The EZLN just want the Mexican Constitution to be equally implemented for every single citizen and that seems to me something formidable. Besides I think this is a reachable goal. They are obtaining more influence among ordinary folk because people know they are not defending armed struggle. What they are putting on is hyperdemocratic, much more democratic than what is currently going on in the country. To generate changes without spilling blood is an exceptional matter and this is happening at the same time that tonnes of corruption are appearing in the Mexican government.
Theses are two complementary things in order to generate changes.
I think it is getting ready because the country is changing. Besides the unpopularity that PRI is harvesting is something evident. He is a very intelligent chap with his feet on the ground. Therefore I sent them a message excusing my absence. Sometimes one arrives with the best of the intentions and then they get spoiled because of the pressure.
