Brasil Is José Serra Campaigning in Washington or in Brazil? http://alainet.org/active/40031&lang=es

For the record: despite a decade of allegations, Washington has yet to publicly present one shred of evidence that the Chávez government actually supports the FARC. The only "evidence" in the public domain comes from laptops and computer equipment allegedly captured by the Colombian military in their raid across the Ecuadorian border in March 2008. Right-wing bloggers such as Reinaldo Azevedo repeat the media myth that Interpol verified the authenticity of these allegedly captured files, but Interpol's report [http://www.interpol.int/public/ICPO/PressReleases/PR2008/pdfPR200817/Default.asp] emphatically says no such thing. All we have is the word of the Colombian military – an organization that has been known to murder hundreds of innocent teenagers and dress them up as guerrillas.
