Peace, Preston http://english.pravda.ru/main/2003/02/18/43429.html Colombia: Three CIA Agents Taken Hostage by Rebels They were on board the plane that made an emergency landing in the Southern jungles of the country. A huge military operation has been launched by the Colombian and army and US officials to rescue three CIA agents presumably captured by the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia -FARC-. The local media estimates in 2.500 the personnel taking part in the actions underway, but no positive results have been reported until now. The Colombian Government fears this case could mean a potential damaging blow for the credibility on its hard-line policy. The US Army also fears this could have a significant impact on the public opinion on its intervention in the conflict. After the plane landed, all the passengers were alive. However, almost as soon as the men got out the Cessna 208, FARC guerrillas surrounded them and took them prisoners. When the Colombian, Sgt Luis Alcides Cruz, and one American, James Thomas, tried to resist abduction they were shot in the head and the chest by the rebels. The remainder did as their guerrilla captors bade and disappeared in to the jungle after the rebels ransacked the plane and then torched it. Probably, the captured ones are no longer in the region. The area where the plane fell has been controlled by FARC's for decades and they surely managed to slip through the net the security forces have tried to draw around the site of the accident. However, specialists agree that guerrillas are not interested in killing their prisoners as they can use them to negotiate with the authorities. They know that the capture of US soldiers may have a great impact in the international community and eventually, could frustrate President Alvaro Uribe's hard line policy. snip- Peace, Preston Peet [EMAIL PROTECTED] Editor http://www.drugwar.com Editor at Large High Times mag/.com "Prohibition creates an irresistibly lucrative opportunity for entrepreneurs willing to operate in illicit business.
