The problem here is the fact that we give billions of dollars in a blank check. That leads itself to temptation does it not.

As for the African not being able to govern himself. African immigrants achieve higher status than any other immigrant group and often assimilate the best. That argument is pure poppycock. Saying that is like saying all Europeans like to exploit and rape natives because it happened. Must be something in the water huh? Not to mention you fail to mention success stories like Kenya and Nigeria.

I really don't think you can write off the border issue here. In the western hemisphere all the natives were killed off or sent to Oklahoma(some say a fate worse than death) So the immigrant groups were able to build something that was there own. In Africa borders were drawn willy nilly. Now they should frankly get over-themselves but these men were fighting long before we found Africa.

As for the Russia Germany analogy, it's much easier to forget when you're developed countries. The leaders in Africa play on the poors fears.
