Extractions: The Lockheed AC-130H has participated in many notable combat operations since the end of the Vietnam War including the attempted rescue of the crew of the USS Mayaguez in 1975, the Grenada operation in October 1983, Operation Just Cause in Panama (1989-1990), Operation Desert Storm in Iraq (1991), Operation Restore Hope in Somalia (1993-1994), and Operation Deliberate Force in Bosnia (1995). On January 31, 1991, the first AC-130H was lost in combat supporting coalition forces engaged in ground combat during the battle of Khafji in Operation Desert Storm. A second aircraft supporting operations in Somalia was lost on March 15, 1994 when its 105-mm cannon exploded while the aircraft was airborne. A much-feared World War III never came to pass in the 20th century. In fact, the Cold War ended in 1989 with the thud of the falling Berlin Wall and the colossal statues of Lenin rather than with nuclear bombs. Instead, many regional wars broke out both during and after the Cold War, caused by centuries of ethnic and religious conflict that had been held in check by colonization and occupation. There were military operations overseen by supranational organizations, such as the United Nations or the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO), which enforced treaties or helped with humanitarian activities. The world looked to the United States, as one of the two superpowers, to lead the way in these conflicts, a position that did not always make it happy.

Extractions: Tuesday, March 5 By Vincent Nwanma, Official ADF III Rapporteur "Nothing will do Africa a greater good than having a passport that every African can have access to," Prof. Adebayo Adedeji said during question and answer segment of the second session of the ongoing Africa Development Forum. He stressed that free movement of people must be one of the first issues to be addressed by the proposed Africa Union. Adedeji had earlier delivered a paper on "The History and Perspectives for Regional Integration in Africa," in ADFIII plenary session 2 chaired by Prof. Abdoulaye Bathily, Vice-President of the National Assembly of Senegal. Successful economic integration in Africa will also require a concomitant political integration, Adedeji said, stressing that the latter is a precondition for the former. "To pursue economic integration successfully, it must go hand-in-hand with shared political values and visions," he said. Adedeji noted that "excessively economistic approach" to integration was one of the reasons for Africas failure to integrate. While African countries were attempting to achieve economic integration, he noted, some of them were at each others throat, a situation that was clearly averse to a meaningful integration. "How can you disagree politically and cooperate economically?" he asked.

History Somalis claim descent from Arabian families who settled on the Somali coast 1,000 years ago. Although there undoubtedly is an infusion of Arab blood among Somalis, historians and linguists trace the origins of the Somali people to a much earlier time in the region. While scholars still debate the origins of the Somalis and the time of their entry into present-day Somalia, there is no doubt that they were in the region several hundred years before the first recorded use of their names in the early 15th century. Among ancient Egyptians, Somalia was known as the Land of Punt and was renowned for its frankincense and myrrh, which it still exports. Descriptions of the northern inhabitants of the region are found in The Periplus of the Erythrean Sea , an A.D. 60 Greek guide to sailors, and in Ptolemy's

Extractions: SOMALI BANTU CULTURE PROFILE CHAPTER C ONTENTS P REFACE ... IBLIOGRAPHY SCROLL TO: The Af Maay Dialect Literacy Language and Literacy The Somali language has distinct regional variants. The two main variants are Af Maay (pronounced af my ) and Af Maxaa (roughly pronounced af mahaa ). Both are Cushitic, with virtually all Somalis speaking at least one of these languages. Af Maay, also know as Maay Maay , serves as the lingua franca in southern Somalia as an agropastoral language while Af Maxaa is spoken throughout the rest of Somalia and in neighboring countries, including Kenya, where the refugee camps are located. Both languages served as official languages until 1972 when the government determined that Af Maxaa would be the official written language in Somalia. This decision further isolated and hindered southerners, including the Bantu, from participating in mainstream Somali politics, government services, and education. Af Maay and Af Maxaa share some similarities in their written form but are different enough in their spoken forms as to be mutually unintelligible. While the main language in the Juba River valley is Af Maay, some Bantu in traditional villages do not understand it at all. These Bantu still speak their ancestral tribal languages from Tanzania (primarily Zigua), with Swahili occasionally used as a common language. In the refugee camps, some Bantu adults have taken it upon themselves to learn English

Extractions: COMESA History 1. At the first and second conferences of independent African States, held in Accra, Ghana, in April 1958 and in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia in June 1960, respectively, economic problems to be faced by independent Africa were discussed. There was a consensus that the smallness and fragmentation of post-colonial African national markets would constitute a major obstacle to the diversification of economic activity, away from a concentration on production of a narrow range of primary exports, to the creation of modern and internationally competitive enterprises, which would satisfy domestic needs and meet export requirements. It was, therefore, agreed that African countries which had gained political independence, should promote economic co-operation among themselves. 2. Two options were advocated for the implementation of the integration strategy in Africa: a) the Pan-African, all-embracing regional approach, which envisaged the immediate creation of a regional continental economic arrangement; and b) the geographically narrower approach that would have its roots at the sub-regional levels and build on sub-regional co-operation arrangements to achieve geographically wider forms of co-operation arrangements. 1. The origins of the COMESA can be traced as far back as the mid-sixties. Before the Lagos Plan of Action and the Final Act of Lagos were adopted, the countries of Eastern and Southern Africa had already initiated the process towards creating an Eastern and Southern African co-operation arrangement.
