Cameroon Officially Enters Terrorist Fray!

The Islamic fundamentalist destabilization of northern Nigeria has often sounded like a faraway affair to many Cameroonians. With the recent kidnapping of French citizens in northern Cameroon, Cameroon has officially entered the terrorist fray. Let's see what Paul Biya will do with this. As far as I know, Cameroonian Muslims have generally been a peaceful lot, even though some of their leaders look at Paul Biya with critical suspicion - which concerned Cameroonian doesn't look at Paul Biya with critical suspicion? That Cameroonian Muslims have generally been peaceful says that the recent kidnapping has most probably not been masterminded in Cameroon or by Cameroonians. The root should be traced elsewhere. The root should be traced to recent French activities in Africa. France, posing as saviour, has often been our bane. After having brought poverty and corruption to Cameroon, they are now bringing us terrorism.
