Any suggestions for an end to this?

Short of armed intervention, which is so un-PC that it won't be done, I can't think of a thing. Twenty years ago was the time to keep the situation from heading where it now is, and now- it is simply too late...

Yes, the end of self rule in Black Africa , and a return to colonies. Self rule in Africa is a collasal failure, there people have not the capacity for self rule.
