Disclaimer: This site has been first put up 15 years ago. Since then I would probably do a couple things differently, but because I've noticed this site had been linked from news outlets, PhD theses and peer rewieved papers and because I really hate the concept of "digital dark age" I've decided to put it back up. There's no chance it can produce any harm now.

UNCLAS QUITO 002013 SIPDIS STATE FOR INR/R/MR, WHA, WHA/AND, WHA/PDA DIRONDCP FOR PA EMBASSIES FOR PAO/IO E.O. 12958: N/A TAGS: PREL, OPRC, KIRC, KPAO, EC SUBJECT: MEDIA REACTION: PAT ROBERTSON'S STATEMENT "Thou Shall Not Kill," an editorial (08/25) in Quito's populist "La Hora" (circ. 120,000) Quote: "The unusual request made by the US evangelist preacher Pat Roberson demonstrates incredible arrogance and disrespect for human life. Not since the times of the Monroe Doctrine and McCarthyism have we seen this kind of attitude towards a Latin American leader. . . "One can either agree or disagree with the ideology or actions of a chief of state, but to call for his assassination via the mass media is a criminal terrorist act, to which judicial authorities in the US should react . . ."
