My Comment: Documents from Farc details Venezuela's interference in Collombia's affairs, money and arms to Bolivia, alliances with the Communist dictatorship in Cuba, nationalizing (confiscating) foreign and U.S. companies, limiting press freedoms, setting up pro-chavez neighborhood watches .... yup .... you are going to be watched.
