Pokemon Best Resistance

: Alicante

What I hear about the difficulties with the city of Alicante to give compulsory license to the civic committee for the recovery of historical memory to install three memorials in that beautiful city fills me with sorrow and reflection inspires me.

Grief

because in these years that it has recalled the LXX anniversary of the civil war, the great divide of history and contemporary English society, local authorities do not seem willing to Alicante is not even minimally honor victims because they were innocent (of the bombing) or defeated soldiers.

reflection because it is symptomatic of a mood and a certain ignorance of the past. As regards the former, perhaps the City do you think that in a democratic regime one day erase the memory of the years of lead and revenge? And in regard to the latter, do you think perhaps the City Council that historians do not clarify the meaning of that fratricidal conflict last?, what history we are building will not dismount the myths propagated by the victors and what does not ever support the view that Franco managed to delay and extend the war to kill "reds" and tamed his generals, even if the cost of countless victims of their own side?

Alicante City Council seems to forget that the gospel truth makes free. Also that historians do not often talking down to those who impede their knowledge.

Arcadio Blasco - Narrator

the 26th of November 2008 to February 28, 2009 can visit the exhibition of the work of Arcadio Blasco in the halls of the Museum University of Alicante (MUA).

The exhibition is sponsored by the University of Alicante, the MUA and the CAM.

What Is The Easiest State To Get A Pe

object of Arcadi Blasco year

Mutxamel The artist, if they did not, it was born nearly eighty foot-one. The difficult birth was almost unable to leave their arms as they were broken at the event. Thanks to the care received, the limbs returned to their original state and Arcadi good long after, he was able to use them wisely in ceramic work. And also, to play Mozart and Beethoven on the piano, one of his favorite hobbies and with which, from time to time, happy evening to their friends.

Arcadi, good movie buff, preferences saved between a great movie by William Wyler, "The Best Years of Our Lives". In case you do not remember, is the return of three soldiers in World War their homes. Although at first all are tributes and smiles, people soon forget them and their circumstances. The film, an American director, a Jew born in Germany and studied violin in Paris, was hailed by critics at the time and won seven Oscars.

As in the film, the 2008 can be also one of the best years in the life of artist Bonalba. Have been the months in which he rounded out his idea of \u200b\u200b"Sheepfold", a temporary fence that are livestock herders and Arcadi has become a permanent garrison fold where modern man, who is considered the center of the universe without realizing that is enclosed by its own limitations, which can never jump. Many legends in all languages remember the words Sonsona Nearby, the radical nationalists, extreme religious, neo-cons, bigots, I love my fold, you love your fold, he loves his pasture.

This fence will be part of the anthology that opens next Wednesday at the Museum of the University of Alicante directed by Mauro Hernandez. The exhibition, coordinated by Matthew wisely and Piqueras and the collaboration of the CAM, will bring the work of past and present of a great artist who, like the protagonists of the film, Wyler, sometimes when the homesickness of his solitude Bonalba it invades, it is considered a little out of play and misses Madriles intense life in the past.

Two days later, on Friday next week, the Club INFORMATION, attentive to our cultural life, will open an exhibition of drawings and engravings that this year has prepared the artist on the folds. For if anything is missing, the closure will be used in the MUA to submit a Pere Miquel Campos talks with Arcadi, promising juicy revelations about his character and personality.

This past summer, the artist went to collect a personal invitation Chile Michelle Bachelet, president of the country. There he was in for a pleasant surprise: not only attended the reopening of the International Museum of the Resistance Salvador Allende in the plaza outside the La Moneda Palace, crowded by a huge crowd, but one of his works, belonging to the "architecture of fear", was shown between the pieces selected for inclusion on a permanent basis along with Antonio Saura, Antoni Tàpies, Joan Miró, Chillida, Millares, Andreu Alfaro, Manolo Valdes and Eusebio Sempere. The event was present, but with a greatly reduced health, Allende's widow, Hortensia Bussi. The next day, the artist was invited to Alicante tea at the private residence of Isabel Allende, daughter of the president and deputy to the Chilean Congress. And is that Arcadi had much to do with international artistic solidarity towards the regime of Salvador Allende. He, as president of the Association of Artists of Spain, received with enthusiasm the idea of \u200b\u200bMoreno Galván and immediately the world's leading artists began donating a piece for the occasion. Arcadi remembers with bitterness when they arrived in Santiago as part of these works had been Pinochet's coup, and as if by magic, many of them disappeared, destroyed by barbarism, or in the mansions of the oligarchy.

In this unforgettable year, Arcadi has opened exhibitions in Madrid and Catalonia, lectured and taught cursos. Por ejemplo, en el Pazo de Cultura de Pontevedra, junto a la ceramista griega Teodora Chorafras. Allí, además, recordó viejos tiempos con su amigo Isaac Díaz Pardo, alma máter de la fábrica de porcelana en Sargadelos. Pero lo que de verdad sigue entusiasmando al artista mutxamelero son sus clases de los jueves a los chavales y chavalas del colegio Manuel Antón, en su pueblo. Una vez a la semana, Arcadi comparte arroz con los profes del centro, se echa una partida de dominó mientras se debate sobre lo divino (menos) y lo humano (más) y, a las tres en punto de la tarde, a trabajar con los más jóvenes. Les desvela los secretos de la cerámica y de la importancia del barro, sobre su conexión cultural with the history and customs of civilization. Conjugated conducting mural, "The Musicians" by Picasso, for example, teaching that no man ceramics could not return from space: When the spacecraft enters Earth's atmosphere, he explains, there is more friction of 2,000 degrees, a temperature hold any metal without melting. Only, he insists, ceramics manipulated with silicon carbide and titanium as a base, can resist.

