Seems to me that some of these disputes need to be fought out. What have we accomplished by suppressing the fights in the name of stabiity? I think NATO is supporting the African Union force in Darfur. Neighboring Ethiopia is whooping Somiali al Quaeda. Why should we send corn fed blue eyed devils in where they don't belong?
We could lend air support.
But we're to timid to even use it properly in Iraq, so...watch and wait.
And prepare.
