I was Interested In what Peoples Opinions Were Towards Zapatismo? What Can We Do? What Is The Greater Good!

I am currently reading The Zapatista Reader and I have to admit I am somewhat confused about what their true goals are. They seem to be anarchists but evidently Marcos is of Marxists persuasion. Whatever their true goal and beliefs are I support any group resisting neoliberalism.

Zapatisas (http://www.zapatistas.org/)

That site has some good articles by the Zapatistas though the "Why Zapatismo is not Marxism" article does not seem to work. I think I have it copied somewhere and will try and post it all later.

To me, it doesn't matter how Zapatismo fits in with other leftist ideologies, because it seems to me that they're fighting against globalism and neoliberalism in defense of their people and country, which to me is usually a justified fight.

I support them. Even though they aren't full blown anarchists, they do have some anarchic tendencies.
