[lbo-talk] that's cold!

[Joseph Wanzala]

Already we have an early candidate for memorable lines from the annals 21st 
century film, according to a review in the SF Bay Guardian, the Nick Nolte 
character, by way of explaining to a local African dude why there is no 
Western (US) intervention to stop the carnage says: "You're not even a 
n-word, you're an African".  While these lines are powerfully poignant, they 
help mask the fact that there was heavy direct involvement in the events 
that unfolded in Rwanda and later in the Congo from neighboring states, 
especially Uganda, as well as Western countries particularly France and the 
United States.
