Christian Music Lyrics by: Gospel Music
Rather than steamrolling Congo and forcing them to conform to a particular system of morals, I think exerting soft power on them - tariffs, conditional aid, etc. - would be more productive. Application of military force would empower anti-American forces in Congo and set the stage for a reactionary coup later on, just like Iran and Afghanistan.

I am going to have to disagree a bit on this one Will.
Africa is not the middle east (at least not yet), stopping the rapes of the Congo (along with the child slavery, and other war horrors and crimes etc.)is not exactly "imposing" our morality.
Dealing with the Lords Resistance Army would be much easier than dealing with Al Qaida or the Taliban as I would bet a majority of the people of the DRC would gladly assist with their removal.

Well, I reckon you know more about the political situation in Africa than I do, so I'll cede the point.

Yes, brother this is true, but I think it has more to do with the color of green than black....this time.
Although the Lords Resistance Army is an easier catch...the spoil isn't as large. America claims to be 'God-fearing' and for the most part they are, but one thing they have inherited from Israel is the love of foreign gods.
The Almighty Dollar is the god of the New Babylon. Take any bill out of your pocket and it tells you right on the back next to its 'image.'
