Exactly.
I'm not sure the point of this article is that nothing is being done by the US, France, or whomever else from the outside, it's that there is no outcry about the attrocities.
And the reason is simple. Racism. Liberal white racism. And liberal black embarrasment that their liberal white friends are racists, who honestly believe that civilized behavior must be demanded of whites, but cannot be expected of blacks. Ugandan President Museveni has discussed this phenomenon at length several times, though he's enough of a statesman to avoid the "r" word, as well as the "l" word.

Africa is not civilized, their educational system is non-existent, they have nothing of value, and every possible disease and problem imaginable. Frankly the only thing we should do to Africans is tell them (1) you are morons for living in Africa and (2) move.

The answer is culture...why are there crack dealers in black neighborhoods throughout the US? Because they allow it and a lot really don't give a damn. You will be hard pressed to find poor white areas with dirtbags on the corners hawking drugs in the suburbs...cultural...think about it.

And the reason is simple. RacismHorsehockey.
In the case of the USA, the reason is National Interest. We have NO National Interests in the affected areas of Africa.
The RACIST here is Kofi Annan, who ignores the UN's mandate to assist in civil-order maintenance as required.
