We love African countries. We love them even more if they are recent, chaotic, in conflict (preferably armed) and with huge human suffering, death and destruction. Have we gone mad? Did we torture kittens in our childhood? Not at all. We love such countries because they provide undeniable, in-your-face, actual, incontrovertible evidence of the nature of politicians; serious as fist in your face.
We weep for all those who suffer…
