Complicity and Collusion of the US Government with the
Violence and Impunity in Mexico
November 26, 2014
Good greetings. As a constituency of Indigenous Peoples living in the O’otham Jeved territories of the
O'otham Nations also now known as the State of Arizona, and in recognition of
the historical injustices that have been perpetrated via complicity and collusion
among the governments of the colonizing settler states of the Americas since
their assumption by succession of the precepts of the Doctrine of Christian Discovery of October 12th 1492:
In
acknowledgement that these criminal actions of complicity and collusion are marked
in particular regionally by the inter-relationship among the governments of the
USA and Mexico, and the establishment of the international border between the
two countries by the Treaty of Guadalupe
Hidalgo in 1848;
In absolute denunciation of the regime of the narco-state that rules now in Mexico
and the partnership with that criminal enterprise lent by the US Government in terms of policies,
training, and supplies in particular by the Plan Mérida Mexico and the North
American Free Trade Agreement;
On
November 20, 2014 we met here in Arizona with a representative of US
Congressman Matt Salmon to request that Congressman Salmon provide the names
and particulars of the 5 individuals and trained by the US military involved in
the Massacre of Tlatlaya, Mexico on
June 30 where 22 youth were executed by the armed forces of the state of
Mexico. Congressman Salmon was most
recently in Mexico on November 7th attending a meeting with the Procurador General de la Nacion, Jesús Murillo Karam.
We
have become informed that on November 18th, the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights entered into agreement with the Government of Mexico and
representatives of the 43 Disappeared
Students of Ayotzinapa which will allow for an Interdisciplinary Group of technical experts to work collaboratively
towards the locating of the disappeared students, punishment for the
responsible parties, and assistance for their families. Our understanding is
that the essential aim of the agreement is to resolve the underlying structural
problems in Mexico regarding forced disappearances, which are not limited to
students of Iguala.
For this reason we now submit this Petition for Review before the Interdisciplinary Group that the issue of Complicity and Collusion by the US government's policies, training and funding of the operatives of the narco-state in Mexico be brought to light comprehensively, and the cause of justice be served.

Mexico in Crisis: U.S. Drug War Funding, Ayotzinapa and Human Rights Violations
US Government Complicity and Collusion with Impunity and Violence in Mexico
Background:
The drug war is designed to perpetuate itself. The drug war
is built to fuel the drug war, not to stop drug production, trafficking or
consumption, not to address real public health issues, but to create these very
forms of violence, which require further military intervention.

Democracy NOW!
LAURA CARLSEN: Good morning. Yes, the United States has a
fairly direct role in what’s happening today. And as the students begin and
youth begin to analyze it, it’s becoming a major issue in terms of how far
they’ll be able to change the model. Besides the nearly $3 billion that’s come
through the Merida Initiative, there’s also Department of Defense money, and
that money is going to train police forces and armed forces, that now we find
are directly involved in attacks on the people, and particularly attacks on
youth. We mentioned the case of Tlatlaya, where 22 youth were—now, it seems, by
all evidence available—actually executed by the armed forces. And the State
Department has admitted that in that battalion, although we don’t know because
they won’t give us the names, there are five individuals that were trained in
the United States. So there’s been a call for a long time to stop the Merida
Initiative precisely for this reason, because of what John mentioned, that the
state agents, at this point, in Mexico and organized crime are one in the same
in many, many parts of the country.
