                                World revolutionaries gather for their summit

                                By Nicole Veash in Sao Paulo

                                6 December 1999

                                Guerrilla groups from across the Americas
will today
                                descend on an Amazonian jungle town to swap
tips on
                                winning the revolutionary struggle. Left-wing
terrorist
                                groups are to join with street demonstrators
fresh from
                                battle in Seattle, in a corporate-style
convention to
                                discuss the path to power.

                                More than 2,500 delegates, including the
notorious
                                Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia, the
Mexican
                                Zapatistas, the guerrilla group championing
Indian rights,
                                and the Black Panthers are gathering in
Brazil for the
                                five-day conference of revolutionaries,
called the
                                "Humanities against Neo-Liberalism" summit.

                                Manoel Lima Amarel, event co-ordinator, said:
"We are
                                very pleased that so many minority groups are
joining
                                together in Brazil to discuss their causes.
It is important
                                for all oppressed Americans to support each
other and
                                to work as one."

                                Conference organisers chose the city of Belem
� situated
                                on the banks of the Amazon � because of its
historical
                                significance. In 1835, it was the site of a
failed uprising
                                by native Indians who were protesting against
the slave
                                trade."Having this conference in Belem
reminds us how
                                little has changed in the past 160 years,"
said Mr Amarel.

                                Despite the presence of known paramilitary
groups, the
                                Belem civil police have not objected to the
gathering,
                                although they will be listening out for
"inflammatory talk".

                                Conference organisers have banned delegates
from
                                exchanging techniques on guerrilla warfare.
Mr Amarel
                                said: "This summit is not about violence It's
about
                                ideology. There are other ways to destroy the
chains of
                                capitalism without resorting to aggression."
