(September 20, 2007) The Colombian FARC is one of the oldest and best equipped insurgencies in the world. They've kidnapped hundreds of people, sometimes holding them for a decade or more. When one man walked across the nation in protest, a million Colombians joined in. Now, Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez has offered to negotiate with the FARC - an offer refused by Colombian President Uribe.
