Si Se Acaban Los Bárbaros

It is in Español, so I apologize to the English-only crowd, but the article makes some good points and reflects the spirit of adventurism which I associate with PBH. Enjoy.

I think several people have said that before. Now with a real possibility for the FARC to collapse (dismantle, dissapear, disband, die, rot in jail ... whatever you prefer happens to them) the idea of "what`s next?" recovers importance. On Semana there is article by Joaquin Villlalobos (Ex guerrilla commander in El Salvador) whre he says that in COL there is already a postconflict because there are more demobilizaded guerrillas than actual combatants. http://www.semana.com/wf_InfoArticulo.aspx?IdArt=109022 (Spanish too) Both articles seem to think it is time to plan what COL is going to do after FARC. Democratic party or Republican party is fine......as long as theres a party!!!!!!! 0 funny, 0 helpful.
