Look at the picture of Cesar in the article. Does he look like he just won $20 million?

Bravo, Presidente Uribe for the perfect operation!

People can believe what they want about the rescue and how it was done, but the fact that these people are no longer kept in these appalling conditions is reason enough to just be happy about it.

that would be good justice to deport that dirtbag to a US based prison. there are a few prisons in the US that are hellish nightmares, which is what he deserves. he'll be wishing he was back in the jungle...

Good point:

"Colombian armed forces commander Fredy Padilla said Bogota made no payment. "I deny that the government of Colombia has paid a single cent for this operation. It would be more beneficial to me that alias Cesar would have received $20m because that would be even more devastating for the Farc," Padilla said."

Bravo, Presidente Uribe for the perfect operation!

The FARC are believed to have strong connection in Switzerland where I think the story originated.

atrevido....i'll bet that "strong connection in switzerland" starts at their bank accounts.

caesar kinda looks like he bumped his head getting into the helicopter looks like he hit the door jam at about 25 mph.
