Kenya Church Torched, 50 Reported Killed

By ELIZABETH A. KENNEDY and TOM ODULA Associated Press Writers
NAIROBI, Kenya (AP) — A mob torched a church where hundreds had sought refuge Tuesday, and witnesses said dozens of people — including children — were burned alive or hacked to death with machetes in ethnic violence that followed Kenya's disputed election.
The killing of up to 50 ethnic Kikuyus in the Rift Valley city of Eldoret brought the death toll from four days of rioting to more than 275, raising fears of further unrest in what has been one of Africa's most stable democracies.
The latest violence recalled scenes from the genocide in Rwanda in 1994, when more than a half-million people were killed. The question facing Kenya is whether the politicians will lose control of the mobs, triggering a civil war.

Sure lets invade the world and we haven't recognized kenya's election. It's a tribal conflict now but the trouble started with allegation of unfair elections.

Leave it to the UN. The UN will colllect all the innocents in one place, then leave when the shit hits the fan, ensuring the bad guys a more complete victory.

Yeah they will, but that place isn't worth the life of an American serviceman.

Yeah they will, but that place isn't worth the life of an American serviceman. Its not worth the cost of our UN dues either, which was my point.

We don't even recognize our own elections anymore, so why should we care about Kenya's? :bang3:

If Kenya had a strategic position and a comic book dictator, Bush and Cheney would be wanking like crazy, ready to start the bloodshed.
And you never know, Kenya might be considering nuclear weapons!

we should protect those persecuted by muslims. that i agree with, and we dont neccesarily have to invade to do that.

Why should it only be Muslims? A lot of African and Asian nations are persecuted by non-Muslims. You are just picking out a scapegoat.
