What Happens To A Ballerina's Feet

Manifesto: against militarization, popular mobilization

Rosario Ibarra (*)

With the amendments to the National Security Act seeks to legalize what has hitherto has been and is being done outside the constitutional framework: using the military in public security work. It would seek to crown law what has been done illegally since 2006, militarize the country.

Link these jobs with national security is a fallacy to justify is the executive that has a whim of the Armed Forces, even in peacetime, the fact that flagrantly violates As stated in Article 129 of the Constitution.

reason do not have much to learn and what are the consequences of maintaining the armed forces as part toral of the "need to combat organized crime": Violence and insecurity not only yield but increases exponentially over time, with its wealth of violations human rights.

The town is so "worst of all possible worlds", frightened and suffering from violence by criminal groups, "that the authorities, driving fools, can not contain ... "but also, it must be said, suffering abuse and corruption Perennial authority should protect it.

These reforms aim to institutionalize what we have been saying for more than four years: a militarized state (with clear dye "pinochetianos"), poorly conducted in which does not solve the terrible problem of insecurity and which routinely trample civil liberties.

In addition, these legal amendments contain other hazards: the Executive may decide unilaterally, without any counterweight ... Worse still, it opens the door to military repression social movements, because even when he says that "there will be an affectation for internal security, movements or actions related to character conflict political, electoral or social nature, slyly an exception, when they "constitute a challenge or a threat to internal security" ... "According to whom? Executive course! Any sign of political freedom is threatened and can be deleted by this provision itself of military dictatorships.

approved the minutes says it "seeks to protect in all respects human rights" ... nothing more false, as in Article 77, with an ambiguous wording states that "when members of the Armed Forces perform behaviors that MAY BE constituting a crime involving civilians, will be prosecuted and punished in accordance with the rules that govern them, "thus maintaining a military tribunal. Keeping this exceptional jurisdiction at a critical moment of terrible social and political breakdown, marked by the militarization of the country is a terrible risk to civil liberties of people, many dare we say, cause evils worse instead of solutions to end what the government called "organized crime."

I insisted on removing d called military law, which, under its current structure, has allowed the offense you can define the common law, military becomes the fact of having been committed by a member of the armed forces, making the jurisdiction of war become a privilege and a part-punitive system to the detriment of "equality before the law" and the principle of separation of powers provides that penalties can be imposed only an ordinary judge, under Article 21 of the Constitution. I have heard many lawyers say that this must be addressed by the Constitution through an amendment to article 13, to repeal the preserve of impunity under which they have committed and are still committing crimes and violations of fundamental rights.

But obviously, especially with the current balance of political forces in Congress, the solution the problem is not basically live in the legislative arena. There is no way out other than political action, mass mobilizations in the streets, organized in a peaceful manner, to halt and reverse the present course of militarization and violence launched by the government imposed since 2006 and against which we struggle since then. We have reached a situation as intolerable. These days, after the barbarous murder in Cuernavaca that included the poet's son Javier Sicilia, seems to spread throughout the country, the awareness that this violence is sufficient. A possible turning point that will allow a broad mobilization, national, unitary, like the is called to start in Cuernavaca May 5 to end the 8th in Mexico City and there to support and add without reluctance. Them simultaneously in other cities, as happened on 6 April. It's urgent. Necessary. We must stop the militarization and violence caused by power.

I have always thought and I said that soldiers are "people in uniform" and are also part of the people abused and sometimes forced to that part of town to fight his brothers, "it forces the people of the barracks to strafe the village of factories put a uniform on Cain murdering Abel. "

Puebla, Pue., 30 April. Andrés Manuel López Obrador called for an end to the corrupt governments of PRI and PAN, have been charged with looting the country in recent 20 years.

From the presidency of Carlos Salinas de Gortari government budget became prey to the service of a minority, so we have economic crisis, social welfare and security said to occur in Puebla the National Regeneration Movement (Morena).

Before thousands of people gathered at the square of the city, Lopez Obrador showed the results of neoliberal governments, most notably the privatization of education, unemployment, collapse of the productive activity and the abandonment of the field.

The main victims have been young, regretted, who have resorted, in some cases, illegal and antisocial behaviors in the absence of educational and employment opportunities.

to former presidential candidate, it was time to push for change in political regime, which requires the removal from power of rapacious minority feels owner of Mexico.

Accompanied by state leaders of PT and Convergence, López Obrador called on militants and supporters of PRI and PAN to join the movement, whose purpose is to make the country transit from oligarchy to democracy.

The fight is not perched in public office is not the ambition for power for power, much less the greed for money. What we want is a peaceful transformation to the organized participation of the people.

