Colombia Determination and Certification of Colombian Armed Forces with Respect by Alan Spector 03 May 2002 15:14 UTC |

Colin Powell is certifying the Colombian Armed Forces as "meeting" the
human rights requirements.
This is obviously part of the set up to involve the US in deeper military
activity in South America. Already they have decreed that the "leftist
guerillas" are "terrorists". Now they are certifying the armed forces as
anti-terrorist, despite the fact that the armed forces have killed many more
civilians than the "leftist guerillas."
The increasingly bold military moves by the US government exposes a
weakness, as they can "no longer continue to rule the world in the old way" to
paraphrase an old saying and now have to resort more and more to blatant
military force. However, the plague of nationalism, from South America to South
Asia continues to divert the hundreds of millions of angry oppressed people away
from the struggle to eliminate the profit system, and instead into various
struggles,sometimes heroic, that will lead back into the trap of capitalism with
new leaders. For now.
If it were easy, it wouldn't be called a "struggle."
