Your links are not exactly the source of actual "real" news. ColombiaReports and CounterPunch are right up there with Granma and Pravda when it comes to neutrality.

Anyone with an inkling of what has been going on in Colombia in the last 50+ doesn't believe the hoof-beats they are hearing belong to zebras. They have seen and heard it thousands of times. If the rural poor in Colombia (and now Venezuela) are being harassed, tortured and murdered AGAIN, it is because the same culprit is at it AGAIN.

THAT is what Democrats would discover if they were inclined to research the subject from objective news sources. Not fake ones.
