Terrorist Plot Foiled! - May 18, 2004
A beleaguered democracy beset by continual terrorist attacks by ruthless, depraved, and highly imaginative terrorists managed to foil a terrorist plot yesterday. By taking swift, decisive police action, a terrorist training camp full of foreign fighters and outside agitators were apprehended. Despite the depraved nature of the terrorist threat against democracy, the democratic country continues to hold itself up to higher standards of human rights and democratic process.
Some 88 Colombian paramilitaries were apprehended on Sunday May 9 at a ranch, El Hatillo, near Caracas, in Venezuela. These 88 were part of a larger group of 130 who had entered the country. According to the testimony of one of these captured Colombians, the group was training and preparing for yet another operation to overthrow the Venezuelan government.
