say, as we have done, that the self is a movement Sendero Luminoso politically defeated does not mean that this group is gone, it is clear that now takes different forms for the same purposes, but their ability to become a consistent threat, an alternative power to the national government, is almost nil. Do not forget that this defeat was a major milestone in the capture of Shining Path leaders in the past decade thanks to police intelligence. Sendero Luminoso now wants to survive hibernation waiting for better times, but has changed his scheme stubbornly dogmatic and fundamentalist ideology.
twentieth century history is littered with examples of perverse use of the mechanisms of democracy to blow by in democracy itself. It is imperative that all those who believe that democracy is the best system remain alert before new forms of covert violence by organizations and individuals who do not believe in democracy and seek only to exploit it to make it sound box of their ideology.
battle fronts, in which walking has become a gang of drug hitmen, are well targeted and police, along with the army, has dealt severe blows to these remaining rebels.
But this is not the only front that should concern us. There are other new modes that involve infiltration of Sendero Luminoso in trade unions, social, political, university. This phenomenon was noticed by us in due course.
We must learn lessons from the experience. SL's current strategy is going to infiltrate democratic organizations trying to manipulate and use for their purposes, exploiting their weaknesses, needs, gaps and contradictions. There is an undefined territory, not properly regulated, a gray area that people move with such ease building university autonomy or freedom of expression.
Obviously, to defeat an enemy that hides the face and took shelter under the shadow of these gray areas, requires an effort in which forces order have a directive role, but success can not be conceived without the help of everyone, all levels of government, social organizations, the university authorities, teachers, the judiciary, the Public Ministry, the Congress, all .
Now, as happened at some point in recent history, the decisive battle is political, it goes through ideology, the belief in democracy, to strengthen social organizations and institutions to reduce that margin, those gray areas in which the wolf in sheep intended thrive and advance.
We have to look carefully the scope of university autonomy, addressing complex issues such as conditions of release, the prison benefits to convicted and confessed terrorist. On some of these issues have given a set of suggestions to Congress, as a memory aid, for evaluation and discussion. Meanwhile police intelligence is still working.
