I like the Brasilian attitude toward FARC-straightforward and uncompromising.

Brazil: Colombian rebels will be met with bullets
Posted on Mon, Apr. 28, Associated Press
BOGOTÃ? -- Brazil's defense minister says that if Colombian rebels enter his country's territory they'll ``be met with bullets.''
Minister Nelson Jobim made the comment Monday in Colombia, where he met with foreign and defense ministers and President Alvaro Uribe. The two nations share a 1,022 mile border.
Colombia is in a diplomatic row with Ecuador over that country's alleged harboring of Colombian rebels. It claims rebels fired mortars from Ecuador into Colombia on Friday, wounding one soldier.
Ecuador denies the claims.
Jobim has said there is no evidence the FARC has a presence on the Brazilian side of the border with Colombia
