A-Infos (en) Anarkismo.net: Peace for Colombia by Javier Orozco Peñaranda (ca) [machine translation]

Time for a bilateral ceasefire, as the noise of shelling and gunfire and the screams of 
the victims were not allowed to talk, and it is imperative to address and resolve the 
structural problems that fuel the Colombian war. ---- Peace for Colombia ... ---- Hope 
arouses the notice of initiation of the "exploratory talks" in Havana, between the FARC 
and the Colombian government led by Juan Manuel Santos Calderon. Should also realize them 
with the ELN and the EPL. ---- These approaches prove the failure of the proposed military 
defeat of the guerrillas devised by the U.S. government, known as Plan Colombia. Over ten 
years of a high-intensity war, with latest equipment technology, and advised by experts to 
be financed, leaving a balance of serious violations of human rights of the civilian 
population that remains resistant wild-organized capitalism and down some senior of the 
insurgency, especially the emerging leaves very beaten rule of law.

Neither propaganda nor the huge armed apparatus, managed to defeat meant industrial and 
military power of the empire and the most violent of the oligarchy.

Time for a bilateral ceasefire, as the noise of shelling and gunfire and the screams of 
the victims were not allowed to talk, and it is imperative to address and resolve the 
structural problems that fuel the Colombian war.

Issues such as political exclusion of the green left, the unequal and violent 
concentration of land ownership, income and income in a few hands, the extermination of 
indigenous and black communities to make way for monoculture projects and multinational 
mining ... and impunity, of course.

To talk peace with social justice, which is the only peace with the possibility of being 
laid will be necessary to review the economic and property rights, erected by monopolies 
untouchable. For example, a profound agrarian reform urgent, and that can only be 
successfully pushing the fabric of social organizations, in spite of the dirty war, 
Colombia still has.

Colombia's peace is peace in South America. But we must be realistic. The "masters of the 
country" will be in peace "other business opportunity", or there will be no peace.

And that is the dam must break with social mobilization, parallel talks with the 
government insurgency.
