I still think mercenaries are a viable option. The Africans nations are unwilling and unable to police themselves, the western nations are not going to send their sons and daughters to be slaughtered for humanitarian principles, and China could care less. The UN has demonstrated a remarkable lack of effectiveness in sub-Saharan Africa as well.Originally Posted by Husar
Send in the mercs. I think western taxpayers would be more than happy to foot the very small bill that would be incurred. I'm still impressed with what Executive Outcomes managed to achieve in Sierra Leone, before the government bowed to the U.N. and revoked their contract.
Imagine what Blackwater could do in the Congo.
