Body of Colombian Governor Found


State officials gave notice Tuesday that the body of state governor, Luis Francisco Cuéllar was indeed found. The Caqueta leftist governor was abducted by a commando of 8 to 10 leftist FARC guerillas from his home in Florencia late Monday.

Uribe rejected political negotiations with the FARC, Latin America's oldest and longest-fighting rebel force. The rebel group has an estimated 7,000 fighters and has been trying to overthrow the government since the 1960s.

The tragedy marks the country’s first major political kidnapping in years.

Uhh, why do you eco the Uribe accusations about it having been the FARC? Just because a narco president says it, it doesn't mean its right. This can very well be an excuse to unleash the military and paramilitary to murder thousands of people who do not agree with that corrupted President.
For news "agencies" like yours, only what US allies say counts as truth, no matter if it isn't, you're not interested in even knowing it, as long as it serves your own agenda and purpose. You make me sick. Now this terrorist president will not go necessarily behind the FARC as he claims too, he is irresponsably risking the life of those he claims to rescue. BS

This murder and many other Terrorist Acts are very stupid on the part of the FARC.

They have always being very stupid !

Why the FARC leaders won't surrender :

They were offered a Great Peace by Andres Pastrana 10 years ago.

They could have retired as Pashas, Satraps or Princes living the Great Life in Europe : playing roulette in Monte Carlo all day, and bathing with Bikini Girls in the Cote d'Azur.

They preferred being the bully, the murderer, the thief, the kidnapper, the killer of Peasant Children ( or maiming them ) with land mines.

They preferred to be the Masters of Lifes and Properties. Total Masters of many slaves.

They preferred to throw gas cylinders over the houses of the poorest people of the country, burning the houses of very old and sick folks.

They preferred to burn straw churches with Black people inside. They preferred to burn the poorest ramshackles next to oil pipes or oleoducts.

They preferred to be terrorists killing dozens of people with a single coward bomb in the poorest places.

Having being such idiots, how can they sign a peace that would be less generous that what they despised 10 years ago ??

The guerrillas, who finance their operations through drugs trafficking, were thought to number some 16,000 fighters, but analysts suggest their ranks have fallen to about 9,000.
