I don't know, Bruv. My last post simply contained a counter argument, which is not necessarily my opinion but nevertheless still a valid point. Now I'm waiting for a counter argument back.

Well of course they accepted bribes, by several countries all told. Possibly the most corrupted/corruptible people on the earth.

If they discovered an uptapped oil source which would benefit the west, but was unable to buy it because of the Government there, I'm sure our leaders would suddenly care about Darfur a great deal.

Say what you will, Africa is (probably) the champion of corruption. Russia comes close.

That'll do for me......a poor continent with many rich pickings still available for those who can get them by any means.
Prime for such practices....so more chances to find them out, with their lack of sophisticated old boy networks.

But they have always been a poor continent, because they have always been waring, from time immemorial. They also seem do very little to help themselves.
