Yes John even the rich and the powerful will choke. I am reminded of these
lines from Brecht's great poem *A worker questions history*

Even in fabled Atlantis, the night that the ocean engulfed it,
The drowning still cried out for their slaves.

Here is Greta Thonburg speaking at UN. It is more than worth listening to.
Note how the very same delegates that she rips into applaud her
condemnation of them. Clearly, the capitalist politicians want to seduce
her into  becoming "realistic", but I find it difficult to see how they
will succeed. For one, this is not a matter of political or social
analysis; it's a matter of scientific fact, and she clearly knows the
facts, and the facts are simply too stark. Nature will not allow room for
some to benefit in this disaster. This means that a new and radical youth

NY Times, Sept. 21, 2019
When he led Burlington, Vt., as a socialist, the Democratic presidential 
contender worked with Republicans and business

By Eliza Collins

BURLINGTON, Vt. -- Bernie Sanders says that if he is elected president, 
he will convince skeptics to support his agenda by building a movement 
so powerful that they will have no choice but to join him.


It is the same thing he says happened when he was mayor here in the 
1980s, his only experience as a chief executive to date. "Democrats, 
Republicans were not stupid," Mr. Sanders said in an interview in his 
campaign office. "And they looked around and they said, 'Oh my God, we 
thought this guy was a fluke, he'd come and he'd go, [instead he] is 
further transforming politics in this city.' . . . So they started 
working with us in a much more constructive way."


Mr. Sanders says his opponents came to their senses and joined him. But 
a close examination of the Vermont lawmaker's record as mayor shows that 
at times he also went to them, working with Republicans, police and 
business on key issues facing the community -- sometimes to the 
frustration of his liberal allies.


"The city was run in the 1980s as a coalition between what you would now 
call the progressives and the Republicans," said John Franco, assistant 
city attorney in the Sanders administration. "Bernie is a fiscal 
conservative. The saying in Vermont is he's tighter than the bark on a 
tree."


The Wall Street Journal interviewed more than a dozen people who lived 
and worked in Burlington from 1981 to 1989, including Mr. Sanders and 
his wife, Jane Sanders, at the time the director of the Youth Office. 
What emerges is a picture of an executive who had the same goals for 
governance as he does today, but won favor with Republicans when his 
administration audited the city's finances, joined with the business 
community on a controversial development project, and once sided with 
the police and factory workers over protesters.


"He'll listen to the points of the other person. And as long as the goal 
is not just to, you know, feather the nests of the wealthy," he will 
work with people, Mrs. Sanders said.


It is a period that the senator doesn't often discuss on the campaign 
trail. His deal-making past could help him reach out to centrist voters 
but could also alienate supporters who are looking for an uncompromising 
candidate to upend the system.


Louie Manno, a radio host here in the 1980s, said Mr. Sanders did a 
"pretty good job" as mayor because his governing was less radical than 
his campaigns.


Mr. Manno is a supporter of President Trump, but he said he isn't 
worried about a Sanders presidency upending the country: "If he became 
the president of the United States, we'd still be a free-market economy, 
we would still have an army, we'd still have a Second Amendment."


Shortly after Mr. Sanders, an independent who identified as a Democratic 
socialist, was first elected mayor, by just 10 votes, Mr. Franco and 
Sandy Baird, a progressive activist and lawyer who later became a state 
representative, were standing in the city's courthouse. Ms. Baird 
remembers Mr. Franco turning to her and proclaiming: "Welcome to the 
revolution."


But in his first term in office, one key initiative of Mr. Sanders's 
administration was more quotidian: Cleaning up the city's finances, a 
move that earned trust from some Republicans. Mr. Franco said they 
wanted to prove to skeptics they knew how to govern.


The Sanders administration audited the city's finances and found a 
surplus of nearly $2 million, which it invested into capital improvements.


Mr. Sanders also formed some alliances with the business community over 
the Burlington waterfront, which local developers wanted to revamp. Mr. 
Sanders said during his campaign that the city wasn't for sale. But once 
in office, he decided to back a commercial development plan.


After that idea fell apart amid progressive resistance, the Sanders 
administration pivoted to a development vision focused on public access, 
the basis for the current waterfront, which includes a bike path and dog 
park.


Mr. Sanders considers the waterfront a significant piece of his legacy 
and held his 2016 presidential kickoff rally in a spot framed by Lake 
Champlain and the mountains.


Peter Clavelle, who succeeded Mr. Sanders as mayor and oversaw the final 
stages of waterfront development, said Mr. Sanders's involvement with 
the business community helped make it happen.


"Bernie was not just the rabble rouser," said Mr. Clavelle, who was the 
first director of the Community and Economic Development Office under

She fought for decades to recover the remains of her father, who had been
executed by a firing squad in 1939. Finally, when she was 92, she found him.

By Katharine Q. Seelye
Published Sept. 22, 2019
Updated Sept. 23, 2019

Ascensión Mendieta was just 13 in 1939 when her father was lined up against
a wall in Spain and shot by a firing squad of soldiers loyal to Gen.
Francisco Franco. His body was then dumped into a mass grave.

Ascensión would devote her entire life to finding her father and giving him
a proper burial. Only recently, at age 92, did she fulfill that ambition.

