The news that the Colombian army stood by while right-wing paramilitary units massacred villagers will, paradoxically, have the effect of drawing us closer into the conflict. Down the slippery slope we go, and where we stop nobody wants to know. . . . This is a bi partisan quagmire, brought to you by the Clinton administration in alliance with a Republican majority in both houses of Congress. Pat Buchanan has yet to make a statement. Ralph Nader talks in fuzzy generalities, never naming names or giving examples of concrete foreign policy proposals.
Time is short.
It is now, or never.