This year languishing, Arcadi Blasco received and will receive a lot of joy, all the sea of \u200b\u200bfair, but I am sure, his greatest satisfaction is the to have gained a well deserved title: professor emeritus of public school Mutxamel Manuel Antón. I said, this man was born to walk.

Emilio Soler is Professor of Modern History at the UA.

Denunciation of the fellow workers of PEMEX

Subject: dismissal of the board of the UNTyPP

Day Today, 14 November morning, members of the National Executive Committee of the National Union of Technical and Professional Petroleum (UNTyPP) were evicted from their places of work, by members of a paramilitary group that operates in all facilities Petroleos Mexicanos, known colloquially as "special" which is run by retired military. The reason for this outrage is that the March 18, technicians and professionals PEMEX we became a union called the National Union of Technical and Professional Petroleum (UNTyPP) to defend our rights and our industry.

On 21 August this year, Secretary General Mr. Didier Marquina UNION Cárdenas, appeared at the offices of Assistant Director Corporate Human Resources, Mr. Marco Antonio Murillo Soberanis, at the request of the . Mr. Murillo has accused members of the UNTyPP, of being disloyal to Petroleos Mexicanos, to find damage to our company. Dismissed our right of association, even that is enshrined in the Constitution of the United Mexican States, as well as in Article 2 of the Convention on Freedom of Association and Protection of the Right to Organise Convention, which was signed by our country, with mandatory for the Mexican government. Mr. Murillo pressured him to withdraw the application for registration that on April 29 did to the Ministry of Labour and Social Welfare, and that, as soon as possible and verbal, his knowledge did such withdrawal, with threat to think about her future and that of their children.

Today marks such threats. This action by the top management of Petroleos Mexicanos flagrantly violates art. 123 of the Constitution, the Federal Labour Law, the Convention 135 of the International Labour Organization (ILO), Convention on Workers' Representatives, 1971, signed by Mexico in its first article states "The representatives of workers in the undertaking shall enjoy effective protection against any act prejudicial to them, including dismissal, based on their capacity as representatives of workers, their activities as their union membership or participation in union activities, provided that they act in accordance with the laws, collective agreements or other jointly agreed arrangements. "

We are concerned and angry that executives of our company representatives to lay off workers to stop exercising a human right and constitutional. Doing so violates the commitment to recognize freedom of association that Petróleos Mexicanos established in January 2006 by signing the Global Compact promoted by the United Nations Organization (Principle 3: Businesses should uphold the freedom of association and recognition effective right to collective bargaining.).

is not the first time it happens, every time the technicians and professionals have formed a union, management of PEMEX dismisses the Executive Committee and key activists. That was in 1975 when the first union was formed in 1995 when we formed the National Association of Technical and Professional Petroleum (ANTyPP) in 2004 when we formed the National Union of Workers of Petroleum Industry Trust (UNTCIP) and when the National Union Workers of Petroleum Industry Trust (ONTCIP) had won his record in the Supreme Court.

This repressive approach by the Mexican Petroleum Directorate is not politics it deserves Petroleos Mexicanos, or its employees. Technicians and Professionals UNTyPP affiliates at all times have been conducted with integrity and honesty, have complied fully with its responsibilities throughout their working life and have always encouraged and put their commitment to a PEMEX efficient, effective, sustainable and respectful the environment, human rights and work for all workers.

As members of the Frente Mexicano Pro Derechos Humanos, we ask the dissemination of this flagrant violation of our labor and human rights

Manifesto: 70 years ago in the port of Alicante

In March 1939 English Civil War ended in the port of Alicante. Following the departure of the legendary ship "Stanbrook, were trapped there for about fourteen thousand people who had meaning in the defense of legitimate and constitutional arrangements of the Second English Republic against the military uprising supported by the fascist powers. After the arrival of Italian troops under the command of Gambara Gastone, had to leave the latter territory loyal to the Republic and, as prisoners, were taken to a field of almond trees, located between Goteta and Vistahermosa, while others were imprisoned in the castle of Santa Barbara and San Fernando in the Plaza de Toros, in some theaters, the School for the Blind and Adult Reformatory. In Campo de los Almendros, republican prisoners were in excruciating conditions, without food and almost without water for five or six days until they were transferred to various prisons and in particular, piled on freight rail cars, the field Albatera concentration.

After seventy years of these tragic events, Alicante Civic Commission for the Recovery of Historical Memory aims to raise awareness throughout the world since its importance and significance is universal, the tragedy of those helpless defenders of freedom and democracy in those last days of the English Republic. It has therefore prepared a series of acts designed to remember those events and get them to carry out their proposed installation of a memorial - a sculpture by Eusebio Sempere "in the Port of Alicante for a" Memorial "in the Field of Almendros, proposals are pending approval by the authorities. We try, thereby repairing an old injustice, offset manipulated history and combat against oblivion, ultimately settle a moral debt that English democracy is still with Spain who advocated a tolerant, peaceful, educated and supportive, and kept the idea of \u200b\u200bSpain away from their homeland in the sad years of exile, with enormous dignity.

To get back and dignify these "places of memory" of the Second Republic, we ask the cooperation of institutions and citizens who, being concerned with maintaining, strengthening and expanding democracy, understand that it can not be build on oblivion.

confidence the U.S. has perpetrated the greatest financial scam in the history of mankind

For the historian Emmanuel Todd, the election of Barack Obama 'grant some extra years of life to the rule ", but not be enough however to restore the authority of a power in the process of decommissioning.

