Unknown persons are shooting at people from APPO to make them react
violently and to provide a justification to send in the PFP against
them. PFP means Policia Federal Preventiva (Federal Preventive
Police) but don't let the name fool you, it's the army.
The army is about to enter Oaxaca. It will happen any minute now. This
is really sad.
URGENT SOLIDARITY CALL FOR OAXACA

URGENT SOLIDARITY CALL FOR OAXACA
At the federal level in Mexico, the current discourse signals an
imminent arrival of Federal Police Forces in Oaxaca. The feds claim
that, if federal forces are sent to Oaxaca, they will only maintain a
presence on the outskirts of the city, to "ensure civilian safety."
However, it is widely known that local PRI-sympathizing groups can be
mobilized to provoke a confrontation with the sectors of civil society
partiapting in the popular movement, which would justify the entrance
of the federal police.
If the federal police enter Oaxaca, it will be a blood bath...
Please call or send faxes and emails to President Fox and to Secretary
of Interior Affairs, Carlos Abascal, demanding the immediate
withdrawal of threats to send police forces into Oaxaca, and the
immediate resignation of Oaxacan governor, Ulises Ruiz Ortiz. Write in
Spanish. Write in English. Just write, or call, or both.
Get down to your local Mexican consulate or embassy. Make a lot of
noise. Spend the night out front if you have to.
