No. Nobody cares about Africa sad but true.

I could be wrong but the information I had heard was that the Sudanese governemt had lost touch with a few of the rebel groups, and they were the ones that postponed the agreement in an attempt to settle with some other groups. The US in tern wanted them to come to agreement before the thrid deadline arrived, but did agree with their original postponement. Even now however, some groups remain outside the agreement with the Sudanese government.

Bring a bullet proof vest and a machine gun. Most african countries are very unstable.

Good Reason:  Darfur, Sudan\n\nAnswer:  No.  They are too unwieldy, and not well supported, even by their own membership.  \n\nBut they are whiz-bang great balls of fire fun to have at a Scrabble tournament.

I don't know. They haven't involved in military activities since WW2 until recently. But I think we can give them a chance, besides do you think we can fully trust USA? It's a good way to make a balance of power (without having a cold war).

I think they should but I dont think that Iraq is ready for us to leave.

that is hoping for to much, my man is deploying in march, and 3 other neighbors in may 2007 all in different units. this wont happen until a vote is cast on a specific date etc... however how about pray for the safety of our troops more? that is always appreciated, even by the people who dont believe in God. (sorry)

The CIA should stick to intelligence and logistics and leave military planning to the military. As for the military becoming involved in giving the Darfur rebels stingers, I disagree. I don't think that the rebels are in a stable position, right now. The African Union is there and maybe it needs to grow in strength to fight off the Sudanese. We should look into WHO is funding the Sudanese! Last time I checked, it was companies like Talisman in Canada doing the major funding of Sudan. Maybe Talisman has backed out - but other companies are still funding Sudan. We boycotted all of their products once - we can do it again. Does YOUR stock support the Sudanese government?

Of course it is. Its their obligation to have a strong military to defend this great country.

NATO has sufficient members.  What they need is empowerment.  Kick butt and pull the fangs out of their areas of involvement.  'Tough and unbending' will generate respect.  Right now NATO is merely a money drain and a joke.

The coalition of the willing (36 countries with boots on the ground and 78 countries offering logistic support) that went in to Iraq, went in under UN charter and 14 different resolutions from the 90 cease fire agreement. Nato is currently involved in helping train Iraqi troops and police.\nCanada is doing a very good job helping us in the war against terrorism with their troops that are deployed in Afghanistan. The UN peace keepers seem to have their hands full in Africa, the Ivory coast and Haiti, along with other locations.

Probably not Africa, few enough national governments there are stable or organized enough to fully exploit a resource like that. I am Canadian, so I'll have to pick the home team.

Actually, Canada has deployed troops to Afghanistan because she is a military member of NATO, and in the immediate aftermath of 9-11 NATO invoked the clause that calls for all members to come to the defense of another member state who has been attacked. All the members of NATO agreed that Afghanistan had a direct participation in the attack against the United States.

Except for the small detail of the army that's perpetrating that genocide, yes.  The problem is that malnourished people without weapons cannot overtake a governmental army.  It also doesn't help that the African Union is doing nothing to help the situation there.  They have 7,000 troops (who don't do anything) to patrol an area the size of France.