The announced election of Barack Obama will be interpreted as a restoration of American democracy, says Emmanuel Todd, but will it be enough to operate the breaks expected? The historian and demographer, writing in 2002 work After the Empire: An Essay on the decomposition of American system, does not hide his perplexity. Although warmly welcomed the arrival of a black president to the White House fears, said that the event is not part of a "process of disintegration."

Six years ago you described a country become "an element of international disorder", is the election of Barack Obama can change this?

At first this election will give the impression that the United States began flourishing again. With Bush we have had the worst presidents, Rantamplan a kind of warmongering that his awkwardness increases destruction of the American empire. Obama comes back with the image of a dynamic and optimistic country. A civilized country with a more reasonable foreign policy, seeking to withdraw from Iraq, who will not declare war on Iran. A country, however, could also remain as the previous anti-Russian, Democrats see Russia as the only genuine U.S. strategic adversary.

In the current climate of collapse, financial and moral failure, and given the awesome responsibility of the U.S. in the global turmoil, Obama's victory allow pro-US Western countries say the United States is again wonderful. This victory granted some years of extra life to the rule.

The arrival of a black man through the ballot box to the White House would not confirm the changes that have occurred in American society?
two events occur in the United States truly remarkable. The implosion of the financial system and economic myth on one side and the implosion of the racist structure elsewhere. Under these conditions, it is understood that Americans are in some state of levitation. But while the collapse of racist sentiment is obviously good news, racism will be gone really the day that voters do not expect anything in particular to a president that is black. Obama is an American politician. His speech is full of the usual references to religious values. It is surrounded by figures from the Democratic establishment, the same Democrats who, even in greater numbers than Republicans, voted subsidies to the banking system. Continued ...

Obama's decision disturbs cabinet chief defends Arab

By Alistair Lyon

BEIRUT (Reuters) - Barack Obama's election as U.S. president pleased many Arabs and Iranians angry with the policies of George W. Bush in the last eight years.

But Obama's decision to appoint Rahm Emanuel, a militant pro-Israel political operator, as chief of staff of the White House, caused concern among those who hoped the next U.S. leader would be more fair and sensible in their approach to the Middle East.

"For millions of Arabs who expressed their joy at the momentous victory for Obama, the appointment (Emanuel) ruined a party that had little life," the analyst wrote Wednesday based Jordan Osama al-Sharif in the Saudi daily Arab News.

Another common vision, the leading newspaper of Morocco to Massa said the new powerful post of Emanuel stated "the vast extent of Israeli influence in the Obama administration."

The Iranian daily Kayhan International, English speaking, he also led an attack on Emanuel, describing the Illinois congressman as a "Zionist with deep family ties with Israel."

The newspaper said that although Obama favored dialogue had also advocated imposing tougher sanctions on Iran over its nuclear program and, like Bush, did not rule out possible military action.

While Emanuel political history remained strong positions in favor of Israel, combined with support for the peace process led by the United States, not all Israelis are happy with his appointment.

"The guy is very close to the left and I'm more afraid of him than Obama," said Shmuel Sandler, Israeli political scientist at Bar Ilan University, referring to the possibility that United States pressure Israel to make concessions to Palestinians. Continued ...

Mexico will grow 1.9% this year and 0.9 The following corrects the IMF

taken from Day

The correction was made by an "unusually uncertain outlook"

For Latin America has reduced the expectation to 4.5 and 2.5%

prospects growth worsened last month, says

An "unusually uncertain outlook" was on Thursday the International Monetary Fund (IMF) to reduce the expected growth expected in 2008 and 2009. For Mexico, the situation will be more adverse than anticipated by the agency last month. The gross domestic product (GDP) 1.9 percent rebound this year and 0.9 percent next lower rates at 0.1 and 0.9 points respectively, to that provided by the body in the first week of October.

global economy into recession in 2009, said yesterday in letters to the IMF. The current outlook for advanced economies is that the activity will have a negative rate of 0.3 percent next year, an estimated 0.8 points down when the body did in the first week of October. "This be the first annual contraction of the postwar period, "he said yesterday as it released an updated World Economic Outlook (WEO, for its acronym in English).

The downward revisions of projected GDP growth in 2009 are more pronounced in emerging-contained group in Mexico, and developing, which groups countries with lower income and amounts to an adjustment one percentage point.

In the case of Latin America, the International Monetary Fund lowered the growth forecast to 4.5 percent in 2008 and 2.5 percent in 2009, lower rates of 0.1 and 0.7 per cent to under the WEO released on 8 October. In 2006 and 2007 the GDP of the region rose 5.5 and 5.6 percent respectively.

The IMF reports each semester, in April and October, the WEO, a publication containing the growth prospects of 185 countries. Usually you upgrade from one to another month, but is the first time that corrects its forecast just a month after reporting half-yearly projections.

"Global economic activity is slowing quickly," stated yesterday the IMF. He added that growth prospects have worsened over the past month, during which continued its course of debt reduction financial sector and deteriorating confidence of producers and consumers. In this environment, global GDP will be 2.2 percent next year, 0.8 points less than the forecast made in October. Reduced demand

commodity prices weakened

For United States, which Mexico depends on foreign trade and investment, the IMF estimated that GDP will increase 1.4 percent in 2008, but recorded a negative rate of 0.7 percent in 2009.

