Toeristen in Cancun mogen niet deelnemen aan de protesten tegen het W.T.O. Doen ze dit wel dan worden ze gedeporteerd.

Dit bericht staat in de NYT van vandaag.

"Tourists are not authorized to take part in the demonstrations and could be deported," Melba Pria, a spokeswoman for the Mexican Foreign Ministry, said."

Wat nu verstaan wordt onder toerist, vermeldt men er niet bij.

Als je als "activist" in Cancun rondloopt, ben je dan opeens een toerist? Die dan naar een betoging gaat en aldoende toerist wordt die gaat betogen?

Ondertussen werden imc-activisten al opgejaagd door de politie (lees: beschermers van het imperialisme):

"3 IMC activists chased by police, convergence center under steady surveillance. Advisory to travel in groups."

Kwestie om te voorkomen wat men Italie wel voor elkaar kreeg?
