Britain never was good with the 'colonies' , need I say more ? Not sure the Romans were either .
   I also recall the ' The devil you know attitude' , struck a chord way back then . 
And a SAM 3 missile attack ? Is not mentioned . Forget the details . 
Back then , no twitterverse , facebook , ..when did we get SABC ? 
    Yes Pleb , I like the Roman overtones . What did Mandela do about Rwanda , not much maybe , he had his hands full here at that time . Did we even have an ICC back then ? 
 Today ? 'The ICC is targeting black governments and officials '   Why ? 
  If the shoe fits ? 
really , Africa is a mess , mostly , sad yet true . 
  Now the Congo ? 
Here , we have 'Service delivery ' Protests '
