Introduction Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia (FARC) was formed in 1964 with the aim of being the military supporter for the Colombian party and it is the first and biggest military of Latin America, they are most competent and well-operational rebellion of Marxist objectives currently. The FARC mainly functions in Colombia and is involved in logistics, weapons possession, extortion and kidnappings which are reported in the bordering countries. This paper discusses the history, notable attacks, threats to the United States and Tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTPs). History The starting points of FARC can be found to have been motivated by Colombian era called “The Violence” or La Violencia (1948-1958) which started after the killing of George Gaitan who wanted to vie for presidential position and strong liberal organizer who protested for the rights of the landless people in Colombia. La Violencia was a huge and cruel fight between the pro-reform liberals and Conservatives who were funded by influential landlords and business people who wished to preserve a sturdy association between the state and church. Throughout this period, there were reports that above 250,000 people died in the war (Corrales and Penfold 176). In safeguarding their rights, the poor people joined self-protection groupings creating rural communities called during that time “Independent Republics,” situated mostly in South Colombia where most of them lived. FARC was an accumulation of these alliances, and endured La Violencia through resisting wealthy conservative, currently called autodefensa, who walked all over the rural areas committing violence against rural residents and they were supported by rich and influential landlords and businesspeople. After the reunion of both parties in 1958, La Violencia ended and they settled on the power-sharing accord for 20 years. In 1964, around 15,000 militants of the established government assaulted the “Independent Republics” through air and land attacks, but several sites had already been deserted and guerilla affiliates had taken shelter in the hills in southern parts of the country (Tate 167). At the end of that year, the FARC was officially launched, derived on Marxist ideas, as Colombian Communist Party’s military arm and it was cheered by Pedro Marin. Over 150 Americans have been kidnapped since 1985, where 13 of them have been killed and FARC is responsible for these offenses. In most parts of 2001, human rights organizations in Colombia reported 198 murder cases along with numerous kidnappings which they blamed FARC (Tate 168). In Mid 2002, 13 Colombian policymakers were kidnapped by FARC in Valle and additionally, many Colombian administrators experienced these kidnappings, among them, was Ingrid Betancourt who was then-presidential aspirant and five congressmen. FARC has used several ways to provide funds for its operations and most evidently by its involvement in the cocaine business and it has worked as mafia in remote regions of Colombia where they demand businesses to contribute a certain amount for their security against any theft. FARC has also obtained funding from outside countries like Cuba. In 2008, news came out, based on computers from the FARC site, that Hugo Chavez, Venezuelan president, had implemented a tactical association with FARC to weaken the
