This is a fight between Christians and Moslems for control of the country. Sarkozy has chosen the side of the Moslems who have already slaughtered Christians - the way of Islam. More Christian deaths will follow, including Gbagbo.
I don’t know how much of a christian Gbagbo is. He’s no saint. Basically, it’s trading a so-called catholic dictator for a muslim dictator. So, I guess the catholic dictator is a little better.
You notice France in the lead again as the African nations battle their leaderships. IMO this is all about backroom deals for how the International Leaders will and are lining up the worlds nations as blocks for trade/commerce and resources...all eventually under a world governance.
It’s no secret that the Muslim nations have gained enormous power and wealth so must be an active participant now in how the world will operate within the guidlines that will be established. Thus world leaders are “joining” in upsurping who they will to establish those who can negotiate the deals ahead....so of course there will be Muslim leaders in the ME countries as their block is formed...despite the concerns of what this means in the long run.
