The Guerrilla War is the nightmare of the bourgeois, oligarchs and capitalists because they know that the vast majority of the people; the poor, take revolutionary consciousness and up she rises with the rifle to oppose violence just to the unjust violence is like that of the volcano lava That is on a rampage and lay waste with this fossilized regime that does not bring more than so much hunger, poverty, exploitation, oppression of the poor people.https://virungamountains.org
I’m a guerrilla fighter of the people’s army
Natalia Narváez, compared with 19, block Martin Knight.
At the age of 15 years I got into the ranks of the farc-EP. My desires of child was to be professional university and graduate in the career of medicine. Unfortunately, my parents weren’t the best economic resources and hardly studied until seventh grade of high school.
We lived in a village called loma dry of the municipality of codazzi, Caesar. My parents of peasant origin they sowed Pope, mora and vegetables, also some poppy since this product had more trade and best price. In addition, the route and means of transport were precarious, which made it difficult to get any market square agricultural products they produced.
Some day, my 17-Year-old sister and I decided to enter the guerrillas, since in civilian life what the future gave us was to work as domestic workers and other tasks that do not reward the sacrifice of any woman, on the contrary we Maintains humiliated and exploited.
My reasons for joining the ranks were to see the misery that he lives in our village; the excessive exploitation of our natural resources; the abandonment by the state; the social inequality; the hit-and-the repression by the regime and the rulers of shift Elected with the votes of the people… There are countless injustices. That takes him to a to take up arms to defend ourselves against this system.
In the region was presence the guerrillas. They were very appreciated by the population, because with their behavior they won the heart and the awareness of children, the elderly and young people. They invited me and I accept to go to fight.
In The course of the revolutionary struggle I’ve lived some painful situations, such as the death of my father in March 2003, at the hands of troops from the high mountain battalion no. 7, installed in loma dry, perijá mountains, municipality Of codazzi, Caesar. He was killed infamously along with 4 other humble peasant farmers of the area, making them happen as guerrillas killed in combat low, in compliance with the macabre plan of state terrorism, baptized wickedly as false positives.
In January of 2012, I had to face a new disgrace, the loss of my sister Stella, dead in a criminal bombing carried out by the air force on the sidewalk the flowers, Corregimiento Savannah Steer, municipality of the jagua de ibirico, Cesar. She was captured badly injured and still being alive was vilely topped. For this reason they never wanted to give you the body to my mother, they didn’t want to move his begging, nothing worth actions brought by the lawyers, she was buried as nn and until the day of today we do not know the whereabouts of his body.
These are facts that mark forever our lives and in virtually every guerrilla there are similar stories. And yet the police of a state does not recognize that we are victims of the conflict, what more do you want?
Are hard evidence that moved on thanks to our unwavering moral combative and I very much encouraged to feel the unconditional support of our masses, the people that want us and we collaborate in spite of all the adversities, that you see in us a hope of social change. That admiration of our friends and even those who have hardly had a chance to treat us, that’s the one that gives us strength to face this enemy cruel and bloodthirsty, who throws bombs without compassion to disappear from the map, forgetting that we are also daughters of the same people , sisters of policarpa and manuelita and that in our eyes shines the feeling of love to the people, the motherland.
After almost 15 years of active militant, I am convinced that our cause is just. Here in the farc guerrilla the ep we prepare from day to day in all the fields: ideological, political, military and cultural, as well as in the skills that are necessary for the advancement of our process.
They give us many opportunities, here there is no discrimination against women, we are not harassed or physically abused. We all have the same rights and duties, although sometimes can we consider a bit by the conditions of the fight. What if we never lack is the respect, the love, solidarity and mutual support of the entire collective.
I am proud of the fight for peace with social justice. This will not be a pipe dream but a reality.
Keep supporting us and organizing in all forms of struggle.
So long, we shall overcome.https://virungamountains.org

This is a constant practice who commit the torturers and mercenaries of the bourgeoisie against the revolutionaries and social fighters in their desperate resistance to disappear as class (the bourgeoisie) which is currently a parasite that only brings calamities to poor people.

Women and leadership
The role of women in organizational leadership has been transformed in the last few years in a positive way, but unfortunately there is still a lot. Even considering that the scenarios are open to their inputs and active participation, really the objective conditions prevent these leadership that arise in the scenarios of social transformation.https://virungamountains.org
I saw the same man, his almost sixty years in the area of Uribe, Meta, planning and carrying out ambushes the army.
