"...In 2007, according to government records, Aprodeh received funding from Oxfam America, George Soros's Open Society, the John Merck Foundation, the city of Barcelona, the Dutch embassy and a U.S. government agency called the Inter-American Foundation, among others. On Friday, the Peruvian government asked Aprodeh to explain how its NGO status allows it to intervene on behalf of terrorists, as it did in the European Parliament..."

It was only a matter of time before Soros was discovered to be funding terrorists.

...received funding from the city of Barcelona,

Interesting but not surprising. I go to BCN a lot, and over the years, I have seen it turn from your average European Socialist city to one that permits and even supports the anarchist thugs who run loose in its streets. And they're supporting the marxists in Peru as an anti-Spain and anti-American gesture. All this in the name of Catalan nationalism, of course.

Verdaguer would weep.

As a point of clarification. APRODEH/Francisco Soberon did not propose to the EU that they remove the MRTA from their terrorist list. This has been misreported by Ms. O’Grady and throughout the media. The MRTA was and is not on the EU Terrorist list (nor the US terrorist list). Mr. Soberon wrote a letter to members of the European Parliament recommending that they not adopt an amendment to an unrelated parliamentary resolution on the Latin American Summit taking place in Lima, which called for the MRTA to be added to the EU Terrorist list. The amendment was not adopted. It should be noted that this amendment and resolution would not have had any impact on the EU Terrorist list as this list is not compiled by the European Parliament.
