695Pour compléter un précédent Ouverture libre du 22 septembre 2010, un texte de John Ross, sur CounterPunch, du 21 septembre 2010, dont le titre est significatif : “Ne cherchez pas, elle a déjà commencé, – la prochaine révolution mexicaine...” Ross estime que la période commencée le 15 septembre et allant jusqu’au 20 novembre pourrait être ce qu’on nomme une “fenêtre d’opportunité” d’un tel mouvement. Bien entendu, la “narco-guérilla”, selon l’entendement de la récente déclaration d’Hillary Clinton, jouerait un rôle fondamental dans l’insurrection… (Curieusement, ou de façon révélatrice, l’évaluation d’une insurrection d’Hillary Clinton avait été contredite par Obama, qui ne juge pas la situation aussi grave. Il s’agit d’une divergence d’opinion ou bien d’une mesure d’urgence de la Maison-Blanche pour tenter d’apaiser la colère de gouvernement Calderon devant l’évaluation d’Hillary. Dans le deuxième cas, rien de rassurant.)
«As the 100th anniversary of the Mexican revolution steams into sight, U.S. and Mexican security agencies are closely monitoring this distant neighbor nation for red lights that could signal renewed rebellion. The most treacherous stretch for those keeping tabs on subversion south of the border is between September 15th the recently celebrated bicentennial commemorating the struggle for Mexico's independence from Spain, and November 20th, the day back in 1910 that the liberal Francisco Madero called upon his compatriots to take the plazas of their cities and towns and rise up against the Diaz government. […]
»Given the qualitative leap in violence, Edgardo Buscaglia, a keen analyst of drug policy at the prestigious Autonomous Technological Institute of Mexico now describes Calderon's war as a “narco-insurgency” - a descriptive recently endorsed by U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton. Daily events reported in the nation's press lend graphic substance to the terminology.»
L’article de Rosse est une minutieuse description des événements, du climat d’insurrection, de l’extraordinaire imbroglio des organisations, politiques et criminelles (cartels de la drogue), des actions de terrorisme et d’insurrection, des territoires plus ou moins soustraits au contrôle et à la légitimité du gouvernement central, etc. Avec, donc, ces prochaines semaines qui, selon Ross, pourraient être décisives, constituant alors la dramatisation brutale d’une crise majeure sur le frontière US.
«50,000 of the Mexican Army's 140,000 troops and large detachments of Naval Marines are currently in the field against the narco-insurrectionists. With an eye to the eventual “symbiosis” of the drug gangs with armed guerrilla movements, the U.S. North Command which is responsible for keeping the North American mainland free of terrorists and regards Mexico as its southern security perimeter recently sent counter-insurgency trainers here to assess threats - their visit was confirmed at a Washington D.C. press conference July 21st by Under-secretary of Defense William Wechsler.
»Meanwhile, the military is setting up new advance bases in regions where there have been recent guerrilla sightings such as the Sierra Gorda, strategically located at the confluence of Queretero, Guanajuato, and San Luis Potosi states.
»Leftists who have been awaiting a more “political” uprising in 2010 are not convinced by Buscaglia's nomenclature. A real revolution must be waged along ideological and class lines which the narco-insurrection has yet to manifest. Nonetheless, given the neo-liberal mindset of a globalized world in which class dynamics are reduced to market domination, the on-going narco-insurrection may well be the best new Mexican revolution this beleaguered nation is going to get.»