In the report, while reducing the growth forecast, the IMF warned that the weakening of world demand "Depressing" the prices of raw materials, something interesting to countries like Mexico, whose finances depend on four of every 10 dollars of export earnings from crude oil.

"Because of the profound global slowdown, the strengthening U.S. dollar and the financial crisis, oil prices fell more than 50 percent from their highs, to levels not seen since early 2007." Therefore, the IMF revised down its estimate of oil prices (using the benchmark West Texas Intermediate) for next year, 100 to $ 68 a barrel.

In this situation, suggested that "a stronger macroeconomic response could mitigate the damage," so "there is a clear need to expand beyond macroeconomic stimulus than advertised so far to support growth and underpin the recovery of financial sector .

Save the people, not banks

Society Declaration of Political Economy and Latin American Critical Thinking at the global economic crisis.

live a structural crisis of the capitalist system. It is time to believe in their rescue, but to work for processing. The American people have been forced more than once, to help the bankers at the expense of their suffering. It's time to change history and not repeat the bailout of the financiers. Our priority is the people's needs.

The economic crisis stems from the financial and that is ongoing in these days can last for long. Could not seriously, as long as it is and how to keep their development, but what can be said is that it is the most serious and deepest since 1929/30, which propagates at a rate much higher than that by having a highly aggregated.

must also say that the current financial and economic crisis occurs within a context of multiple other crises, such as food, the raw materials, energy, environment, and also a military crisis which is not ruled out the use of weapons of mass destruction.

The U.S. economy, because of his three debts (private, public and foreign) are at risk of severe instability. Economic hegemony is undermined and questioned. Geostrategic hegemony survives, although it has suffered significant setbacks. For the same reasons, the current moment is particularly dangerous for all mankind since the U.S. does not waive the unipolar hegemony and dominance in different fields. This country is trying to even maintain their ideological and cultural hegemony, which undoubtedly affected by the contradictions that arise from the same crisis, both internally and with partners.

Since the crisis will worsen the antagonistic contradiction with global capitalism. Opens an extended period of seizures and the results are open. The ruling classes attempted to reconstitute the system with higher levels of exploitation of workers, who need to strengthen their organizations to deal with that aggression. Latin America has been the continent with the greatest resistance to neoliberalism scenario also opposed major uprisings. The social and political experience gained in some of our countries can make a road in the articulation of the necessary response.

neoliberal governments and social liberals in our region, even the so-called "progressive", maintained his belief in the logic of capital and seek his intervention to preserve the functioning of the capitalist market and the dominance of transnational corporations that occupy our territories. Allow the collapse of a large company or other speculative or productive, but immediately intervene that may jeopardize the logic of capital in the area of \u200b\u200bthe country. That means they will allow and even promote the greed of profit required by the aforementioned capital. State's fiscal crisis will deepen reducing investment public social spending and subsidies.

These policies will increase even more unemployment, job insecurity, lower wages and pensions, thus increasing poverty, misery and social exclusion.

There are, however, governments in Latin America, without necessarily pose a complete break with the capitalist system, trying to find a policy to deal differently with the inevitable consequences of the global crisis in their countries.

In any of these circumstances, workers and social movements must win and preserve their independence from the states and fight against exclusion policies unpopular seeking to shift the costs of the crisis of capital to work and central to peripheral countries.

why we need to define a pattern of economic and social policies within a strategy of survival and resistance of the popular sectors, especially workers, to the difficult period ahead, accompanied by an ideological offensive against the capitalist system This crisis shows his utter inability to meet the needs of our people.

We propose this set of policy measures:

is urgent and indispensable custody of private banking, depending on each country can be in control, intervention, or nationalization without compensation, following the principle of nationalizing private debt or re-transfer those assets into private hands.

1. Control and blocking the outflow of capital, preventing his escape.
2. Centralization and exchange-control policy of multiple exchange rates and differentiated. Moratorium
3. immediate audit of public debt, freeing up resources to meet social needs.
4. control commodity prices.
5. Maintenance and recovery of real wages of workers associated with a progressive tax policy affecting the capital and all speculation.
6. protection policies and incentives to domestic and economic activities with high employment generation. To this end public investment plays a key role.
7. Unemployment insurance and social protection policies to the unemployed and informal workers.
8. Re-nationalization of strategic enterprises. Nationalization of large private companies in bankruptcy. Recovery of national control of natural resources.
9. promote regional integration in the service of people, not capital. Such immediate measures are a response to the imposed social drama the crisis and initiate changes that to be fully realized, require advance towards socialism.

Save the people, not banks, that is the goal of Latin American Society of Political Economy and Critical Thinking address the crisis and its social consequences.

A country at war too tied to U.S. drug Homage to Allende

The opinion of an Italian, on the Mexican crisis. Gennaro Carotenuto

Latinoamerica

Today Mexico is the world's largest narco-state, worse than Colombia. In 2007 the dead of the war between cartels have been 2700, yesterday announced that in the first eight months of 2008 has reached 3,000 dead. Mass executions, severed heads, real battles with weapons of war, money that pollute rivers public life: that is the source of this war totally ignored by the Italian press. Mexico is currently a hell whose population is drowned among drug traffickers, the economic crisis and parts of the state shown accomplices of the drug cartels. Thus 40% of the population (equivalent to the entire population of Spain) weigh seriously considering leaving the country, ruled by the neoliberal right and filoestadounidense of Felipe Calderon, who is acting tough and unsuccessfully to Once you have leeway with drug money.

