There aremore wars to not fight

14-11-2001 00:55

The war in central Africa, just like the Afghan scenario, is a long history of American support of terrorism. It has killed 2.5 million people over the last few years, significantly increased by the mining of and struggle for control of the Congolese / Rwanda / Burundi border region.
