This guy Gbagbo is referred to as "Africa's Hitler". He lost the election but instead of ceding power he seized the hotel where his opponent was staying and has been threatening genocide, something he's been guilty of ever since seizing power several years ago.

so yeah, he should cede power.

I know it's a favorite sport for everyone to attack Obama over every little thing he says and does, but at least look into the topic he's commenting on, the genocide in Africa is something that should have been acted upon years ago. How can we call ourselves a civilization of intelligent beings if we can't even acknowledge the amount of murder and slaughter that's been taking place in Africa?

As Gbabgo seizes Central Bank assets in Ivory Coast, a look at the arcane institution



Dakar, Senegal
When an infrastructure-strapped backwater such as, say, Guinea-Bissau looks to borrow the tens of billions of West Africa CFA francs it needs to tar rural roads and string power lines, its functionaries fly here, to La Banque Central des États de l’Afrique d’Ouest: the central bank for eight West African nations (Ivory Coast, Mali, Guinea-Bissau, Togo, Benin, Senegal, Burkina Faso, and Niger). It's where government debt is sold in the form of treasury bills to whatever arcane financiers harbor a niche interest in owning a chunk of Africa's debt.........

"We've never really known the ins and outs of how the bank is governed," Eurasia Group Africa Analyst Anne Fruhauf said in a phone interview. "It's always been extremely nontransparent." ...........


According to Mabri, Gbagbo's functionaries cashed themselves checks from the country's bank account; sold their own treasury bills in the midst of a near civil-war climate; sidestepped regulations; transferred Central Bank funds to commercial banks that recognize, or at least do business with Gbagbo.

And the world outside the Central Bank is still trying to comprehend how he managed it.

" I know it's a favorite sport for everyone to attack Obama over every little thing he says and does"

Well if almost all the noise that he generates is laughable, stupid, a lie, or reeks of hypocrisy.. if the shoe fits.

Who elected this guy, with the credibility of a WWF wrestler, global arbiter of virtue and honest broker?.. the people of the Ivory Coast?.. lol..

When so called leaders of other nations give you or your chosen party leader advice, do you care?.. or is obamas advice morally superior because he was "elected" (lol) by the most special people on Earth: The GOP & DNC electoral college.

gbagbo should tell obama to cede power... then they'll be even in the "You're a towel", "No, you're a towel" surreal political circus.

updates for the Ivory Coast problems



SOME 500 foreigners sought refuge in a French military camp in Ivory Coast's main city Abidjan amid fighting between incumbent Laurent Gbagbo and his rival for the presidency, the French military said today.

Ivory Coast's Troubles Bleed Into Neighboring Liberia........

Adding to Liberia's already mounting problems, is the flow of Liberian mercenaries into the Ivory Coast and the flow of more than 100,000 Ivory Coast refugees into Liberia. “It’s a serious threat to the stability of Liberia and, I might say, to the stability of all neighboring countries,” said Liberian President Ellen Johnson Sirleaf in an interview. “There’s been a lot of investment for peace in this sub-region; we’re beginning to see the result of that investment,” she added. “If nothing is done to resolve the crisis, all of these efforts will be undermined.”

The mercenaries are fighting on behalf of the Ivory Coast's entrenched leader Laurent Gbagbo— not recognized by the United Nations—as rebels in the north of the country battle for control. “According to what we hear, both sides are recruiting Liberian mercenaries,” said Harrison S. Karnwea Sr., Liberia’s interior minister. “When people have been used to living on violence, they have got no profession to earn their living on.” On Thursday, fighting had escalated in the Ivory Coast capital city of Abidjan where forces loyal to Gbagbo clashed with forces in support of U.N.-recognized president Alassane Quattara.
