Has nothing to do with the fact that they're black..
It's just not an oil problem.

Bahrain and Syria and murdering their own people, probably soon in Jordan too. But they either have no oil at all or are allies of ours and close friends to those that do supply us with oil.

Libya supplied nearly all the oil to Italy, a significant portion to Ireland and France as well as Germany.

It was important to take over Libya to secure oil fields as Gaddafi planned to destroy the facilities.

DOJ "black" statistics for you.

Can't pull a race card with this can you?

Off-topic, but: With the avatar you have, shouldn't your username be "DarthDoggie"?

Sorry I was speaking in reply to blkmjk. I just hope it doesn't become something like Rwanda.
And In reply to Darth Doggie I would love to change my name to that.. except I've been called Nahsik or Nas is actually my nickname in real life.

Fact is we can only get involved in wars when it is to our advantage ie on a strategic power or resources basis. Countries like Ivory Coast and Zimbabwe forget it. It's not to do with skin colour - it's because we would be accused of going back to colonial days. Plus of course there is nothing to gain.
Anyone thinking that intervention is based purely on some altruistic notion is living in la la land.
I'm surprised people continue to be surprised by this!

I have never had anyone over the age of twelve ask me, "you mad bruh?" Or use FTW...

Western corporation like Africa just the way it is...
That is, segregated into so many small sections that they can buy off the local leaders and rape a beautiful country at will..

Why would the greedy west wish to alter that.???

First people complain about too many wars. Now they complain about too few wars. No matter what you do you can't satisfy people.

*Snore* Nice quip but not how I see things. War is necessary at times obviously, but when it is based on monetary or strategic gain, it can be difficult to comprehend or stomach.

The impotent UN is already there. Also it's a former French colony so let them (French) deal with Cote de Ivoire

Plus it doesn't host a US military base nor is it floating in a sea of oil, so no reason for us to intervene.

America has no friends, just interests. as the ivory coast has not much for interests, thus our stance of watching another atrocity unfold in front of our eyes

Where is that, Africa? Who cares? Let them kill themselves off so we don't have to do it. Good riddance to bad rubbish.

There's no oil in the Ivory Coast is there? Diamonds or gold maybe, idk?
Unless they have something useful, nobody cares.

Yeah, this Ivory coast stuff has been going on for a while. I wanna say I heard about it before the First days of the Egypt revolt. The news didn't even discuss how messed up it is, they just talked about how it will make chocolate more expensive. Too bad they don't have Oil too, they'd be a U.S. Territory by now (dry humor).
Man, this planet is crazy, good luck.
Peace!

France is all over Africa with UN backing them up.

France Takes Control of Airport in Ivory Coast
By STEVEN ERLANGER
Published: April 3, 2011

PARIS — French forces in coordination with the United Nations took over the Ivory Coast’s main airport on Sunday so that planes could land and foreigners evacuated as fighting continued in Abidjan between rival presidents.France said it has sent another 300 troops, bringing its peace-keeping forces up to about 1,400 in the Ivory Coast, said Col. Thierry Burkhard, a French Defense Ministry spokesman. Nearly 1,700 foreigners, half of them French, have taken shelter at a French military camp close to the airport, and France acted to ensure that they and others could be evacuated if necessary, Colonel Burkhard said.

Fighting continued on Sunday between troops loyal to the elected president, Alassande Ouattara, and those loyal to the incumbent, Laurent Gbagbo, who refuses to recognize the election results and leave office despite Mr. Ouattara’s election having been endorsed by the African Union. Mr. Ouattara’s forces have swept south to enter the commercial capital, Abidjan, where Mr. Gbagbo remained.French troops were there to support the United Nations mission in the Ivory Coast, known as ONUCI, although the French government has said clearly that Mr. Gbagbo lost the election and must leave office. The Gbagbo camp on Sunday called the French “an army of occupation.”

The United States also called for Mr. Gbagbo to step down immediately in a statement by Secretary of State Hillary Clinton. “Gbagbo is pushing Cote d’Ivoire into lawlessness,” her statement said on Sunday. “He must leave now so the conflict may end.” She also called on Mr. Ouattara’s troops “to respect the rules of war and stop attacks on civilians.”

So the French are getting Hillary to drag us into another section of Africa by saying were protecting civilians?

The new area of Africa they want to attack.


France was passed the torch from Bush. Do you know what else France is doing like Bush.

Sarkozy blocked by EU allies
March 01, 2011
GERMANY and France faced a backlash from some of their key EU allies in their drive to establish a European competitiveness pact in return for measures to reinforce the euro-zone bailout fund.

At an EU summit in Brussels, President Sarkozy and German chancellor Angela Merkel proposed limits on business taxes, national debt and pension ages and a scrapping of
index-linked pay rises.

Britain, Belgium, Sweden, the Netherlands and Austria were joined by Poland and Romania in expressing opposition.

Belgium’s caretaker prime minister, Yves Leterme, said he was against any plan that included doing away with index-linked wage increases.

"There must be more economic co-operation, but member states must be left the room to carry out their own policies. Each member state has its own accents, its own traditions," he said.

The Franco-German initiative would see a new inter-governmental body policing fiscal discipline and economic policy harmonisation throughout the euro-zone.

President Sarkozy said Germany and France were working "hand in glove" to defend the single currency. "We want to ensure the convergence of different European economies ... We therefore agree on a structural plan that is designed to respond to the challenges that Europe faces," he said.

France seems to be pushing the global elite agenda of rob the poor for the global corporations in the EU. They want to take away benfits to the poor and give tax breaks to the rich. Why does that sound familiar. The NWO has a new leader to push there agenda it was Bush now its Sarkozy. It appears the torch has been passed.

More on what France is up to.
