	Montoneros - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In May 1974, the Montoneros were expelled from the Justicialist movement by Perón.
		However, the Montoneros waited until after the death of Perón in July 1974 to react, with the exception of the assasination of José Ignacio Rucci, general secretary of the CGT (General Confederation of Labour) on September 25, 1973, and some other military actions.
		The Montoneros suffered heavy losses, out of around 7000 active supporters 1600 were killed in 1976 and the rest forced to scatter.

		Juan Perón, the leader of a vast mass of Argentinians, was in exile and forbidden from re-entering the political arena.
		It can be argued that none of these groups attempted to terrorize the populace through random violence, and took pains to avoid injury to people not involved in their operation.
		Democratic forces were united in their criticism of the military in the run-up to the restoration of democracy in 1983, while the alleged crimes of leftist organizations were never addressed.

		Bonadío, who had prepared indictments for 12 former military agents accused of killing the Montonero guerrillas, ordered the three arrests Thursday based on suspicions that the three former guerrilla leaders were in part responsible for the kidnap and assassination of their colleagues.
		Given that the Montoneros leaders were aware of their group's weakness within Argentina by that time, it was suspected from the outset that the operation was a sort of ”handover” in a deal that they made with the dictatorship.
		The idea is that the political violence was launched by various armed groups, including the Montoneros, and triggered a disproportionately violent response from the state, in the hands of the military junta.

		Montoneros activity increased, and the Triple A, suspected by many to be close to the police and intelligence branches of the administration, began to crack down on leftist political, student, and union leaders.
		Montoneros, the most important Peronist guerrilla, did not fight for democratic liberties and the constitution, as they used to state.
		The miscalculation of the guerrillas (Montoneros, ERP and others) were several: first, they did not have the support of the population; second, the “objective reality” finally showed that the time was not ripe for “revolution”; and, finally, they were fighting against a much superior military force, and they were easily decimated.

		When the governments failed to revive the economy and suppress escalating terrorism from groups like the Catholic-pro-Perón Montoneros, marxist ERP, and rightist militaries, in the late 1960s and early 1970s, the way was open for Perón's return.
		This turmoil was fueled primarily by Perón's growing ties with former rival Ricardo Balbín, the conservative leader of the Radical Party (UCR); whom the Raúl Alfonsín led opposition considered a right-wing radical.
		Neither the Montoneros, nor the Marxist ERP were pleased by Perón's actions.

		At the same time, in the last year, the ERP - together with the Montoneros - have re-stated the assassination campaign against army generals, policemen, torturers etc. This was just the excuse which the counter-revolution sought to launch a vicious 'counter-terrorist campaign' against the organisations of the working class.

	Argentina’s Dirty War
		The left Peronist Montoneros had considerably larger number of combatants scattered throughout the country in loosely organized "columns" based in urban centers.
		There are no estimates of strength and only sketchy and simplistic descriptions of Montonero objectives, these most likely culled from the profusion of magazines and communiqués published by the organization during its aboveground days in 1973-74 as the left wing of the Peronist movement.
		In 1975, the army apparently knew about as much about the Montoneros as most Argentines, remembering them primarily for their ability to put tens of thousands of demonstrators into the street in 1973-74.

		Indeed, the Montoneros were the largest guerrilla movement in Latin America and commanded the broadest popular support amongst the people who opposed the brutal murderous dictatorship.
		In a complicated and convoluted history that saw the triumphant return of Peron in 1973, his subsequent death a few months later, and the Military coup in 1976, heralding a veritable genocide of the popular forces (30,000 killed or disappeared by the military junta 1976- 1983), McCaughan struggles to keep the reader abreast the situation.

		In the 60's and 70's there was mounting violence in Argentina, as the principal guerilla group, the Montoneros (a leftist faction of peronism), employed tactics of terrorism, bombing banks, public buildings, military sights, and police stations, and killing police officers and military officials (p.121).
		However, the dictatorship exaggerated the threat of the Montoneros, and justified many disappearances as fatalities in 'battle' (p.122).
		The military pursued the 'internal enemy.' General Ibérico Saint Jean, who became governor of the province of Buenos Aires, explained this military tactic, "First we must kill the subversives, then their sympathizers; then those who are indifferent; and finally, we must kill all those who are timid," (p.124).
