I would have presumed that all sorts of high-level delegations have been meeting privately with the FARC for several years now in light of its ability to control a substantial portion of Colombian real estate. Coincidently, I plan to post a series of pieces on Colombia over the next month or so. The problem of the FARC-U'wa is something that fits into the general research I have been doing on Marxism and the American Indian. One of the things that should come out of it is a better understanding, that I will be happy to share with others, about Colombian politics and history.
