Mess in Afgahnistan??  I think the TALIBAN caused that mess and the Europeans are helping because it is the right thing to do!  A lot more of the world is helping there as well!\n\nSouth Africa has made so many strides, FINNALY abolishing Apathied, giving up their nuclear weapons VOLUNTARILY, and helping in missions that promote freedom.  I applaud and welcome all the good things that South Africans are doing.  I hope that they get more foreign aid and investment from the USA, maybe we can stop buying everything from China and Europe...  \n\nI hope for an economically strong South Africa that will lead the continent to freedom and the rule of law.

Well considering that the Assyrian Empire collapsed in 612 BCE, I really don't worry about them too much frankly.  Since most of them are dead already, they're not really "from" anywhere.  There are a couple million floating around, usually called Armeanians and getting persecuted all to hell, but most of them have been widely adopted into Arabic culture.  They used to live in the country that the US is currently bombing the hell out of (Iraq, near Baghdad actually), but they've been scattering around the middle east and migrating around the world for the better portion of the last 2,000 years.

They treat them slightly worse than how the British treated the Aussies.\n\n1- Lock the asylum seekers into the detention camps in the middle of desert.\n2- Then go liberate the Iraqis. \n3- More Iraqis arrive on the shores of Australia while running away from the screwed up Iraq.\n4- Back to step 1

alot of people are talking about the democracy that was brought by usa to iraq.how do you understand democracy.how can democracy be implemented under occupation.what kind of democracy is there when the occupation army,forigne security personel are above the law,they can kill,humilate,rape,anyone they like without questioning.since an order was passed disqualifying the iraqi courts from hearing any such case.do the worl know that the present speaker of the iraqi assembly was kiked & hit by a simple solder because he requested to enter the green zone to go to his office,this happened to two other ministers and many senatores.is this the human righta the usa brought to iraq.do you think the iraqies dont know democracy!!!!.read thair history.what was the counsel of the nation  1922-1958.now who brought dictatorship to iraq.wasnt it the most stable and advanced arab country till 58!!!.how did saddam climb to power ,he was a mere deserting soldeir who never served nither in the army as a soldeir nor in the govt at any capacity.w2hith no qualifications what so ever accept secendory school and a record of being a murderor when he was19!!!!.how was he made the vice president as his 1st appointment in the govt in 68.which power was behinde him.these are facts & there is alot more.you have destroyed one of the finest countries in the world in the name of democracy and big lies like wmd,9/11,relations with alkaieda.who used to warn saddam when there were several coup attempts against him.why wasnt he removed of power in 1991 desert storm when the coalition armies destroyed his army totally and was at the outskirits of baghdad.he was a sitting duck then.think deeply about these questions.

That poll has been shot to death already, they asked 150 Sunni.  I am shocked that they didn't get 100% since the Sunni is Saddams people, 99% of the baathist party who lost power when we came in, no wonder they want us out.  BTW, they are also most of the insurgents and suicide killers in Iraq right now.

This is the animal who cut Kenneth Bigleys (British civilian contractor) head off with a butchers knife, whilst he pleaded for his life, on video.\n\nThat mans family (who were not supporters of the war by the way) now never go a day without the haunting image of their brother, son, having his head severed from his neck with a fountain of blood as shown on Al Jazeera.\n\nHe personally did three "live for TV" beheadings and sponsored the rest.\n\nIs is a good thing this beast is dead?  Damn right it is!\n\nDo I care? Damn right I do! \n\nAl Zarquawi was a Jordanian. He was not an Iraqi or a freedom fighter, and nor are most of his Sunni followers.\n\nDoes his death mark the end of the insurgency, no of course it doesnt, but it is important as it clearly shows that Iraqis are starting to turn against the real foreign invaders and that is the bunch of criminals who are only in that devastated country to cause civil war between the Sunni and Shi'tes.

what's funny is... they ignore Saddam's major genocidal purges... and after they are mostly over... then we invade? a lot of good that does...\n\nI guess they are waiting for the genocide to stop before we go in to "free the people" of Darfur?

Yes they are.  I conducted operations with them during the year that I was in Iraq.  Obviously all the other people who answered have never been there.  For all the operations that they conduct though, you will not hear about them.  The SF with us did very little training with our Iraqi counterparts.  I can't tell you what they did, because we just can't talk about those operations.

Whether you know it or not their really isn't any Arabs on these pages. It's all the little Republican games from people that are trying to use scare tactics. Check their pages man, you can tell by their location, it will say the Middle East, or Asia. So they are lying just like the daily military, that say they are in Iraq, and Afghanistan. That would be a security violation, and the military isn't going to have that. They are in here every day, they are lying to you, and they are not real. Look for "SGT K" and "Support Denmark" and "Hathaway" these people are skinheads, NEO_NAZI'S man.

This has been going on for a good 10-15 years now. However the persecuted are poor Black Christians. The persecuters are generally of Arabic descent and Islamic. Sudan being one of the few Arab nations not mass producing terrorists. \n\nKind of a touchy political situation. The pacifists here don't want us to use our Military at all. The racists don't care because the victems are Black. The Islamic factions will see it as another attack on their religion. Christians have been asking the US to intercede for a decade now. \n\nThe Islamic nations will be up in arms if we use the military in Sudan. We might alienate Egypt as well as facing miitary aid to Sudan from other Islamic nations. \n\nAfrica is touchy about the US being on the continent. Somolia and Nigeria both Islamic or headed by Islamics would be very likely to aid Sudan despite the victems being almost all Black. Other African non-Islamic nations might be hostile over US intervention. \n\nWhat would we do with the refugees? What nation will accept them? We cannot bring peace to Sudan without splitting it into two nations. The Islamics will not tolerate another religioun. You will be seeing the same kind of war in Nigeria soon. If we step into Sudan we'll be drawn into Nigeria's cival war as well. \n\nOn the flip side we have troops nearby who could easily be diverted. We could save thousands of lives with minimal effort. \n\nSudan's gov is not an ally or friendly to the US. Sudan has been used as a base for terrorist ops and many terrorists may have found sancuary there who have been run out of Pakistan and Saudi Arabia. \n\nI think the better option is to lean on some African powers to help get Sudan devided into two nations. African troops will be better recieved and deviding into seperate nations will likely bring about a long term peace. The US can provide air support and remove segments of the Sudanese military machine. After that any African army would have an easy time of moving in and securing the area I think. I am opposed to ground troops and I don't feel that the US could absorb the Sudanese refugees at this time. The economic costs would make Katrina rebuilding seem cheap. With hurricane season rolling around again and likely to produce one or two more Katrinas, a struggling US economy and our current issues Sudanese refugess would just be more than we could handle. At least that many of them. We are talking about a quarter of a nations population. Millions who are in peril. There just is not a place or money in the US for all those people. I think the Suandanse Christan's and the world in general would be better off producing a South Sudan and North Sudan. The Christians in the South and Muslims in the North. \n\nIt's also time to formulate what we will do when Nigeria boils over. It won't be more than 5 years before this happens unless something changes soon.

What?  Is your question, "Who are the leaders of governments in Africa?"  What are you asking?  Your question as it is now makes no sense - and the question as I assume it to mean is just stupid.

You need help alright. If we are supposed to believe you are serious. Come on if you were really in Iraq how is it you are on this site? Gimme a break! <rolls eyes>
