Colombia Three and the stench of hypocrisy

ISN’T it great that we can rejoice at the acquittal of the Colombia Three?

We ignore the coincidence that while they were ‘touring’ Farc-controlled areas using false passports, the rebels there began using IRA-style car bombing and mortaring innocent civilians similar to the atrocities inflicted on our own Northern population.

Innocent blood, whether spilt on the streets of Omagh, Colombia or Madrid, will always cry to heaven for vengeance and we shake hands with the devil at our peril, even when it is politically expedient to do so.
