Facebook for Humanitarianism - A Million Voices Against FARC (GALLERY)
[Edit]
[Edit]
A worldwide rally against the terrorist group FARC has been organized by a common Colombian citizen with no experience in politics through Facebook.
Early this year, Oscar Morales decided to create a group in Facebook to protest against the lies, cruelty and madness of the terrorist group that has kidnapped and killed thousands of Colombians and foreigners for over 40 years in Colombia. Three weeks later the group has over 190,000 members from all parts of the globe. This massive social networking phenomena drive the creator to set a date for the rally: February 4th.
He received immediately hundreds of messages from supporters all around the world, from Paris to Dubai. TV networks, newspapers and radio stations didn’t escape from the wave. The message multiplied. The government announced the Facebook group all their support.
This day millions of Colombian citizens will stop their activities around 12 pm. Paris, Düsseldorf, Miami, London, Buenos Aires, Guatemala, Dubai, The Hague, Tel-Aviv, Washington amongst other cities are joining to our voice to make a million voices against FARC, against kidnapping, against murder.
No political party or experienced leaders are behind the protest. Just civilians who want their voices to be heard.
This is a clear example of how social networks can work for good, noble purposes.

A MILLION VOICES AGAINST FARC.
The time has come to use our voices. To cease the silence which has allowed FARC to survive. To make sure that every leader in the world, every guerrilla, hears us when we say: We reject and condemn FARC – EP (Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia – People’s Army). The fighting and violence must stop NOW.
Again and again, FARC has been allowed to keep captive the thousands of kidnapped prisoners it has wrongfully detained for decades because their lies and tricks are repeated over and over again, to the point where nobody questions their veracity.
There are few acts more destructive to the dignity of a people than the wholesale kidnapping of innocent civilians. Over the past few years, FARC has continued to illegal and unjustly hold captive the thousands of Colombians who committed no crime other than being in the wrong place, at the wrong time. Meanwhile, they continue to reap the benefits of a vast drug production and trafficking empire, which has given them the money and resources necessary to commit countless crimes against the people of our nation. FARC’s unjustifiable actions have left our country degraded and stricken with poverty after more than forty years of simply trying to defend its people’s security and liberty.
Colombia, Colombians, friends from all over the world, today we are united in our cause:
NO MORE!
NO MORE KIDNAPPING!
NO MORE LIES!
NO MORE MURDER!
NO MORE FARC!
