NEW Communique from the Clandestine Indigenous Revolutionary Committee – General Command of the EZLN - 28 Apr 2011
COMMUNIQUÉ BY THE CLANDESTINE INDIGENOUS REVOLUTIONARY COMMITTEE – GENERAL COMMAND OF THE ZAPATISTA ARMY OF NATIONAL LIBERATION.
MEXICO.
APRIL 2011.
“An inhabitant of Los Pinos beholds an atrocious crime,
He shrugs it off for a year,
Changes the position of the furnishings that
Play at being ministers and public officials
And takes refuge in a guilty silence,
The pariah, in his urge to keep
The saddle he mounts.
¿What should we give him, Daré?
And our child doctor of souls prescribes:
A corset of dignity that straightens the back,
Drops of truth for the eyes,
Pills of honesty (but may he not put them in his pockets),
Injections of dignity that money does not buy
And absolute rest for his corrupt habits.
Isolate him, for his illness is contagious”.
Juan Carlos Mijangos Noh.
(Fragment of “49 Globos,”
in memory of the 49 children dead at the ABC Nursery in Hermosillo, Sonora).

THE PSYCHOTIC MILITARY CAMPAIGN BY FELIPE CALDERON HINOJOSA, WHO HAS TURNED THE STRUGGLE AGAINST CRIME INTO A TOTALITARIAN ARGUMENT TO DELIBERATELY GENERALIZE FEAR IN THE WHOLE COUNTRY, IS CONFRONTED NOW WITH THE DIGNITY OF THE ORGANIZED VOICES OF RELATIVES OF THE VICTIMS OF THIS WAR.
THESE VOICES, WHICH ARISE FROM DIFFERENT CORNERS OF OUR COUNTRY, INVITE US TO MOBILIZE AND DEMONSTRATE TO STOP THE ORGANIZED AND UNORGANIZED MADNESS THAT IS CLAIMING INNOCENT LIVES, DOUBLY MURDERED WHEN GOVERNMENT NAIVETÉ CATEGORIZES THEM AS HIRED MURDERERS OR COLLATERAL VICTIMS.
RESPONDING TO THIS CALL, WHICH IS BORN OF THE PAIN OF OUR COMPAÑERO AND POET JAVIER SICILIA, AMONG OTHERS, THE EZLN COMMUNICATES:

UPON ARIVING AT THE PLAZA A MESSAGE FROM THE EZLN WILL BE READ, AND AFTER THAT THE ZAPATISTAS WILL RETURN TO THEIR COMMUNITIES.
