If the title has seemed shocking or eschatological, we present our excuses, but knows there is no reason for it. And here we come to treat a very serious situation that has arisen because of a hundred stones, beyond the limits border in Nicaragua and Costa Rica. We do not refer to problems caused by hundreds of thugs or people of wrongdoing, but disagreements on those signals that are used to set the boundaries "of estates, terms and borders", in this case between these countries of Central America, and also for dredging the river San Juan splitter and the entrance of Nicaraguan troops.
course, do not deny that also influenced the tremendous desire to see the word that starts the headline in large print - I'm sure - that has been printed in any newspaper to see if a reader found it shocking or scatological. I hope you have not fallen into that trap.
The present case is extremely serious and is jumping for San Jose to Managua, and vice versa, to the Secretary General of the OAS, José Miguel Insulza, who for obvious reasons in Santiago friends call him "Panza ". The official mediator between the President of Costa Rica, Laura Chinchilla, and Daniel Ortega of Nicaragua.
meetings, they say, have been very rough, behind the diplomatic facade is a tendency in these cases. Ortega, who ordered the dredging at once famous and now fallen Commander Zero, has had a rigid position, such as stone, worthy of the hardness of the boundary markers. So when the Costa Rican press says that he has behaved as a perfect marker, no one has bothered or offended nor has there been any protest note.
The fact is that Costa Rica has certified only 17 of the 137 markers laid down a ruling by the Court of the Hague in 1800, and for that reason, the maps do not reflect the exact point border. We had access to some incidents of meetings and we look forward to transcribe them for you. The tension rose to a maximum when the President stated in his dapper style:
- President Ortega, I guarantee that from our position these stones are solid, hard, well placed.
Ortega countered with marked disdain:
- I do not recognize. For me, his thesis is soft ...
The president became impatient
- Insulza! - Ortega chimed.
- not yell at me! - Bother Insulza.
- not you, do not you see that is written with that? It is tasteless to her for her argument. And then he turned to the president:
- Look, chinchilla ...
- Panza, rodent called me!
There, Insulza called to order:
- Madam President, I remind you that this is his last name ... 
- Yes, but he has spoken with tiny, review the text.
Insulza read up the words of Ortega and saw it was true. Then he spoke very seriously to both:
- Do not keep looking five legs to the chin .., sorry, the cat, because the shot will to go to the Permanent Council and there is no know ...
Chinchilla Ortega regained calm, but with a face that everyone wanted to send the other to eat a demarcation stone.
The unexpected character in this whole episode as our border is Eden Pastora, Commander Zero. Famous during the Sandinista revolution by making Congress headquarters in Managua and a survivor of a bomb, then passed to the Contras. Now appears on an island, stuck in a tent and allegedly responsible for dredging and to review the demarcation. One wonders, what do you know pastor of dredging and landmarks, unless it be that he has gotten?
Surprisingly, amidst this desperre border that is seeing exactly where you step, Dr. Insulza, so ready to turn the other way when his sweetheart particular diplomat says so, and having so good excuse to hide, has brought the arrests necessary to qualify as "very serious" and "unacceptable" statements by a Venezuelan general threatened a military blow, if there were a opposition victory.
The general smeared this has no name does this mean that eventually the effectiveness of the Constitution is a matter of whim ? So "the barbarity can crush democracy when he pleases? as so aptly pointed out from these pages. There are definitely people who send leads to swallow a piece demarcation, a boundary marking a huge milestone border. And not just in stone.
