Well I just joined this forum, and is good to have a place to discuss this kind of issues like politics and stuff. I am a devoted follower of el "CHE", I think some of his thoughts might be really useful at this moment. So as I said in the title, I am from Colombia, and as you may know, we are in a lot of trouble here. So as for now I end my writing, but I will continue posting, I hope I also get replies.

I hope you find your way back here. It seems that Colombia is indeed in bad shape, and I'd truly like to hear what you think about things.

Hey, its good to have a voice from a place that offers insight. I am affiliated with a group that sends quite a few people to colombia as observers, Accion permanente por la paz (witness for peace). recently I got the chance to meet with a displaced afro-colombian, he told me of the awful state of his country and the plight of his people.
It seems to me most of the problem roots from my country, the us, the ariel spraying to kill cocoa ect. Please keep us informed

Greetings Kuchi,
glad to hear from a comrade in a country that's at least half communist.I don't know too much about your country,but I do know that the FARC have seriously rattled the U.S. govt.I heard Bush say that his "Crusade on Terrorism"may be focusing on Colombia shortly.As if you guys don't have enough shit to deal with!Maybe he means he'll stop training the right-wing paramilitaries,but somehow I doubt it.Seriously though,they must believe that the country is close to going red,I'm sure Che would have relished the thought.A major South American country joining the cause....Anyway,gotta sign off so keep safe man.

I heard about the War on Terrorism going to Colombia. There's a map that was in the independant that showed the organizations they'd be going after and FARC was one of them along with the NLA.

Most of them are Islamic Terrorists and there's the PKK, ETA, Tamil Tigers, The Real IRA, and November 17th but there's no right-wing groups on the list.
