Of course, the Air Force didn't send a Gulfstream to Colombia. They sent a C-17, which is perfectly capable of carrying some significant military weaponry and/or personnel.
Right. We’re just gonna start running guns into Colombia just for grins.
There are guns, other weapons, and military gear all through Latin America that we gave/sold them. One drug lord in Mexico had an anti-aircraft gun. Yeats ago there was a fellow on this board that claimed we flew jets up from Panama to Guatemala (I think) on missions. Someone hear talked about Walker, Old Grey Eyes, who ventured into Mexico, Nicaragua, Honduras, Costa Rica. The Brits let him go once, but they second time they gave him to Honduras (I think) and he got a firing squad. We backed the overthrow of a democratically elected President in Chile because he was a socialist, and other countries. Dope was in Ecuador and we destabilized that to help coups to oust people who talked to Castro. We occupied Nicaragua for a while. Trump made an attempted regime change in Venezuela - so they're within their rights to not want our military planes coming down. United Fruit repressed the folks in Guatemala, they elected a fellow to deal with that and we endorsed a coup. Under Reagan ee endorsed rounding up Mayans and putting them in camps where they were forced to learn Catholicism. And there's more. We aren't nice.