He announced that the movement's aim over the next nine months will increase the sectional committee is made up of 28 thousand to 65 thousand, to have a presence in all electoral districts of the country before the election of 2012.

Safety Reform Act passes the public power in the military: Muñoz Ledo

Roberto Garduño and Enrique Méndez

reform bill to the National Security Bill, drawn up by deputies who despised the work of five legislative committees were ordered to rule, represents the transfer of power military audience. If this does take dedication to the Mexican military, because they make a military regime but it is giving the command of the war (Felipe) Calderon the United States, a strategic schemes that country, which are made from Washington , says the chairman of the Committee on Foreign Affairs of the House, Porfirio Munoz Ledo.

the end of the regular session in the Chamber of Deputies after opening the freezer door of the PRI legislative reform indefinitely, the representative of the Labour Party warned that the displacement of civilian to military leaves total defenseless citizens, representing the violation of regulatory provisions of the rule of law. The world gray is the runoff from a weak state to a clearly democratic dictatorship, and dictatorship abroad is subject to a complete loss of national sovereignty .

This deferral of authority, he says, represents the consecration of the interference of the armed forces in public security. "So you have to define in the Constitution in times of peace without war. That is the single most dangerous, because the theory of the preamble to the document that is distributed with the gray. Barbarous says one thing, there is no black or white, there is never absolute peace and total war.

The world of gray it does is create a diffuse political regime in which national security, civil and military authorities resolved in accordance with the circumstances and, indeed, in acts of an absolutist. The Constitution provides that the case of a formal declaration of war, which is national security issue, there must be an act of Congress to suspend guarantees. This is to control the suspension, and all this is being refused.

"The document, prepared by the PRI in the Chamber of Deputies, includes an unusual section on foreign policy. What is involved in the background?

-is moving to Army foreign policy powers. Said that the authorities responsible for public safety may interpret and apply foreign policy principles enshrined in the Constitution. This means that you are turning to history, are returning 70 years. Now everything is war. It is giving a 180 degrees to what was the institutionalization of the Army and government. The progress of civilization turning back. What is it? This is very suspicious.

These powers are intended to give foreign policy mean that the Army and the Navy will decide how to apply the principle of self determination of peoples, the territorial integrity of states. It is very rare to pass powers of the Foreign Ministry to Defense. So we turn to the Foreign Relations Committee.

The public is totally defenseless, says legislator Carlos Ramos PT Mamahua Photo / File

- Do you envisage a state of involvement? What does that term in security policy?

-no turning back in terms of absolutely arbitrary powers granted to security forces in under state of emergency that called state involvement. It is an understatement, because it does not cover national security, but public safety issues. This is a law which is clearly aimed to strengthen the participation of the Army and Navy in activities against organized crime.

"It's a trend that has penetrated institutions.

"Yes, comes the famous Aspan (Agreement for the Security and Prosperity Partnership of North America), which is not a treaty. In this theory was accepted U.S. national security. In fact we are folding at the legal level of integration with that country's security, even though they not acquire a mutual commitment. Interestingly, the actual commitments and avoids Aspan migration in the United States to ensure public safety in Mexico. We joined their strategy through hundreds of thousands dead when there is not one the other side.

"The U.S. government does not acquire even the commitment to prevent the passage of arms. We are in a vicious circle. Washington offset the huge loss in its balance of payments for the purchase of drugs, which is estimated at 35 billion dollars with the sale of arms to Mexico. It is estimated that in this country more than 18 million guns, nut is closing in Mexico. "

"You claim that, if approved, there would be an important step in the dissolution of Congress, but also notes a latent risk for journalism.

"Passing this law is a suicide of Congress, because contrary to the provisions of Article 29 of the Constitution is being refused to be exercised control over the activities of the army in a state of emergency and the state to individuals or communities affected . And water to the press. If a country attacks on freedom of expression, murder and disappearance of journalists, this is Mexico. The media will be the first who will suffer that.

- Who is to protect the Army and Navy?

"Now say it to protect the Army, and no, gentlemen. It is assumed that this stupid war (Felipe) Calderon was to protect society, and now says it seeks to protect the Army. They say, 'How good that the Army has the scruples to ask us a law. " Indeed, he wants to act within the law, you should because you do not know what will happen in the future. The soldiers are protecting and civilians are leaving the whole package to them.

This is a terrible sword of Damocles, because one of the arguments of PRI and PAN is that we must better regulate what is already happening and gets worse every day. This leads to the end of Mexican diplomacy. It is an outrage, an outrage. We must be very alert. And what we are asking is: accept I legalize the abuse or abuse.
