Entailments in WordNet

The struggle against the drug lords in Colombia will be a near thing. This
week, the government arrested Jose Abello Silva, said to be the fourth-ranking
cartel leader. He will probably be extradited to the U.S. for trial under an
extradition treaty President Virgilia Barco has revived. Later, another highranking trafficker, Leonidas Vargas, was arrested and 1,000 pounds of
dynamite seized.
President Bush has agreed to meet within 90 days with Mr. Barco, President
Alan Garcia of Peru and President Jaime Paz Zamora of Bolivia to discuss the
drug problem. It might not be a bad idea to do that sooner, rather than
later. After the Panama fiasco, they will need some reassurance.
