Zapatista


In this country, where politics to take place without a conviction, but also without irony, I remember about a slim, masked and armed, he who was out of the guerrilla scene in the Lacandon jungle in Mexico, with a bag of bullets at his waist but he sucked a small pipe such a dreamy poet.

He is captivating not only because he is a photogenic figure. He is charming because he, Subcomandante Marcos, is an example of a struggle with confidence but at the same time with a sense of irony, one who acts for a big change but with a sense of limits, a leader of the military wing of the Zapatista movement who attempts to understand the nature of his own struggles as a paradox .



"What should we tell is the paradox, actually it is us, "he said in an interview with Gabriel Garcia Marquez, the English version was published in New Left Review, May-June 2001.

Indeed, there is an odd thing in the EZLN, an abbreviation for the Zapatista National Liberation Army. "Our soldiers are very different from the others, because this army advises to stop as a soldier, "Marcos siad, "A soldier is someone absurd who must use the weapon to convince others, and in that sense this movement has no future if its future is military. "

For Subcomandante Marcos, the worst which can happen to the Zapatista movement is when will he wins and sits in his power and strengthen himself by forming a revolutionary army. In 1995 Marcos had indeed said if the Zapatistas voice was heard around the world, it was because there was something new in the spirit. For this movement, the political problem was separated from the problem of taking power.

He is different from the "Che" Guevara, Fidel Castro, the Sandinistas, and the number of left-wing guerrillas who became his predecessors in Latin America in the '60s and '70s. Their success, Marcos said, would be a fiasco for the Zapatistas. Times have changed.

Victory of the movement and left-wing guerrillas such as in Cuba finally in the end just shows the failure or even a whopping hidden behind the mask of success. Because for Marcos, the unsolved case is the role of civil society in the middle of a dispute between "two hegemony". The first is the oppressive power which governs all things in the name of society. The second is the power against the oppressor and then when it wins it also regulates all things in the name of society.



Society itself has no role and for them life also doesn't change. In many ways, the Zapatistas is "Left" in a new sense. For the "Left" in the Marxist - Leninist tradition, Marcos ideas are not interested in taking over power, and will always choose the position as "a gadfly of the existing power" is a little like empty daydream. Is it possible to change lives without controlling the changes? And how in control without showing themselves as the most ready, the most accomplished? But for Marcos, the Zapatista basic idea is different. This movement is about to open up a space for the search path to justice, but he was crowing that he was carrying a majority vote, as the pioneer of revolutionary groups in general. "EZLN," Marcos said in an interview with Marquez, " Recognizing the real horizon of itself."

For him, "Believe that we can speak on behalf of those who are beyond the reach of us is tantamount to political masturbation."

And this is what he said in 1995, "We hope people will understand, the ideal which move us is fair, and that the path we choose is also fair, but it is not the only way. Nor is it the way the best of everything."

A liberal political philosophy that is hidden behind the opposition to neoliberal economic structure makes Zapatistas become an inspiration for the progressive people in the demonstrations in Seattle and Genoa. Maybe we can't and don't need to put Marcos in one of the existing boxes. The age and experience had taught him the necessity of irony, also when people take up arms with the will be a big change, and with it any label will seem excessive, ridiculous.

He, with the rifle in his hands and a dull red neck tie always be with the novel Don Quixote during the guerrilla. For him, Cervantes's novel was the best book of political theory, with Hamlet and Macbeth.  Literature, especially poetry, especially Romancero Gitano by Federico García Lorca, first came to the guerrilla leader's living space, it came before Marx and Engels went to his head. He said to Marquez, that when he went into Marx and Engels, he had completely undermined by the literature, "its irony, and its humor".

The irony, humor : some cracks interrupt amid the tight confidence and pompously over a large agenda.

In a country where the politics take place without a conviction, but also without irony, in which not only the ideology will die, but also the ideas, where the religion does not change the political behavior, but on the contrary, where no one smile a little when recognizing the power as a tacky seat but being chased in the human comedy, yes, in this country. One such Subcomandante Marcos may be imagined as a tale of odd and unnecessary, but maybe because I remember him.

