el5antuario.org calls Mexican armed forces to march against Election Fraud (Or is it the other way around?)

"Good
morning, good afternoon, good evening" is the traditional greeting Ruy
Salgado uses to open all of his videos in the Mexican political blog el5antuario.org.
Also known as el 5anto, Salgado called the Mexican armed forces to join the massive protests against the Election Fraud in México.
The most popular non-comercial Mexican blog, el5antuario.org,
announced on July 10th a call to the Mexican armed forces to join the
national popular protests against the Mexican Election Fraud.
This call came as a response to several emails that el5antuario.org
has received from several anonymous members of the Mexican armed forces
who have expressed interest in supporting the current public protests
against the so called victory of Enrique Peña Nieto in the Mexican
elections.
In
his daily videocast on July 10th, Salgado described the facts explained
to him by his sources. He explained that armed forces are not allowed
to take part in public protests in full uniform. His main source (a
lieutenant of the armed forces) called for a march of active members of
the armed forces, supported by the various social and student movements
against the election fraud, towards the Secretary of National Defence
premises asking for his support to the impeachment of the Election
process. Salgado added that whilst it would not be possible to have the
military march in their full uniform, it would be nice if they could be
clearly identified. He suggested they marched in white t-shirts, blue
jeans and black boots as a way to identify themselves without recurring
to their full military outfits
Salgado
stressed the powerful image it would make seeing the armed forces
marching "for the defence of the vote". Quoting one of his anonymous
sources he set the context for such participation of troop members in
the protests: "As soldiers, we have sworn to defend our country from any
threat external or internal. And at these moments, our motherland is
being attacked by corrupt politicians" "We are not at the service of the
Government but of the people". These sentences are not only a piece of
rhethoric but the legal foundations of the Mexican armed forces.
