Random News (Africa Edition)

Have you heard yet about the riots in Nigeria? Some interesting comparisons between news coverage of the riots and the terrorism in Mumbai.

Sending "messengers of death" to the DRC?

I believe america should be more concerned with Mumbai attacks than those in Nigeria.
1. We know why the Nigeria attacks occured and who perpatrated them.
2. India and Pakistan are both nuclear powers.
3. We rely on Pakistan for its support in the Middle East. If riots breakout or anything else that that would causes Pakistan to shore up its border with India it will make it harder for us to reduce troops in Afghanistan and Iraq.
4. Westerners were targeted. If there is a group of militants that wish to target Americans abroad then I believe it is more important to Americans.
