It may finally happen. The African Union may send some troops but they are asking the West and the UN for logistical help.
Money quote:
The African Union is ready to send 4,000 to 5,000 troops "very soon — within days, weeks," African Union Commission Chairman Alpha Oumar Konare told The Associated Press.
But Konare said movement depends on logistical help from "Europe, America and the United Nations especially."
So far, he said, there has been just talk about assistance.
"Sometimes people speak big, but when it is time to give big, they are not willing," Konare said.
Will the USA and some other nations step up to the plate? We always hear the phrase, "Never again." Yet, it has happened time and again.
Rambling about soccer: LA Galaxy, IF Elfsborg, Falkenbergs FF, Liverpool FC, Queens Park Rangers, and LAFC. Also random rambling about Star Trek, LA sports (Dodgers, UCLA, Kings, Lakers, Rams), politics (centrist), faith (Christian), and life. Send comments to rrblog[at]yahoo[dot]com.
