The nation of Colombia saw its moment to do the funniest thing possible.

Apparently 
called Colombia the Israel of Latin America. Insane how things could change.
Ashktually, he called the Goverment of Colombia at the time the Israel of Latin America.
"The Colombian government has turned into the Israel of Latin America," said Chavez during his show on Sunday.
"Colombia is a terrorist state that is subject to the great terrorist, the government of the United States and their apparatus," he explained.
Israel embassador in Argentina, Rafael Eldad, in response to the Venezuelan president's claim that Colombia was becoming "the Latin American equivalent of Israel", said that Hugo Chávez was "introducing the culture of hatred into Latin America" and called for messages of peace and calm for the region.
Context: Colombia was under the government of far-right politician Álvaro Uribe. Colombia was practically surrounded by left-wing governments in Venezuela, Brazil, Peru and Ecuador. Uribe was still fighting leftist guerrillas in the Colombian interior. With this excuse, he ordered the invasion of northern Ecuador and bombed the region.
Rafael Correa was furious and ordered the withdrawal of troops, broke off relations with Colombia and threatened to react militarily. Venezuela, Cuba and Nicaragua decided to support Ecuador. Venezuela went so far as to prepare soldiers to help Ecuador defend its country. Fortunately, Nicaraguan President Daniel Ortega resolved the crisis diplomatically.
Evo Morales accused the US of supporting Uribe only because they wanted to destroy Unasur (the equivalent of the EU in South America).
And guess who was selected for an investigative panel into a publicized Israeli attack on civilians over a decade ago?

There was a community note visible for awhile that thought it was the university and was like "universities aren't countries".
How are these lanyard fucks in charge again?
I'm out of the loop, why is it funny?
Yanks usually mix "Columbia" and "Colombia"
Pretty much pronounce them the same too
I mean they're bamed after the same guy (Physicist Charles-Augustin de Coulomb)
They're actually named after lovable detective Lieutenant Frank Columbo
kinda easy to mix two words that are literally both derived from columbus
...huh. Alright then.
There was another headline recently that I felt was probably editorial boards hoping to get clicks from news feeds that truncate them.
Opens with "Colombia says thousands of grenades and rifles found..." but ends with "...missing from military bases"
"Colombia says thousands of grenades and rifles found..."
"missing from military bases"
*stealing weapons from military is still based as long as they aren't given to fascists
It's very likely those weapons went to fascist paramilitaries who terrorize the countryside, so yeah.
That's the best impression of Reddit(dot)com I have seen at Hexbear(dot)com.
"Kudos" - Jon Stewart voice plus hand gesture flourish.
Oh this is going to rile up all the zionist evangelicals over there.
