Every year the U.S. sends upwards of 600 million dollars to the Colombian military and you will be pleased to hear that they are spending it very economically. Other foreign governments might waste your hard earned cash on expensive new technologies to deal with the “potential future guerilla” threat, but Alvaro Uribe's lean and mean armed forces are pretty much just hacking up small children with machetes.
And naturally they're lying about it: "The government as recently as last year suggested the massacre was the work of Colombia's biggest left-wing rebel group, known as the FARC."
