Ivory Coast Opposition Party Quits Gov't

Associated Press, ABIDJAN, Ivory Coast, Mar 4 - A leading
opposition party pulled its ministers from Ivory Coast's
power-sharing government on Thursday, charging that President
Laurent Gbagbo was destabilizing the west African nation's shaky
peace deal.

The Democratic Party of Ivory Coast decided its seven ministers
would boycott the transitional government arranged under a
January 2003 peace deal to "protest against Gbagbo's acts of
aggression and humiliation," against the bloc, said its
spokesman, Maurice Kakou.

"Gbagbo's destabilizing the peace process," he said in Abidjan,
the commercial capital of the world's largest cocoa producer. He
did not say what would induce the ministers back to the cabinet.

Minister of Reconciliation Dano Djedje — a Gbagbo ally — said the
boycotting ministers are the ones threatening the peace process.

Comment:
Similar events unfolded in Haiti recently - with political
power-seeking priests of the (white) churches(!) and the
foreign-funded(!) civic bodies insisting (with support from
foreign powers) that they would not seek a diplomatic negotiation
and that the democratically-elected leader must go. So much for
those who peddle 'democracy'.

The foreign whites, of the 'democracy and good governance'
stripes, insist that the (white-sponsored) opposition thugs in
African countries must be in power too - or else. Now, why should
the opposition be in power?

OK. Perhaps it is a good thing and we may assume that the whites
want a good thing for themselves too.
Why don't the Africans/third-worlders insist that the white
countries MUST also include their opposition in the government?
In the USA, the democrats, greens and communists would just love
to be in charge at the justice and education and housing and
commerce and environment ministries/departments. Of course it
wouldn't work - because the agenda of the two political parties
are (diametrically opposed and) different in significant ways. We
know that it wouldn't work in Africa either - since many of their
structures are fashioned after our western political systems.

And THAT is why we push this idiotic treachery in Africa.

Cursed?
Maybe.
But, NO. We are just looking out for OUR survival that is
predicated on continued availability, and unchallenged access to,
Africa's fabulous wealth. The longer the Africans are
pre-occupied with in-fighting and white-sponsored civil wars, the
less demand, and time they will have, for harnessing their
resources for THEIR own development and the cheaper we will have
the resources in exchange for old arms to both sides of the
conflict. Of course they cannot have an indigenous arms industry
or chemical industry or nuclear arms industry that may challenge
us now or in the future. Brutality of summary executions, rape
and social dislocation takes care of the emergence of any
upstarts in the wealthy African countries. 'War on terrorism'
takes care of the locals that may challenge us in the relatively
calmer African countries ...

We still maintain the control on African countries. And damn it:
between standing still and fleeing away lightning-fast, what
approach would the hungry lion FORCE the obedient(stupid)
antelopes to adopt?
