Africa is going through the same atrocities. Right now, Nigeria is under threat by the Boko Haram. Mali is undergoing assault from other Jihadists. The Congo has millions of displaced people due to civil unrest. Don't you think if we are going to send troops or implement military assault on humanitarian grounds, we should help all disputes instead of one?

You call what the USA is doing in the Middle East help? Besides Africans said 50 years ago they could manage their own affairs, can't run to the White or half Black man now.

Notice we have not helped innocent Africans being butchered. Look at the atrocities in the Sudan where Muslims were spearing infants in front of their screaming helpless mothers. Obama for some reason doesn't care at all about that kind of thing.

This has been going on long before Obama took office, even before Bush took office, even before Clinton took office. So quit acting like everything was great before Obama.

But --- interesting that Obama is one-half Kenyan, you'd think he'd care a little about Africans.

Americans don't have to go running into Africa when you've got the French to take care of Francophone Africa like Mali, Niger, Cote d'Ivoire, Chad, Mauritania, Rawanda Central African Republic. Why do you think the France still has the Foreign Legion? Britain or South Africa takes care of its former colonies and Protectorates when needed! Finally you do realize that most Senior military officers in Nigeria, Ghana, Kenya, Uganda or Tanzania and Zambia have all attended military colleges at places like Sandhurst and British officers are detailed to all the armys in these Commonwealth Nations.
