More than likely from a country competing with the US in Africa

I do not wish to be blamed for the Marxist in office now, or for the Skull and Bones in office before him. I've been fighting for my country, and the naive ones who want a radical solution condemned the Tea party after the media slashed and burned in their drive bys.

American soldiers should NOT be in Africa.
American money should NOT be in Africa.
I agree with some of your points, but I would guess that you have never been to Africa. Seems (based on your wording) that your knowledge comes from books and pictures.
I remember Africa differently. I remember crazy people with machetes hacking their neighbors. I remember dozens of bodies in piles, killed for being the wrong blood line.
It's hot, it's nasty, it's bloody, and it borders on what any person would call a civilization.
I wouldn't wish a trip to Africa on my worst enemy.
America needs to leave Africa alone and stop sending military hardware and soldiers, but mostly we need to stop sending money.

Preach it Brother! But that's a whole other thread I think.

Interesting how Africa has been depopulated in the last couple decades by War, Ebola, Aids and famine and drought. Leaving it wide open to colonization by anyone willing to take their capitol there and take over. Africans have been displaced to such an extent that they are virtually dependent on any country that will offer aid. They have become nomadic in search of aid stations, moving from refugee camp to refugee camp.

So? We are a powerful empire, we take from others to continue our first world life style. I'm content with that. I have no desire to live as the third world does and no other US citizens do either. There is a limited amount of resources in the world. Hey, we win and you loose. Sucks to be you.
When you are working in a factory stuffing boxes full of matches you may well change your mind on the above opinion.
Why would I want to do that? As I said, I have no desire to live as the third world does and I'm quite happy that the US CIA and military do everything they can to keep that from happening. There is a limited amount of resources in this world. Not everyone can live a first world life style. Life isn't fair, the world has always been a harsh place and always will be.

Uhhh. . . You do realize it was Europeans who originally colonized the Middle East and Africa and began raping and pillaging at will just to make a buck for the crown? Then, as if that weren't enough, they decided to draw artificial boundaries and call them "countries." This arbitrary throwing together of various religious, ethnic and tribal groups has led to years of civil war and unrest in many of these countries- and even a lot of genocide. Now the U.S. is stuck cleaning up the mess the Europeans left behind.
Get over yourself.

China has been pillaging African resources for decades. Where is the outrage. The current state of Africa is from hundred of years of European exploitation....again where is the outrage.....
