![]() Don't worry, they're definitely already doing something about it, it's not empty words
Now while those girls are probably not the main reason why they (US,UK,France, China) are doing something, if it can save them, well, as I've stated before, that's a good thing IMO, they are securing positions in the area, that's the main reason why China is not in the "western team", they just make sure they are not thrown out of the loop in that story Somalia and Sudan are next, but are not the final objective, IMHO |

![]() is there ONE stable country in africa?
it's so sad...when the imperial powers pulled out of asia, most of the countries there really started surging. africa, otoh, just turns into more and more of a mess. every country. every regime. i just watched the documentary "king leopold's ghost". scary stuff. still waiting for "heart of darkness". will anyone EVER make a movie of that?! yeah, yeah, i know, some minor TV version once, but not a real one. there was talk a few years back of spielberg tackling it, but that was the last i've heard of it. orson welles was TURNED DOWN by the studios for it, btw! so he went and made some little "kane" movie instead.... |

![]() Well, Libya was pretty much stable before my country decided to turn it into a terrorist safe haven for the sake of humanity

They sold it to us so quickly and went so fast about it, that when we figured it was a total scam it was already too late Pretty much the same deal with Mali, which is basically the consequence of the fall of Lybia, with the Lybian arsenal falling in the hands of those we're fighting now Never heard about/seen those doc/movies btw |

![]() "heart of darkness" (au cœur des ténèbres) -- maybe the most famous book of the 20th century!
about slavery in the congo. "fiction", supposedly, but not really. 2 movie versions: 1) minor one on TV, 2) apocalypse now. coppola got lost on the way to africa.... ![]() orson welles was obsessed with making it as well, but it never quite happened. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heart_of_Darkness "king leopold's ghost" is a recent book/documentary. non-fiction abt same subject. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/King_Leopold%27s_Ghost preview: |

![]() PS: all 3 films easy finds on t0rr4nt and all 3 excellent.
uv prolly seen apocalypse now, but it's worth rewatching to see how it matches up. TV version of heart of darkness will make u crave a large-scale "real" version, tho, set in the right place. as in apocalypse CONGO, not apocalypse danang.... SPIELBERG, are u listening?! |

![]() I'm not saying that another country shouldn't get involved,
just that we shouldn't be the frontrunner and main force of every battle plan. We can send what those smaller countries send when we have to go to war: 1: A team of technical advisers. 2: A battalion of medium trained soldiers. 3: 12 helicopters or something similar. |

![]() Again it's not about helping just for the sake of it, unfortunately

It's all about energy depedency, it's about control, ie, who has its hands on the pipelines taps, decides who gets what, at which cost, and under which condition (which currency must be used to pay) And every major power is playing that game, no exception, no choice, highlander style A bit of music to set the mood Hypocrisy is in high gears, double standards are everywhere Remember the hysteria around Iran getting nuclear ? Well, what about that ? "http://debka.com/article/23878/" Quote:
They have nukes, they don't plan to have nukes, they have them, and it's not new obviously But now it's official How fucking scary is that ? ... ![]() Time for a wiki update I guess Have you ever heard any1 complaining about it in the UN ? Nope Why ? Well, because |
