[RebelSonBand]

[ilikewarhammer]

If that guys gun jams while underfire hes PHUCKED!!

[TheMaraudingGuy]

Why is there so much hate here, Atheists hating Religions, Religions hating Atheists. West hating East. East hating West. I know theres been ALOT of bad history going on West-East wise but we just cant continue to bash each others head in with constant war... I mean really a third of these comments are about "I hate ----, they did that and this." US/Eu has done some bad things in the past, so has the easterns. It needs to stop somehow.

[r9i9a9p2]

I hate the US

[ccpj1]

@r9i9a9p2 then go sucka fat dick

[RomanicusMaximus]

FARC is gone, and so will be Venezuela's Chavez

[topbluffa1]

the leader play on peoples racism.

when it turns into a black vs white

or anything vs anything they will simply breed with someone else and let you fight it out.............

[yishto]

Honestly, you people judging all of america the same way you think all of america judges the world is just ignorant.

[mmillerm]

Islam is the scourge of the earth.

[yishto]

Unsuccessful troll is unsuccessful.

[naveed991]

fuck the americans they support israel.the biggest terrorist of the world.destroying israel is over mission and we will success inshallah. allah o akbar

[pilotoenrique]

Fuck Muslims... stupid towel heads

[yishto]

Muslims arent the only terrorists in the world...

and even then they are peaceful people, no more violent than your country.

Unsuccessful troll is unsuccessful.

[pilotoenrique]

Yes, this coming from a 16 year old CHILD who doesn't know his ass from a hole in the ground. When your voice is finished changing and you are part of the majority, then try and reflect your world view.

[yishto]

Dude, seriously? You're pulling this bullshit on me despite the fact that you don't really know a thing about my person? Do you even know if 16 is my real age? If you honestly are dumb enough to assume something on the INTERNET. much less assume pretty much everything you've stated, then you honestly need to get a breath of fresh air.

(why did I even respond, you wouldn't get it anyway)

[ElderOfTzion]

@naveed991

Nah. You won't succeed in that. You know how I know this? Because, Masha'allah, you will find a means to peace.

[iiiTOXSICKiii]

what is terrorism? Is it when America funded Israel to wage war on Palestine and kill thousands of innocent people? Or could it be when japan got nuked in areas where no one had anything to do with the war? Hmmm Maybe its when Americans killed thousands of natives for land or when Africans where considered less then human and burned on crosses in the name of god. Nah its okay when America does it, God bless America ! WOO HOO lets just go ahead and nuke korea before they nuke us.

[Frogstomp121]

Or when the Americans promised democracy to the Filipinos, fought side by side with them, only to turn and massacre them to expand their Manifest Destiny, along with Guam, Puerto Rico, and Cuba. The Monroe Doctrine, created by, for, and enforced by the U.S., keeps tight control over Latin America, controlling the land and resources and making the indigenous peoples slave for them, performing coups or invasions to protect their backyard investment in Guatemala, Chile, Niacragua, Grenada, etc.

[veganmetalmilitia]

Sad, but true. It's shameful.

[Frogstomp121]

Terrorism is Operation Northwoods: acts of terrorism proposed by the U.S. Joint Chiefs to JFK which involved sinking Cuban refugees, blowing up ships in Guantanemo Bay, blowing up planes out of the sky, etc. in order to stir public and international opinion into a war against Cuba.

Terrorism is Operation Condor, which was an intelligence-sharing network used by 6 South American dictators and coordinated by the U.S. to eliminate or disappear tens of thousands of dissidents and enemies.

[yishto]

Historic america and modern america are different.

I agree though.

[ilikewarhammer]

@iiiTOXSICKiii Shit, you made my day. I thought alot of these people who downright idiots.

[ilikewarhammer]

@iiiTOXSICKiii Omg screw my last comment. I cant spell today

[chica476]

@iiiTOXSICKiii

they picked on the Irish too.

:(

[jeesuschrist1]

The whole world should be made aware of what Islam truly is. Islam is as much as a danger as the ignorance about it to future of humanity..

[bbfringe]

what the fuck do your bullshit opinions have to do with farc?

[jeesuschrist1]

"Jihad (holocaust of non-Muslims) is a religious duty imposed by Muslim law for the spread of Islam... Muslims are under obligation to wage war against all non-Muslims" - Encyclopedia Britannica.

[bbfringe]

your brackets right?

[8608412]

I live in Colombia and that video dos not show the true... they are started like guerilla but they are now only drug dialers... they kill the pore and rich for there lands so they can cultivate cocaine, and marihuana and be more rich every day.

