All of them, in their opinion articles this weekend, questioned the actions of the Police on the events that led to the death of attorney Javier Ordóñez, but their views were divided by mentioning decisions and people who would have influenced the acts of vandalism and disorder that occurred this week during the demonstrations in rejection of the abuse of authority.
In El Espectador, Felipe Zuleta criticized the Gustavo Petro’s “anarchic conduct” for “calling for protest” and “inciting vandalism” with his messages on Twitter throughout the week, including one in which he invited to march.
“Civil disobedience, anarchy and chaos. That’s what the arsonist likes. See everything that can burn burn in flames. Petro playing the terrorists’ game, celebrating their excesses and promoting violence through their social networks. How irresponsible! “, Said the columnist in the newspaper.
Zuleta recalled, in that medium, what for him was a “disastrous” passage of Petro for the Mayor’s Office of Bogotá and related this to the presidential aspirations of the senator (who recently received the support of the Patriotic Union in the face of the 2022 elections ), who, according to the columnist, seeks to “destabilize first but then” govern “.
“I don’t even want to imagine what the country could end up in the hands of an egocentric, megalomaniac and arson leader,” added the journalist in the Bogota newspaper.
Salud Hernández, for its part in Semana magazine, He also branded the leader of Colombia Humana a “pyromaniac”, for which she related some of the trills with which, according to her, the congressman “incited the mob” and “used chaos as a throwing weapon.”
“Do you think that the uncontrolled pack, those killed by the police and the fear of citizens serve your purposes? What kind of president would be a political leader who only knows how to feed on division and hatred? ”The journalist asked in the weekly.
For Mauricio Vargas, in El Tiempo, the excesses of this week in the country were “something instigated, directed and developed by virtue of a plan that, clearly, exists in advance and is executed step by step, once something ignites the wick”.
In the capital newspaper, the communicator related to Petro with this last appreciation, because he said, also from the messages that the former presidential candidate trilled, that this is the one who “calls the shots”.
“Petrism has an insurrectionary plan and is carrying it out”Vargas added in his opinion article, where he also questioned Petro’s arrival at the Casa de Nariño. The latter in view of the fact that the journalist, according to his column, does not see the vandals at the polls in 2022 and does “see many middle-class voters scared by the violent onslaught that the former mayor encourages.”
Also in El Tiempo, María Isabel Rueda, who said she did not blame the senator for the “street excesses”, described his tweets as “apologetic” and accused him of “collecting political royalties from the disorders.”
“What inspiration can you understand that a young man of 17, 18, 19 years old, emberraced, hormonal, unschooling, unemployed, is receiving from the political leader Gustavo Petro, through these messages on Twitter?”, Asked the columnist in the capital newspaper.
Iván Duque is not spared from criticism for his handling of the protests
For Ramiro Bejarano, in El Espectador, the “outrage” caused by “the torture and murder” of Javier Ordóñez, “became irrepressible with the challenging statements of Duque,” who, on the day of the events, praised the response of the Police for assume responsibility for the case and for the investigations that the institution and the Ministry of Defense announced in this regard.
“Yes, of course, there was vandalism, but even that does not justify the haughty response of a government that seems not to have realized the atomic bomb of displeasure against it for everything it does and represents,” Bejarano questioned in his article opinion.
Along the same lines, María Jimena Duzán criticized Duque in her column in Semana, where she asked not to blame the opposition, former President Juan Manuel Santos or Mayor Claudia López for situations such as the excesses experienced this week in the country.
In the magazine, the communicator claimed Duque for “ruling on perceptions that are lies fabricated by Uribe and that they have no foothold in reality ”and for“ not having the courage ”to deny or“ confront ”former President Álvaro Uribe.
The latter, added the columnist, has led the Colombian president to govern “from lie to lie” and “On that road he has not realized that he is setting the country on fire.”
“Let go, Iván Duque!” The journalist told the president in the weekly, after relating the order he gave on the deportation of foreigners with a trill in which Uribe suggested it, days before, along with the militarization of the country to control excesses.
