Another reason to love Maradona's Argentinian football squad
Argentinian footballers showing their support for Las abuelas de la Plaza de Mayo (The Grandmothers of the Plaza de Mayo) who for the past 30 years have been campaigning for justice for the victims of the dirty war waged by Argentina's fascist army leaders in the late 1970s and early 1980s. Las abuelas have been nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize, and would be far more deserving recipients than the current holder (yes, that's you Obama).
In any case, the Argentinian team, coached by the entertaining football legend Maradona have been playing spectacular football at the World Cup and I am gunning for them to go all the way and win the whole thing. I just hope that this was no kiss of death now. ¡Vamos Argentina!
