Ernesto C Report post Posted June 19, 2010 Very valuable info Scotty, I guess you can say that the good news about this report is the we (the menmbers of this site) do no hunt on Sinaloa and Michoacan? The ones that order the attack against the federales in Michoacan are already in prison Can you post a report about Afganistan and Iraq including also our american soldiers? Mexico is in fact in a deep s..... Finally there was one with big b.... and fight the drug cartels. Or maybe he should never fight them that way there will be no such attacks? Is not going to be easy for Mexico and guess what? IS GOING TO GET WORSE! so be ready cause you will be posting a lot. Ernesto C Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Of the 22 nations surveyed in the poll, public opinion of the United States declined only in Mexico according to the Pew Poll of Global Attitudes. Only 49% of Mexicans expressed a positive view of our neighbor to the North, compared to 57% last year. The major decline in the general opinion of the United States in Mexico was due, in part, to the bad feelings caused by the Arizona migration law. The Arizona law requires the police to confirm the immigration status of whomever they suspect is illegally in the country and every criminal illegal immigrant. The favorable opinion of the United States fell from 69% to 56% in 2009, but there are big differences in the polls before and after Arizona approved the measure on the 23rd of April. In a poll taken between the 14th and 20th of April, 62% of those questioned had a positive view of the United States, compared to 44% of those questioned between the 1st and the 6th of May, according to the study. Upon being questioned about the administration of the respective Presidents, 54% disapproved of President Barack Obama and some 43% disapproved of President Felipe Calderon while 75% disapproved of Governor Jan Brewer. Before the approval of the law (SB1070), 47% of Mexicans had confidence in the international leadership of Barack Obama, but now only 36% have that confidence. In other Latin American countries there is little confidence in Barack Obama. In Argentina there is barely 10% approval because of Iraq and 11% approval because of the situation in Afghanistan. In Brazil 48% disapprove of his (Obama’s) policies in Iraq and 43% disapprove of his policies in Afghanistan. The United States enjoys the best opinion in other Latin American countries like Brazil (62%), and in Argentina where 42% approve and 42% disapprove of the United States. Brazil is the country with the most citizens worried about climate change (58%) and is one of the few countries content with its economic situation (62%). The other countries happy with their economy are China (91%), India (57%) and Poland (53%). The results of this poll were taken telephonically from people in 22 nations of which only Argentina, Brazil and Mexico were Latin American nations. The margin of error is plus or minus 4 percentage points. The Pew Center has taken opinion polls about a variety of issues since 2001 over the entire planet. http://www.debate.com.mx/eldebate/Articulo...&IdCat=6087 ——————– Cambio de Michoacan (Morelia, Michoacán) 6-17-10 Federales ambushed in Michoacán Two henchmen who participated in an ambush of federal policemen in Michoacan have been detained.

Last night in a 10 minute radio and television address to the nation, Calderón expressed concern over the growing number of executions but will maintain his strategy without backing off. “I know there is worry among all Mexicans about the violent acts, there is hurt and indignation, particularly about the loss of innocent life, for this reason, we will not spare any forces or any resource in the battle against organized crime that continues to result in the loss of the lives of innocents,” said Calderón. He continued that there is a struggle against criminal groups that results in executions and confrontations with federal authorities. “As I told you from the first day, this is a struggle that will cost time, resources, and disgracefully, human lives and unfortunately, the loss of brave policemen, soldiers and sailors who sacrificed their lives for the safety of all Mexicans”, he said. ——————– El Debate (Sinaloa) 6-16-10 No arrests and no suspects Mazatlan – “No clues, no arrests and no suspects in the massacre of 28 inmates at the Mazatlan prison”, says the State Attorney General’s Office.

He said that he entered into an arroyo to cross (into the USA) when four subjects dressed in dark clothing accosted him, hit him in the head and took 300 dollars. The migrant said he was begging them to let him go when he heard two shots wounding him in the left arm and the right leg. With two wounds, he walked to a nearby house and asked for help where he was transported to General Hospital. Municipal Police took a report and turned it over to The Public Ministry. —– More than 3 million children work in Mexico Mexico, D.F. – There are more than 3 million child laborers in Mexico and 200,000 of them work in (The State of) Chiapas, according to Victoria Cruz Lopez, Technical Assistant to the Program for the Eradication of Child Labor in Mexico (IPEC). During a workshop in this city concerning the exploitation of child labor, an official of The International Organization of Labor declared that there is cause to worry in Mexico and in the world over these statistics. The workshop has the objective to get to the bottom of the child labor problem and to address it problematically. Regardless of the number of working children, it is important to confront this problem and to be concerned about this type of situation. “For this reason, the states, labor organizations, the government and other sectors must take action to confront the problem of child labor,” states Victoria Cruz Lopez, who is from Costa Rica ——————– -end of report- Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
