colleagues, is that in this world, always trying to sell as ugly and selfish (and therefore better spent as soon as possible) there are people who, without any kind of financial reward or personal, offered to reveal hostages "Operation Kolbe" is an initiative inspired by the acts of Franciscan Maximilian Kolbe A priest who during the Nazi era offered to die in place of another prisoner who had family in the Auschwitz concentration camp (he was executed in August 1941) In this same Spirit would sacrifice, 32 young Colombians to sign decidieorn a notary its stated desire to be taken to the jungle to relieve the captives.
Here a piece of his manifesto:
"There are 4015 siblings Colombians, regardless of gender, age, race, creed, political affiliation or occupation, who suffer the dehumanizing horror of the kidnapping. Same number of families have waited a long time (...) Today we equal numbers of men and women, Catholics, Christians and / or of other faiths, who believe in the madness of love 4015 (...) We followers of Christ, ready to relieve those actors in the war, in its logic, which do not understand, consider that they may be replaced to relieve their heavy cross. "
With Internet thing is more than 200 people (from various countries) who claim to be Interested in working the project.

But it remains to be a thing that moves me. And we have moved ... and moved ...
There is hope, no hope, no hope ...
