Economic Nationalism Has Re-Emerged in Mexico

by Alberto Vizcarra and Jesús Martínez

The renewed effort to privatize Mexico’s energy sector and its national oil company has awakened a strong nationalist reaction by diverse political forces, labor organizations, and within the population in general. These sectors reject President Fox’s drive to deregulate the national electricity market, which would open the door to looting by multinational energy pirates.

by Jeffrey Steinberg

The neo-conservative claim trumpeted throughout U.S. media on Nov. 14—that links between Saddam Hussein and Al-Qaeda had been “conclusively proven” by a memo from Undersecretary of Defense Douglas Feith to the Senate Intelligence Committee—boomeranged, amid the exposure of what appear to be dirty tricks to steal sensitive documents from opponents of Dick Cheney and the neo-conservatives.

Corrections

In last week’s issue, EIR misspelled the name of former Michigan State Rep. LaMar Lemmons, in our interview with him on p. 56. Mr. Lemmons hosted Lyndon LaRouche’s Presidential campaign meeting in Detroit on Nov. 20, as we report in this week’s Feature.

In “The Pagan Worship of Isaac Newton,” an editorial error in the picture caption on p. 17 characterized Paolo Sarpi as having promoted the cult of Newton. Mr. LaRouche’s article refers to the followers of the Venetian Antonio Conti as having played this role; Sarpi’s dirty work was done in the previous century.
