There is huge unrest due to drug trade which the FARC has been fighting over 20 years against the oppression by foreign troops. Now the US military has occupied Colombia and will start using Predator drones and Blackwater mercenaries to terrorize the population as they have done in Iraq and Afghanistan |

The FREE TRADE promoted by the Clinton and Bush mafias with Colombia has resulted in 49.2% of the population below the poverty level. Now the military occupation of Colombia by the American military has lost Colombia $7 BILLION in trade with Venezuela and the loss of the oil subsidy President Chavez generously provided causing the population percentage below poverty line to increase and the cost of transportation to increase. Even if the American military adopts gestapo torture tactics it will not stop the resistance of the Colombian population to the American oppression and military expansion. The resistance movement will grow 10 fold and war and death will become the norm. The Clinton and Bush legacy of poverty will grip the Colombian country. The ponzi scheme of FREE TRADE by exporting American jobs to FTAA countries continues to mean poverty and misery for those FTAA countries. The purpose of exporting American jobs to FTAA countries was simply a union busting tactic by the American corporations that has placed America into bankruptcy and FTAA countries into poverty. |
