``There is an emotional connection I always feel when I'm in Africa,'' Yeah... the same kind of emotions I feel whenever I visit an Indian reservation... Yeah.. us native americans (no matter how thin my NA bloodline.. :0) used to own everything here... We used to beat up on one another, killing the men, enslaving the women and children, and stealing the horses. And we "native americans" weren't any different than the rest of humanity... I would dare say it would be difficult to find a group of humans where they, or their ancestors, were not involved in some form of human bondage. The funny thing is, Colin Powell is returning to the lands where his OWN PEOPLE and their Kings, captured and sold their own ancestors into human slavery to the whites. He's getting all teary eyed over an PC version of history where Blacks have failed to acknowledge the complicity of their own race in the slave trade (or the Arabs as well)... And that's why you don't see Jesse Jackson or Al Sharpton jumping through hoops to condemn Sudan where human slavery is still practiced. It wouldn't fit their plan. Maybe one day the white man's burden will be equally shared with the ancestors of those folks who's ancestors in Africa sold their own people into slavery. Both bare equal responsibility for creating the demand, as well as the supply, for the slave market. Hawk

Herr Feldwebel, my take is that we don't WOGW in our cabinets yet. I think we see eye to eye on this? Look at the French, they have millions of North Africans and not one single one on the cabinet! There was this African fellow, friend of De Gaul that was member of Parliament an myabe a minister at some time? I know you know who I am talking about! I think he was the only one! Having said that, we can't help it! Sooner or later we will have them in the ministerial posts! What can be done? Opus Dei? what is their role in this? You care to clearfy?
