Yup. I mean, look at what the intelligence community went through after Pablo Escobar bought it...

Did you know human rights groups SUED `em to find out if we provided Los Pepes (a group that fought the Medellin drug cartel on the cartel's turf and terms - and that group not only survived, they managed to gut the cartel's infrastructure and flush Mr. Escobar so that the Colombian police could take him out).

Then, when one of the key players in Los Pepes, a guy by the name of Carlos Castano, pieces together the AUC, which proceeds to do an impressive job against FARC, a narco-terrorist group. His reward? A place on the SAME blacklist that FARC and al-Qaeda occupy.

I'm still trying to figure out what the "brilliant" thinking is behind THAT move, or who was the genius at Foggy Bottom who made that recommendation.
