Thanks Mojo for linking to the story. As you mentioned in an earlier post, the Ivory Coast tends to get ignored, which seems to be the fate of Africa in general. There is more information in CNN's story at http://www.cnn.com/2011/WORLD/africa/04/04/ivory.coast.unrest/index.html?hpt=T1

Here is piece of good news. "Ivory Coast Strongman Laurent Gbagbo arrested" at http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2011/04/11/501364/main20052728.shtml?tag=stack

May the next dictators to go be Kaddaffi and Bashir of Sudan, who has been indicted for war crimes by the International Criminal Court.
