   MEMORANDUM

Rosendo Martinez, a native and citizen of Guatemala, petitions for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals’ order summarily affirming an immigration judge’s (“IJ”) decision denying his application for asylum. We have jurisdiction pursuant to 8 U.S.C. § 1252. We review for substantial evidence, Lim v. INS, 224 F.3d 929, 933 (9th Cir.2000), and we deny the petition for review.

Substantial evidence supports the IJ’s determination that Martinez failed to establish past persecution because the threats he faced do not rise to the level of persecution. See id. at 936.

Substantial evidence also supports the IJ’s finding that Martinez does not have a well-founded fear of future persecution, particularly in light of Martinez’ lack of active support for the guerillas or the government, and the signing of the 1996 Peace Accords. See Belayneh v. INS, 213 F.3d 488, 491 (9th Cir.2000).

PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED.
