Besides, stability in the African subcontinent is very much in our national interest.

Another AWFOF.

We either have monumental divergence in the definition of "national interest", or you are pulling banalities out of yout butt.

Would you care to elaborate with historical or even academic (i.e. useless) justification for that statement?

Got me on that one, I'm afraid. I don't speak in tongues.

Take your pick. Maybe you would be more comfortable with the statement "Stability in Africa is NOT in our national interest"?

Would you care to elaborate with historical or even academic (i.e. useless) justification for that statement?

I wouldn't waste any more time than I already have responding to your sarcastic post. There's room for civil disagreement here without resorting to insults, unless of course, that's just your personal style.
