Don’t hold your breath waiting. This is the same international community that did nothing to stop the 1994 Rwandan Genocide (700,000 + killed), or the 200,000 killed plus about 2 million displaced in Sudan's Darfur region since 2003.
As a matter of fact, the UN monitors have just evacuated from a south-eastern town after two of their civilian staff were injured in rioting.
With Zimbabwe to the south in an economic melt down, there is not a whole lot of good news coming out of Africa these days.
