COLOMBIA-"We Denounce the Militarisation of Our Lives" http://www.ipsnews.net/news.asp?idnews=54710

Excerpts from the interview follow. Q: Your group was recently threatened by a paramilitary group for the fourth time. Which one was it? A: The Black Eagles, Águilas Negras. 

Q: You help women who were forced to flee their communities, homes and lands due to violence. Why is Águilas Negras threatening you? A: Because we are women human rights defenders. And they hate human rights, particularly women's rights. They hate justice, reparations, and the truth about the crimes committed by them. 

Everybody in this country knows that they are state agents behind that ridiculous name. They want to scare our communities, [which are] in peaceful resistance against perpetrators of crimes again humanity and war crimes. They are panicked by our knowledge of their crimes, because we have documented their crimes for more than 10 years. They are panicked by our capacity and commitment to justice for displaced women. They killed more than 50 human rights leaders, men and women, last year, they are really killers.
