I haven't read anything about the history of Mali but I take it that it was once a French Colony or some such shit, why else would France be trying to help them. I do know that Mali is a large country with plenty of places for Islamic rebels to operate or hide, so it may not be easy to eradicate or remove them, which the French say they are committed to doing.
I see where Britain & the U.S. are getting involved, so this could get interesting. I mean WTF, why miss out on all the fun.
