There is only one way to deal with FARC. Kill the leadership bloodily. Kill their supporters in Venezuela bloodily.
ReplyDeleteUnconditional surrender.
FARC no longer has a safe base in Ecuador. The socialist PM is out. Although it might have a safe base again in 3 to 5 years.
Kill the Venezuelan leadership and FARC will disappear. We are getting near to that point.

Overthrow the narco terrorists in Venezuela. Think it can't happen? Maduro et al are very cozy with Tehran. Is any Jewish lawmaker Demo or Repub going to stand in the way? they might. They won't last long. Only until the next election. Look at Schumer. He is Jewish. He is also a good boy. He said so. If the decision comes to defeat Maduro, he will be on board.
Without Ecuador, Venezuela and a robust drug trade the FARCer won't last long.
