	MRTA / Peruvian Graffiti / g c i 275
		MRTA has practically disappeared in Peru, though there may be a few holdouts in the jungle that have been able to keep the faith because of the close connection with the cocaine trade.
		Both MRTA and Sendero owe much of their financial viability to the cocaine trade, basically extorting drug lords for "war taxes" in the name of the growers.
		During the days when MRTA and Sendero were competing to gain militants, there was a dirty tactic of leaking info about the other group to the military and the police.

	IEC: Background Material on the Recent MRTA Embassy Takeover in Lima
		As of this writing, the MRTA continues to hold 73 hostages, among them three top ministers; five generals and a dozen colonels and majors; the head of the supreme court, several supreme court members and assorted judges.
		In their communiques the MRTA has strongly distinguished itself from the PCP, not only in term of the political line and programme but also in terms that imply that the regime should distinguish between "good" revolutionaries such as them and "bad" revolutionaries such as the PCP.
		The point is this: the MRTA seeds to come to an agreement with various elements in the ruling class, no matter whether they can achieve this right now or whether first they have to return to the jungle to fight.

	Tupac Amaru Revolutionary Movement
		Tupac Amaru Revolutionary Movement or (MRTA - Movimento Revolucionario Tupac Amaru) is an active guerrilla movement in Peru.
		Peru's counterterrorist program has diminished the group's ability to carry out terrorist attacks, and the MRTA has suffered from infighting, the imprisonment or deaths of senior leaders, and loss of leftist support.
		In December 1996, 14 MRTA members occupied the Japanese Ambassador's residence in Lima and held 72 hostages for more than four months.

	MRTA Hostage Crisis in Peru
		The MRTA used Fidel Castro as an ally and a supplier of weapons and training both in the early days of the movement and in the months leading to the December 17, 1996 taking of the Japanese Embassy.
		The MRTA summarized their sentiments in a press release just before the take over of Japanese embassy: "The Fujimori regime is a terrorist, murderous, criminal gang running Peru," (Shen 1) and "Fujimori continues to approve laws which are strengthening his authoritarian hold," (Obrero 1).
		The fourteen MRTA rebels, dressed as waiters and attendants easily made their way in the minimum security event and at approximately 8:20 PM set off explosions and shut the embassy off to the outside world.

	Multi-Robot Task Allocation (MRTA)
		Together, the cost of the static algorithm, the frequency with which it is executed, and the manner in which tasks are considered for (re)assignment will determine the overall computational and communication overhead of the system, as well as the solution quality.
		Thus it is these characteristics of MRTA architectures in which we are interested and that we are currently analyzing.
		Having given a formal statement of the MRTA problem, we are now in a position to analyze some of the key task allocation architectures from the literature.

	Manitoba Recreational Trails Association
		The roots of the MRTA go back to the 1980’s, when a group of civil servants saw an opportunity for the development of recreational trails in the rail lines that were slated for abandonment in the mid-1980’s.
		In 1992, the concept of the TCT was conceived, and the MRTA was approached in 1993 to become the official provincial trail council for the TCT.
		The MRTA would be responsible for managing the development of Manitoba’s 1300km portion of the TCT, as well as the future development of connecting and non-connecting spur trails, construction of pavilions and trail markers, and the production of interpretive materials.

	MRTA-English
		MRTA's demands were basically the following: the appointment of "guarantors of peace," release of their prisoners, changes of the government's economic policy, a war tax, and that the assaulting commando would be taken to the jungle.
		MRTA's request for the regime to change its economic policy was as symbolic as an early "salute to the waving Flag." It was a cheap demagoguery delivered solely as a publicity stunt.
		The MRTA and revisionism do not fight for the people's interests but act as cushions of the old State, while hypocritically, they are playing the role of "opposition" in the bogus "parliament." They try to legitimize the charade of "democracy" and effectively serve the interests of the great bourgeoisie and imperialism.

	Peruvian Terrorists?
		Specific instances of MRTA human rights abuses include the killing of civilians during an attack on a town and the murder of a U.S. businessperson kidnapped and held for ransom.
		The leader of the MRTA embassy takeover, Nestor Cerpa Cartolini, was a union official jailed in 1979 for leading a worker occupation of a textile plant which was being closed.
		According to Velazco, the MRTA was founded in 1984 "as a political and military organization, not to follow a specific ideology, but because the Peruvian people's historic conditions have always been characterized by the ruling class' use of violence." The group's name symbolizes the Peruvian indigenous people's historical resistance to oppression.