One in five Mexican states that a drug kingpin known personally, and for four out of five drug trafficking is part of the national culture. Bands like "Tigers of the North" or songs like "Contraband and Betrayal" are landmarks of a genre that wins: the narcocorrido. The traffickers have to a saint protector, Saint Jesus Malverde, a native of Sinaloa. But the drug culture is not just a genre of entertainment comparable to our neomelódicos. One out of every ten Mexicans said to have been the victim of a case of drug-related violence, one of three known to any victim.

are impressive data that give a measure of how difficult it is oriented in a spiral in which he dropped one of the most extraordinary of the world, since the Colombian cartels began using it in the 80's as a transit, and more later, on January 1, 1994, due to the entry into force of the FTA with the United States, a kind of colonization económica del país, que se tradujo en un desastre económico, la ruina del campo y la pérdida de puestos de trabajo.

Los 14 millones de mexicanos que se han visto obligados a emigrar desde entonces y los miles y miles de muertos en las guerras entre narcos son prueba del fracaso de un proyecto neoliberal de país que debería abandonarse cuanto antes. Sin embargo, el neoliberismo, que ha machacado literalmente la vida de una generación de campesinos mexicanos incapaces de competir contra las ayudas y más ayudas que recibe la agricultura estadounidense, y que los empuja a emigrar o a apuntarse a la mano de obra del narcotráfico, aunque sólo sea como contrabandista o como carne de cañón, no es sino una de faces one of the worst moral and material crisis in the history of this country.

Already in the 20's, at the time of prohibition in the United States, Mexico experienced an increase in crime linked to alcohol smuggling. Then, to the 70, there were still always something to smuggle marijuana and tulip north. The current phase of the drug in 80 starts and evolves until it reaches huge numbers: today 60% of all cocaine consumed in the United States comes or goes through Mexico. From 94 onwards, the NAFTA Free Trade Agreement with the U.S., became the catalyst of the present situation. The drug was used alternative to depopulation of the countryside. As a result of all this, today we are experiencing a weak economy in a state equally weak, which makes the drug income are key to master, through the branch, the economy and the politics of the third most populous country the continent, after the U.S. and Brazil. The Mexican War and the transformation of one of the top 12 economies in the world today a narco-state is perhaps the most underrated news media system and not Italian, but worldwide.

Guru Greenspan admits that it was a mistake to rely on the free market

I've never believed in the "repentance" of these unfortunate neoliberal, rather I think they try to wash my face to continue trying to impose their now if "good policies" accompanied by "good intentions" no doubt that to-morrow the same cause of so much poverty and misery, we want to sell the story that now if the policies they have are what humanity needs and again a bunch of freeloaders technocrats in developing countries tried to impose in their countries to continue giving to the transnational work product of the working class.

From bunnies Playboy to General Motors workers face unemployment.

The IMF initiated investigations into many financial companies, to be occupied by more agents.

New York, 22 October. You know things are really bad when they start to lay off the "bunny" of Playboy the encueratrices have fewer customers in the clubs, the escorts offer discounts, the FBI is investigating the "gentlemen" of large financial companies, once so "respected" and now accused of being drunk bandits, one of the gurus of unregulated capitalism admits is "not working" and the IMF chief is embroiled in a scandal over his romantic adventures amid the worst financial disaster since the Great Depression.

For now is the end of the party.

costs of financial crisis on Wall Street already appearing on the streets of cities, villages and camps in this country every day with announcements of job cuts and reduction of demand and consumption, and increased debt at the federal, state and personal.

Today Alan Greenspan, former Federal Reserve Chairman considered guru of the financial system, had to admit: "I made a mistake in assuming that self-interest of organizations, specifically banks and others were those who were most able to protect their shareholders and their interests in companies "and said that in his free market ideology" I found a flaw. I do not know how significant or permanent it is, but I've been very distressed by that fact, "he told a congressional hearing about the crisis.

For nearly two decades (until 2006), Greenspan controlled the U.S. central bank, where he promoted deregulation. Democratic Rep. Henry Waxman asked Greenspan if today does not work its ideology of free markets, to which he replied: "Absolutely, precisely. That is precisely the reason why I was surprised, because for 40 years or more I worked with considerable evidence that it worked exceptionally well. "

This "mistake" to rely on the virtues of "free market" to commit Greenspan and much of the political and economic leadership of this country has cost more disastrous every day.

General Motors and Chrysler today announced that more workers will cease on the thousands who have already settled, and in recent days, the drug maker Merck said it would cut 7 000 200 jobs, 12 percent of their payroll. Yahoo announced a cut of at least 10 percent of their workers. Xerox, about 3 000, with a long line of companies that are doing the same. All this is in addition to the unemployment figures have already been registered. According to calculations by the Economic Policy Institute, based on official figures, the number of unemployed has increased by 2.2 million over last year, coming in September to 9.5 million in total, the highest number in 15 years.

The financial industry itself could come to say goodbye to a total of 200 000, AP reported (110 thousand already have been lost to date). Goldman Sachs, an investment bank's most prestigious, announced today that it will cease to about 3 000 200.

On the other hand, the number of foreclosures has increased 21 percent, compared with a year ago, and some estimate that an average of 10 000 households are added each week. That is why one of the most boring annual events in general became almost red note this year. This week at the convention of the Mortgage Bankers Association held in San Francisco, someone tried to make a "citizen's arrest" of Karl Rove (political strategist for George W. Bush), reaching the podium and accusing him of "treason." Another table was interrupted by protesters demanding a moratorium on foreclosures, and inputs to meet is chanted slogans against the bankers.

