@Intothestorm: I wish the same for Colombians as well. I hope they manage to eradicate evil terrorist groups thru sensible agreements and deal with political differences without having to fear for their lives as it´s been the case with the actions of the FARC criminals.

Yeah
It's not an easy process
But it's more than a dream
It's about to be real
And I'm expecting the best

@Intothestorm: Voting NO was sending things in the righ direction. They also hope for the best.

If he can make it stick, he'll be a miracle worker. Just to have gotten this far is marvellous & well-deserving of the Nobel

That "prestigious" prize has been a joke for years.

Santos manipulated an agreement favouring terrorists who committed heinous crimes awarding them with seats in the congress withoug being elected, going against the constitution, money for their activities ( even though they are the biggest drug cartel and have billions of dollars product of their criminal activities ) and total impunity. 👎

You are from Colombia and know better, and I do not deny that Santos seems to look for peace, but I cannot help thinking that it is the Colombian people who voted NO in the referendum who should have been awarded.

I completely agree with you, Cierzo.

@Intothestorm: This simply was NOT the way. And Colombians made that very clear. If FARC is willing to stop their criminals activities and act accordingly, pay for their crimes and to their victims then Colombians will be willing to give them a chance provided all constitutional protections are respected.

Remember there cannot be peace where injustice is present.

A high price to pay to live in peace

@Intothestorm: No. Hasty, biased agreements like the one that was rejected are a high price with disastrous consequences.

The campaign brainwashed people into thinking it was the only way without showing them the dark sinister side.
