Comically deranged Colombian President Alvaro Uribe just released his government's brand new official stats on how many leftist guerilla fighters his military has "neutralized" in recent years, and the numbers have prompted a couple of...questions.

According to the BBC:

"About 114,000 members of the warring factions were said to have been dealt with by the army in the last six years. However, other estimates say there are only 30,000 in the warring factions."

Oopsies! So wait, are they just making up ridiculously exaggerated kill numbers, maybe, to please their U.S. overlords? You sort of want the answer to be yes, but it's Colombia, so of course it's more complicated and way freakier than that:

"Also there is mounting evidence that members of the security forces have killed hundreds of unarmed civilians and presented them as members of the illegal armies shot in combat."

Oh right, "also" that. The civilized world's favorite ally basically shoots anything that moves and calls it a terrorist, which may explain the additional 84,000 deaths. "Also," the president is a serial killer.
