Mark Bowden of "Black Hawk Down" fame wrote it best when towards the end of that novel he quoted a woman from Somalia regarding clan warfare which has torn that country apart. Am paraphrasing but the gist of the woman's comment was that "these people do not want peace. They want power and if that mean's genocide/ war/ ect these disfunctional 3rd world nations are willing to endure it.

Once again, it was foolish to think that these nutcases could be civilized.
