Ecuador and Venezuela Move Troops to Colombian Borders

I've been trying to get my hands around what exactly is going on down in South America. Austin Bay has a good article summing up the situation.

"This week, Colombia launched a strike against a FARC base in Ecuador. Tired of terrorism, Colombia is not going to let FARC thugs hide in Ecuadorian or Venezuelan jungles. [snip] Colombian president Alvaro Uribe said, "We cannot allow terrorists who seek refuge in other countries to spill the blood of our countrymen."

Ecuador and its ally, Venezuela, responded by threatening Colombia with war."
