Taibo II, Paco Ignacio | April 25, 1994 issue

add to cart   close window

The article presents information on Mexico and the political assassination of Luis Donaldo Colosio. One is on the brink of something. One can't figure out what it is. The author's greatest wish was to see Colosio buried in a landslide of votes against him. He did not like the fact that he has been assassinated. The author does not believe in that kind of violence. Mexican society has learned to seek information for itself. To track it down, invent it, fill in the gaps with speculations. Deeply convinced that power is only capable of generating lies, ordinary Mexicans prefer their own lies to those of others.
