My respect impregnated with admiration for its people, despite the pain of the victims of a conflict without end, forcing me to draw your attention. Who loves well
punishes
well, says the wise proverb. Help your country rather than despise him on! Having lived and worked in Colombia as a journalist abroad (AFP) for about 6 years, I can tell you for sure: you will become part of the First World the day to keep their weapons in the attic.
speaks not only of armed groups or their goals disconnected from economic reality, in a world faced a global globalization. Life of the hostages and cocaine will lead inevitably to eventual failure, a lamentable bloodshed if not end their violence.
What I say is true for the FARC, the ELN and the AUC (or their successors). The surrender of all such organizations allow their reintegration into civilian life, as thousands of others could do as you guys and without suffering the extermination they fear when they evoke the precedent of the Patriotic Union. I also address other important actors of the Colombian society, ie the means of communication. In my capacity as a French journalist, I can tell you that tolerates only their democratic system, without reacting, his repeated insults against the President of Colombia. Like it or not, Alvaro Uribe was elected and then reelected in the first round of each election, 2002y 2006.
If I write about the French head of state what you burp, week after week, on his President, I would be subject to immediate reactions in the Paris court that you are wrong as the paradise of human rights. Do you know perhaps that the former editor of the daily Liberation recently suffered a violent arrest (he was beaten in front of their children, isolated and interrogated by police for 48 hours, you had an anal control, we retiron tie and your shoe laces to avoid, probably, a possible suicide attempt)? "All this for what? What was his crime? For the comment left on an Internet web page of this newspaper. When I read the reactions that readers leave in the Colombian newspapers tell me that all you would be arrested if their papers were published in France!
The FARC announced in December the eventual release of six hostages, who have been chained for six or more years, and his dedication to Piedad Cordoba. That's the ultimate example to date of a scandal that you not only ignored but allowed to develop. His editorials, rather than denounce the blackmail of repeated bloody guerrilla before their promises, they take aim at the president, who opposes, among other things, the presence of Hugo Chavez in this release. Should I remind you of what Venezuela would do their country, if the apprentice dictator could be attached to Colombia in his dream of a new Gran Colombia? You would be turned into pawns or, worse, claims "collaborators" with a communist system that the world hates. Then react, and stop their fights to make his country a beacon of XXI century Latin America.
