    Obwohl diese afrikanischen Militärbanden oft nicht größer oder mächtiger sind als die organisierten kriminellen Banden in Asien oder Osteuropa, wird über ihre Aktivitäten in den Medien - sogar in den westlichen Medien - unter der Rubrik Politik (Geschehen aus aller Welt) respektvoll berichtet, statt unter der Rubrik Verbrechen.

    In some African countries, exercising intellectual integrity is a felony. Proving that you can differ with the government on matters law is playing with the balls of a wounded tyrant! Everyone is expected to bend to the utopian vision of these brutes! A professor in these countries must be a menial of a foolish politician while an academic dwarf sits as the attorney at the high table of the nobility! We are no better than human scams!

    Africa was full of people in need of help and there had to be a limit. You simply could not help everybody; but you could at least help those who came into your life.
