"how the head of the electoral commission was ‘bribed’ by the French and American ambassadors in Côte d’Ivoire"

From Joerg in Berlin:  ""How could our people celebrate 50 years of independence in 2010, and then be bombed in 2011, because of internal affairs? (…) Who remembers this nice 'international community' summoning Bush to let Al Gore take power after election fraud in the US in 2000? And ever since, France and the 'developed' nations have not stopped bombing us: they even ganged up to bomb Libya, now Mali, Central African Republic, … it’s like 'who is going to be next?' (…) We all need to know that Gbagbo stood for a higher fight, and bravely stood for his country. Because of him we all openly saw what happened in Côte d’Ivoire: how the head of the electoral commission was ‘bribed’ by the French and American ambassadors in Côte d’Ivoire, how Africa was bribed with stupid temporary seats on the UN security council (South Africa, Nigeria and Gabon), how the Nigerian president was called 11 times in a day by the French one (Sarkozy) to force the CEDEAO and ECOMOG to military intervene in Côte d’Ivoire, how Jacob Zuma (the president of South Africa) abandoned Gbagbo (like he later did with Kadhafi, in a 360-degree turn), how the African Union was fool of stupid cowards who all sided with the European union. (…) Our celebrated writer, Chinua Achebe said: 'There is that great proverb — that until the lions have their own historians, the history of the hunt will always glorify the hunter.'"
