MEXICO CITY Mexico's governmental rights commission says 84 journalists
have been killed in Mexico since 2000, and 20 more have disappeared
since 2005.The National Human Rights commission says there have been 39
attacks on journalists' offices or equipment since 2005.Only 12 cases have
resulted in convictions, meaning 91 percent have gone unpunished.The commission
said Friday that charges have been brought in 15 other cases, but
the cases were apparently either dismissed or are still in trial.The commission
said the largest number of attacks have occurred in Mexico City, Veracruz,
Chiapas, Mexico State and Chihuahua.The agency called on the government
to investigate the crimes, because impunity encouraged further attacks.
"Since our founding, the United States has been a nation that respects
all faiths.We reject all efforts to denigrate the religious beliefs of others.
But there is absolutely no justification to this type of senseless violence.
None."-- President Obama on Sept. 12, 2012 discussing the attack on the
U.S. consulate in Benghazi, Libya, then said by the administration to have
been spurred by an Internet video deemed offensive to Islam.Elections are
clarifying things, though not necessarily for voters.Americans are still
puzzling over the significance and consequences of 2012's electoral embrace
of an unpopular status quo. Is dysfunction the new normal? Is sclerotic
malaise the best we can muster for a federal government?But for the
candidates and campaign teams in the midst of elections, they are marvelously
simplifying affairs. If you don't win, nothing else matters. Other considerations
must take a back seat, even if you are the incumbent president
of the most important nation on the planet.If one believes he or
she is in politics to do good, as almost all politicians do,
ignoble attainment of a victory is easily excused by the thought of
good deeds achieved once installed or retained in office.Today's birthday
boy, Nicolo Machiavelli, wrote that if a politician is successful, "the
means will always be considered honest." Or, as his modern intellectual
heir, Al Davis of the Oakland Raiders, put it: "Just win, baby."But
it is not always so.
