Refereeing the Colombia Standoff

Posted by Matt in March 6th, 2008

The escalating crisis between Colombia and its neighbors is more than just a case of Andean road rage. It exposes volatile political fault lines not seen in the Americas in a generation. On one side stand President Bush and regional allies led by conservative Colombian President Alvaro Uribe, whose army is accused of invading Ecuador last weekend to kill a Marxist guerrilla boss. Against them stand Venezuela’s left-wing President Hugo Chavez, whom Uribe accuses of sponsoring those rebels, and friends such as Ecuador’s President Rafael Correa.

School of the Americas 2 - clip from Plan Colombia
Well this small part Of the drug war failure is absolutely essential to get our poin across. Part of our South-America project. Colombia is synonymous with drug trafficking, with the country earning an enormous amount of money every year by shipping its illegal wares to the USA. But the American government has been engaged in a lengthy battle to stop the Colombian drug barons from trading with their country...or have they? Filmmakers Gerard Ungerman and Audrey Brohey take a look at the government's efforts to quash trading with Colombia, and find some surprisingly lax activities taking place. Commentators such as Noam Chomsky and Senator Paul Wellstone are brought into the picture to explain why this might be occurring, with a particular focus on the lucrative oil resources that Colombia...

History of Colombian Civil War/Internal Conflict
A clip from the 2003 documentary "Plan Colombia: Cashing in on the Drug War Failure" giving a brief history of the Colombian civil war/internal conflict, from how it began to contemporary days. PLOT DESCRIPTION Directed by Gerard Ungerman, Plan Colombia: Cashing in on the Drug War Failure documents what many believe to be dangerous hypocrisy on the part of the American government. The film gives particular attention to the reasons behind the drug trade (Colombia is the world's biggest cocaine exporter), which include illegal trade funded by radicals, the corrupt government, and the simple fact that most farmers harvest coca because they can't survive on the profits of legitimate food crops. Ungerman also explores the link to America's notorious School of the Americas in Georgia and how...

Latin Pulse: Colombia - Venezuela Relations
For more episodes and other Link TV programs: http://www.linktv.org/originalseries Tensions are growing between one of America's strongest Latin American allies and one of its foes. Will Colombia ever be able to pacify a guerrilla movement with a forty years history of violence? Or will the U.S. have to continue to pour billions of dollars to prop them up? Colombia's once friendly relationship with neighboring Venezuela is now strained. Venezuela claims the U.S. government is promoting violence in the region to advance Washington's own agenda. For close to half a century Colombia has struggled with internal unrest. Violence in some parts of the country is not only rampant, but has become a way of life. At the root is the guerrilla movement suspected of being financed by drug money;...
