A ray of hope for long-suffering Colombia as child is freed from the clutches of suspected FARC gangster kidnappers. This comes just a few days after last Sunday's nationwide demonstrations that called on the FARC and other criminal gangs to abandon their war against Colombia's children. From AP: Kidnapped Boy Rescued, Colombia Rejoices By CESAR GARCIA, Associated Press Writer BOGOTA, Colombia - Police burst into a Bogota home and rescued a 3-year-old boy from a dungeon-like hole, a week after he was kidnapped from his school bus, officials said Tuesday.
The kidnappers snatched Vitys from a school bus in Villavicencio, 45 miles south of Bogota, then brought him to a house in the capital, and stuffed him into a dank cubbyhole underneath the floor. More than 380 children were kidnapped in Colombia last year, many abducted by criminal gangs or leftist rebels seeking ransoms, according to the Colombian anti-kidnapping organization Free Country |

Jump To Comment: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8You'll find that it is in fact the Colombian government junta that are kidnapping and murdering street children. It's just like babaric selfish greedy rich snob juntas to try to solve the probelm of our barrias street children by kidnapping and murdering them. We've seen it all before in places like Brazil, Guatemala where state policemen were trying to exterminate all the children of the poor and the barrias. In a sinister effort on behalf of big business corporations, to beautify barrias districts for tourists. FARC do not kidnap children, they prefer to kidnap wealthy western multinational industrialist tourists and business men. FARC unlike the Colombian junta do have common sense, a strategy and integrity, unlike uncontrolable Junta animals who murder and slaughter peasants whenever possible to satisfy their sadistic urges. In colombia the junta and state security services are like Rose and Fred West, they are that babaric, cruel and sadistic. Can you imagine a country run by Rose and Fred west, well thats what the Colombian Junta are like.
Ian Paisley and Maggie thatcher are the Fred and Rose west of politics here.
No Ian paisley and Daphnee Trimbull
Have you noticed that Ice queen security minister Jane kennely has a bit of an air of Rose west about her. She is actually a blood relative of Rose west.
The Israeli trained paramilitary death squads are the monsters of Columbia who average 30 killings a week of men women and children who get in the way of their drugs operations. The FARC for all their faults are trying to defend the poor of Columbia and are fighting back against the evil, corrupt, American backed, drug barons who rule Columbia.
Once again we find the Israelis doing their dirty work in yet another part of the planet. Not content with running America and causing a war in Iraq they are teaching death squads in Latin America to do what the so-called Israeli Defence Forces are doing in Palestine.

I am not too clear on your reference to West.
If you are talking about some English murderers it is obvious that you are more familiar with England than with Colombia.
I've been in Colombia 7 or 8 times in the past few years, so that kind of garbage doesn't impress me. Colombia has disgraceful disparities between rich and poor, but you don't solve that (and FARC certainly haven't) by murdering and kidnapping people.
Why don't the FARC follow the example of the Farabundo Marti in El Salvador? A decade after losing a civil war they are now poised to take power democratically. Yet FARC is further away than ever from controlling even one mid-sized town, and even less from gaining any foothold in the hearts of the Colombian people. In fact there is distinct evidence that the FARC are on the run in several areas of northern Colombia. Large numbers have been killed or arrested, and in many areas whole units are asking to be admitted into the Rehabilitation programme.
If FARC are so great why did the kidnap the Columbian anti-corruption campaigner,Green Senator and former Presidential candidate Ingrid Betancourt on Feb 23rd 2002. This women is the best hope Columbia has. She has still not been released along with her campaign manager. FARC ARE THE SAME SCUM MURDEROUS TERRORISTS AS THE GOVERNMENT AND SYSTEM THEY CLAIM TO OPPOSE. THEY USE THE SAME MURDEROUS TACTICS. JUST LOOK AT THEIR BAD BEHAVIOUR AS OPPOSED TO THE ZAPATISTAS IN CHIAPAS.
