A terrible follow-up on Corrientes.

The Gendarmería attacked people savagely. There are three or five dead persons (one of them a woman with a 20 week pregnancy), tens of wounded. People in Corrientes are still resisting. A good beginning for the NYT's "mild conservative' De La Rúa, the "progressives" of FREPASO, and the 'peronists' who have all sided with the government against people who want to be paid their wages after more than half a year of delays and non-payment. Teresa Ter-Minassian, the high IMF official in charge of strangleholding Argentina is, at the same time, ''visiting'' us. Why not take her to a meeting in Corrientes, over the Bridge of the Battle.

I will enlarge tomorrow, it is two o'clock in the morning now, and have just finished a long and hard day of work and political militancy.
