Almost half of the approximately 8,000 fighters in the FARC were recruited by the rebel group as minors, according to a university study on Colombia’s largest guerrilla organization.

After studying official and FARC documents, and interviewing guerrilla deserters, the Bogota-based Sergio Arboleda university concluded that 47% of the FARC’s current fighters entered the group when they were still under 18.

According to the Geneva conventions, the recruitment of fighters under 18 is a war crime.

Guerrilla recruitment of minors most prevalent in remote areas with potential mining activities and particularly focused on recruiting children of Colombia’s indigenous minority, Fajardo’s report claimed.

2. And those FARC ASSHOLES have the gall to say that they never committed crimes against humanity

How can any of the naive militant leftists in this forum even somewhat defend these terrorists?
