No. 2 Colombian rebel killed, government says
(CNN) -- Colombian forces on Saturday killed the second in command of the country's main rebel group, a strike the government said was the most significant yet.
Luis Edgar Devia Silva, known as Raul Reyes, died in a joint operation conducted by Colombian national police and military forces, Defense Minister Juan Manuel Santos said.
The fighting took place just across the Ecuadorean border, he said.
Reyes was among 17 killed, Santos said.
Also killed was Guillermo Enrique Torres, called Julian Conrado, who Santos said was a key ideologist for the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia, or FARC.http://www.cnn.com/2008/WORLD/americas/03/01/colombia.rebel/From the International Herald Tribune:

A little the worse for wear, of course, since he's DEAD.http://www.elpaisvallenato.com/html/noticias/2008/marzo/22/5804497delicadasacusacionesdeecuadoracolombia.htmlArticle names him as "Franklin Guillermo Aisalia Molina."
Colombian authorities, remember, also identified a Chilean official as a high-ranking FARC, too, in the last week or two. You know, now that I think about it, some DU'ers look a lot like FARCs to me, too!
