Now, let me get this straight, France is backing the REBEL MUSLIMs and bombed the Legitimate Government's air force, meager though it was. That is essentially an act of war. France says it retalliated for the killing of 9 French Peacekeepers and and American aid worker. There was no chance given for explanation from the government. Was it was an accident or deliberate? If deliberate, was it for cause? Were the French acting as Allies of the REBELS? If so, then I am on the side of the Government of Ivory Coast, which, I believe is Christian.....

this is the first time I read about the Muslim/Christian aspect of the conflict. From now on I will presuppose it, in Africa, and Southeast Asia, and oh, just about anywhere except central and South America. Give that 20 years.
