Plan Colombia“: half a billion of your dollars each year going to pay for certainly hundreds, likely thousands, of “extrajudicial killings” (i.e., murders) by the Colombian military each year. No, that doesn’t count the slaughter carried out by the army’s paramilitary allies, whose leaders now run the cocaine trade and have seats in the parliament.

But don’t worry: only some of the murder victims are “false positives.” Others were actually associated with the FARC.

If adherence to “free trade” requires voting for a free trade agreement with the Uribe regime, include me out.
