Extremist group threatens to 'exterminate' opposition to Colombia's new government


by Adriaan Alsema August 12, 2018

Right-wing extremist group the Aguilas Negras are threatening to kill anyone who opposes Colombia’s new president, Ivan Duque.

In the latest death threat and manifesto by the group’s “Southwestern Bloc,” the extremists said that it considered all political parties that do not make up the governing coalition a “military target.”

Also threatened in the letter were victims organizations, labor unions, politicians and social leaders.

Threatened political parties:
  • Humane Colombia
  • Green Alliance
  • Communist Party
  • Alternative Democratic Pole

    We know trolls everywhere would support this threat, but it is evil, as everyone knows, regardless.
