We have military personnel all over Africa today.


That's right, UW. But they are keeping a low profile, and they are not trying to run things openly. I wish we would get them out, because I think they tend to suck us into situations that we would be better off to leave alone. As I posted earlier, there is no will in this country to "save" Africa.

Let's hope someone doesn't decide it's the "cause", and bring it to the attention of CNN on a slow news week...
