The following was created in 1998 to augment the section of Estrellita Restaurant in Mountain View, California that was hosted on rat haus reality from before then until early 2007. Now Estrellita Restaurant has its own site at EstrellitaRestaurant.com. Please visit them for a marvelous selection of gourmet Mexican food. This file on Chiapas and Zapatista links is preserved for historical purposes. (Dead web links have been removed and some have been updated.)
The situation in Chiapas is still very dangerous as the Mexican government continues its war against the Mayan people. We need to continue to intensify our efforts to put pressure on both Mexican and US governments. International pressure has proven an extremely effective method of support. Mobilize and take action now! Stop the war in Chiapas!
