juzgaba por la destrucción en pleno vuelo de un avión civil cubano el 6 de octubre de 1976. El otro acusado como autor intelectual de ese hecho, Orlando Bosch, vive libre en Miami beneficiado por un perdón presidencial de George Bush (padre) en 1990 (ese Bush, por cierto, era director de la CIA en 1976). El atentado al avión cubano fue obra del CORU (una alianza de grupos terroristas anticubanos cuyo jefe era Orlando Bosch) que tenía estrechos vínculos con la Dina y participó o colaboró con la Operación Cóndor. El National Security Archives (entidad de estudios de la Universidad George Washington) divulgó en su sitio web un conjunto de documentos desclasificados, hasta ahora desconocidos, que prueban los crímenes de estos sujetos y, específicamente, la relación de Orlando Bosch y el CORU con el asesinato de Orlando Letelier. Un documento del FBI del 2 de noviembre de 1976 da cuenta de contactos en Chile, a comienzos de 1975, entre Bosch, Guillermo Novo y gente de “Patria y Libertad”, de los que resultó el acuerdo de asesinar a Letelier. Ronnie Karpent Moffit, murió en el atentado a Orlando Letelier en Washington Otro documento, un memo del Departamento de Estado dirigido al entonces secretario de Estado Henry Kissinger, fechado el 18 de octubre de 1976, contiene entre otras las siguientes revelaciones: “Después de la llegada de Bosch a Caracas en septiembre, él declaró durante una cena para recaudar fondos que ‘ahora que nuestra organización ha salido del trabajo Letelier con una buena imagen, vamos a tratar algo más’.
