Neither surprised nor distressed

CIA 'helped Colombia Farc attacks,' says BBC.

The FARC are smoldering remnants of a global wildfire that could still flare up again, though for now they pose a threat to America that is hard to rank, say, against al-Qaeda.

And yet they could in the end be more annoying as a legal opposition.

Difficult to say, just as it is difficult to say whether they are more threat than hopeful sign for the people of Columbia.

They will certainly shift the political center of gravity of that country to the left.

More and better medical care for all?

A slide toward party dictatorship and ruthless repression of opposition?
