A-Infos (en) Position of the Revolutionary Anarchist Alliance on the events of December 1 (ca, fr) [machine translation]

Social organizations ---- Media ---- At the working class in general ---- December 1, 2012 
took place the ceremony of bourgeois democracy, which officially concluded the bloody 
administration of Felipe Calderón, which transmits the presidential office and the 
criminal Enrique Peña Nieto. In reality it is the continuity of a political and economic 
model predator will continue to degrade the living conditions of the working class, to 
continue to ensure the interests of big capital. The ceremony took place in the midst of 
excessive deployment of security forces, including a collaboration with intelligence 
agencies of the State Presidential Major with the Federal Preventive Police and various 
corporate security in the capital.

Actions that occurred in the first place, such as the blatant aggression against the 
surrounding community by violating its transition space and daily activities, deriving 
from the blockaded security and police roadblocks encountered early explicit rejection 
neighborhood as well as large sections of society. excessive deployment of security forces 
that we understand as a clear provocation to the federal government in the direction of 
the incoming general population to serve from its beginning how it will spread 
uncertainty, terror and violence.

This is the framework in which thousands of people and many social organizations from 
across the country gathered near the Legislative Palace of San Lazaro to protest against 
the act of possession of Enrique Peña Nieto. The police attacks were not made to wait by 
throwing tear gas and rubber bullets aimed directly at demonstrators, causing severe and 
irreversible damage to the companions. these attacks increased the tension, rage, 
helplessness and widespread discontent. It was before the attacks that social sectors have 
begun to use self-defense. These tactics of self-defense, which responded to the police 
assault with its use of disproportionate force, as the actions of sabotage that took 
place, were not premeditated at any time by anarchists or any other organization. These 
actions testify to the frustration of various sectors to address the despair that prevails 
in the working class sees its conditions constantly impoverished.

We recognize the actions of sabotage and direct confrontation against the police as 
legitimate means of defense developed during the event spontaneously. They were a class 
used by all organizations convened and also deployed by people who usually passes by the 
place, also by the desperate condition of existence that grow in agony. We note that the 
statements of the Government of the Federal District who openly accuse the anarchist 
movement in general and organizations in particular do not correspond to the way in which 
the incident occurred. This is clearly a strategy to sow disorganization, the 
disintegration of the social movement and discontent in descent visible, and another side 
to criminalize the anarchist movement.

The current situation is that we are going through this every time increasing tensions and 
class antagonisms. The general crisis of capital that bases its costs on the proletariat, 
met rejection demonstrations around the world. The national scene characterized by an 
increase in signs of state violence and organized crime, the denial of the rights granted 
by the bourgeois democracy in his speech, tends to show ever more hostile to working 
families. The chess game of power continues to move to continue to perpetuate the 
privileges of economic elites. The recent signing of the "Pact To Mexico" by the minions 
of power is a clear demonstration that the incoming administration has positioned itself 
to lead to its ultimate consequences the current neo-liberal model. This "pact" trace the 
structural reforms that will plunge the proletariat into a state of total vulnerability.

The return of the PRI executive with Peña Nieto was the head movement required to 
profondisation structural reforms. The criminal history of the current holder of the 
executive with the slaughter he ordered San Salvador Atenco, the growing wave of femicide, 
the role of organized crime in the state he governed, as well as documented cases of 
corruption and enrichment of his cabinet members (just mention Osorio Chong incumbent 
government, which also allowed the Zetas to act with impunity when he was governor of the 
State of Hidalgo) are clear signs that the administration will use the most harmful use to 
carry out his project of death. In this plan are also alarming initiatives to reform the 
law of public safety who claim assign a greater ability for the State to liquidate the 
slightest signs of political opposition whatsoever. Which we interpret as a clear 
provocation against society in general and the social movement and anarchist groups in 
particular. This question must be considered with great caution in order to be prepared to 
face the onslaught of killer state that clearly shows. Responsible actions and consequent 
active sectors of the proletariat must point to the deployment tactics and strategy that 
will allow us to achieve an immediate victory as the fall of the PRI regime with all its 
political allies PAN and the PRD.

Anarchism as a revolutionary theory and practice that arises in a specific historical 
context of the development of the class struggle takes the genuine interests of the 
proletariat to the emancipation of capital and its dictatorship generalized in all aspects 
of the existence. We are not surprised that large sections of the population identify with 
its general principles. The state and the bourgeois press with its ideological apparatus 
claim to reduce anarchism only widespread disorder, presenting such a level of abstraction 
and ambiguity they delegitimize what it is: a revolutionary theory with authentic 
political principles and a well-defined strategy and tactics concrete.

So they are in the anarchist movement the ideal scapegoat, which can be attributed the 
origin of insurgent episodes, underestimating and reducing protests by the working class 
in simple acts of vandalism coming from isolated groups. In the final instance it is the 
concrete conditions of exploitation and violence that keep the working class, those who 
are at the bottom of the first actions taken December.

The Anarchist Revolutionary Alliance condemns the disproportionate use of force state, 
ranging from arbitrary detention of more than a hundred protesters up to apprehend people 
who were just passing by there, without questioning the use of violence.

We express our total rejection of operation deployed by the government in the capital, 
with the main responsibility, the criminal Ebard Marcelo, who in his speech continues to 
appeal to fairness and respect for human rights.

We note that the use of violence against the people's legitimate protests was 
characterized by indiscriminate parties PRI, PAN and PRD, which represent the current 
panorama, something of great concern to organizations that provide a real opposition.

So even as we expose organizations Coordination Student Anarchist, Black Block México and 
The Call of Freedom (all three members of the Revolutionary Anarchist Alliance) and the 
Anarchist Black Cross are political groups for their claims embrace the theory and 
practice anarchists in their entirety, ie until each student struggles, dissemination and 
propaganda and solidarity with the prisoners, they provide criticism and struggle 
anarchists, and this to the revolutionary struggle in general and this goes beyond the 
current situation or event day.

The anarchist movement organized and serious in Mexico, is a project embryonic through 
some groups and individuals who claim to be such, have met in this posture tactics and 
policy proposals to transform reality into force. Undoubtedly, the anarchist movement as 
such, even if it grows, does not have the ability to articulate, organize an event or 
conspire on the scale of 1 December and we say again that it was the Mexican proletariat 
in a legitimate exercise of its self-defense vigorously expressed his dissatisfaction with 
the return of the PRI and what it represents.

We demand:

1. The immediate and unconditional release of prisoners.

2. The cessation of persecution against the companion José Uriel Sandoval Diaz, student 
UACM which is currently at the General Hospital after losing his eye caused by a rubber 
bullet and the police do not stop to acknowledge the threat of detention. So even we 
demand compensation for immediate and future costs.

3. Stopping the manufacture of fixtures against anarchist groups now an activist, as well 
as persecution and demonizing media that is of anarchism and its supporters in general.

We make responsible and denounce the Federal Government and that of the capital for any 
attempt to possess whatever, preliminary investigation, keeping records or any other legal 
action against individuals or groups and anarchists recognize these efforts as political 
revenge to use us as scapegoats.

Daily violence to which we are subject under the dictatorship of Capital and its defense 
organ of state (which reduces our conditions of misery and decay, persecuting the 
political opposition with the vilest acts that distinguish the device State: torture, 
imprisonment, disappearances, etc..) is in no way comparable to the signs of rage and 
frustration sectors aware of the proletariat as a tactic deployed. We say from this point, 
the anarchists as endogenous entity proletariat we embrace and claim events worthy of 
people's discontent, helping to ensure that they grow qualitatively.

For anarchy.
For the total emancipation of the proletariat.
