Sad situation and the world watches and reports the death toll

[dan_bgblue]

Have all the world's leaders been emasculated or are they to busy lining their own nests to care about taking action against a monster? The super powers look pretty damn impotent in cases like this and the ongoing debacle in Syria.

It is a real shame that countries like England, France, India, Russia, China, and the USA can not come together to stomp out genocide and rampant crime against humanity in cases like this. It would not take long to do it if they worked together, and it would send a message that they are fed up and are not going to take it anymore.

The Sudan has been a problem area since the '80's. But then, almost everywhere in Africa has the potential, if it's not already like that, to experience those same problems.

There isn't a lot the Western world can do. No matter what side you take you are the enemy and will be hated by all.

I am worried though, by the Chinese & Russian influence that is being exerted to most of these African countries, most of whom have very large amounts of important materials needed for everyday living. The bad guys are a big leg up on us as far as fostering good relationships with most of these African countries.

These countries have issues that are very foreign to our culture including centuries old tribal issues. I strongly recommend the book "Infidel" for those who want to better understand how these people think, why they fight, etc.... The book is written by a woman who escaped islam and became a writer/reporter. The book gives a good look at islam and the goals muslims have for our world. A great read!
