  1. Well let's read between the lines here. First you have a French newscast going into Africa talking about atrocities. Why are they going to publicize this to the French public. What is the support of colony of France. What I like to know is what is Africa countries going to do to stop this? I mean does in Africa have its own leadership that can handle problems within their own continent of Africa? 😮 I mean when is Africa going to step up and take the lead and start dealing with African problems? Should an African countries pay the fees to go in and provide peacekeeping troops other African nations that are at war with each other? This is not a European problem this is an African problem needed to be stopped by African countries. 😮
