Three of the rescued police men from Operation Jacque came to speak at our school. It was really moving. At the end of the talk, one of the police men basically said he would do it again to make Colombia a place with dreams and opportunities for all these children. It was a little disconcerting considering his audience was some of the richest kids in Colombia.

Another comment was - "Is this a gringo school? There are so many blondes here!"

As long as Colombiano(a)s STILL bother to march, there is yet hope...

Better to have tried and failed than having regrets all your life about what you MIGHT have missed

If I was Uribe I would just get it over with and send all military forces into the jungle and destroy anything that resists......yes, sacrifice the hostages....that is hard to say....but, sooner or later ya gotta act. Fujimori proved this in Peru and Israel does not mess around either.

FARC had a chance with Pastrana for peace and they showed who they are. Before Uribe leaves he should mop up the country and the FARC!

They can march until hell freezes over and it does nothing!

They´ve been trying this for more than 40 years and proved unable to destroy "anything thta resist".
