Despite U.S. Threats, Voters Return Sandinistas To Power 
The Sandinista revolution, upon coming to power in 1979, confiscated the land that had been held by the Somoza family and some of his closet cronies and redistributed it to the poor that worked it partly through establishing collectively run state farms.

Notice to Activist: Two Acts must be revoked immediately! 
NOTE TO FELLOW ACTIVISTS: the MOST PRESSING ISSUES TODAY are two bills that were signed into law on October 17, 2006. These new acts that were passed into law by congress -- The Military Commissions Act of 2006 and the John Warner Defense Authorization Act of 2007, trump any other issues out there today because these are the keys to ultimate tyranny. If these acts

PFP and Army, Out of Oaxaca: Long live the resistance of the barricades! The following message, "PFP and Army, out of Oaxaca," is an unofficial translation of the latest declaration by the Mexican Trotskyist LTS on the situation in Oaxaca.
