Anonyme, Friday, March 5, 2004 - 17:38

Bolivarian Resistance

From Japan to the 2004 Mumbai, India World Social Forum and the streets of Quito, Ecuador, hundreds of millions of people are calling for an end to US militarism and an end to US economic domination. In Latin America we have a long history of Yankee (Gr!!!ngo) meddling and terrorism. There have been very few wars in the Americas and the people who share the hemisphere with the US have never been any kind of threat and yet the US has intervened, backed dictators or overthrown governments in every country in the region ...

ADIOS: US MILITARY BASES
Si… Resistance is Everywhere

From Japan to the 2004 Mumbai, India World Social Forum and the streets of Quito, Ecuador, hundreds of millions of people are calling for an end to US militarism and an end to US economic domination. In Latin America we have a long history of Yankee (Gr!!!ngo) meddling and terrorism. There have been very few wars in the Americas and the people who share the hemisphere with the US have never been any kind of threat and yet the US has intervened, backed dictators or overthrown governments in every country in the region -- some many times (Mexico, Guatemala, Nicaragua, Panama, Cuba, Colombia, Brazil ... Haiti come to mind). Somehow the US kept this up despite rulings by the World Court and condemnations from Europe and the UN.

So why revolutions everywhere now?

Why will Wal-Marts and Monsantos soon be burning or
taken away?

The US is one very tricky salesman. In cahoots with the Latin American elite the US imported US products, US marketing and US culture: glamour, adoration of the rich-and-beautiful and greed. We already had some weaknesses in these areas and in most regions the church, the Catholic Church, went along with the program... in Colombia and Guatemala they still bless the Death Squads. Latin America continues to be the only region where the US maintains a trade surplus. Capitalism creates crisis. Corruption. Free trade neoliberalism has been an orgy of privatizations and foreign investments. Selling off the national treasures to giant corporations kept our economies going for a few years, but now the debts are pilling up and the promised jobs don’t exist. Most of the people in Latin America no longer believe that US-IMF-World Bank policies can work. More ominous for the US is that people are rejecting liberal (representative) democratic politics and even US culture, materialism and hype.

Now we have Bolivar, Chavez, the Amayra, the Andes, Piqueteros, Augusto César Sandino, Emiliano Zapata and we still have Che... always Che.
(Y tambien tenemos: José Carlos Mariátegui, Camilo Torres Restrepo, Manuel Vázquez Castaño, Manuel Pérez Martinez, Jacobo Arenas, Farabundo Martí, Carlos Fonseca Amador)

Each of these names represents tens of millions of people who won’t listen anymore to the foreign bankers, the White House or the Miami-based elite of Latin America. We make our own future. As a Bolivian urbanized peasant said during the recent overthrow of President Goni Lozado “We just want to move from slavery to poverty.

CMAQ: Vie associative


Quebec City collective: no longer exist.

Get involved !

 

Ceci est un média alternatif de publication ouverte. Le collectif CMAQ, qui gère la validation des contributions sur le Indymedia-Québec, n'endosse aucunement les propos et ne juge pas de la véracité des informations. Ce sont les commentaires des Internautes, comme vous, qui servent à évaluer la qualité de l'information. Nous avons néanmoins une Politique éditoriale , qui essentiellement demande que les contributions portent sur une question d'émancipation et ne proviennent pas de médias commerciaux.

This is an alternative media using open publishing. The CMAQ collective, who validates the posts submitted on the Indymedia-Quebec, does not endorse in any way the opinions and statements and does not judge if the information is correct or true. The quality of the information is evaluated by the comments from Internet surfers, like yourself. We nonetheless have an Editorial Policy , which essentially requires that posts be related to questions of emancipation and does not come from a commercial media.
