This report has to be joke of century. Maybe joke of 2 centuries. United States fighting left-ist forces in Columbia. Even children in elementary school are taught more reason than this. After 10 years of negotiation -- mostly due of the blockage made by US Congress that limits this operation to 800 military and 600 civilian contractors in a country that has 66% of it's economy run by cocaine and heroin criminals -- right across US border with Mexico in broad-day-light ... anyone can see through their obvious lies. Now big brains are claiming to be fighting "left-ism" -- namely fighting between themselves in Washingon DC. There are more left-ists per capita in Washington DC than in little Columbia. Ultimate hypocricy. Can US prove it's drug lies again in little Columbia? How much more American tax money will be transfered to Columbian Rich and Wealthy in their secret Swiss bank accounts -- in the fraudulent name of fighting left-ism and helping poor with agricultural subsidies? Peace.

If i were any of the Latin American countries i would banish all contact with the U.S. unless the citizens and free minded individuals wish to have all there rights striped and rampage like communities within there own lands. This so called building of military installations is just a forefront for the ultimate invasion of Venezuela and the downfall of Chavez himself. Moreover, Colombia needs to open there eyes and Russia must stay vigilant towards the U.S. God help us all from those evil sons of guns in the Federal Reserve, to hell with Rockefeller and Kissinger!

The Americans created the Golden Triangle (Burma) and the Golden (Crescent) in Afghanistan, the cocaine and some oil there is precious commodity to be used by Left Wing, as well the Cuban example of life with dignity is spreading and establishing itself exceptionally well, and has given hopes that tentacles of octopus may be trimmed, but these day they have no been able to operate their death squads and torture business ala Don Mitrione , the Iraqi business has been a distraction, and Iran is poor choice for any adventures , may the bases there are badly needed for a new waves of carnage and slaughter, to keep communism at bay with China leading the word economically and Cuba leading the South America away from servile Banana Republic Stereo Type
