		<description><![CDATA[&quot;...French occupation and resource extraction in Africa is what I meant.&quot;

It&#039;s usually more productive when we&#039;re specific early on.

&quot;Those same forces now reappear as social workers.&quot;

When we look at the full context, it seems like colonialism is often a good thing.

&quot;Perhaps you have some insight as to why Frontpage is doing a massive waxwork on Black criminality this week.&quot;



I honestly didn&#039;t notice any particular trends. I personally don&#039;t think it has anything to do with race other than the fact that people tend to organize socially around their kin and people they identify with. Noticing these trends is not ipso facto racism.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This article is pointless, but I can&#039;t help but notice that everything north of the this &#039;line of democracy&#039; is muslim and everything south of it is (mostly) non-muslim.

Perhaps France has something else in mind with all this intervention? Maybe a permanent partition of Africa into a muslim north and a non-muslim south like India and Pakistan?

Just a thought.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[We tend to not have emotions about things in areas where we are amoral or morally ambiguous. When people are prone to write books that recast their pasts, such as Horowitz or Wiesel, the only characterizations that wound are those by former comrades.  The Sol Stern stuff is good reading. I agree with the part you said about how good sensible leadership can be characterized as colonialism, but French occupation and resource extraction in Africa is what I meant. Those same forces now reappear as social workers. Perhaps you have some insight as to why Frontpage is doing a massive waxwork on Black criminality this week.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Some times good sensible leadership can be characterized as colonialism. Almost anything can be characterized as colonialism.

&quot;The fateful day that David failed to take over the Black Panther Party and flip it into an organ of militant Zionism through financial blackmail has yielded this festering, 40 year attempt to get revenge.&quot;



For some reason your characterizations are not that meaningful to me.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Jerome is another Quixotic do gooder who thinks that the west can save Africa from itself, it can&#039;t. There is also western leaders who think that the west needs Africa, it doesn&#039;t, Africa needs us for the all the goodies it can get. You want to stabilize the regions? Help the Christians stave off the muslims, for a start, then you have a basis to work off of, anything else is a fools errand. Put the strongest tribal leader in charge and then change as often as needed. Corporations are going into these regions because of the instability and have taken matters into their own hands because western govts get all weepy when they have to kill people and destroy things to pacify a region. Why do you think oil, gas, pipelines and shipping companies have private contractors to get the job done when govts are afraid to?]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Seriously, is someone like David Horowitz, who grew up a communist household, going to try to take over the Black Panthers?  He was a red diaper baby.  He attended Communist summer camps in the Allegheny Mountains.

So you think Betty van Patter murder was a good thing?  

No, you cannot quite bring yourself to say it.

So you use the EUPHEMISM of &#039;incident&#039; instead of &quot;murder&quot;.  What a coward.

Whenever I see an EUPHEMISM used I know the person is a two faced snake.

Maybe you are not a coward. Maybe you think your argument in your eyes is less persuasive if you use the word murder and say that is not something to be upset about.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Vitenberg, you propose an ambitious program for France. It is noble in intent but it will take a long term commitment. Let&#039;s indeed praise Mr. Hollande for France&#039;s renewed effort as he fills a vacuum created by Mr. Obama. Indeed this may be an pleasant unintended consequence to Obama&#039;s &quot;lead from behind&quot; policy. After all, France and the UK were always more suited for benevolent colonial practices ... we have no such tradition.]]></description>
