Jerry, I don't get it: why are the supporters of Sendero relevant to pen-l? Sendero, like the MTRA, is down for the count, not very relevant as a political force in Peru except as a force that scares and/or disgusts people. Rather than talk about fights that have happened on other lists (M-I, etc.) involving the last Don and all that, could someone provide us with a serious analysis of what's happening in Peru? Is there some non-MRTA, non-Sendero, force in Peruvian politics that doesn't succumb to the parliamentary game but still has some influence on politics and support from workers and politics? Anything like the Brazilian Workers' Party when it was growing? in pen-l solidarity, Jim Devine
