Colombian rebels release nine hostages

Colombia's second largest rebel group, the ELN, freed nine hostages in a rural southern province after holding them for more than two weeks.

The release came as President Alvaro Uribe and the country's largest rebel group, the FARC, remained deadlocked over a deal to free scores of their hostages, including French Colombian politician Ingrid Betancourt and three Americans held for more than five years.

The hostages were released to a commission from the Red Cross in Narino province close to Ecuador's border, a spokesman for the international agency said.

"During the afternoon, the people who were captured 14 days ago were released," Samaniego municipality mayor, Yamile Montenegro, told reporters.

Violence from Colombia's four-decade-old conflict has eased under President Alvaro Uribe, a Washington ally who has received billions in US aid to fight cocaine traffickers and Marxist rebels involved in Latin America's oldest insurgency.

But FARC - the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia - is still fighting in rural areas and authorities say it is holding around 700 hostages for ransom and political leverage, including around 45 they want to swap for jailed rebels.

Venezuela's President Hugo Chavez recently brokered the release of two high-profile FARC hostages, though a dispute over his role in negotiations has fuelled tensions with Uribe.

Families of kidnap victims hope that release could signal the freeing of other FARC hostages.

The ELN, or National Liberation Army, is involved in fledging peace talks with Uribe's government, but little progress has been made to determine key elements to any accord.

TERROR....POVERTY....ANSWER IS OUR LIFE

COMMUNIQUE OF ELN COLOMBIA

He said the Commander Jaime Bateman Cayon that the revolution has to be a party, talking about holidays today in our country, we affirm that reason, while those of the Christmas season are not as a revolutionary party. But despite the pain and horror that breathes our people on a daily basis, these people, our people are still overflowing joy to each and every cry cry, because our country still suffered, it is, let alone born for joy.

So today we despite being limited our freedom, but by appealing to the right to madness and joy, we strongly welcome the Colombian people and especially our National Liberation Army, with their fighters, militants, commanders and friends, make the dream a pretty revolutionary and sensible way of living.

We are completing another year of struggle, of actual delivery, claiming it fair, is approaching a new year will be to continue to resist, to continue building roads labren hopes.

No matter that terror and misery pútrida seek to impose their fragrance, our response is and will always be the LIFE.

So today, taking advantage of that by now everything seems party, we intend to tell us that they listen to the joy endures and is played as a true human rezón still have to be very, sacrifice and will be increasing our war against lie every day will have to be more consistent and determined.

We take this time of reflection and rejoicing for our projects and continue drawing labrando our tasks, to deepen the struggle of the masses to further consolidate the opposition bloc and alternatives Latin American resistance, to channel our energies in the fight against forceful and unyielding our real enemy class, but also to continue providing proposals to dignify the existence, to open paths to peace with social justice, which will require the first to overcome the usurpers of joy.

Today, political prisoners, prisoners of war Colectivo Julia Companion of the National Liberation Army RATIFICAMOS (well capitalized) indestructible our commitment, our belief in our struggle certainty that not abdicate our status as warriors, but instead atraparemos us everything that we be useful to the revolution and desecharemos every day all that denies our ability to new men.

Not one step back, release or death.
For a country to reach our dreams.
Breaking chains, tumbando walls, building horizons for a New Colombia.

ELN COLOMBIA -The Biocombustibles of Eco genocide

Translated version




From the prognoses that indicate the aim of the oil production at international level - in next the 15 to 20 years, the Bush administration sets out to expand the biocombustibles significantly to reduce its dependency of foreign petroleum, considering that the United States concerns the 61 percent of the crude one which it consumes, to a cost of 75 trillions of annual dollars.

At the moment, the agricultural earth area in the Union is of about 625 thousand square acres, reason why to reach the demand of oil after biocombustibles would require 1.4 million square miles of maize for ethanol and about 8.8 million square kilometers of soybean for biodiesel.

The soybean, at the present time is the main power culture for the production of biodiésel in that country. Nevertheless, near a 1.5 percent of the harvest it produces only 68 million gallons of biodiésel, equivalent to less of the one percent of the gasoline consumption in all U.S.A. According to specialists, if the totality of that harvest were destined to the production of biodiésel, single would reach to cover a six percent with the national demand.

The United States never would be able then to produce biomass sufficient to satisfy their appetite with energy. However, cultures with power aims are seeded to the south of the Latin American continent. Great cane plantations of sugar, African palm and soybean are supplanting extensive areas of food cultures, of forests, pastizales, Pampas… in Brazil, Argentina, Colombia, Ecuador and Paraguay. The culture of the soybean has caused, to date, the deforestation of 21 million hectares of forests in Brazil, of 14 million hectares dedicated to food for the cattle in Argentina and of two million in Paraguay. In answer to the pressure of the global market, next it is expected, single in Brazilian ground, the additional deforestation of 60 million hectares. From 1995 the total of earth destined to the production of soybean in Brazil was increased in a 3.2 annual percent (320 thousand hectares per year); today the soybean - together to the sugar cane they occupy a 21 percent of the total of cultivateable area in that country.

In Paraguay, this product occupies more of the 25 percent of all agricultural Earth, simultaneously that the extensive deforestation has accompanied this expansion. For example, good part of the Paraguayan Atlantic forest has been deforested, partly, for its culture.

Also, great indices of erosion accompany their production, specially in areas where long cycles of rotation of cultures are not implemented. Esteem that in Brazil and Argentina the averages of loss of ground are between the 19 and 30 tons by hectare. In that second South American nation the intensive culture of soybean is causing a massive exhaustion of the nutrients of the ground simultaneously that - in agreement to experts, the continued production of this product has brought with himself the loss of a million metric tons of nitrogen and 227 thousand tons metric of phosphorus at national level. Numbers that speak in case single about which a new destiny, but echo-genocida, considers for great population groups of our continent. To decide if to inject food in the fuel tanks of 800 million American automobiles, or to make it more accessible to the stomachs of, practically, more than three billion human beings of the orb, is a insoslayable problem that many governments are not analyzing seriously and .reason.
