IN the NEWS - Wars & Rumors of Wars

More Wars & Rumors of Wars
(& cannibalism too)
Mali
The rebel forces that took over northern Mali in western Africa are threatening war with the west. Not only that-but the U.S. & France have been backing the buildup of African nations to invade and defeat these muslim gangs.
"If the Western countries send troops, that will be fine. We are prepared for war," said Oumar Ould Hamaha, the military leader of the Movement for Oneness and Jihad in West Africa, known as MUJWA, which is an offshoot of AQIM. "If they don't come here, one day we will attack them. If we cannot do this in our time, our sons and the next generation will attack the West." TheIndependent

Congo
In the Congo there has been warfare & cannibalism (yes-cannabilism in the 21st century of "enlightened man").

"Five men were attacked and killed by a mob in the cities Manjengo neihbourhood. A FRANCE 24 Observer who works for a local radio station was at the scene the following morning and saw burnt corpses. FRANCE 24 journalists have viewed footage filmed that morning showing people crowding around the corpses and a young girl biting off a piece of burnt human flesh. The video was too shocking to publish here. Right by the bodies, people were walking around with bottles of alcohol in their hands [another witness reports some present were on drugs]. When we got there, a young girl asked us: “Do you want me to show you what we do with criminals who come here?” Another girl insisted: “Yes, go on, show them!”, and, egged on by the group of people around her, the first girl bit into a piece of burnt human flesh.FRANCE 24 journalists have seen footage showing this scene, but have decided not to publish it due to its highly disturbing nature.] Footage showing the girl biting into the burnt piece of flesh was broadcast on two local television channels in Goma: NishapiTV and Hope Channel.

Syria (U.S. troops begin build-up)
U.S. troops are massing slowly in Turkey along the Syrian border. Also, about 17,000 are supposedly heading quietly back into Iraq along the Syrian border.
"Some 400 U.S. and Dutch NATO troops were massed on Turkey's Syrian border Friday amid fears besieged President Bashar Assad was poised to use chemical weapons.
The soldiers were beefing up Turkey's border and readying Patriot missiles three days after NATO agreed to deploy the MIM-104 Patriot surface-to-air missile system in Turkey. Ankara had requested the installations as a defense against a Syrian missile attack, possibly with chemical weapons." Military.com
