The Moral Case of Cartoonist vs. President
Did I just read that? Surely I read wrong?
Correa, the former president of Ecuador has a warrant of arrest on his head.
Bonil, July 4, 2018: - Walking alert (a leftist cry on a victorious Bolívar through Latin America) - of Bolívar's sword? - No, the red alert of Interpol |
Interpol has been alerted to have him extradited from Belgium. Belgium is apparently the new haven for political leaders on the run. The Catalan separatist leader escaped extradition from Belgium too only little over a month ago.
Responsibility is but a word of fashion, according to Correa. Now it is there, now it is not.
Correa has done anything in his power, rallying week after week, using every means of his presidential power to undermine the freedom held in the constitution against Bonil and his colleagues. Bonil was singled out time after time in court as in the rallies mentioned, hearing his person and cartoons harassed in a tone, which might have been a suggestion of... violence? Surely verbal violence, which might have escalated even further. Bonil was denied his personal and citizen rights on every level and for every bit of that burdensome and dangerous road, Correa is responsible. Responsible in the present tense.
Correa the Escapist. We know already that he will do anything to avoid facing his own deeds. His life is as cushioned as Bonil's is not. Bonil has been called to answer for his cartoons and he answered. Being answerable is the very definition of acting responsibly.
Of every word with which we characterize Bonil, Correa is his opposite. Bonil has spine, showing courage and using his sharp intellect. He analyses the world with love and humor, creating understanding one cartoon at a time to make this world a better place.
Correa is a whimpering blob of vanity.
The words above have been all about Bonil and that is how it should be.
- Oh, and by the way: It is the Fourth of July in the US. Belgium may be seeing Trump hopefully sooner than later. Sorry, Belgium!
