7. Forças Armadas Revolucionárias da Colômbia (FARC)
Translated to English, this organization is called The Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia and it is believed to have been formed during the period of the conflict between the conservatives and the Liberals in Colombia. This organization claims to be an anti-imperialist group that fights for communism, defends the poor farmers, and fights against the privatization of natural resources in Colombia. In order to do this, the group employs guerrilla tactics and other violent means. FARC makes money through extortion, kidnappings, drug trafficking, andillegal mining, and many countries around the world classify it as a terrorist organization owing to the numerous bombings, killings, and assassinations that it has committed in Colombia.
