Heard of Angola in the News Recently?

Well I haven't. I'm not a news junkie, in my opinion, but I've bought hundreds of pounds worth of newspapers in the last few years and I don't recall reading much at all about Angola. In fact, even when I was growing up in Zimbabwe I never learned much about the country.

But now they're in news because they are sending "ninjas" to Zimbabwe. Jesus. Actually, they're "Ninja paramilitaries" to be precise. So surrealism fades into horror when you learn that they wonder around in trucks with mounted machine guns on them.
