It's a good thing those nasty European colonialists were chased out of Africa. No telling what ghastly human rights violations would be taking place if they still ruled the place!

The french have been trying to prove they're a world power, well, this is their chance. Send enough soldiers to make a difference or shut their pie holes.
However, in view of the cannibalism going on, he must be willing to submit to an X-Ray of his stomach prior to his return to civilization.
Naaah -- Africa's not geographically close enough for this to spread to Europe for them to care; It won't produce any profits for Kofi Annon and the other UN vultures; The "compassionate" Democratic phonies realize it won't produce a voting constituency here in the U.S.; The GOP is afraid to take action for SOME unknown reason.
I would not want to be among the African mob that tries to take on British troops. I guarantee you they will only make that mistake one time. It was the British who showed us how much more effective a professional army is than a draft army (they ended the draft over 40 years ago).
These African movements simply can't stand against Western regulars. It;s not the minutemen at Lexington here, it's a bunch of savages who practice magical thinking and barely understand the operation of small arms against men who are trained and drilled to act as a team. In Africa where we have used African armies the results are mixed, because the plain fact is that the best of them are not very good. But when Western armies go there (and that would include the Uruguayans) they can usually establish control immediately.
Of course, it's a UNAMA belief that all militaries are inherently equal, which is nonsense. Look at the history of the Congo, and whoever had the most Europeans in his service usually won.
