The US Needs to Pay Attention to This

March 3, 2008

The situation in South America appears to be deteriorating rapidly toward confrontation between Columbia and Venezuela and Equador.

Colombia has said documents found in a cross-border raid suggest links between left-wing Farc rebels and Ecuador’s President Rafael Correa. Colombian troops had entered Ecuador in a raid that killed a Farc leader, Raul Reyes, and 16 other rebels.

Ecuador has expelled Colombia’s ambassador following the attack and is sending troops to the border.

Earlier Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez said he was sending thousands of troops and tanks to its border.

We’d better remember who our friends are and back them up.

According to Gateway Pundit, we aren’t doing that very well yet.

Meanwhile… US Democrats continue to deny financial support to the pro-American Colombian government. This is an important story that you probably missed in the mainstream media.