This weekend, at least two demonstrations, one on Wall Street and another in Baltimore, have been called to denounce the bailout of banks and financial and demand suspension of foreclosures for families affected by this crisis.

The popular anger and the political game on how to respond to all this has forced it to announce a series of investigations by the FBI about the handling of some of the companies that are at the heart of the crisis, including Lehman Brothers and Mortgage giant Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac But these efforts will expand to other, and the task is so big that the FBI will have to double the number agents working in "financial crime."

At the same time, executives from AIG, the nation's largest insurer was rescued by 85 billion dollars by the federal government, now under investigation by the attorney general of New York, which has forced the company suspended payments on a bond fund for executives of 600 million, as well as a payment of 19 million that was to deliver to its former chief executive.

The state attorney general, Andrew Cuomo, denounced the idea of \u200b\u200bpaying bonuses to executives who led almost bankrupt the company. A couple of weeks the company caused an uproar when it was revealed that he spent hundreds of thousands of dollars on holiday in luxury hotels for dozens of its executives after being rescued with public funds.

And while this crisis is sweeping the country and the world, and all speak of a "global recession," the IMF attempts to answer what he called "the most serious financial crisis since the Great Depression." But just at this moment another crisis erupted: the revelation that Dominique Strauss-Kahn, IMF managing director, is under internal investigation to see if abused his power in favor of a mistress who worked with him and who resigned in August. Apparently the affair -Between Strauss-Kahn and Piroska Nagy, a senior official in the fund's Africa department, "threatens the reliability of his handling of the multilateral agency.

Thus, among gurus "free market" confessing that might not work, the old "masters of the universe" (Wall Street executives) under investigation, bankers under siege in their conventions, a president who has approval ratings lowest in history, millions paid and the costs of the crisis, and many analysts say it is just beginning.

to the "bunnies" from Playboy are waiting to see how many will lose their job with that company by massively reducing its offices in Los Angeles and New York, according to some versions of the media. And according to some reports, the clubs for "gentlemen" in New York are increasingly empty, with encueratrices dancing for fewer customers who pay less.

already turned off the music because it was the women, there is no pachangas all paid. The party is over.

How the U.S. military I became a terrorist

Aaron Glantz / Michael Prysner

ICH / Alternet

Rebellion Translated from English by Leyens Germain

In March this year, a courageous group Veterans helped to understand what the war in a historic event held in Silver Spring, Md., inspired by Vietnam veterans a generation earlier. "Winter Soldier: Iraq and Afghanistan" convened more than 200 soldiers who have served in the so-called "War on Terror." As fellow soldiers before them, who shared stories that laid bare the nightmare of Vietnam, these veterans testified about the crimes that were committed on behalf of Americans during the occupation of Iraq and Afghanistan. The hearings lasted four days, in their testimony, soldiers described how the discarding of the rules of engagement of the armed forces and its systematic dehumanization of Iraqi and Afghan civilians has led to horrible acts of violence against men, women and innocent children. "These are not isolated incidents," was a common refrain, even as the episodes they described seemed exceptionally brutal. For many veterans, it was the first time they had told their stories.

Now, the searing testimony has been compiled in an important new book: "Winter Soldier: Iraq and Afghanistan: Eyewitness Accounts of the Occupation" [Winter Soldier, Iraq and Afghanistan: Stories from the occupation by eyewitnesses] edited by Aaron Glantz and published by Haymarket Books. I strongly encourage you to buy the book, preferably through the Web site of Iraq Veterans Against the War, which organized the Winter Soldier hearings and continues to hold similar events in cities across the country. All proceeds from books purchased through IVAW will go to support its crucial work.

The following excerpt comes from Michael Prysner, a corporal in the Army Reserve who came home in February 2004.

- Liliana Segura, Editor, War on Iraq Special Coverage

20/10/2008 "Alternet" - When I joined the army, I said that racism no longer exists in the military. A legacy of inequality and discrimination was suddenly washed away by something called the Equal Opportunity Program [EO]. We sat in core classes, and each unit had an EO representative to ensure that they would not show elements of racism. The army seemed firmly dedicated to smashing any hint of racism.

Then came Sept. 11 and began to hear new words like "towel head" and "camel jockey," and most disturbing, " of sand nigger." At first the words did not come of other soldiers lower-enlisted, but from my superiors: my platoon sergeant, my first sergeant, my battalion commander. For the entire chain of command, these viciously racist terms were suddenly acceptable.

When I arrived in Iraq in 2003, I learned a new word, "haji." Haji was the enemy. Haji was every Iraqi. It was not a person, a parent, teacher, or a worker. It is important to understand where it comes from that word. For Muslims, the most important thing is to make a pilgrimage to Mecca, the Hajj. Which has made the pilgrimage to Mecca is a haji. It's something that, in traditional Islam, is the highest calling of religion. We take the best of Islam and made it worse.

Since the inception of this country, racism has been used to justify expansion and oppression. Native Americans were called "savages," the Africans were called all sorts of things to excuse slavery, and Vietnam veterans know the multitude of words used to justify that imperialist war.

So haji is the word we used. It was the word we used on this particular mission I'm going to talk. We have heard a lot about raids and kicking doors to break the people's houses and ransacking their houses, but this was a kind of raid different.

We never got any explanation for our orders. We were only told that a group of five or six houses was now property of the U.S. military, and we had to go and make those families leave their homes.

went to these houses and informed the families that their homes were no longer theirs. We provided them no alternative, nowhere to go, no compensation. They were very confused and very scared. Do not know what to do and would not leave, so we had to be removed.

