Question about Bush and the Military's Opinion

Hello,

I've got a simple question. Africa, has been through several wars, there has been ethnic cleansing, and genocides. With all of this evidence stacked up concerning the situation in Africa, why are you in Iraq? What do you think of President Bush, when you are there chasing after a Terrorist, when there is a real war just a few thousand miles away, and you are hunting for leaders in a Crime Syndicate?

You know something, when the people were all white, and this same kind of thing was going on in Europe, the political response was quite different in the old Soviet Republic. But, when innocent black people are being slaughtered, you're hunting for Usama Bin Laden.

First of all because there is nothing that can be done to 'fix' Africa. All we can do is wait for the population to implode then try to put something together afterwards.

Second of all - the endemic problems in Africa are not getting Americans killed - as long as we stay out of them.

Third - we remember Somalia.

Because we stupidly put US troops under the theater control of a non-US general.

Thanks, Bill.

God help our troops if Hillary gets elected in 2008.

So how was the British experience in Africa?

Bush is a fraud.

There is no morality or logic to his actions.

There are no outrageous rebuilding contracts if Africa is bombed to hell.

Well, I think he's being unjust towards you. It's obvious that you couldn't get stuck on a doorknob like that. Your head would get in the way.

Oh, and I don't waste much time with stupid, ideologue trolls. If trolls want attention, they at least need to display a bit of panache. You don't make the cut.

You plonked me for what I said in a conversation you weren't even involved in.

But I'm the "little boy".

Ahhh come on Fred Trolls are like little rubber balls, and fun to play with. Just through one against the wall, and it bounces right back.

We go to Africa, Africans spit in our face, and kill us (Somilia).

We give Africa billions in aid, their leaders squander it.

My question is simple: When will Africans rise up and demand their independence from oppressive governments? Like the Eastern europeans did, they happen to be white, Africans happen to be black, I don't see the relevance in skin color differences, why should you?

You didn't answer my question. You dissassembled it, or you commented and shared your opinion of it. But, you still did not answer my questions. Some-one mentioned Klintoon, I assume that meant Clinton, and he was a presdent. But, he's not President Bush, and I didn't get anyone's opinion of him.

It still doesn't explain the similarities of what happened in Kosovo, here in this article. http://www.cnn.com/WORLD/europe/9901/17/kosovo.01/

Don't think that it is a small thing.

Iraq is a "kill box" for disgruntled, militant Islamists who believe in the cause which they were taught. All are welcome to come and get what's coming to them.

Africa's problems are the result of European colonialism over the past 500 years and the chaos after they left.
