"It's tribal plain and simple."

That is true IN PART. However, the exploitation of Africa by various countries (England, Belgium, France, Germany, China, Holland and others) in the course of Africa's history has made tribal differences much more dynamic and the wars much more deadly.

A similar situation now exists in Canada and the US. When wars occurred between tribes, the loss of life was low. That was due to the weapons available and the philosophy of the warriors involved. Counting coup (touching the living body of an enemy was as prestigious as actually killing him--more so amongst the Sioux and Apache). Soon as ya introduce repeating rifles that all changes.

And it HAS changed very much in Africa. Today it not lever action Remingtons. Today it's AK 47s, C-4 or Semtex, RPGs and cell phones. And it should come as no surprise to anyone smart enough to breathe that GUESS WHAT?--Black leaders can be as corrupt as Yellow, Brown, Red and White leaders. The same damned industries are killing the same people all over the fucking world. Trying in ANY way to make this about colour is bullshit. It's about greed and the fact that 'Power corrupts; absolute power corrupts absolutely.' It's about manipulative bastards who could use a bad but brief headache. A very bad but brief headache.
