European Parliament VP is a FARC friend: Uribe
Monday, 18 July 2011 14:57

Colombian ex-President Alvaro Uribe on Monday accused one of the vice presidents of the European Parliament of being friends with the leftist rebel group FARC.

“Isabelle Durant, European parliament, is abusive because of her friendships with the FARC,” Uribe said on Twitter.

The former president’s comments were made in response to an El Espectador interview in which Durant said it was "impossible" Uribe was unaware of the illegal wiretapping of Supreme Court magistrates and his political opponents.

At the time of the interceptions, the DAS reported directly to the Presidency. The former head of state is currently under investigation by a congressional commission for his involvement in the scandal and claims the illegal wiretapping was carried out behind his back.

1. Psychopathic. "Everybody who opposes me is a terrorist"--Alvaro Uribe
That's what he said.

Trade unionists.
Human rights workers.
Teachers.
Community activists.
Peasant farmers.
Academics.
Students.
Journalists.
Political leftists.
judges.
Prosecutors.
European Union vice presidents.

And he went further. He spied on them all and turned "lists" over to the death squads--for assassination, or for death threats and other intimidation

Your photo says it all: Psychopath Meets Psychopath.
