It concluded that the financial institutions (World Bank and IDB) as well as Guatemalan government agencies and private contractors all share liability for the unmet obligations to the community. The group found that while legal agreements were inadequate to address successful resettlement, these agreements still obligated the Government of Guatemala, INDE, the IBD and the World Bank to legally acquire land and to replace housing and public services. The obligations that were written into these legal agreements have the status of international law and are therefore still binding on the government of Guatemala. On Monday, November 29, 2004 the High Level Commission met and listened to arguments and petitions from the dam-affected community leadership and agreed that a Verification Commission would be established with the participation of one person from the executive branch of the Guatemalan Government, one representative from INDE; one representative from the World Bank, two representatives of the affected communities, and one international expert in dams who has had experience with Chixoy. A potential start date for this Verification Commission was to be just after Christmas in 2004, with an initial three month mandate.

     Extractions: VICTORY (Almost) FOR DEL MONTE WORKERS IN GUATEMALA! March, 2000 Newsletter In a significant victory for banana workers and the international labor solidarity movement, the International Union of Foodworkers (IUF) and Fresh Del Monte Produce signed an agreement on March 7, 2000 that is expected to lead to a final resolution of the most important labor struggle in Guatemala in the past three years. Under the agreement, Del Monte is permitted to lease three plantations to independent producers but the producers must rehire all workers fired in September, recognize the union, and negotiate a collective bargaining agreement. At press time, Del Monte's local subsidiary, BANDEGUA, and its union SITRABI (Sindicato de Trabajadores Bananeros de Izabal), were negotiating implementation of the agreement in Guatemala. On October 13, 1999, two hundred armed men in Morales, near the Atlantic Coast, abducted the leadership of SITRABI, the oldest and strongest union in Guatemala, and beat up one union leader in front of his family. At gunpoint, the thugs then forced them to sign resignation papers and threatened them with death if they didn't abandon their homes. The five union leaders and their families then fled for their lives to Guatemala City, where they have been in hiding or under police protection ever since. The violent intimidation came in response to the union's efforts to protest Del Monte's illegal firing in September of nearly 900 workers at three Del Monte plantations in the Bobos district. Del Monte subsequently leased the plantations to three "independent" producers who reopened the plantations as Del Monte suppliers with non-union workers at lower wages and reduced benefits. The move was intended to reduce Del Monte labor costs and would have broken the back of the 52-year old SITRABI union.

     Extractions: By Ken Sanders "Those who do not remember the past are condemned to relive it." - George Santanya It is probably safe to assume that few Americans know or care about their nation's history of atrocities in Latin America. They neither know nor care about the death squads in Guatemala and El Salvador that were trained, funded, and equipped by the U.S., and which tortured and murdered thousands of alleged "communists and terrorists." From the point of view of the U.S. government, Americans' ignorance and disinterest in their nation's history of "counter-terror assistance" to countries like Guatemala is a real boon. It makes it that much easier for the U.S. to fund, train, and equip nearly identical death squads in Iraq. Beginning in the 1960's, the U.S. assisted the right-wing Guatemalan government in establishing a counter-terrorist task force to combat communist insurgent groups (a.k.a. terrorists). For instance, when the Guatemalan government asked for help in developing special squads that would kidnap, torture, and kill suspected communists, the U.S. military recommended that the U.S. "fully support current police improvement programs and initiate military psychological warfare training and additional counterinsurgency operations training." In other words, Guatemala got the help it wanted.

     Extractions: Title: 1/28/96 Repatriation Grows Increasingly Dangerous GUATEMALAN REPATRIATION GROWS INCREASINGLY DANGEROUS SOLDIERS AND CIVIL PATROLLERS ATTACK RETURNING REFUGEES Human Rights Watch/Americas strongly condemned recent cases of state violence against Guatemalan refugees returning from Mexican camps, asserting that they cast serious doubts on the government's commitment to safe refugee repatriation. Return to Violence in Guatemala: Refugees, Civil Patrollers, and Impunity, released today, calls on officials to prosecute soldiers and civil patrollers responsible for abuses. "Recent human rights violations against former refugees reflect deep resistance to repatriation by military officers and civil patrollers, which the government of Ramiro de Leon Carpio failed to overcome," commented Anne Manuel, deputy director of Human Rights Watch/Americas. "President Alvaro Arzu must demonstrate his commitment to the safety of refugees, by prosecuting those responsible for violating their rights. He must effectively counter the stance of army officers and civil patrollers who continue to view refugees as potential subversives, even as the peace process progresses."
