You've got to stop the bombing, Pablo. I don't know what you're thinking anymore.
I think we should reorganize a bit and start sending our boys out to burn some houses down and do some damage to politicians and senators all over the country. And to the soldiers and cops in our way, the judges who annoy us and the reporters that watch us, basically, we have to create a presence so disruptive they'll want nothing but peace. That's the only way we're going to get there.
Is that it? Is that what you want? A civil war? You've gone crazy, asshole.
We have to fight, brother. Let's put our hearts into this. And if we all must die, so be it.
Well, yes. The thing is, I don't want to die yet, Pablo.
[sighs] Nor do I. But the bombs make the public want peace. And that will influence the politicians.
You're the one who says the politicians don't give a shit about the public. If you want to influence politicians, you'll have to narrow your focus. You know what I mean?
[voiceover] Gustavo was right. They needed a new strategy, one that brought terror directly to the people that mattered the most.
