Argentina's Dirty War lasted from 1976 to 1983, and involved massive state-sponsored violence and repression at the hands of the country's military leaders. Around 30 000 people were abducted and murdered by the government during this time.

Growing disillusionment and unrest in the country eventually led faltering dictator, Leopoldo Galtieri to play the nationalist trump-card and attack the Falkland Islands. Defeat in the 1982 Falklands War contributed massively to the downfall of the Junta.

  • @Seretur00 In his book "1984", George Orwell wrote these sentece: "For a communist, the past is decided in the future, not the opposite". And the future became nighmarish for Argentine militaries. I live in Brazil.

  • The "30000" figure is not true; there were only a maximum of 7000 disappeared. 3000 were fabricated for a report by the CONADEP, and the further 20000 never existed at all save for mentioning numbers. Of those 7000, a couple thousand were guerrilla members, and a couple hundred of them were killed by their own mates rather than by the government.

  • @MrReco12 and those 1500 who were killed by ERP don't deserve to have human rights?

  • @mikeharzko

    A mere 1500 were killed by the ERP: Videla murdered 30 000.

  • Argentines never forget and also they never learn . I live in Brazil.
