What does Gates have to do with World Poverty anyway? His job is to prepare people to kill other people and break things.
I guess he’ll send troops to buy lots of stuff and bring up the economy. Get real Bone-head!

Ummm....ok. I guess the long range plan is to take over Africa, eliminate all the tribal crap, tin-pot dictators, thugs, etc. Then make sure the food gets distributed, give them some help with infrastructure, growing stuff, etc.

Only in our myopic dreams is that a reality
In truth Gates, is a politician first, then U.S. Defense Secretary
