My next door neighbour sells agricultural equipment to the Sudan, and regularly goes there to show them how to operate machinery and put stuff together, and he also advises them on agricultural methods. A year later he returns and the machinery is still where he left it. Rusting away.
In his own words, he will tell you how lazy and useless these people are, they just will not get up off their backsides unless it is to protest something.
Have to agree with those countries always being in some kind of unrest or other. They always have been and the new generations learn the same things so I don't think anyhting will ever change.
I can just pray that none of us get dragged into it , we have no business there except to anger them at us. So many problems to solve in our own country, we don't need more.
Scary to think how many of people from these countries are immigrating to our country and seemingly forcing us to change our laws to accomodate them.
