    The Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia, or FARC, was founded five decades ago as a Marxist people's army fighting against capitalist imperialism and Colombia's often-brutal government. And they've been fighting a protracted bloody war ever since. In recent years, FARC has devolved into a guerrilla force that threatens the very people it originally sought to protect. Why? Because in order to secure their dwindling territory and lucrative coca fields, FARC has buried thousands of land mines in civilian areas. Since 1990, there have been over 10,000 land mine victims in Colombia, the second-most in the world behind Afghanistan.
    FARC and the government have been negotiating peace for the past six months, and FARC's potential demobilization could yield a transformative moment in Colombian history. But the scars of 50 years of conflict, and 50 years of land mines, can't be so easily erased. We traveled to Colombia to speak with land mine victims and to see first hand how around 7,000 FARC guerilla have held off over 300,000 Colombian soldiers for so many years.

    There are 2 different Colombias. There's one with high FARC and ELN presence, and the other one that is safe. I have been here for over a year and never, not once, felt threatened. It's a beautiful country and I'm glad to live here. But as I work and live my life here, every day there are clashes between the army and the guerillas. The thing is, you'll never be affected as long as you don't venture into that territory. And one more thing. Before you make a joke about Colombia being a cocaine factory, think of who buys all that cocaine.

    For those who come to see this documentary, this day (23-06-2016) Peace Agreement was signed, this agreement was raised and developed for 4 long years. In this agreement were to agree on 6 points to achieve peace, a comprehensive agrarian reform, participation in politics, drug trafficking and illegal crops, Victims, End of Conflict and verification and non-repetition of the conflict. Colombia has suffered for 50 years, but in Colombia believe and know that peace is development. Colombia has changed dramatically over the past years, Colombia is now an example for Latin America. If you have some question about it, ask me, I will try to answer you. (Sorry if my english is hard to understand)

      It's a grim thought but it could just brew resentment on both sides until it boils over again.

Sadly on his last kidnap while he was active governor he was brutally killed by the guerrillas. Life is not easy as we expect in colombia.

    I went to the jungles of Putumayo and the forests of Saravena in Arauca. I've spoken with Colombian soldiers as they sorted cocaine and smoked marijuana. And I also spoke with FARC rebels. Of course, I wasn't kidnapped by either side, contrary to the speculation that the FARC 'are indiscriminate mass murderers who love and thrive on killing Westerners'.
    Let me tell you; although Colombia needs peace, this video is so one-sided that it should be viewed with serious suspicion. It's sensationalist, and pretends to want to help Colombia but actually hurts the Colombian people by selecting the facts and ignoring others. Vice should be ashamed of themselves.

    The thing with VICE is that they always TEND to show the bad things of situations, but it is understandable because that is what people are looking for, impacting news. I don't like the focus too much on the bad side, but I like the fact that this is being shown to people around the globe from an international perspective. It is also very good, the fact that they are using PROVEN statistics, I am Colombian, and like it or not, this is our story, something we have to fix for future generations...Thx VICE for showing interest in the conflict.

      Well, since I wasn't, then it only serves that they'd show one of the many dark sides, because that dark side is there and is affecting real people, and most of the world never hears about this stuff on any news source.
      So why wouldn't VICE highlight this dark side, especially when VICE is and always have been a source of obscure and controversial information. Do you even know how VICE got it's start?

      That's right, you can't.
      And who the fuck cares if 10 people liked what I wrote, I didn't write it for them, but they certainly ARE those who have a fucking sense of humor and don't mind someone poking fun at someone who just doesn't know their shit.

    El mundo debe saber que el gobierno Colombiano está en la capacidad de acabar militarmente a la guerrilla. Lo que ocurre es que no hay voluntad. Un ejemplo, un día estuve en uno de los combates aéreos de la fuerza aérea Colombiana, cuando llegué a Bogotá a donde vivía, me puse a ver noticias, la noticia era que 10 policías por allá en el Cauca llevaba combatiendo como a 100 guerrilleros durante 9 horas. Dicha noticia me entristeció mucho porque un par de horas antes yo veía 20 helicópteros de guerra estacionados. No hay voluntad. Además los políticos, los gobiernos más bien, no quieren que la guerrilla se acabe para recibir dinero de USA, de algo llamado el plan Colombia.

    • @nicolasfromcolombian
      @nicolasfromcolombian Před 10 lety +5

      Carlos es erroneo pensar que el ejercito pueda acabar la guerrila por el simple hecho de que su fuente no esta en la guerra si no en una serie de factores sociales que son fuente humana de la guerrilla. La desigualdad social combinada con la ausencia estatal hace que se fomente la creación de grupos ilegales por todo Colombia. FARC, BACRIM, ERPAC... mientras el país no cambie de fondo, la guerra no se acaba militarmente. El ejercito al parecer nunca leyó a David Galula.

      No es que existen puesto que su mision es acabat la desigualdad social. El hecho es que esta desigualdad es la que facilita el reclutamiento de personas para la guerrilla, asi como tambien la permanencia de ésta en las diferentes zonas del pais. Solo con observar las zonas con presencia historica de las guerrillas se puede sustentar esta tesis (ej:Choco, Cauca, Casanare...)

    • @nicolasfromcolombian
      @nicolasfromcolombian Před 9 lety +1

      Aunque no entendi bien el punto, y respetando tu pasado como servidor público, solo te digo que dadas las condiciones socials del país es erroneo pensar que la guerrilla se puede acabar militarmente. Sin un trabajo político y social apoyando el trabajo militar (como es propuesto por David Galule) lo único que logrará el ejercito será transformar la guerrilla en algun otro grupo ilegal dirigido por criminales de turno pero formado en su mayoria por gente pobre de lugares abandonados por el gobierno. Gracias.