	ENN Series; MRTA Hostage Take-Over in Peru
		The president's speech came hours after the MRTA rebel chief inside of the compound announced that he would gradually release any hostages who were not connected to the Peruvian government.
		A statement read on the behest of the MRTA said that they were releasing a "sizable number of hostages," but that a number of people with connections to the Peruvian and Japanese governments would remain in captivity.
		Despite the mass release, the MRTA terrorists showed no signs of giving in to the demands of Peru's president that they lay their weapons down and free the remaining hostages.

		PANAMA CITY - Should Peruvian MRTA rebels see a successful outcome to their occupation of the Japanese ambassador's residence in Lima, they may be calling their friends in Panama to thank them, according to a Panamanian intelligence chief.
		The Peruvian government has been calling upon Panama to initiate such an investigation since the arrest of American MRTA activist Lori Brenner and Panamanian artist Pacifico Castrellon, both of whom were arrested during a Peruvian police raid on a MRTA Lima safehouse last year.
		Father Carlos Sanjur is open about his links with MRTA, but denies any involvement in arms deals or managing the groups' funds, and has invited the authorities to investigate the matter which he describes as "without foundation".

		The MRTA takeover of the Japanese ambassador's home began on December 17, when they took hostage hundreds of high-level diplomats, government and military officials and business executives who were attending a party.
		Fujimori is justifying the commando raid by saying that the MRTA had stalled the negotiations and that he was concerned about the health of the hostages.
		The U.S. government also tried to put the blame on the MRTA for their own deaths, claiming that they were "responsible for what happened." Fujimori is being praised by his imperialist sponsors for a "brilliant" rescue plan that resulted in only one of the hostages dying.

	A Brief History Of The MRTA

		One hostage told the Asahi newspaper, referring to the death of an MRTA member, "I saw a murder...I realized that the terrorist arrested (earlier) was killed when I heard the news that (all) 14 terrorists had died in the operation."
		All MRTA members were reportedly shot in the head after the initial attack.

		Almost all MRTA members have had that experience, through the disappearance of their parents, the torture of their brothers, the rape of their sisters; others have suffered the violence in their own flesh, directly.
		For while many of us enter into this struggle because we care about life and about living, the truth is that our enemies, those who are destroying life on this planet, have shown themselves time and again to be willing, in fact eager, to kill to increase their power.
		Thus after the assault, Fujimori stated that he was "very sorry for the loss of three human lives," meaning the two soldiers and one hostage who died (of a heart attack) in the assault.

		MRTA acts as if it were a cowboy by drafting a land utilization plan to use almost 700 rai of MRTA depot land (more than 1 million square meters of office space) for commercial deals such as a giant convention center, commercial buildings, department stores, and a shopping center without delay.
		MRTA has continuously attempted to pursue the government to issue an act that empowers MRTA to make a commercial deal on their land with claims that it is impossible to profit from ticket fees alone.
		MRTA has spent their energy to lobby MPs and Senators since the first days they expropriated the land for public good to pass the MRTA Act of 2000 which became effective on December 1, 2000 - after 14 years of efforts.

	Túpac Amaru Revolutionary Movement - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The MRTA was a Marxist-Leninist revolutionary movement formed in 1983 from remnants of the Movement of the Revolutionary Left, an insurgent group active in Peru in the 1960s.
		Peru's counterterrorist program diminished the group's ability to carry out terrorist attacks, and the MRTA suffered from infighting as well as violent clashes with Maoist rival Shining Path, the imprisonment or deaths of senior leaders, and loss of leftist support.
		On March 22, 2006 Víctor Polay, the guerrilla leader of the MRTA, was found guilty by a Peruvian court on nearly 30 crimes committed during the late 1980s and early 1990s.

		The action by the MRTA in seizing the Japanese in Lima, Peru in December and capturing a spectacular array of personnel from the Peruvian and international ruling class in doing so at first attracted considerable international media attention.
		At one end of this range is the die hard 'Peru is a modern democracy with a booming economy, the MRTA are outdate terrorist die-hards and any flaws in the Peruvian state are due to there presence alone'.
		But whatever the flaws of the MRTA's politics they have succeeded in one thing, all over the world people will be wondering what drove a handful of people to stand up to the might of the Peruvian state with almost no chance of success or escape.
