The Colombian army seized on Thursday an arsenal belonging to the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia (FARC). The weapons allegedly come from the Venezuelan Armed Forces. The military operation was carried out in the Colombian department of Arauca (eastern Colombia), near the border with Venezuela, an official spokesman said on Thursday.

Gen. Jaime Reyes, commander of Colombian Army's 18th Brigade, said that a total of 17 rifles, 42,000 cartridges and 195 camouflage uniforms were found. They have a seal of the Venezuelan Military Industries Company (CAVIM), DPA reported.

Reyes said that the arsenal was planned to be delivered to several FARC fronts.

There were no arrests in the raid, official sources said.

2. Can't possibly be true

After all, residents of the Chavista treehouse have long been flinging crap at anyone who suggests that Venezuelan arms have been finding their way to the FARC.

And they should know, right?

Undoubtedly this is just more evidence of the media conspiracy against the government of Venezuela.
