6. It is heartbreaking
It is heartbreaking how the show doesn't even touch on just what the F are these CIA contractors doing in Colombia, or who and what the FARC are (aside from the obligatory evildoers/drugdealers/commies).

5. Check this out...
This must be a pretty sensitive capture because the foreign press have been talking about this for months but hardly a peep from the US press. This company that these "systems analysts" work for was a part of Northrop Grumman and after their capture the employees where transfered to a company called CIAO...that is right CIAO...isn't this just right out of a Clancy novel?