By Gabriel Angel
Learned of the death of Comrade Martin Villa, it seems appropriate to recall the history of the oldie Fabio, a former guerrilla seventy years devoted to farm work today. As a child, political violence forced his father to leave the rural area of Tulua and migrate with their three boys north of Tolima children.
Several guys were liberal guerrillas, and the region that was then came hotbed of guerrillas. In Lebanon, Santa Teresa and Santa Isabel operated the Sangrenegra, Tarzan and Desquite appointed, of which groups were part many natives of the area. A premium Fabio, Mariela, was then Sangrenegra woman. And Fabio ended up doing the guerrillas of the latter. His tenure in that group was brief and ended in the most unexpected way.
His cousin, Mariela, looked after him zealously as he was only eleven or twelve. Sangrenegra met those of a rite that emboldened, drink the blood of the enemies they killed, to get your energies. And the day Sangrenegra considered that Fabio should catch up to the others, drinking the blood of a dead man before them was reached. Mariela adamantly opposed, and the incident led to the departure of Fabio group and region.
He emigrated to the territory Vásquez, where lived an aunt and several cousins in a village called Blackboard, Puerto Boyaca, a region of colonization, refuge of former liberal guerrillas and where they already had disputes over land ownership between small aspiring settlers and landowners. In addition, the old fight with the Texas Petroleum Company, flourished and took force some workers and peasant organizations.
Perhaps it was why in 1962 appeared the Agualinda and Palagua sidewalks exceptional character, a doctor and radical ideas, Federico Arango Fonnegra, determined to organize a guerrilla head the popular uprising, in imitation of what has been achieved by Che and Fidel in Cuba. His books, magazines and preachings quickly seduced Fabio, who by then was around fifteen. According to his account, the group became about forty farmers in the area.
novelistic are the adventures of the group managed to hold a little over a year, and whose greatest test was the death of Federico Arango own hands Battalion Colombia. In his later flight, they decided to cross the river and Guaguaquí located in Cundinamarca. Calm things returned to Puerto Boyaca, but then discovered that the Palanquero base had become a training school bands of armed civilians, whose aim was to locate and kill guerrillas and collaborators. Several of these groups were behind them.
In the midst of a real enemy encirclement, one morning received a visit from two strangers peasants. One was identified as Alfonso Betancur, and the other as Rafael, nicknamed bozo brush. They were members of the Communist paramilitaries in the area, and learned they were among the first contact Federico Arango to reach the region. From the shadows, they had served as props Federico, no matter who was not a Party member. Now they coming to assist them to them. Thereafter they became his staunchest collaborators, even when internal problems the group decided to disband. The weapons negotiated with these paramilitaries.
That Alfonso Betancur, years later, would convene a regional conference of peasant self-defense groups and raise them to become guerrillas to join such as the FARC, the organization created by Manuel Marulanda and Jacobo Arenas after Marquetalia operation. It took the name of Martin Villa and was featured in the insurgent history as founder of the Fourth Front of the FARC, which years later would spring up countless Fronts that would move to other areas of the country. Fabio, of course, was one of its first members.
Narro this a bit with the intention to point out how the lives intersect. When I traveled to San Vicente del Caguan, a member of the Thematic Commission in the failed peace process with Andrés Pastrana, I met Martin Villa, then a second of Jorge Briceno, Mono, in leading the Eastern Bloc. Intelligent and generous look, I saw him a few years later, in times of Plan Patriot, always in command of a company of public order, ordering and directing the response to the various operations of the Army.
Villa, as it was called in the Eastern Bloc, had specialized in handling explosives and taught about it. Listed as one of the commanders who were responsible for preparing the Swan 3 operation against Eagle 2 in the area of Guayabero River, 1980, in which for the first time in the open, a guerrilla force managed to besiege and copar a complete patrol contraguerrilla soldiers. I saw the same man, his almost seventy years, in the area of Uribe, Meta, planning and carrying out ambushes the army, moving like a fish between mobile brigades. And years later, in Arauca, with a large map spread out before her blue eyes, looking at the development of military operations and figuring out how to deal with them.
Martin Villa attended various meetings of the leadership of the FARC in which regard the current peace process was discussed. He expressed full support for the political solution. In the early days of guerrillas, after a failed ambush on a military convoy, he met with surprise that the uninjured enemies by jumping ground, a soldier fell on him, just as his chaperone refused to answer. In combat, he found no recourse but to appeal to the machete to get rid of him. So the guerrillas demanded carrying the machete in his belt. Imperialism and the oligarchy had to fight them politically, with guns, with whatever it was, it was important to beat them one day. I agree with Fabio, there are many things to remember Villa.
