El Yunque (The Anvil) is the name of a secret Mexican organization that, according to its critics, its objective its to establish a government based on the roman catholic religion. It was founded in 1955 in the city of Puebla, Puebla, by Ramón Plata Moreno and Manuel Díaz Cid.
Wealthy businessmen and politicians (mostly from the National Action Party) have been named as alleged founders and members of The Anvil. The father of Ricardo Salinas Pliego, owner of Televisión Azteca, and one of the wealthiest men in Mexico, Hugo Salinas Price describes sponsoring and supporting Movimiento Universitario de Renovadora Orientación (MURO) a supposed Yunque front group, in his autobiography. It is unclear to what extent the sponsors of MURO knew of the supposed organizational structure and goals of its theoretical affiliation to El Yunque.
Since it is a secret organization, all information about it comes from its critics and anonymous ex-members. One of the most prominent critics of The Anvil, investigative reporter Álvaro Delgado says that The Anvil was founded to "defend the Catholic religion and fight against the forces of Satan, even by force and murder". He also claims that top members of the National Action Party (PAN) and former President Vicente Fox's cabinet are also members of El Yunque. PAN president Manuel Espino Barrientos talked in an interwiew in 2002 without inconvenience about the membership to El Yunque of some acquitances of his.
According to Andres Manuel López Obrador and his supporters, El Yunque was specifically pointed as the mastermind behind the organization of the highly successful march against crime in Mexico City (June 27, 2004); because of this supposed connection, the leftist mayor of Mexico City at the time, Lopez Obrador, saw the march as a political attack against him by El Yunque and downplayed its importance.
According to its critics, the secret organization of El Yunque is supposedly paramilitary in nature, performing its actions (including political assassination) mostly through a set of front organizations, including the student organization MURO at the National Autonomous University of Mexico in the 1960s. Over time, the organization supposedly evolved and began working towards the establishment of what crtics call "a fascist" government in Mexico achieving its goals through more conventional political means.
