IndymediaMexico: After a painful march of more than 15 days, the March for the Dignity of the People of Oaxaca has reached the gates of the Federal District in Valle de Chalco.
A popular rebellion has been going on in Oaxaca for four months now against governor Ulises Ruiz, whose government is characterized by corruption, political assassinations and the criminalization of social dissent.
PrensaLatina: "Mexican opposition leader Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador termed important the peaceful resistance stated last July in Mexico to stop economic and social inequalities.
Lopez Obrador said in Tabasco, as part of a national tour, that the mobilization will continue as part of a fair and vital movement otherwise Mexicans will stay without a defense.
He noted the disparity in per capita distribution of incomes as 90 percent earn less than the minimum and 100 people get fortunes and concentrate national wealth.
He added that misery affects namely the indigenous population marginalized at swamps and mountains and very few know to read and write."

SeattleTimes: "The Navy lawyer who took the Guantánamo case of Osama bin Laden's driver to the U.S. Supreme Court - and won - has been passed over for promotion by the Pentagon and must soon leave the military."
Independent: "The police and other official bodies could escape prosecution for the death of people in police custody, army barracks or prison or local authority care, if exemptions to a new Bill are agreed this week.
The Corporate Manslaughter Bill will make companies liable for prosecution if they fail to ensure the safety of workers or the public.
But civil liberties campaigners warn that the list of exemptions, if agreed, will allow many government bodies to escape prosecution for gross negligence."
Prepare for a lawless society.
