I think this is a good article to put down. Mali much like Nigeria has a history of military governments in power saying they will not stay in power for long but look at Guinea the president was overthrown in 2008 they are a poor country like Mali and Nigeria. The military is always a good source of power to rule the military brings order and peace now they may bend some civil rights but no government is perfect. Then again militaries in Africa are not exactly the most professional in the world they are as bad as the soviets when they enter Germany and starting acting like a much of savage monkeys during feeding time. There will most likely be rapes of woman and killings of innocent people like their always is in these countries if they just acted like America their would be little violence.
I'd just like to reiterate how unprofessional the military is in many places in Africa. They do not follow international war laws and often abuse their people. But I also don't think we can just say "if they just acted like America" because 1)we have problems too and 2) they are in way too over their heads - it's not that simply to fix their problems.
ReplyDeleteWell, I obviously don't believe the leader of the military. This sort of thing occurs time and time again. Nothing seems to ever change in Africa. It seems like just a never ending cycle of death, depression and sadness.
