Just to clarify, the west (mzungu) has a right to act in their self interest, when their self interest dovetails with mine, I will support their actions. An example, I can't stand Dictators or people who think they are Demi-Gods, the Gaddafi's, Museveni's, Mugabe's and Gbagbo's of this world. So whenever "the West" feel like lobbing a few bombs at them, they have my full permission.
