The Grapes of wrath in the popular revolt Unidos


Amid the almost complete silence of the local press, thousands and thousands of Americans, throughout the Union, took to the streets to express their support for the protest outside the Capitol of Wisconsin, where 70,000 people gathered yesterday on the twelfth day of action to combat, to claim against an unpopular and anti-union laws that drive Republicans. Norbert Emmerich, BA in International Relations, Doctor of Political Science, and above all friend, has some backstage than anyone has.


In 1939 John Steinbeck wrote "The Grapes of Wrath, a novel that recounts the hardships and heroism of American workers in the Great Depression. The book was banned, censored and burned while the author was persecuted and harassed.

is an optimistic book, which recovers the value of the working class at its worst: "... and in the eyes of people reflects the failure, and in the eyes of the hungry is a growing wrath. In the souls of the people the grapes of wrath are filling and become heavy, taking weight, ready for harvest. "

In this new crisis, 80 years after that, the American working class pays the consequences of the party that bankers never stopped celebrating. A time to pay the costs, the newly elected Republican governor of Wisconsin, Scott Walker, proposed a bill in the public sector pension void, raises the cost of health insurance, union dues automatically removes and limits the right of collective bargaining wage only to the point.

Walker took office in January 2011 as a representative from the GOP moderate. His first measure was a tax amnesty to multinational companies and state that cost the treasury $ 170 million. To reduce a budget deficit of $ 130 million in the fiscal year ending June 30, tries to paralyze the activity of public sector unions as part of a nationwide anti-union offensive. American law delegates to each state the state labor market regulations.

The governor notified National Guard to to stay alert by taking measures that would be both employees of state government, county and municipal governments. Harold Meyer, Washington Post columnist, said, "Now that the governor of Wisconsin has issued his marching orders to the Guard, we can discern a new pattern of repressive solidarity from the pharaoh of the Middle East to the pharaoh of the Middle West."

On Monday 14 February 30 000 workers almost immediately halted activities and almost took the Capitol (Congress) government in Madison, capital of the State of Wisconsin. On Tuesday 15, hundreds of demonstrators marched through the city. teachers, health workers, maintenance workers, prison employees, nurses, supported by private sector workers were concentrated then in the center of the capital, surrounded the capitol for two days and thousands of them entered the room shouting: "Freedom , democracy, trade unions. " Students and teachers suspended their classes at state universities in protest against the initiative . also teachers of public schools reported mass "sick" and joined the protests, forcing the closure of public schools not only in the capital but also in cities across the state. High school students and child joined protest marches and shouting "we support our teachers, we support public education." Upon reaching the Capitol Square were greeted by thousands of students.

Some of the banners read "Hosni / Walker," referring to the Egyptian revolution. Others said: "This is our Tahrir square," or "if Egypt can obtain democracy why not Wisconsin?".

On Friday, 18 teachers across the state went on strike indefinitely. The local team of packers Green Bay, recent winner of the Super Bowl, issued a statement expressing support for the protests. 80 000 people marched to the Capitol in Madison on Saturday 19 and during this weekend's protest moved to the nearby city of Milwaukee.

Given the size of the mobilization, the initiative could not be handled by the state Senate. Democratic Caucus left the meeting without a quorum, undertaking a series of trips around the country, which gives them a legal license to miss sessions.

quite rightly John Nichols, of the popular magazine The Nation warned the measures the governor could have national implications, "If the Governor Walker manages to knock the collective bargaining rights the American Federation of Employees of State, County and Municipal Employees (AFSCME), which was founded in Wisconsin in the 1930 (which was the first public employee union in the country to secure the right to collective bargaining in 1959), if it ends with the Council of the Wisconsin Education Association (WEAC), one of the unions stronger and more effective teachers in the country, then we will see how it spreads across America. "

Initiatives similar to those of Wisconsin are discussed in Ohio, Indiana and Tennessee. But also in states ruled by Democrats such as New York and California. The protests have already spread to Indiana, Ohio, Minnesota, Michigan and Pennsylvania.

About 10 000 workers marched on the Capitol in Columbus, Ohio's capital, on February 23 against the attempt by Republican Gov. John Kasich of striking unions. In Indiana the Democratic caucus also was absent from the meeting where the issue should be addressed. In 14 states of the country held rallies and vigils in support of the struggle of workers in Wisconsin.

governments seek to reduce their budget deficits that have been eroded by the economic crisis and bailout packages in Wall Street. So move the costs to public sector workers. In the conflicts we see today in Wisconsin and Ohio there is a similar background. It is the great recession of 2008 that entered its thirty-seventh month without signs of stopping.

