LORD, DELIVER US !
TO THAT “PUREST LIFE” COSTA RICA !
In view of the continuous interference of Costa Rica in the internal affairs of other countries, among them our Nicaragua, with a notorious eagerness to show itself superior and to undermine its neighbors as if they were its subjects, we remind that Sister Republic and its people, who deserve great respect, that Nicaragua is Sovereign and is no one's colony, nor will be ever again.
When our neighbors reproduce, in their words and gestures, the pretentious airs of a Europe long past its sell-by date, which also looks down on them, they make a pompous, ridiculous sight of themselves, at which we regional neighbors, laugh a great deal, whether openly or not.
Because no one has given that country, its government, its institutions and/or front organizations, justification for so much boasting and pretense. Nothing and nobody has granted them rights over us, their Brothers, Neighbors or otherwise, and nobody has empowered them to show off such farcical, inexplicable pretensions and arrogance. We know they have no authority whatsoever to judge others, least of all when they are unable, out of old, long standing vanities, to see the human defects, the beam, in their own eyes and surroundings.
To the sum of envy and expressions of historical jealousy, we can add today the creation of letterhead organizations with which they cause a stir, seeking to project themselves, demanding of others what they themselves do not grant even to their own People: Respect! Whether one talks of Political Parties, Associations, or Social or Community Organizations, in deceptive, theatrical Costa Rica, they enjoy no respect.
If there is something even more unreal, fallacious, fantastic, fictional and movie-like, it is the supposed Policy of the Central American "Switzerland", which in Real Life applies racism and extremism to one and all, harassing especially Nicaraguan Migrants and Workers, whom they subjugate, mistreat and enslave, even sexually, using them when it interests them, for impoverished exhibitionism to do with Social Strategies and "Protective" Policies, from the tooth to the lip, as they say.
On behalf of the people of Nicaragua, we demand that these self-styled Organizations, since the truth is that they are fraudulent businesses created at the behest of their customers, pay attention, denounce and justify themselves to the world, we suggest that they look out for their own obligation to protect the human rights of Costa Rican workers and the thousands of Nicaraguan migrant workers who are forced to sell even their bodies, to traffic themselves in order to eat, or to beg, bringing pity from others on themselves, in that “pure life” Costa Rica, where everything is false and everything is for sale, including Human Dignity.
We hope they pronounce themselves with the same energy, faced with so many flagrant, well documented violations of the Human and Social Rights of Nicaraguans, and of Costa Ricans too, given that we are referring to this Central America that should unite us all, proudly showing us the Paths to Independence and leaving behind for good the amusing, tragi-comic genuflections and servility that unfortunately are still in use in the vain hope of reaching a Heaven made in Hollywood, invented by thorough phonies, losing on the way to Hell the Soul they might have saved.
