The Sole Of Africa is an ambitious sounding intiative that I first heard about from a distant member of my linked-in network. I don’t know the fella poysonally, but I do know he is passionate about the clearing of landmines and supports a number of charities that support that most worthy of activities.
the modern humanist accepts that, sometimes people fall out (if they were to disagree over the content of a 2000 year old story, for example) and that war ensures. However, I cannot reconcile why people would sanciton this inhumane activity – without any back out plans to reclaim the land for when they run out of soliders or bullets peace breaks out.
If it was a territorial dispute, this also quite often renders the wretched patch of earth in question quite worthless.
As our American friends say, go figure.
