For instance, in eastern Colombia, where paramilitaries are weak or have yet to fully penetrate, the army is directly implicated in the killing of non-combatants and prisoners taken hors de combat, torture, and death threats. In the rest of the country, where paramilitaries have a pronounced presence, the army fails to move against them and tolerates their activity, including egregious violations of international humanitarian law; provides some paramilitary groups with intelligence and logistical support to carry out operations; and actively promotes and coordinates with paramilitaries and goes on joint maneuvers with them. Though high-ranking officers deny that units under their command organize and promote paramilitary activities, the evidence is overwhelming that such activity is commonplace.

The first Jews came to Colombia during the 16th century. They came as settlers from Spain who practiced Christianity but were really Marranos. In 1636, a huge group of Marranos were caught and put to death. There was still a small group of secret Jews after this massacre, but they slowly diminished. There are no practicing Jews left from this time period in Colombia.

The drug trade has ... taken a profound toll on the integrity of Colombia's judicial system, which is already challenged by the 38-year old war between illegal armed groups. With an enfeebled law enforcement system, drug cartels can do business with near impunity.

ATF has provided extensive firearms tracing/identification training to numerous investigative groups throughout Colombia and has hosted a national firearms trafficking conference. Additionally, ATF provides training to various ballistic groups that manage the three Integrated Ballistic Identification System (IBIS) machines in Bogota; IBIS is the software that allows law enforcement to image and compare crime gun evidence.
