Moving into Africa?

According to the NY Times our new Africa Command has helped Ugandan troops trying to defeat the Lord's Resistance Army, a truly inhuman group of people doing what they believe is their Lord's work, that is if you define Lord as Joseph Kony. We have not actually fought alongside the troops, but we have helped in planning how to defeat Mr. Kony and company. Not only did we help plan the operation, we also gave equipment and $1,000,000 in fuel.

Now, tell me again how we got involved in Vietnam.

Why is it that Americans insist on getting involved in matters that don't concern them? By all means, send in a military force large enough to take out these bastards once and for all, but don't play around with peoples' lives like its a game of checkers.
The US has a long record of being hopelessly inept at interfering in foreign conflicts - particularly in Africa. In fact, over the years they've proved almost as inept at it as the British.
