The only down sides of Milan:

Dear Chris,
I just read this article on the Christian Science Monitor, and I would like to know your opinion about the subject:
US Military Expands Role in W. Africa
http://www.csmonitor.com/2008/0411/p07s03-woaf.html?page=1
It describes some cooperation projects of the american Armed Forces in Liberia, and it debates the possibilities of the new AFRICOM.
Best regards