Malaysian printer censors pigs' faces
Ah, I guess they deflect the essential essence of a creature of God's creation, which later they named it as a pig. I hope Islam should be able to educate its people in obedience to what is forbidden in Islamic teachings. It's good to examine in detail why pork is forbidden for human consumption. And for this reason I admit that Islam is an intelligent religion, very open to the horizons of science. But not like this act : A handful of pigs' faces have been censored in the Malaysian edition of the International New York Times, it seems. The black marks were the work of Malaysian printing firm KHL, which blotted out the faces in a story about farming in the United States, according to the Malay Mail. A representative said it was their policy to obscure pigs because Malaysia was "a Muslim country".

O pig, I do not have to be a pig to understand that you do not understand why you are created with the faces --- which according to them --- are bad. You are not given a choice to have a pretty face, such as the cute guys --- which according to them - are cool in the U.S. Congress, for example... ehehhehe ...

I am very grateful to have been created as the most perfect creature in God's creation, and for you to know, it is not my choice. So, as an expression of my gratitude, I will never insult your face, even though you're just a pig, because if I insult your face, then that means I'm insulting the creation of your creator, the creator of myself as well.

I'm just trying to learn more the secret values behind all creation around me, not to feel as the best than others.

FRANCE : His 'Challenging' Private Life - In an exclusive interview with TIME, French President Francois Hollande answered questions about his personal relationships hours before announcing the end to his longtime partnership with Valerie Trierweiler.
Based on Hollande case, it is important for all people in any country to be very selective in choosing their president. Highlighting their personal life! Never to elect a president who has an abnormal personal life. They will be protected by law regarding the private life of every individual if they already have a good private life as well. So, do not ever listen to a stupid call from this French comedian. First he does not have the fidelity of self. Second, he is a womanizer man. Third: he cut off his relationship with Valerie because of another woman. Fourth: All of it's revealed to the public. Fifth: he is embarrassed. Furthermore, he uses his position as president to protect his personal defects. Ehehehee... do you think the law is the only kind of your underwear or what, Hollande? What if your scandal is never revealed, hm? Yups! You still jerk and the law never know it. And a giant chinch sitting quietly, triumphantly, under the French presidency. Blah!  Please step down, Mr. Comedian. Your joke is pathetic. Thank you for trying to be funny. Unfortunately, we can not laugh at all.

A team led by the Kenya Wildlife Service takes measurements of a tranquilized male lion's teeth while preparing to fit the creature with a GPS-tracking collar in Nairobi National Park in Kenya. Kenyan wildlife authorities are fitting livestock-raiding lions with collars that alert rangers by text message when the predators venture out of the national park, enabling the rangers to quickly move to the areas where the lions have encroached and return the animals to the park.

"Thank you for your perception! I like your romantic side, even if I do not always comment and I'm glad that you're in my circle of friends."
(Courtesies by: Wolfgang A. Gerhardt)

Wolfgang A.Gerhardt : May be you like this Sunday collage

Cisca Zarmansyah : Before today, there never was a person doing this to me. You create a simple matter to look special. This is a special thing for me.

Cisca Zarmansyah : Thank you. I love it. I love you, my friend.

CieL- FreYa Ceastle : Hmm, he's so nice...















"I am me.
In all the world,
there is no one else exactly like me.
Everything that comes out of me
is authentically mine,
because I alone chose it --
I own everything about me:
my body,
my feelings,
my mouth,
my voice,
all my actions,
whether they be to others or myself.
I own my fantasies,
my dreams,
my hopes,
my fears.
I own my triumphs and successes,
all my failures and mistakes.
Because I own all of me,
I can become intimately acquainted with me.
By so doing,
I can love me
and be friendly with all my parts.
I know there are aspects about myself that puzzle me,
and other aspects that I do not know
-- but as long as I am friendly
and loving to myself,
I can courageously and hopefully
look for solutions
to the puzzles and ways
to find out more about me.
However I look and sound,
whatever I say and do,
and whatever I think and feel at a given moment in time
is authentically me.
If later some parts of how I looked,
sounded,
thought,
and felt
turn out to be unfitting,
I can discard that which is unfitting,
keep the rest,
and invent something new
for that which I discarded.
I can see,
hear,
feel,
think,
say, and do.
I have the tools to survive,
to be close to others,
to be productive,
and to make sense
and order out of the world of people
and things outside of me.
I own me,
and therefore,
I can engineer me.
I am me,
and I am okay."

VIRGINIA SATIR
(American Phychologist and Educator, 1916-1988)
