Is the U.S. military involved in mass murder in Colombia?
I just opened this for discussion in the GD Forum--the massacre in La Macarena, Colombia, in close proximity to U.S./Colombian joint military operations. I think it requires general discussion. It is extremely disturbing, not only that 2,000 people were murdered, but also that the U.S. military might have been involved.

1. I don't understand why the thread was moved when it was about US policy?
Anyway, the very disturbing thing is that the massacre dates seem to be the same as the coordination dates. :(

2. It was removed because i used Global Research as a link to a quote.
The Mods let me know that they don't permit linking to that site. I don't know why GR is banned, but I will be reposting my topic in GD this morning, with a different link to that quote--its original source.

I should have used the original source anyway, and the Mods did me a favor, actually, cuz I had made a rather large typo mistake on the amount of U.S. aid to Colombia. (It's funny how you can lose perspective on zeros, when dollar amounts get into the multi-millions, billions and trillions--mindboggling amounts of money.)

I will PM you when I re-post it. Thanks for noticing!
