How come they haven't done anything to overpower the current government? or at least attempt to; & to keep hostages for that long is inhumane.

Do the drink proper tea or herbal tea?
Originally posted by AcapaYespadaWhat? They even call themselves Marxist revolutionaries. They finance their revolution thru the sale of drugs. They have control of half of Columbia! If it weren't for US aid they would have overthrown the Gov't by now.

Originally posted by RedmikeDo you know if they Are Marxists? If not, what are they? The "Jane Reports" say they are. Why would they call themselves Marxists if they're Not? I'm voting for Obama so we will stop our meddling.
No, I'm not saying that at all.
I'm addressing the point someone made that the FARC must be Marxists because they call themselves Marxists.
