<br/><br/> "Last fall [2003], the United States and Colombia launched an extraordinary military operation that sent thousands of troops into Arauca, a remote region of this South American country plagued by warring rebel factions and the cocaine trade. By outward appearances, Operation Red Moon opened a new front in the two countries' long war on drugs. This time, however, the fight also was over oil." (LOS ANGELES TIMES) This article discusses the U.S. support of "Colombian troops in a campaign against rebels that protects an oil company's operations."
