"The United Nations Security Council meets today to finalise plans for a rapid reaction force, led by France, which could be in Bunia by as early as next week."

The article about the mother having to watch...... just terrible.

I read about this situation right here about two weeks ago..... and two weeks ago the UN and France were ready to send in some real FIGHTING troops to quell this mess. Obviously, there's a little bit of stalling going on. I keep thinking they are waiting for the USA to comit a few hundred thousand troops. FRANCE - DO YOUR JOB!! Most of these African countries were YOUR colonies not too long ago. Show your stuff........ they don't have the arms that Iraq had or the nukes that North Korea have. The UN and French response to the problems in Africa are sickening.

Hey Bart!

Why is this conflict the responsibility of the French and the US?

Why don't the other African nations step in and quell this murderous rampage?

Why don't the Argentines, Mexican's, Canadians, Laplanders, Russians, Iranians, Turks, Germans, Chinese, Koreans and all the other "peace" loving nations rise up and clean up this s*&t hole of country?

How is the USA to blame for the abominable behavior of the scummy tribes of human beings that seem to inhabit most of "great" African continent?

I think this shows that inspections are effective and should be given a chance to work without any war for oil.

Uh France supported the murderous Hutus in the Rwandan civil war that killed a million Tutsis. Why? Because the Tutsis were supported by English-speaking Uganda. France has long had a policy of supporting French-speaking Africans regardless of how murderous they are.
