If you are saying that Africa has issues with corruption and blame should not be put on western corruption and that African corruption is a "different kind" of corruption (your words). Then It seem to imply to me that Africans are somehow different. Western corruption is a positive kind of corruption (you implied) since it benefits them. You even gave a hypothetical example.

So I drew my conclusions from your post. You might not think that way, but you sure sounded like that. Degrading your own race. You ought to be ashamed of yourself.

You do indeed go back and look for any word that you can use against me. What you fail to understand is what i am trying to mean. You feel so victimised that you read and understand it in a way that pleases you. Is it hard for you to accept that what ever comes out of your mouth or writing is not dynamite? You have to learn that not everyone will see it the same way your seing it. I just disagreed with you and what did you do use the oldest trick in the book (I think that we are not good enough that kind of thing). I criticise Africa and i should be ashamed of myself. Is it had for you to swallow your pride and admit that i disagree with you, i am entitled to my own ideas or opinions.

You have blown this out of proportion. You have turned it into something personal. I am now trying to defend myself. I have realised that you are no different from the man on the street who always sees himself as a victim( you are doing this to me because i am black that kind of person). You might be educated but to get that out of your system( always feeling like a victim) education a lone want help you there.

I bow out on this one because i dont like stooping to that level. The debate or discussion was good. I like it when people are thinking different from me it stimulates me and i learn from it. If everyone agreed with me it would be boring for me.

Did you actually read your last post before you placed it because it isn't making any sense. There is actually no way on earth that I can take this stuff personal. Particularly YOUR posts or opinion (if you can call it that). I don't live in MW so I can say that I care less about its future. I don't vote there, pay taxes there or even have much family there (none that I care about anyway). But I do have an opinion because I know stuff. I read a lot (you should too).

However, you seem to be turning you ignorance of foreign affairs to a vague argument about my misunderstanding of your post. Whatever!
