“”We are giving them transport, that is a form of support””

That’s true but reading the link in this thread looks like the US is moving US troops that are in Burundi -

“”DOHA, Qatar (AP) — Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel has ordered the U.S. military to transport troops from Burundi into the Central African Republic to help quell the latest upsurge in violence there.””

I know they say the English language is confusing so this could mean Burundi troops and not US....

I’m sorry - it wasn’t on the link in the thread but this and don’t ask me as this point where I found it. I’m disgusted about the whole thing.

Burundi is about 80 % Christian, but they haven’t said WHO they are transporting.