For their part, national unions are providing resources and personnel to support strikes in state sections, providing for the extension of the conflict in time and space.

Some

Analysts say that is no exaggeration to compare the situation in Egypt with the protest process in the United States, a process of backward third world, with 30 years of dictatorship. The union and student activists who lead the two processes do not seem to understand well: Saladin Muhammad Nusair engineer held up a banner in Tahrir Square , already famous among the protesters in Madison, saying, "Egypt supports the workers in Wisconsin - a world, a pain. " In Wisconsin, flags flying like they say: "From Egypt to Wisconsin we got up, Gov. Walker, our Mubarak."

What is at stake in Wisconsin, As in the Arab world is much more than a matter of local labor. It is likely that the U.S. labor movement has decided to end the war against the working class began three decades ago under President Ronald Reagan and supported since then by Republican and Democratic presidents the White House. The governor Walker seems to be aware of the importance of this situation when he said in a telephone interview that is in the same situation faced by Ronald Reagan on the occasion of the air controllers' strike of 1982. At that time the defeat and dismissal of the drivers remained closed U.S. airspace for weeks became a neoliberal ideology, which was just an ideological and a topic of debate in academia, in a government program worldwide.

As stated by Noam Chomsky, "maybe it's the beginning of what we really need in the United States, a rising democracy," exactly what happens in the Arab world.

Erythromycin How Does It Work

Danza macabra de cinismo


looting policy imposed by United States and its NATO allies in the Middle East into crisis. This inevitably broke the high cost of cereals, whose effects are felt most acutely in developing countries Arab where despite its huge oil resources, water scarcity, desert areas and widespread poverty of the people contrasted with the huge oil resources that have privileged sectors.

While food prices are tripled, the real estate wealth and treasures of the aristocratic minority amounting to trillions of dollars.

Arab world, culture and belief predominantly Muslim, has been further humiliated by the imposition of blood and fire of a State was unable to meet basic obligations that originated, from the existing colonial order until the end World War II, under which the victorious powers created the United Nations and imposed trade and global economy.

Thanks to the treachery of Sadat at Camp David on Palestinian Arab state could not exist, despite the agreements of November 1947 UN, and Israel became a nuclear power strong ally to the United States and NATO.

Military Industrial Complex United States supplied tens of billions of dollars each year to Israel and Arab states themselves subdued and humiliated by it.

The genie is out of the bottle and NATO do not know how to control it.

They'll try to get the most out of the unfortunate events Libya. Nobody would be able to know right now what is happening there. All figures and versions, even the most improbable, have been disclosed by the rule through the media, causing chaos and misinformation.

is clear that in Libya developed a civil war. Why and how it broke? Who will suffer? Reuters, echoing the approach of a well-known Japanese bank, Nomura, said oil prices could exceed any limits:

"'If Libya and Algeria suspended oil production, prices could reach a peak above $ 220 a barrel and OPEC spare capacity would be reduced to 2.1 million barrels per day, similar to levels seen during the Gulf War and when the values \u200b\u200btouched $ 147 in 2008 ', the bank said in a note. "

Who would pay that price today? What are the consequences in the midst of food crisis?

main leaders of NATO are exalted. British Prime Minister, David Cameron, ANSA reported, "... admitted in a speech in Kuwait that Western countries were wrong to support non-democratic governments in the Arab world. "He should be commended for the candor.

His French counterpart Nicolas Sarkozy said: "The long brutal and bloody repression of Libyan civilians is disgusting."

Italian Foreign Minister Franco Frattini said "'credible' the number of people dead in Tripoli [...] 'tragic figure will be a bloodbath'."

Hillary Clinton: "... the 'bloodbath' is' \u200b\u200bcompletely unacceptable 'and' must stop '... "

Ban Ki-moon spoke "' It is absolutely unacceptable to use violence in the country '. "

" ...' the Security Council will act on a decision by the international community '. "

"' E stamos considering a range of options. " "

What Ban Ki-moon hopes that Obama really is the last word.

The U.S. president spoke on Wednesday afternoon and said that the Secretary of State for Europe would come to agree with its NATO allies to take action. In his face he appreciated the opportunity to deal with Senator right-wing Republican John McCain, Senator pro Israeli Connecticut, Joseph Lieberman and leaders Tea Party, to secure his nomination by the Democratic Party.

massive media empire have prepared the ground for action. Nothing strange would military intervention in Libya, which also guarantee to Europe nearly two million barrels of light oil, if not before events occur that put an end to the head or the life of Gaddafi.

However, the role of Obama is quite complicated. What will be the world's reaction If Arab and Muslim blood spilled there in abundance for this adventure? "He stops a NATO intervention in Libya, the revolutionary wave that began in Egypt?

