    In 1975, President Isabel Perón appoints Jorge Rafael Videla as commander-in-chief of the Argentine Army
    nJorge Rafael Videla and other military leaders overthrew Isabel Perón on March 24, 1976
    nThe military junta was created, otherwise known as “National Reorganization Process”
    nThey were responsible for forced disappearances, and since these bodies were never found, nobody could create courtsuits

    Jesus, Edgeah, you gave me a fright with "it's long", jeje. Well, four sentences, not too long at all.

    Let's see:

    En el año 1975 ..Perón.... designa a ..Videla Comandante en Jefe de las Fuerzas Armadas de Argentina.

    ..Videla da un golpe de estado junto con otros miembros de las Fuerzas Armadas y derruecan a ..Perón el 24 de marzo 1976.

    Se creó la Junta Militar, también conocida como Proceso de Reorganización Nacional

    Fueron responsables de desapariciones forzosas y debido a que nunca se encontró los cuerpos no se pudieron tomar medidas judiciales.

    The dots are the full names.

    Woah, thanks your a life saver, do you think you could help me on another few...Thanks

    nThe generals created a nationwide system that was used to track down “subversives”, which are people who wish to overthrow the authority
    nThese “subversives” were the people that had “disappeared” and were tortured by the government
    nOne newspaper had said that "there is one dead each five hours, and one bomb each three hours“
    nDuring this war Jorge Rafael Videla had escaped various assassination attempts

    __

    Here's the next 2


    nMany Chilean exiles in Argentina were tortured again and were forced to leave to another country, Chilean General Carlos Prats was assassinated, as well as Cuban Diplomats
    nDuring this war, many “subversive” women, had their children/newborn taken away, believing that those who are subversive, raise subversive children

    __

    Here's the next 3


    nIn 1976, one of the generals predicted that 25,000 subversives will be killed, as well as 5,000 will be killed out of a mistake
    nThe National Commission on the Disappearance of Persons found that 9,000 people had disappeared, however, the more acceptable number by human rights groups are about 30,000 people that disappeared
    nThe victims were people associated with activist groups, students, and people thought to hold left-wing views

    __

    Here's the next 2


    nMany of the disappeared were pushed out of planes into the Río de la Plata or the Atlantic Ocean to drown, known as vuelos de la muerte
    nSome evidence shows that the children that were taken by the mothers during the war, were taken to military men to be raised as adopted children



    ___

    Here's the next 4


    nFounded in 1977, this group demanded that the kidnapped children during the dirty war be returned to their mothers (Grand-Mothers of the Plaza de Mayo)
    nThe protests were held at la Plaza de Mayo, where they wore white scarves to symbolize peace
    nThe mothers of the Plaza de Mayo split, in 1986, Mothers of the Plaza de Mayo – Founding Line was created for legislation on help to find the missing people’s remains and to bring ex-officials to justice
    nThe other group was Mothers of the Plaza de Mayo Association, which took a political approach, refusing to accept help from the government until the government admits their faults and connections to the dirty war


    ___
    Here's the next 2


    nDemocracy returns when Raúl Alfonsínbecomes president on December 1983
    nHe created the National Commission on the Disappearance of Persons to investigate the missing people and human rights violations



    Muchos Gracias!

    Edgeah, I see now what you meant by "a little long"..but it is not the question here.

    You should try first yourself, as this is an assignment, as far as I can see. So, give your own translation and we will happily give you a hand correcting or amending it.

    saludos
