    Africa is also one big political fiasco right now because of the damage that the Colonial Era caused. Case in point: Rwandan genocides.

    Before the colonial era, they were fine and happy as long as they stayed away from each other. Then when the British, Dutch, and French decided to divie everything up, the Hutus and the Tutsis suddenly wound up in the same country.

    Sometimes it seems that "modernizing" or "Westernizing" a country or culture only makes things worse. I believe that is part of the problem in Africa, as most of the tribes and groups of people lost their own culture and had a new own more or less forced down their throats, for good or bad.

    Take care all.

    we face the startrek situation, do we interfere with cultures that arent to our way of thiking or technologically weaker. Giving aid to countrys on the brink of despair is interffering even with noble intentions...but the fact remains, once you give a helping hand to a weaker man he will grow to depend on it, and why not, he needs the support, he wont feed himself for a lifetime. you have to make a stand when a country is loosing it big time. Either you go in with teh full intention of taking it over and running it proffestionally for the people, or you leave them all to die. Doing just a little can cause more damge than doing far too much, like a drug weaker cultures NEED more. theres a reason third world countries are messed up, simply the land doesnt want them, it carnt support them. if we arent willing to take the burden of them in our lands.....then we must leave them to die however horrid that is. Or we tell everyone from the start, we go in on the soul principle of regaingin control and we keep control speard over the europeon union, not one soul nutcase state (ahem).
    The world can end in a blood smeared second, but as warriors we live within those seconds.
