Correct me if I'm wrong, but doesn't this article accuse Uribe of being hyperbolic for suggesting the deal contains amnesty, then describe the deal as amnesty for most, and lenient punishment for the worst (keep in mind, FARC spent decades terrorizing Colombians).

I don't know enough to speak on who is right, but this article is engaging in exactly what it accuses Uribe of doing.
