On August 29, a former senior commander of the dissolved FARC rebel army announced that he and his supporters are taking up arms again for a struggle against Colombia’s government.
“We are announcing to the world that the second Marquetalia has begun,” Ivan Marquez said in a video posted on YouTube, referring to a rural enclave considered a birthplace of the FARC in the 1960s.
Marquez accused the government of betraying the peace process under which most of the FARC’s 7,000 fighters had laid down their weapons after half a century of armed conflict. The commander said the government had cheated in the implementation of the accord, including unilaterally changing its wording and failing to provide legal guarantees for former fighters.
He said that this “forced us to return to the field”.
“We were never defeated ideologically. Therefore, the fight continues,” Marquez said.
Colombia’s President Ivan Duque answered to this move by saying that he would send a special army unit to hunt down Marquez and his supporters, who he said were backed by Venezuela’s President Nicolas Maduro.
International solidarity with comrade Ivan Marquez. When there is no alternative, if not your death and that of your people, peace is suicide. I am for the war. Victorio chief Apache
Well said, you’re actually for the liberation of Colombia.
Rebels can win the war only by winning the hearts of the people.
There can be no peace with the imperial lackey narco terror regime disguised as government in Colombia. Speaking of narco, funny how the Yanks accuse the Venezuelan government of being a narco state. Yet the U.S. has about seven bases with their military personnel in Colombia, and yet the drug trade continues unabated in that violent hell hole. I guess its similar thing in Afghanistan, with bumper crops of opium onder the nose of their military. America war on terror and drugs, yet behind the rhetoric the support terror and drugs.
Wherever CIA and US military have a strong presence, drugs and refugees flow. FARC never should have demobilized in the first place.
One must agree with that.
You hit these bulls eyes. “There can be no peace with the imperial lackey narco terror regime disguised as government in Colombia.” I’d say that Escobar was CIA’s guy too, they put him there to destabilize country ultimately. Everything you said I can say just that I agree.
The only way to topple the Hispanic-supremacist-bigots of Colombia is to tear down the Israeli-friendly Hispanic-government and give the whip back to the Indians and hold over the Hispanic population. People in Germany and Serbia and Ireland and Syria and Palestine need to do the same. Indigenous rights for indigenous people. No foreigner should have any power or sway or right to decide the future of that land they occupy. https://i2.wp.com/unitedisrael.org/wp-content/uploads/2016/05/KhazarMap.jpg?resize=600%2C527&ssl=1
The “hispanic” people are no foreigners in Southamerica
Yes, that’s right.
The Hispanic people stole the land and genocided the Indians. Anyone who speaks Spanish (which is the language of occupation) is the same as speaking Hebrew in Palestine. There were no Hispanics 500 years ago, only Indians. Guess who’s land the Hispanics have been stealing?
Hundreds of years ago you would be right with your comparision, but now the “hispanic” people dont have double nstionality, and became local peoples you like it or not. All of my grand parents were born in this continent and most of my grand grand parents too. Eventhough the conquest was a tragedy for humanity, now it is what it is and if you pretend to fight with that you end up taking a lot of inocent peoples rights, just like what is happening in Southafrica
The only solution for Colombia is to defeat the zionazis narco state lackeys – nothing else works. The US is in Colombia – just like in Afghanistan – in order to control and promote the drug trade. Regardless FARC and any resistance movement can never trust a state that is backed by the US zionazis.
