Re: [A-List] Erasing US-Mexican Border



MEXICO: Fox Campaign was Illegally Funded by U.S. Interests
Opposition Leaders Call for New Election

Tenochtitlan - May 8, 2002 - (ACN) A bombshell just hit Mexico after
revelations were made public that Vicente Fox's campaign for president two
years ago was illegally funded by U.S. business and other foreign interests.
Mexican federal legislators and leaders of the two major oppositional
parties, the PRD and the PRI, are calling Fox's government illegitimate and
are asking for a reversal of the July 2000 electoral results.

Mexican Senators Manuel Bartlett, Fidel Herrera and Oscar Cantón Zetina said
that they are extremely troubled by the findings of the Tribunal Electoral
del Poder Judicial de la Federación (TFPJF) and their directive to the
Instituto Federal Electoral (IFE) to conduct an immediate and thorough
investigation of the large sums of funds that were funneled to Fox's
campaign from U.S. sources. The TFPJF is an arm of the Mexican Supreme Court
that was set up in 1996 to provide judicial decisions in electoral fraud
cases involving federal elections. The IFE is the federal agency that
administers national elections.

Vicente Fox of the Partido Accion Nacional (PAN) shocked Mexico when he
defeated the PRI after the latter held power for over 71 years. There had
been allegations from the beginning that Fox had received large sums of
money from certain interests in the United States for his campaign
organizations called "Alianza por el Cambio" (Alliance for Change) and
"Amigos de Fox" (Friends of Fox).

The principal architect of Vicente Fox's campaign victory turns out to be
Mexican Jewish Mogul Lino Korrodi, a former Coca Cola kingpin and boss of
Fox when both were with Coca Cola in Monterrey, Mexico. Lino Korrodi was the
National Finance Manager for the Fox Campaign and funneler of U.S. funds to
the campaign. Both Fox and Korrodi studied business at Harvard University in
Massachusetts. Lino Korrodi also studied and majored in Economics at the Tec
de Monterrey, a Jewish stronghold in Mexico. While at the Tec de Monterrey,
Korrodi made strong connections with the Saúl Martínez and the Zacarías
Hinojosa families, both very powerful and wealthy Jewish families in the
State of Nuevo Leon, Mexico.

Lino Korrodi engineered a very sophisticated scheme to funnel vast amounts
of funds from U.S business and Zionist interests to the "Alianza por el
Cambio" (Alliance for Change) and "Amigos de Fox" (Friends of Fox) campaign
organizations. The scheme involved U.S. corporations and Zionist political
action committees to make deposits in U.S. banks that included, among
others, Citibank of New York and US/Mexico border banks such as the Laredo
National Bank and the Bank of West El Paso. The deposits were made in the
name of Valeria Korrodi, Lino Korrodi's eldest daughter of Ciudad Juarez,
Chihuahua. Ms. Korrodi would than turn over the funds in manageable amounts
to Mexican Jewess Carlota Robinson who would than make major payments for
campaign services such as to the television and radio networks and other
mass media organizations. In addition, numerous phoney paper companies were
set up by Lino Korrodi, money wired to their Mexican bank accounts by
Valeria Korrodi and than the "ghost companies" would make major
contributions to the Fox presidential campaign. Among these "paper only
companies" where numerous subsidiaries of Enron, the now discredited
Houston, Texas energy company.

The monetary assistance from U.S. Zionist interests had some strings
attached. In return, Fox had to appoint a number of Mexican Jews to top
cabinet level government positions. One particular appointment has created
major headaches for President Fox. It is the appointment of Jorge Castaneda
Gutman as Secretary of Foreign Relations. Jorge Gutman has made a mess of
Mexico's foreign relations. The majority of the Mexican Congress is
demanding his resignation after being accused of "entreguismo" or of
"selling out" to U.S. interests. He has, single handed, torn to shreds the
great and friendly relations that Mexico has had with Cuba. He also
sabotaged Mexico's role during the last United Nation's Conference on Racism
in South Africa when an important vote to equate Zionism with Racism was
being considered. Presently there is a drive by some Senators to have Jorge
Gutman tried as a Mexican traitor in a national tribunal.

On October 10, 2001, two Israelis, one a retired Colonel of the Israeli
Defense Forces and presumed MOSSAD agent penetrated the highly secured
headquarters of the Mexican Congress. They had Glock automatics, hand
grenades and explosives. They were arrested just prior to the execution of
their mission which was presumed to be blowing up the Mexican Congressional
building. This created quite a stir in Mexico City in the days following the
terrorist attempt. The entire incident was covered by major newspapers and
both television networks as well as numerous radio stations. The whole
affair was swept under the rug and the two Israelis released after the
intervention of Mexican Foreign Secretary Jorge Gutman and the Israeli
Embassy in Mexico City. President Fox has refused to dismiss Gutman from his
duties.

Meanwhile, both U.S. corporate and Zionist interests are benefiting
tremendously under the Fox administration, all at the expense of the Mexican
people. Lino Korrodi has now cornered the Mexican sugar industry, a ploy
that will help the Coca Cola Company and other U.S. beverage businesses.
More and more U.S. owned "maquiladoras" are being given free reign not just
along the border but in the the interior as well. Wages and benefits of
maquiladora workers are the lowest in the world, all which benefits greedy
U.S. corporate interests and depress the wages of the American worker. The
weighty burden to Mexico of the foreign debt owed to the International
Monetary Fund and the World Bank is getting heavier and heavier and may soon
have similar consequences as those in Argentina.

There was great hope for a new ERA in Mexico when Vicente Fox won the
presidency on July 2000. Now that Mexicans know how he actually won, this
hope has diminished significantly. It seems that he won by selling out to
foreign interests. Mexico has greatly cherished its sovereignty. This
political revelation will definitely have major consequences. It is doubtful
that the Fox government will survive.
