Top Echelon FARC Leaders Killed Update: Chavez Warns Columbia of Possible War - Ecuador Issues Protest

Update: Hugo Chavez has warned Columbia not to attempt a similar operation on Venezuela territory. Ecuador says Columbia's actions are: "scandalous actions that are an aggression on our territory".

Luis Edgar Devia Silva AKA Raul Reyes and Guillermo Enrique Torres AKA Julian Conrado and 15 other FARC (Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia) members were killed in Ecuador today. Columbian officials said an air strike was launched from the Columbian side of the border into Equador, where the revolutionaries were holed up.

I agree with point of view of Bogotá, because Hugo Chavez was a terrorist agent and he goes on to be one. Anybody remember when Hugo Chavez would want to gain the power in Venezuela with that attack against Democratical Regime, when he did not agree with his government?

Then, I am brazilian and I do not see a war in my continent due to drugdealers command the political action in Colombia, Ecuador and mainly in Venezuela.

HUGO CHAVEZ IS A DICTATOR AND HE WANTS TO BE A EMPEROR IN SOUTH AMERICA

DIE HUGO CHAVEZ! DIE!
