11. terrorism

FARC took responsibility for blowing up Asuncion´s sherriff´s house (killing not him but his wife, pets, 3 of his children and 2 of his grand-children) a few weeks ago in Paraguay. I live in relatively calm Buenos Aires, and a few months ago the police had a shoot-out with ranking members of the Sinaloa cartel (in Argentina!) in BA´s swank northern suburbs. I´d say the drugs and terrorists have already spread throughout Soth America.

13. Well, we would have to know the true backers/creators of FARC, wouldn't we?

I mean, Al-Qaeda takes responsibility for many things but who really is behind that so-called organization?

5. Aircraft is a Boeing 737

Definitely 104 passengers registered...

[WeDidIt]

6. Will blow up plane if President Caderon doesn't speak to them

At least two, maybe more hijackers.

[WeDidIt]

7. Three hijackers confirmed, at least one is Bolivian

Have a brown box they claim is a bomb.

8. LEtting some pasengers off plane

9. Problem, Reaction, Solution

Sorry I know I am being cynical, but, my first thoughts about this are is it a problem, reaction, solution event to further move along policies which reflect the proposed North American Union?

[WeDidIt]

10. 100 people have been released

Woohoo!

[WeDidIt]

12. At least eight suspects now in custody...

[nadinbrzezinski]

14. When this is said and done, after debriefing

I am almost betting on FARC
