Among the “insurgents” who regularly appear in public as the most vocal opponents of Janša’s government is Dušan Keber, a former health minister and a regular member of the intellectual party committee, where he proves to be a “guardian of morality” fighting the allegedly corrupt government.
As is well known, Keber has recently signed a kind of call from left-wing intellectuals, who turned on Prime Minister Janez Janša also because of his (actually non-existent) congratulations to Donald Trump. Nothing new, because Keber has so far signed almost all public statements, where, as a rule, other “calibres” have appeared, such as Spomenka Hribar, Darko Štrajn and other members of the hard core of the transitional left. Also under the recent call, which we first revealed on the Democracy website, since at that time so-called youth unionist Tea Jarc was still looking for signatories. It is a request to the government to abandon all regular business and focus exclusively on resolving the issue with covid19, which is about as if the police across the country were required to give up all duty and deal with only one event.
Already during the first wave of the covid19 epidemic, Keber, once a prominent member of the LDS, even spoke publicly about some sort of “death lists,” which he never proved. But look at him now, he recently announced such lists himself – in October he said: “We are approaching the moment when doctors will have to decide which patient will be allowed intensive care and which will not.”
The editorial board of Democracy received information that puts Keber’s “ethical attitude” in the fight against the “corrupt government” as a lie. According to the informant, already in the 1990s, Keber, as a professor, required students and medical specialists to take a self-paying ECG course (electro cardiogram) at the Lek Hotel in Kranjska Gora. Anyone who did not attend this course would have great difficulty in the exam. Well, the money for this had to be transferred by the “taxpayers” to Keber’s personal account. In verifying this information, the story was confirmed by one of the doctors who made such a transfer in 1995, one year after the Depala village affair, where Keber also stood in the trenches against the then (dismissed) Minister of Defence and current Prime Minister Janez Janša.
So much for Keber’s commitment to social, public health and public education. And of course about his “ethical attitude” and moral competencies in overthrowing the government …
