Last week, three more soldiers accused of the murder of Víctor Jara were arrested in Chile. Pedro Barrientos, the SOA grad accused of pulling the trigger himself, was not on the list. When our allies in Chile are making such great strides toward justice and accountability, we must not remain on the sidelines. Take action today to demand Barreintoss extradition from Florida to stand trial in Chile!: org.salsalabs/o/727/p/dia/action3/common/public/?action_KEY=14162 As you know, our Justice for Victor Campaign has been central to our work over the last years. One year ago today, a SOA Watch delegation held a somber vigil at the gates of a US-funded urban warfare training center outside of Santiago, Chile. In April, we held a Víctor Jara Memorial Forum as part of our 2014 Spring Days of Action to educate the community and share the undying spirit of Jaras music. And, thanks to you and thousands of SOA Watch activists around the globe, weve kept the pressure on the US Department of Justice to do the right thing and extradite Barrientos to face justice in Chile. Now, as we oppose yet another deadly imperialist venture by the US in Iraq and Syria, we must hold the killers of yesteryear to account by demanding Justice for Víctor! Only when the current power elite see their henchmen publicly disgraced will they think twice about repeating the sins of the past. Lend your voice to the surging international chorus demanding Justice for Víctor! Take action now: org.salsalabs/o/727/p/dia/action3/common/public/?action_KEY=14162 In solidarity as we remember the Chilen@ 9/11, Arturo, Hendrik, Maria Luisa, Jenne, Karolina, Roy, Lisa, Brigitte, Irene, Cristina, Owen, and Pablo
