Argentina: Demonstrations Mark 41st Anniversary of 1976 Military Coup
---------------------------------------------------------------------

In Argentina, thousands of people took to the streets across the country
Friday to mark the 41st anniversary of the 1976 military coup that
ousted President Isabel Perón. The coup ushered in a bloody U.S.-backed
dictatorship under which as many as 30,000 people were disappeared.
During Friday's nationwide demonstrations, family members carried signs
with photos of their loved ones who are missing from this period.
