"Spend a few days in Colombia and you will understand. Spend a few WEEKS in Colombia and you will understand less. Into this morass enters the United States, and so begins George W. Bush's first foreign policy crisis. Military advisers and millions of dollars are already in the country....America is entering a land of shifting alliances, murky allies, unseen and deadly enemies. Violence can come from an infinite number of angles. And, while ideology is important, drug money rules." (GEORGE) The author provides a glimpse into the Colombia drug war and reviews the practices of the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia.
