Ingrid Betancourt invites Rebels from the Terrorist Group FARC to Demobilize and Incorporate Into Society

In this Video Ingrid Betancourt invites the FARC (Fuerzas Armadas Revolucionarias de Colombia) to demobilize (term used by the Colombian Government to the act of a Rebel returning to society and giving up a live of violence; guerrillas are paid to return). She was held for over 6 years by this terrorist group and was their highest profile hostage until the Colombian Army liberated her and other 14 hostages.  Many of the 8,000 FARC militants are actually hostage to their organization and can not "demobilize" because their lives and those of their loved ones would be put in jeopardy since the FARC organization punishes desertion with death.

Transcript of the Video (Spanish to English):