In Iraq the innocent blood spilled over one million Arab citizens, when the country was invaded under false pretenses. Mission accomplished! proclaimed George W. Bush.

Nobody in the world will never agree with the death of unarmed civilians in Libya or elsewhere. And I wonder: Does the United States and NATO that principle to the unarmed civilians Yankee drones and soldiers of that organization killed every day in Afghanistan and Pakistan?

is a macabre dance of cynicism.

Yasky: paro por la impunidad


At other times, a strike by workers of the prison to start their leader put behind bars by a government that oppressed and violated union rights episode had been a much more epic and the working class struggle in Argentina. Today, this scenario is turned upside down and reaches almost to the limits of absurdity as the character in question is not only suspected of being the mastermind of a criminal act that took the life of a young man fighting against outsourcing but also symbolically represents a breed of union leaders who prohijó the period of savage neoliberalism in the nineties. In this case, it is a leader who went beyond the bounds of even Vandor, whose substance was the connivance of union leaders with business groups. José Pedraza
exponent becomes emblematic of an experience that is further away from the class interests it represents, as he assumes the status of employer becomes exploited and railway workers who submits to the rules unworthy of outsourcing. This is a new condition that the union leader is both employer and assumes a dual identity, in which the claim of representing railroad workers condition pattern contrasts his living in the affluent neighborhood of Puerto Madero and has income levels, in fact, put it as part of the class they belong to big business around the world.
That's why this strike is anachronistic and becomes a tool of impunity for trying to extort justice, pressing on political power and thus achieve interference that replenished the circle of impunity that once protected those responsible for acts of violence against workers. Most railway workers know what to do justice for the kid Mariano Ferreyra is to begin to do justice to all those workers who have first-hand the deplorable conditions imposed by those who forgot, far away and long ago, what is the commitment to class , and from a chair employers intend to continue playing.
This is a turning point: if you win this tug of war and justice prevails, there will surely be a before and after for all trade union movement.

Images Bloating Under Ribcage

Juicios: heroinas cotidianas


before their oppressors, sitting over there in the room of trials in the Federal Court of Mendoza, is desarrollando – escribiendo también – por las voces altivas, serenas, firmes, de las víctimas – mujeres y hombres – un capítulo actual y menduco de la larga historia universal de la dignidad humana. Como aquello del coraje civil, que también hemos subrayado, este heroísmo cotidiano conmueve, jornada a jornada, a los oyentes de testimonios del horror padecido en las mazmorras de los genocidas.

Es el heroísmo del espíritu, del alma, y también del cuerpo mancillado, ahora ahí auto enaltecido – el heroísmo – por un relato que transita desde la memoria a las profundidades del infierno para resurgir en la exigencia de justicia, sin hints of revenge, which would debase the human dignity because of what it is pointing, without bending, the other side of the human condition: the side of the heart was clouded.

is not the voice of women increased above those of men, but it is a gender distinction that rises in this recall dramatic moments of their lives. What was Sylvia Ontiveros, Rosa Gomez, Isabel De Marinis, Allegrini Lucy, Light and her mother Luz Faingold Casanave. And the week before last, Georgina Vucetich.

Single, without hesitation, Georgina began the story of the murder of her husband, former union leader then of workers Hector Brizuela wine, simultaneously to the murder of his partner Antonio García, secretary general of the labor sector. The witness stated that step by step from that moment was their tragedy, their requests, pleas and demands to give him news of the whereabouts of her husband. They were accompanied by violence pure evasive verbal humiliation, like the one that answered Commissioner Maipú to the requirement Georgina ... "and that if it was a comunacho want." In fact, Brizuela and Garcia both belonged to the Communist Party and were known widely as such. But George did not give truce and neither was counting had been somewhat more than 10 times, with the then chief of police of the Province, the vice commodore Santuccione, until he grew tired of delays and promises and had no choice but to manifest a "milico you're a bastard. .. " Courage, heroism or just open veins, those of which speak of the martyrdom of the American people forever.

And Light Faingold, who made his testimony in Federal Court based in Mendoza, last week I reiterated to the Council of the Magistracy, in Buenos Aires, to reiterate his complaint against ex-judge Luis Miret. Having it there in front this time, Luz reiterated the concepts of the first version. The defendant, had initially disqualifying attitudes toward light, but this deepened his testimony firmly and gradually it was slammed to break him morally, ending the session with Miret what it is: a human wreck.

between victims and perpetrators are strict dividing lines: there is no forgetting or pardon, nor reconciliation, on the one hand, the other sinks in the mire of barbarism. RAMON
