Rebels rocket Colombian military base

It's a war 40 years old that has claimed 200,000 lives or more. Yet the media still insists that the Marxist terrrorists in Columbia are the quaintly called "rebels." This despite a description of their methods that include this.
Tuesday's attack was FARC's bloodiest since Feb. 14, 2003, when rebels wired a house in the southern city of Neiva with explosives and detonated it as police entered, killing 17 people, including nine police officers.

What the media does not tell you is that most of the victims of FARC have been civilians, just as the victims in Iraq have largely been civilian, just as the victims in Israel have largely been civilian.

You wonder where the Globe and Mail gets this crud? Check the source. It's an Associated Press story. Brought to them by American newpapers that own the AP.
Canadian newspaper Globe and Mail were probably surprised at the Idiotarian poll they conducted today which asked, "Should Canada deport terrorist suspects and illegal aliens back to countries where they might be tortured?"

I am as surprised as the editors were that despite their best efforts to make Canadians wishy washy and pro-terrorism, the results were sadly askew. At last look:

YES 14502 votes (85 %)
No 2500 votes (15 %)
