Mexico's Democracy is Abusing Human Rights
In this release...
In recent months, the
media has widely reported on the continuous human rights
violations committed by members of the Mexican military.
While news of these atrocities only recently surfaced on
major news stations, Mexican authorities, in fact, have been
struggling with human rights abuses since 2007 when these
pivotal events first started to come to light.
This
analysis was prepared by Isida Tushe, Guest Scholar for the
Council on Hemispheric Affairs.

Stephen Lendman's recent
article, "CELAC: A Washington-Controlled OAS
Alternative?"
Veteran Chicago sage Lendman can
be caught over his blog http://sjlendman.blogspot.com/ as well
as on his half hour radio program over at The Progressive
Radio News Network (http://www.progressiveradionetwork.com/the-progressive-news-hour)
on Thursday 10 AM CT, which also is carried over to the
same station on Saturday and Sunday at 12 PM CT. Although
his competence covers the entire international affairs'
spectrum, his coverage of Latin American themes is
particularly first class. This can be seen, in his analysis
of the founding of CELAC, which has been seen by
Venezuela’s Hugo Chavez as being a possible replacement of
the OAS, the region’s existing regional body.
Although
Lendman’s analysis of CELAC may be open to challenge by
some, no one has written a more trenchant investigation of
the new regional body’s possible evolution contemporary
role. One neglects his material only under the greatest of
peril.
