US to help Africa fight terror
Edited on Mon Jul-12-04 07:33 PM by dArKeR
Abuja - The deputy commander of US forces in Europe, General Charles Wald, on Monday pledged Washington's support for African countries in their regional peacekeeping efforts and the fight against terrorism.

"We are doing everything we can to support African leaders on regional peacekeeping. We have been sharing information on terrorism issues with individual countries and regional groups in Africa," he said during a lunch meeting with the heads of Nigeria's army, navy and air force.

Nigeria, the west African economic and military powerhouse, was a major interest to the United States, he said.

"Nigeria is one of the most important countries in our area.... We would like to have more co-operation with Nigeria. We think it is crucial for both of us, given Nigeria's strategic importance."

More like murders and take over countries and steal their resources and put American puppets in power. (Known as American Democracy:
Friendly Dictators: http://home.iprimus.com.au/korob/fdtcards/Cards_Index.html )

No one in the world believe America anymore especially a Murderer as Bush. America's only hope is to elect Kerry/Edwards and hope they can restore faith, honesty... in America.