After decades of agony and searching, she located him in 2017, in the
cemetery at Guadalajara. She had his remains exhumed and buried him in
Madrid at a ceremony attended by  hundreds of mourners.

“Now I can rest in peace,” she said at the time.

On Sept. 16, Ms. Mendieta died in Madrid at 93, her family reported on
social media. Her last wish was carried out when her own coffin was placed
in the same tomb as her father and she was buried with him.

She had come to personify the struggle for justice shared by the families
of perhaps as many as 200,000 victims of Franco-era executions, whose
bodies were tossed in unmarked graves or along the side of roadways
throughout Spain.

Her simple demand for justice made Ms. Mendieta, a modest small-town woman
who did not seek the spotlight, a hero to many.

As the BBC reported: “This most personal of struggles had inadvertently
made humble Ascensión into a public figure in her final years. She bore her
celebrity status with smiling bewilderment, but she always had a
crystal-clear view on the injustice her family and thousands more had to
stomach during the Franco regime and the failure of the modern Spanish
state to come to terms with the country’s bloody legacy.”

Ascensión Mendieta Ibarra was born on Nov. 29, 1925, and grew up in
Sacédon, east of Madrid, with six siblings. As a teenager she worked as a
seamstress. She eventually had four children. Complete information on
survivors was not immediately available.

Her mother, Maria Ibarra, raised the children while her father, Timoteo
Mendieta Alcala, was the village butcher in Sacédon, in the province of
Guadalajara. More important, he was an officer of the General Workers
Union, a socialist union, which made him a target for Franco.

Ascensión was 13 when a group of men came to the door looking for her
father. She thought they were “well spoken” and let them in.

He was taken and shot against the wall of a Guadalajara cemetery on Nov.
16, 1939. His body was dumped in a mass grave there, along with those of
more than 20 others; more than 800 others who had been executed would
eventually fill the pits in the cemetery.

After Franco’s death in 1975, Ms. Mendieta and other relatives petitioned
the Spanish government for help in locating his remains. The authorities
refused to help.

Family members were  not allowed to visit the mass grave where they
believed he had been tossed. They were left to throw flowers over the
cemetery wall.

In 2010, a group of victims’ families, together with prominent humanitarian
organizations, filed a lawsuit in Argentina seeking an investigation into
Franco’s crimes against humanity. A judge there, María Romilda Servini de
Cubría, had begun an investigation and was compiling a growing file of
people seeking help in finding relatives who had been executed.

In 2013, at age 88, Ms. Mendieta flew to Argentina to add her case to the
file. The judge proceeded under a legal principle called universal
jurisdiction, in which a court in one country can sometimes prosecute
someone elsewhere for crimes believed to have harmed the world. She
eventually gained the cooperation of a Spanish judge, who complied with her
request to dig up some of the graves. (The lawsuit was the subject of a
2018 documentary, “The Silence of Others.”)

A team of archaeologists and volunteers from the Association for the
Recovery of Historical Memory, a human rights group that in 2000 uncovered
the first mass grave of Franco victims, undertook the exhumation, with no
financial support from the Spanish government. After two unsuccessful
attempts, they found Timoteo Mendieta Alcala’s remains in 2017 in what was
 called Pit No. 1 of the cemetery.

The unearthing of those remains marked the first time a Franco-era victim’s
body had been recovered through the courts, according to the BBC. The next
year, the Association for the Recovery of Historical Memory delivered to
families the identified remains of nearly two dozen others who had been
executed in 1939 and dumped in that same cemetery.

Ms. Mendieta buried her father in a nonreligious

"Now here’s a novel thought regarding the GM strike: That the strikers
reach out to their fellow GM workers around the world with the idea of
organizing a global strike against GM.

"Why not? After all, according to Wikipedia GM operates almost as many
plants in other countries (28) as it does in the US (30). And the number is
even higher when you take into account the fact that according to GM itself
it has eleven joint ventures and two wholly owned enterprises in China.

"In other words, like almost every single other manufacturer worth
anything, GM is operating internationally. How do you bring a company like
this to heel, if you don’t match them stride for stride?"

There is every reason to suspect that this strike will be extended and no
reason why striking workers cannot reach out to their fellow workers around
the world for joint labor action.

*We have discussed the invasion of the Indian army into Kashmir on this
email list. There has been some defense of this invasion on the grounds
that it is a matter for Indians to resolve. The real meaning of this can be
seen in the attacks on Muslims in Assam, where a campaign to round them up
is under way. This is being done under the pretext of making people prove
their citizenship by producing birth certificates. However, many people of
all religions there don't have those certificates. According to this
article, now a detention camp is being built to house those who "aren't
citizens". In reality, it's being built to hold Muslims, as this article
makes clear.*

"Officials said the government may pass legislation to protect legitimate
citizens.

"The government is already in the process of bringing legislation to grant
citizenship to Hindu, Sikh and Buddhist immigrants from neighbouring
countries.

"Muslim immigrants are not included in the law.

"The nationalist, hardline Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) group also
called for genuine citizens to be included in the list after it emerged
that Hindus had been affected. The RSS and BJP are closely affiliated."
