If Ecomog invades Cote d' voire over a political stalemate that has occured it would be the first time in recorded history that a country has invaded another country because the leaders failed to solve a political crisis. This situation could be likened to the fraudalent elections in the US between bush and al gore in 2000. Imagine if Mexico and Canada gave bush an ultimatum 'either you give up power to al gore or we will invade you' this is the same situation, the only difference is it involves african countries. When it comes to the situation in cote d' voire you have to ask yourselves several of questions. Why does the west insist that gbagbo be forced out of power even though the voting process had several irregularites? Why was the west and the U.N. so quick to declare quattara the winner without investigating the claims of mass vote rigging in the north? What exactlly is the U.N., and does it have any credibility when it comes to holding a neutral position on political issues? Who is quattara and where did he come from? And lastly, who benefits from an ousted Gbagbo? My fellow africans it's time for us to cut the leashes off and develope the ability to think independently. If france would like their puppet installed, then let them risk their own soldiers lives to do so, but for my fellow africans, do not be engaged in a war in which you have nothing to gain and thousands of african lives to lose.

it's amazing how few intelligent humans there are like you on nl.

what we usually see are a bunch of daft misfits who got dashed a visa somewhere, and they somehow think receiving a visa automatically confers intelligence and common sense.

thanks for your explanation.

yorubas say abo oro la nso fomoluwabi.

i knew there were people of ghanaian origin in ivory coast, and i suspect the sabre rattler is one of them, hence it's rather hypocritical of him to start threatening immigrants.

Akan people have been in the area which became the colony and then country called Ivory coast for hundreds of years. They are not immigrants. That saber rattler is unlikely to be an immigrant.

the logic is that no forigner is allowed to travel now
just house arrest or you may not come home arrive
