Connecting the dots is a huge undertaking since people refused to debate the real issues. The incompetence of mainstream media is being replaced by poor research by some commentators which is a reason your on ground experience is vital in this crisis. The main actors are yet to show themselves but hey, what is new? We have been here before. South African investment banker <a href="http://www.ted.com/talks/view/id/154" rel="nofollow">Euvin Naidoo</a> explained why investing in Africa could make great business sense in June 2007 at TED Africa and my question to him included the above. I also accused him of not using the word <strong>accountability</strong> enough. Of course, I received the usual "white man posing as African" hatemails. Today 12M S.Africans are without jobs in a supposedly prosperous part of Africa is a tinderbox. The world food crisis and credit crunch has not helped but opportunists like <a href="http://nigeriawhatisnew.newsvine.com/_news/2008/04/20/1441802-zulu-fighter-goes-on-the-attack-against-robert-mugabe" rel="nofollow">Zuma</a> poorly understand macro economics, violence is the only lingua. Could that be the catalyst?

Consequently, it has also put at risk their chances of achieving the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) by 2015.
