Specifically, the government was peaceful and Christian and the rebels were violent and Muslim. Daily seizures, assaults and attacks were taking place and everyone cheered when the French military went to rescue the schoolchildren held hostage.Thank you for putting this situation into perspective. Again the French is playing the appeaser with the Muslims, while Christians are supposed to lie down and die without a fight.Then the French promised the rebels the leadership of the Departments of Defense and Interior for peace and did not engage the current government in the discussion. The current government said, this is unacceptable, how can we live in fear with these people controlling all weaponry? And the French said, too bad, deal with it.
Thank you for the kind words.
