        U2 did it in Santiago de Chile too. And many people disappeared
under Pinochet dictatorship too. If i remember well what i've read about
that on a site given on wire a few days ago, the "Mothers of the
Disappeared" organization exists in some latinamerican countries, not only
in Argentina and Chile. So, you can think U2 did this song about all the
disappeared people in all concerned latinamerican countries.

        Hope that helps !

        In the name of love
