| Summary / Abstract (Note) | This article analyzes the 2008 Colombia-Ecuador armed crisis in the light of the practice of targeted killings and incursions against non-state actors harbored at terrorist safe havens in a third party state. The Colombian use of force against Fuerzas Armadas Revolucionarias de Colombia (Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia-FARC) is discussed in the context of use of force in International Law regarding the right of self-defense against non-states actors and third state parties' obligation to deny passive support. It is argued that the Colombia situation is similar to the situation faced by Israel and Turkey. |
