South American War?

I have been reading a lot about the Columbia-Ecuador-Venezuela conflict that has recently come to the forefront of the Latin American, and a couple articles I read even suggested that a South American war could break out, simply due to the fact that all three of these countries have so much at stake. From what I read, and the facts I see, I personally do not believe that a war will break out. This article i chose to post talks about the recent Latin American Summit Meeting that was supposed to be focused on universal issues, such as energy use, but instead the conflict seemed to have taken precedent. All three leaders of the countries seemed to have harsh words for one another, with Hugo Chavez of Venezuela and Rafael Correa of Ecuador ganging up on Álvaro Uribe of Colombia, for his so called breach of sovereignty. I think this conflict has a lot to do with the theme of "People" because if Columbia did in fact break Ecuador's sovereignty they were failing to recognize Ecuador as a People. If that were the case all the time, and happened all over the world, there would constant chaos. People are the most important sovereign entity in the world, and that needs to be preserved at all costs. Here is the article, check it out....