But they are losing the war, in the video say that they have an army of 10.000 soldiers, to day they are only 2.000 because they see that beading in the FARC is not the solution to Colombian problems.

[blackhalo117]

There is no fight without two sides to an argument. There is no effort by a government that isn't seen in two different lights. If there is a win, there must be a defeat. Anyone who has read these posts can see people view what the Americans are doing has both wrong and right merits. It is right to protest what is wrong, but one cannot spite all that is right because you see something wrong. The people posting hateful comments are not taking constructive effort here, you are simply spewing hate.

[TeriyakiBoy]

Well said and I fully agree

[MOV13M4ST3R]

KILL ALL TERRORISTS!

[johnnyboy41]

So that would be americas forefathers then

[Iraqendwar]

Our government is full of terrorists...always going around killing people and starting revolutions..aiyi yi. When are we going to NOT intervene with other countries' business.

[trahouston]

"either you are with us or you're with the terrorists" -Bush

Well i guess i'm with the terrorists then, let's start a revolution.

[Tzimnewman3]

"either you are with us or you're with the terrorists" -Bush

He obviously forgot that the US governmnet has been looking after terrorists since September 11th 1973 - Thats Nineteen Seventy Three (73).

Looks like Bush needs to bomb the US first and force regime change in the states before he could go after the others.

By the time they finish the world would be destroyed. Mandela would be executed (Terrorist) along with South Africa for looking after him. Funny old world!

[trahouston]

Forget the patriot act, MLK was labeled a terrorist by the our government and Coretta scott king reported that her telephone was still being tapped and she only died about three years ago. Mandela was just another terrorist according to our governments records, you are right about that.

[vikrantkpr]

title says dining with terrorist and main person says we are not terrorists :-)

Fighting / Taking guns in hand does not sounds long term job

[mostpacifistic]

uhhhhhhh terrorism is terrorism but what we do is not terrorism.

[Malasubidude]

We Americans are the most dangerous terrorist of all.

[SoCalstylez858]

Even King George III of england called the American colonist terrorists.

[HerculesRockefellerr]

Was that before or after King George III failed in his attempt to colonize North America?

[Fellini115]

FARC has 0 support among Colombia's population, even the poor don't follow them.

If a Leftist revolution comes to Colombia it has to be through the vote like in Bolivia, Venezuela, Ecuador, pretty soon El Salvador etc.

[noraerm]

If The FARC fights for the poor ....

Why they take away their land and kill them?

[Gregnor]

Becuse the poor always suffer no matter who is in charge.

[dasoffene]

Is good that the government is not everywhere otherwise there would be more killers :)

[LiesMustStop]

This is an amazing show.

[ogjimkenobi]

I freaking love this series, I find it fascinating.

[HerculesRockefellerr]

The average Columbian HATES Farc! This is as bullshit as fox news.

[six25]

i don't see this as biased as fox news. but i do agree with you that the overwhelming majority of colombians hate farc. i'd guess more than 90% of colombians.

[sumo63]

the US Government has no other business other than poking there nose in each and every country on earth.. They are the 21st Century Colonial ruler just like British,France during 18th,19th and 20th centuries

[y2knoproblem]

It won't be for much longer. USA will come to its knees for ignoring the Constitution and the principles this country was founded on.

[Iraqendwar]

U are absolutely correct. Our government is always going around killing people for resources (oil) as well as starting revolutions...why is that?

[sumo63]

Greed ---- companies need new markets and resources(Capitalism)

Power ---- to have influence over regions..

[beautifulprincessM]

That was a really scary time... 0:30

Because I knew I wasnt with Bush so =\

[madhubran]

Instead of criticizing the journalist, why don't you people look at it as act of bravery to put light on the other side of the story. Anyone would agree that mass production of cocaine and kidnapping are unjust ways of financing the organization.  But that does not give any goverment the right to abandon part of its own people.

[madhubran]

The goverment should address the issue of unequal distribution of wealth and opportunities to try to improve the situation and win over the people so they won't join the rebel. Instead the goverment is ignoring the root causes of these problems and extending war for decades.

[juancsmix]

this was a very light investigation, there isn't anything new coming out of this report, FARC always say the same thing in many other situations so there isn't any light shed on their side of the story... unfortunately colombia and it's complicated geography, together with FARCs constant killing and destruction of any authority (mayors office, police station, etc) specially in weak places, makes it difficult to have govt. presence everywhere...

