By now I am sure you are all aware of the Columbian military's freeing
of the FARC hostages. What I find most interesting is that this appears
to be a purely social engineering attack.
The English language media have not provided that much detail thus far
about the social engineering aspects of the operation. If anyone has
more information regarding how the rescue was social engineered, please
post it to this thread.
Just based on what I have seen thus far, this may turn out to be one of
the greatest social engineering attacks in military history.
