James McEnteer: Colombia’s Laboratory of Failure
go to story
“Colombia has been a laboratory for the failure of corporate over human values. Under cover of a war on drugs, the United States has fueled the flames of civil war, supplying a huge arsenal of U.S.-supplied weaponry to a burgeoning military and often unaccountable paramilitary forces. Drug traffic has only increased… Tens of millions of Colombians suffer repression and terror by their own government, supported by the United States. Not just alienation, but violence and disappearances without judicial redress, are daily facts of life” – McEnteer in CounterPunch
