The article is in Spanish, here is my translation;

General Oscar Naranjo has presented this afternoon documents and photographs contained in Raul Reyes' computers that prove strong ties between the Venezuelan President and the FARC. They reveal the handing off 300 million US as well as arms.

SEE VIDEOS

"We, the FARC, will always be on the lookout for the defense of the Bolivarian Revolution in Venezuela, in case of any 'gringo' agression", says one paragraph in a letter from Marulanda to Chavez. Another communication reveals the destination of a delivery "50 kilos" from an airplane.

The General has revealed the delivery of 300 million US from Venezuela to the FARC. This is represented by a letter from Ivan Marquez with the date of 2-14-08 after a meeting that took place with Minister Rodriguez Chacin.

It is important to remember that this claim was initially brought up by Patricia Poleo.

Equally other letter reveal diverse economic contributions from Chavez to the FARC. There is also talk of arm shipments take place too.

The General also claimed that there were negotiations of the delivery of 50 Kg. of URANIUM and has presented photographs of the weapons belonging to Raul Reyes.

All the accords had as their goal to topple the government of Alvaro Uribe and would leave open the pact between the FARC and Chavez with that objective.

The nexus of FARC and the Venezuelan government was being established by Ivan Marquez and the Minister Ramon Rodriguez Chacin.

In the 2nd video the General mentions the possibility of a “dirty bomb”. They also don’t know if this material is in the country or if it left the country.

He alleges that FARC is trying to become a transnational player at this stage.

Colombia Files Show Chavez Funded FARC, Rebels Sought Uranium

By Helen Murphy

March 3 (Bloomberg) — Colombia’s police chief Oscar Naranjo said documents from the computer of a guerrilla leader killed last weekend in Ecuador show links to Venezuela’s President Hugo Chavez.

The documents on the computer of Raul Reyes, the second in command of the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia, indicate that Venezuela provided the guerrillas with at least $300 million and would help Chavez in the event of a U.S. attack on Venezuela.

Naranjo said the FARC, as the group is known, was seeking to buy 50 kilos of uranium for bomb making with aim of getting involved in international terrorism.

Another document found in the laptop belonging to slain rebel leader Raul Reyes suggests financial ties between Chavez and the rebels dating back to 1992, Naranjo said. At the time, Chavez was jailed in Venezuela for leading a coup attempt, and was plotting the comeback that eventually led to his election as president in 1998. "A note recovered from Raul Reyes speaks of how grateful Chavez was for the 100 million pesos (about US$150,000 at the time) that the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia, or FARC, delivered to Chavez when he was in prison." - LINK

FARC is a Marxist narco terrorist organization that operates mainly against the Colombian government. The get their funds mainly from kidnappings, drugs and “taxing” of Colombian citizens in the areas they try to control.

I believe they are around 10,000 troops in size at this moment (they were around 20K in the 90s).

My Spanish is off but, IIRC, FARC means:

Forza Armada Revolutionario de Columbia

The Revolutionary Armed Forces of Columbia

BTW, they released pictures of Reyes’ dead body on Colombian TV (similar to Saddams sons).

He was in his underwear and wearing a Mao t-shirt!