One family in particular, a woman with two little girls, a very old man and two men middle-aged, dragged them from their house and threw into the street. We arrested the men because they refused to leave, and sent to prison.

A few months later I found, as we were short interrogators and I was given that assignment. Supervised and participated in hundreds of interrogations. I remember one in particular that I will share with you. It was the moment that really showed me the nature of that occupation.

This particular detainee was already stripped down to his underwear, hands behind his back and a sandbag on his head. I never saw her face. My task was to take a metal folding chair and smash it against the wall beside to his head - facing the wall with his nose touching it - while another soldier screamed over and over again the same question. No matter what his answer, my job was to slam the chair against the wall. We did until we got tired.

I was told to make sure he kept standing up, but something was wrong with his leg. He was wounded and fell to the ground all the time. The sergeant in charge and told me to put it back up, so I had to pick it up and put him against the wall. Kept falling off. I kept pulling him and putting him against the wall. My sergeant was upset with me because he could not continue to stand. Grabbed him and hit him several times against the wall. And it was. When the man went down to the ground, I noticed blood pouring down from under the sandbag. I let it sit, and when I noticed my sergeant coming again, I said quickly to re-stand. Instead of guarding my unit from this detainee, I realized I was guarding the detainee from my unit.

I tried hard to be proud of my service, but all I could feel was shame. Racism could no longer mask the reality of the occupation. They are human beings. Since then I have been plagued by guilt. I feel guilty every time I see an old man like that could not walk who we rolled to a stretcher and told the Iraqi police to take him. I feel guilty every time I see a mother with her children, as the one who cried hysterically and screamed that we were worse than Saddam as we forced her from her home. I feel guilty every time I see a young girl as I grabbed the arm and dragged into the street.

We were told we were fighting terrorists, the real terrorist was me, and the real terrorism is this occupation. Racism within the military has long been an important tool to justify the destruction and occupation of another country. Without racism, soldiers would realize that they have more in common with the Iraqi people with the billionaires who send us to war.

I threw families to the streets in Iraq, only to return home and find families thrown onto the street in this country, in this tragic crisis of foreclosure. Our enemies are not 8,000 kilometers, are here at home, and if we organize and fight, we can stop this war, we can stop this government, and create a better world. -----------

Indigenous Mobilization throughout Colombia

the past six years have been killed and expelled 54,000 Indians 1253

Simone Bruno

Alai-amlatina

The castle built on a bubble of popularity of President Uribe seems to start falling. Never in the 6 years since the President in office had registered so many protests or duration, or intensity, or participation. The presidential figure built on a belligerent rhetoric has hidden behind social issues "Sacrifice to win the war against terrorists." But now the real life problems of Colombians are exploiting aggrieved by an economic crisis that hit the country hard.

From October 12, the so-called day of the race, that Western rhetoric designated as the day when America was discovered, forgetting that it was inhabited, the Indian protest has been coupled with various social sectors and mobilized . The judicial sector has been completed yesterday a 43-day strike, something unprecedented cane cutters in the Cauca Valley region for over a busy month mills, demanding dignity and direct contracting with a salary righteous transporters strike have ended a long few days ago. The student prepares a rising sector for 23 and the Registrar General began an indefinite strike today.

began on 12 Minga of people commemorating the 516 years of resistance, the demonstrations take place throughout the country and this has been a catalyst for the protest to receive moral and material support nationally and internationally. The Minga has been accompanied by CUT (Unitary Central of Workers), the largest in the country, the judicial sector (Asonal Judicial), the sugar cane cutters, the education sector, rural areas and many more. Again indigenous Colombians 102 counting those who are not officially recognized, are proving to be the conscience and moral force of a country that has forgotten how to fight for their rights, drunk on presidential rhetoric. This result is not casual, indigenous Colombians, and most of all the Nasa, has been building relationships with other social sectors for years in an attempt to find common points minimum on which to build a series of joint measures to try to break down divisions historical Colombian social actors.

The reasons for the fight

At this moment, in several departments (Guajira, Córdoba, Sucre, Atlántico, Chocó, Norte de Santander, Risaralda, Caldas, Quindío, Valle del Cauca, Cauca, Tolima, Huila, Casanare, Meta and Boyacá) mobilized thousands of Indians are asking for dialogue with the government on 5 fundamental points which, as they say, contain many more. (1)

One of the reasons for the protests is the number of killings of indigenous people has increased considerably in recent weeks. According to ONIC (National Indigenous Organization of Colombia): "Over the past six years, 1,253 natives have been killed across the country [...] every 53 hours an Indian is killed [...] and at least 54,000 have been expelled from their ancestral lands. "Only in the last 15 days have killed 19 Indians.

Another reason is the failure of the State of the agreements signed with communities. A representative example is the Nasa people. On December 21, 1991 , 20 Indians, including women and children, were massacred with the complicity of the security forces in what is known as the slaughter of the Nile The state was responsible for the slaughter and was recognized internationally and is committed to comply with the recommendations of IACHR (Inter-American Commission on Human Rights), in justice, individual and collective reparation. The former President Ernesto Samper himself apologized publicly on behalf of the Colombian State to the victims of this slaughter, their relatives and to the people NASA. To date these arrangements have not been observed, moreover, the current government committed the September 13, 2005, through the latest agreement, to comply with all outstanding obligations no later than two years. To date, no refund has been complied from 15,000 acres to the people NASA.

