U.S. Should Help Argentina Solve Terrorism Case
(The Hill) Toby Dershowitz and Joseph Humire - Will the presidential victory of Mauricio Macri in Argentina finally bring justice to the victims of the 1994 bombing of the AMIA Jewish community center in Buenos Aires? Will it solve the murder of the AMIA investigation's special prosecutor, Alberto Nisman, one year ago? Macri has revoked Argentina's Memorandum of Understanding with Iran, appointed a new cabinet-level official and bureau to oversee the AMIA investigation, and re-opened the probe into Nisman's suspicious death. It is imperative that the U.S. and other friendly governments help the new Argentine president as he seeks to right his country's judicial integrity, an effort for which Alberto Nisman gave his life to protect, and to thwart Iran from exporting its revolution to Argentina and other parts of Latin America. Dershowitz is vice president for government relations and strategy at the Foundation for Defense of Democracies. Humire is executive director of the Center for a Secure Free Society.
