AfriCON: 'US applies genocide policy in Africa'

Press TV: Colonial France has sent some 350 death squad troops to the Central African Republic to counter the Seleka fighters, who have allegedly taken control of the capital city of Bangui. According to a senior official who spoke on condition of anonymity on Sunday, some 150 French military personnel were dispatched from Libreville, the capital of Gabon, a day after 200 French troops arrived in Bangui. There are many mineral resources, including gold and diamonds, in the Central African Republic. However, the country is extremely poor and has faced a series of rebellions and coups since it gained independence in 1960. Source
