Dear Rick, Attached please find a picture of 15 year old combatants in Colombia that the FARC guerrilla has recruited. The FARC are known for forcing, slaving and recruiting teens into their ranks. Now, the disturbing part of this picture as you can see, is the 5 year old girl carrying a M-4 rifle, besides sexual abuse to minors, I think this is one of the lowest forms of child abuse that I can find. Obviously as you know President Chavez, defends and have publicly said that the FARC are not terrorist and that they are only insurgents. I recently obtained this picture from a well know Colombian Newspaper called El Espectador. The picture is official and was found by Colombian Police in the laptop of a FARC commander that was recently killed or arrested in the mountains of Colombia. I sent this picture with the link to the website where I got it from two weeks ago, however I received a notice from CNN that they were not able to process the file. Regards, Henry 305-588-8045