[micahgee]

This guy has so much balls to do what he does =)

[Naqib777]

Jon Bolton is an asshole

[micahgee]

yes he is

The US is such a liar when it comes to terrorism, considering how involved the US is in PROMOTING terrorism around the world.

If you don't open up your country to US multinationals they will pay terrorists to overthrow the government to put a more pliable client regime in.

Jon Bolton is complicit in MASS MURDER and covering it up

[NewLemurian]

Great journalism!

[bajawind]

nothing more than a power struggle fueled by the militarization of the drug war. good for the industrial military complex and BAD for everybody else.

[juancsmix]

giving FARC the chance of being considered an army of and for the poor through this programme is extremely wrong, irresponsible and ridiculous. I dont care if a journalist went to the jungle and had lunch with a group of guerrilleros, if he considers that having a chat and listening to their lies is grounds to giving them the benefit of the doubt then he should really wake up and start interviewing a lot more people and investigating the reality of the country.

[Damazigh]

The journalist is just asking questions, we are supposed to form an opinion and do more research. Stop blaming the journalist for doing his job in a good and unbiased manner. Just because a FARC guy said he fights for the poor doesn't mean it's true.

[juancsmix]

you can't place the doubt on FARC's supposed altruistic ideals and status as a terrorist group. I do not measure terrorism according to the United States hypocritical definition, but I measure it by reality. I know there are many people around the world with naive and romantic views on revolutionary armed groups, in the case of Colombia and FARC this view is completely wrong, confirmed even by FARC's own soldiers, and confirmed by the reality of the death and destruction they cause.

[ubuibiok]

*****

[R3dp055um]

GOOD report! Very well done, and no more biased than CNN or Fox.

You know, back during the British Mandate in Palestine, when Irgun and Haganah fought against them, the British called those Jewish organisations terrorists, but that magically changed in 1947.

Any *successful* insurgency converts the former insurgents instantly from "terrorists" to "freedom fighters"; you can watch it happening right now in Northern Ireland.

[micahgee]

so true!

Israel was founded on acts of TERROR

[madrid23]

these guys (the Farc) are a bunch of murders. They take money form cocaine barons and buy weapons to kidnap people. If they want equality, they would have the sympathy of the whole world if they would lay down their weapons and fight their struggle through peaceful means and civil disobedience. And this report is so biased. Most people in Columbia hate the Farc. They publicly march against the Farc on a constant basis. This reporter is just looking for a way to bash the U.S.

[annarboriter]

If you knew what you were talking about you might have something to say. The US funded created the extremist FARC that there is today after the moderate element, having formed the (UP) the Patriotic Union Party were systematically assassinated by rightwing paramilitaries squads. Where do you think they got their funding from?

[juancsmix]

ok, you are either drunk or completely misled. FARC had already become a group of criminals and lost all their supposed ideals and purpose before the 80s and before de UP. las FARC are the worst shit in colombia, together with paramilitares and the mentality of getting things the easy way, lies, corruption, etc that exists in colombia.

[RyRyVids]

Kidnapping is not a sustainable way to fund an army for equality.

[americasuck007]

FUCK AMERICA

[trevorabn]

I bet you live in America....stfu, and if you dont live in america, then stfu and deal with the problems your own people have, you have greater problems than America. Notice America was not doing very much to anyone until we were attacked. I bet if you had what we did, and died for to achieve, you would be happy. It is nice going to the store and not being worried about getting blown up. ENJOY your dictator Chavez! I hope your happy, it was your own vote....

[oystersdobleed]

Aside from 9/11 and Pearl harbour, America has never been attacked. And as for "not doing very much", would you care to clarify? i don't call over a century of constant military action "not doing very much". and there has only been one morally justifyable cause (WWII) you have fought in anyway.

[0720541589]

9/11 was an inside job though. They did that to attack Iraq. Not even Afghanistan.

[TECHKLEC]

Fuck you, americasuck007.

[MOV13M4ST3R]

It is so obvious folks to see how jealous this guy is of Americans. He suffers from what I call "America Envy". lol

[americasuck007]

no im not. ur trying to be smart nutcase

[MOV13M4ST3R]

Go look in the mirror. All you will see is America envy in your eyes reflecting jealousy. lol

[americasuck007]

no i dnt see it.

FUCK YOU PIG

[MOV13M4ST3R]

Go look again. Look hard, it's there.

[01Scullyj]

Envious of what?

[MOV13M4ST3R]

Read the threads.
