At leas...Hi Ray<BR/><BR/>I must say I kind of agree with you. At least on first flush Paul Collier's argument looks very worrying indeed (using AfriCom to police African elections. However there is a kind of sense in it - the issue is not actually one of intervention by the west, its of the promise of non-intervention if elections look rigged- I (still) can't tell if this is a brave rational take on a hitherto insoluble problem, or another example of western meddling. Either way I thought it was stimulating enough, and Collier is a very credible and committed player, that it was worth putting out there.
