“Our people in struggle know closely the death and pain that this entails, always in unequal confrontation against the State and armed forces such as police and the Armed Forces, The families of: Lemun, Catrileo, Mendoza, Catrillanca and our peñi Llempi, weichafe of the Weichan Auka Mapu murdered in the same territory of the events that concern us, know it well,” they argued.
Along these lines, WAM made a call “to our people to be cautious in the face of the provocation of the agents of the State, of the morbid and sensationalist entertainment press and from all political spectrums; All of them have been responsible for biasing the public and institutional judgment with very high condemnations aimed at corrupting Mapuche autonomist thought, and now with this fact, they have been responsible for prematurely condemning the leaders and organizations that have not fallen into anti-revolutionary and unworthy practices. ”.
