aujourd’hui<\/a> de cette mont\u00e9e de la tension :<\/p>\n<\/p>\n\t\u00ab The social tensions underlying the mass protests in support of Lopez Obrador and demanding a full recount are on the rise. A year of bitter struggles by miners, metal workers, teachers and public employees underscores the highly volatile social and political situation in the country.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p>\n\t\u00bb There are indications that the current state of affairs will not be tolerated for much longer. An editorial published on August 7 in Reforma, a conservative Mexico City daily that supports the PAN and Calderon, describes Lopez Obrador as a skilled politician who is taking advantage of a power vacuum resulting from the United States’ preocupation with crises in the Middle East, Venezuela, Afghanistan and North Korea that prevents Washington from intervening more aggressively in the Mexican election dispute on the side of the PAN. Contributing to the power vacuum, according to the newspaper, is the Mexican army’s reluctance to get involved in what it considers a purely political dispute. The editorial notes that several days ago, the armed forces rejected feelers from President Fox to step in to restore order.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p>\n\t\u00bb The article decries the impunity with which the rallies and marches are taking place. It points out that there is no substitute for military repression to restore order.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p>\n\t\u00bb Similar alarms are being raised in the United States. Despite a campaign by Lopez Obrador to reach out to US and European officials, US newspapers are becoming increasingly critical of the PRD candidate and his tactic of mobilizing popular support.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p>\n\t\u00bb While the Houston Chronicle openly worries about the possibility of violence, the Washington Post accuses the PRD candidate of using ad terrorem tactics and taking lessons from Joseph Stalin. The Dallas Mornng News calls Lopez Obrador an egomaniac and declares that the mobilization of masses of people to petition the electoral tribunal has little to do with democracy.<\/em> \u00bb<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