Indians also oppose a series of laws such as the Rural Statute, the Mining Code, laws and plans of water, forest law, promoted by the Uribe government, who "choose to favor the economic interests and help territorial dispossession " according to ONIC. These laws are contrary to Article 120 of the Constitution of 1991 which states: "the use of natural resources in indigenous habitats by the State shall be made without harming the cultural, social and economic such habitats, and likewise subject to prior information and consultation of indigenous communities concerned. The benefits of this use by indigenous peoples are subject to the Constitution and the law. "

In the past 6 years, always according to ONIC, 53,885 Indians have been driven from their lands and today, 18 Colombian indigenous peoples are at risk of disappearing because they are currently less than 200 inhabitants, and ten have less than 100. As they reiterated, "Native Indian without land is dead."

These rights to land and life are contained in the UN Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples, adopted in September 2007, signed by all Latin American countries except Colombia. Today the Indians also move its adoption in this country.

These are the reasons that lie behind the great mobilization of the Indians who ask for a direct meeting with President Uribe.

The ONIC reported bring the following information on the action: in Tolima, some 2,000 indigenous Nasa Pijaos and runs in between Guam and Espinal peacefully, like other 400 indigenous Embera Chami in Armenia, capital of Quindio. In Caldas, is the concentration in the municipality of Riosucio, and indigenous people in El Chocó maintain a peaceful takeover of the Ombudsman in Quibdó. Within the headquarters of the Office more than 300 indigenous Embera Katios Dóvida and working on committees with regional authorities on issues such as health, education or food security. Outside, a similar number of Indians support the peaceful takeover.

In the Valle del Cauca, on the road connecting Palmira Popayan, Florida and Pradera, at the roundabout of the bridge there are over one thousand indigenous Embera Chami, Eperara Siapidaara and Wannan. In Huila, 9 "goats" that came from the guards have been detained by authorities after requisition to each of the 500 Indians, they did not want to miss.

In Guajira: despite the winter and disasters in many of its settlements in Manauare and Riohacha mediations, the Wayuu are mobilized in the path of the hat due to the capital of La Guajira. The marchers, from Friday, are healing the territory with songs, dances, ceremonies and reaffirmation of the word the indigenous receive Wiwa, indigenous students and other sectors. The meeting point is the Universidad de la Guajira.

In Cordoba Zenú and thousands of indigenous Embera Katio and the Upper San Jorge, come together in this Minga, dignity and rights of indigenous peoples, in total, it is estimated that about 40 000 indigenous people have gone roads and community centers to join the National Minga of Indigenous Resistance.

The Mary

The heaviest fighting has taken place in the Mary-Piendamó (Cauca) where 20,000 ethnic Indians Guambiano Nasa Yanacona Totoró, Coconuco and Eperara-Siapirara have taken the Panamerican highway between Cali and Popayan, to draw national attention.

The State has sent the anti-riot (riot police), stating that in 10 minutes would clear the road. Indigenous resistance has been maintained for more than 24 hours after two days, at this time seems once again taken the road.

Mary was generated in the extremely violent confrontation during which there have been more than 70 injured and two dead Indians, one of which is Ramos Valencia, from the shelter Tacueyó, which has received a bullet in the head, he crossed from side to side. What has

spent in this shelter have been extremely serious. The national police, under the responsibility of President Alvaro Uribe, the governor of Cauca, Guillermo González Mosquera and riot police commander, Colonel Jorge Cartagena, has used unconventional weapons against the indigenous people who defended only with batons and stones. The police, in addition to gas, machetes and clubs, have used bullets and shot rifles recalzados which are a mixture of black powder, nails, tacks and glass that, when detonated, generates a burst of shrapnel. Some of these unconventional unexploded grenades have been delivered to international delegates from Wednesday are Maria Piendamó present.

The international community realized the seriousness of the facts and is accompanied by the mobilization. Officials have come from the embassies of Canada, Sweden, Switzerland, Spain and the United States and United Nations representatives and the European Community, UNHCR, OCHA and UNICEF. Visitors have asked the police not to invade the receipt of Maria because under the Constitution, the indigenous authorities are state authority in their reserves. And the guards they may be searched without Indian approval. Law enforcement, once recovered the road, infiltrated the guard and burned several houses.

In addition to the attack with bullets, the indigenous community have been victims of a shameful media campaign. Offensive

media

Several media outlets have done more to quote government sources, without realizing the pain of going to check the news, accusing the Indian use firearms and to be infiltrated by guerrillas the FARC.

speak lies against these facts, the dead and injured indigenous documented in photos. The process of making the road is a decision that comes from below, the residents at a meeting proposed to the Governors of the councils actions to take, they meet, decide and report assemblies, no guerrillas, no decisions of a town extremely conscious decision making as a community.

The criminalization of protest is an exercise widely practiced in Colombia where the FARC are transformed into an excuse to crush social movements. According to the President, guerrillas are students, cutters, judges, indigenous teachers, transporters and farmers. If so, its democratic security policy would be a real failure, the whole country being infiltrated by the guerrillas.

The same people who accuse them of being guerrillas farmers are those who are tried for crimes of the paramilitaries, these if real, as evidenced by the 60 MPs involved in the para-political scandal, or even the former governor of Cauca, Juan José Chaux Mosquera, has attacked both the indigenous Nasa. Chaux, having served as governor, was appointed by President Uribe, Ambassador to the Dominican Republic, according to the had to resign for his proven links with paramilitaries.

While these notes end news comes a new take on the road in the Mary and new attacks with firearms by the police and the army.

repression of these days is being given as part of the largest anti-government protests Uribe, today is expected a large march in support of Indigenous Peoples in the capital Bogota.
