Your not talking about US involvement are you? As sickening as this is lets be real. Unless there's some commodity this region holds that's of vital interest to the US or an imminent proven threat to the US, there will be no response.

Unfortunately those people are on their own. I hate to say this but the death totals aren't high enough yet for the US to do anything but express there disdain over the act. Plus the US is unlikely to respond to the needs of what's viewed as a third world country. It will take a UN mandate to get the US involved.

Not at all the U.S., the responsibility lies on the newly elected government's ability to transition and use the military to, detain and now, possibly, execute Laurent Bgagbo.

The UN is aware of the situation and I would have to agree that, the murder/suffrage of Africans, is not the main focus of that authority. The number of innocent, unarmed people is not small, perhaps some have lost the transition of such an incident in the U.S. We know many examples, for one, Darfur. It would more than likely for the French or Germans, to lead any intervention to extract this regime...

Its really difficult to say whats going on with that new regime. The thing is we don't know for sure because US news agencies have proven themselves inconsistent with the information they submit for viewing.

Its a damn shame when internet sources like Youtube (videos) and The Guardian, are providing information the major US networks and newspapers ignore. Below is today's Guardian link

Agreed!

News we see can be delayed anywhere from 12-24 hours or more. Skewed, in some cases. I see you tube as an excellent up to time resource, if you know where to look. I tend to use many resources and experience as a rule of thumb.


It's a power struggle. The change of the guard and the old digging in in an effort to remain. Fatal.
Thanks for the link MO...

The U.S. already has more than enough campaigns going on.

To be honest, if there is no viable and financial to gain from intervening, I'm afraid the US and other nations are just going to stick there heads in the sand on this one.

There is some attention being drawn to this internationally, since a few weeks, just enough to raise an eyebrow but nothing much more than if someone would be cutting the head off chickens and scratchin'...

GYH,

You asked about outside military intervention.

From the recent history of armed conflicts around the world, there is sufficient evidence to show that where there is money to be made, intervention will take place. e.g Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya etc. And where there isn't there is no mention of intervention as well, e.g Bahrain, Ivory Coast etc.

A example of this is that was is taking place in Libya recently. I'm sure that when Gaddafi is toppled, there will be many companies from the west actively engaging with the new Libyan government for contracts.

Now put this in comparison with countries like the Ivory Coast and Bahrain, where the people just like those in Libya wants change but there is any natural resources to sell. Just like in Libya the Bahrani and Ivory Coast government are clamping down hard using force.

Why is it then that countries like Libya, the US and other countries are willing to go in hard, yet other countries like Ivory Coast, Bahrain, Syria etc they are not lifting a finger?

In an effort for continuity, I would like to refrain, from using any comparisons with other countries and Libya...

My focus is military intervention, for deadly force being used by a disposed government, not willing to cede to a newly elected President.

I made no mention of the U.S intervening in Cote D'Ivoire, is that clear

 

[WhenTheGoingGetsTtuff]

If you don't want the US to intervene. And you're not talking about the US intervening then who are you talking about? What military do you want to take action? The french?

The thing of it is, there's no money in it. That's all it is to it. And until there's some money in it, then there will be all kinds of military intervention.

ex president, Laurent Gbagbo, has been arrested by a coalition of international forces(UN peacekeepers), led by the French Military and Alassane Ouattara's loyalists. He had refused to leave since losing the election, four months ago. He has been holed up in a bunker for a week with family under the protection of some 1000 loyal troops.

The Ivory Coast remains the world's largest cocoa producer although production has come to a halt with the recent developments, although, clean up and rebuilding will take precedent, the economy will experience a boost with renewed interest in the region.

"It's a victory ... considering all the evil that Laurent Gbagbo inflicted on Ivory Coast," Ouattara's ambassador to France, Ali Coulibaly, said on France-Info radio

Update: Although, authorities, have fallen short of charging Gbagbo, of any murderous crimes, the charges listed below are still substancial...



Ivory Coast Charges Ex President Laurent Gbagbo

By BBC | Posted on: August 19, 2011
Adbijan, Ivory Coast - Former Ivory Coast President Laurent Gbagbo and his wife, Simone, have been charged with economic crimes.

The charges include looting, armed robbery, and embezzlement.

Mr Gbagbo and his wife were arrested in April after a violent five-month election dispute in which about 3,000 people were killed, and half a million displaced.

They have been under house arrest in separate locations in the north of the country.

Public prosecutor Simplice Kouadio Koffi said Simone Gbagbo was charged on Tuesday and taken into custody, while her husband was charged on Thursday.

The charges against the former president relate to the post-election period when Mr Gbagbo used state funds, including hundreds of millions of dollars from the central bank, in his attempt to stay in power.

He says that by charging them only with economic crimes, the Ivorian authorities are leaving the way open for the International Criminal Court (ICC). The court's judges are currently considering a request by the ICC prosecutor to open an investigation into the post-election violence.

The Ivorian government has requested the ICC's involvement, saying it is not competent to judge the more serious allegations of violent crimes.

Authorities have arrested dozens of people who served under Mr Gbagbo. All except the former leader and his wife had already been charged.

Human rights groups had criticised the government for holding the pair for months without charge.

President Alassane Ouattara has insisted that those on both sides of the political divide would face justice.

The violence in Ivory Coast followed Mr Gbagbo's refusal to accept defeat in presidential elections last November.
