A GOVERNMENT FAILED
Tomás Oropeza Berumen
Mexico, 11.XI. 2010 .- Despite the triumphalist declarations of right-wing government headed by Felipe Calderon, the country remains locked in a spiral of violence provoked by the military strategy to fight organized crime call without touching your finances and without a social policy eradicate poverty of millions of Mexicans who live a long economic and social crisis.
Nearly four years into the de facto government's war against some PAN drug cartels has claimed more than 39 000 deaths, the government acknowledges it has no control at least in 400 municipalities in 2438 that the country and the narcobandas attacks against military and police forces do not stop and have escalated into violence and use of sophisticated weaponry.
therefore no exaggeration to say that the Calderón government has no capacity to ensure the safety of Mexican nor their progress and welfare. Calderon
The government is flawed and far from resolving the serious national problems is rising under a plan aimed at destabilizing and create conditions for the establishment of a state of emergency nationwide.
These dark days Mexico is an absurd situation where the military aid to villagers threatened by one of the drug cartels flee to other cities, instead of protecting them. Or that a band offers its self-dissolution and withdrawal in exchange for the government to fulfill its obligation to ensure the safety of the inhabitants of the state of Michoacán. Which is originally de facto President Felipe Calderon and where it intends to impose his sister, Maria Luisa, as governor next year.
The first situation upside-down world we live in Mexico is presented in Mier and Camargo, two municipalities of Tamaulipas entity since the death of the head of the Gulf Cartel, Antonio Ezequiel Cardenas Guillen alias Tony Tormenta, at the hands of the Navy Armada de Mexico, has become a place coveted by several bands, including Los Zetas, composed of former military troops trained at the School of the Americas to combat rising Zapatista 1994.
Hours after the fall of the brother of the founder of the Gulf Cartel, Osiel Cardenas Guillen, imprisoned since 2007 in the United States, the violence that took place in Matamoros on Friday lasted more than ten municipalities narcobanners Tamaulipas and appeared in all states of the Gulf of Mexico with messages of Los Zetas, mocking his rival and threatening to seize their markets and routes of drugs bound for the United States, insatiable consumer of all kinds of trash drug.
for Ripley The second case is presented in the state of Michoacan, where blankets and flying by a criminal gang called The Family, one of the most persecuted groups in Calderón offers dissolve itself as long as your government commit to ensure safety and prevent Michoacan settle in that state criminal groups in other entities. As Los Zetas or Pacific Cartel, the Chapo Guzmán, now one of the richest and most powerful men in the world according to Forbes magazine.
is not new attempt to negotiate in La Familia Michoacana. En julio del año pasado le envió un mensaje a Felipe Calderón a través de un noticiero de la televisión local dirigido por el periodista Marcos Knapp. Servando Gómez, alias La Tuta, habló al aire con el comentarista y acusó a la Policía Federal Preventiva (hoy Policía Federal) y a la Subprocuraduría de Investigación Especializada en Delincuencia Organizada (Siedo) de apoyar a Los Zetas en su proyecto de apropiarse de la plaza michoacana. Señalando como responsable de esa alianza al secretario de Seguridad Pública Federal, Genaro García Luna.
En aquella ocasión, como ahora, su oferta fue rechazada públicamente. Pero ahí queda el intento de esa banda que al parecer cuenta with a broad social base both in Michoacan and in several states where it operates not only in the traffic of narcotics, but in several areas of crime.
Economically the situation is so bad that even people like former Secretary of Finance of the neoliberal government of Ernesto Zedillo acknowledges that there is a recovery in the short term and that violence is an obstacle to economic growth. For
also former governor of the Banco de Mexico and Mexico's former representative in the International Monetary Fund will be the next chairman of the board of Banorte, one of the few banks in the hands of capitalists Mexicans, the violence in the country is impeding the recovery. Opinion
holding contrary to the current Treasury Secretary Ernesto Cordero, who says the drug war does not obstruct the smooth precipitous business but the figures say that tourism has collapsed, unemployment is growing and the product next year Gross Domestic fall further.
Other apparent absurdity, behind which hides the government's repressive logic, is the attack on the offices of the newspaper El Sur, the tourist port of Acapulco, Guerrero, by a group of gunmen fired editors and reporters without seriously injure anyone. This, just days before Felipe Calderon pledged to respect freedom of expression in Mexico.
The director of the South, Juan Angulo, said the attack could be triggered by hostility to the governor Zeferino Torreblanca has with the newspaper since its founding 12 years ago has been the voice of social struggles and human rights defender in Guerrero. Amen to sustain an independent and critical attitude against the agent who came to the state executive candidate of the Democratic Revolution Party. A few days ago The South made public, several videos showing several police chiefs in Acapulco in dealing with offenders.
But the confusion and fear begin to be gradually overcome by young people and academics. Last Sunday with a demonstration CD. Juarez, a week of police aggression against students of the University and in the capital with two small demonstrations by students from the UNAM and other educational institutions under the slogan If you hit one, hit us all and not one more, no more.
