Why did this recieve so little attention from the West, why did everyone just leave? 3 guesses and the first two don't count. Those countries had nothing of interest to offer the US or Western Europe - no special oil reserves, no raw materials we just couldn't live without. The same was true for Sri Lanka (how many here know about the atrocities that have gone on in THAT third world country? Don't all raise your hands at once). The US is interested in fair play and human justice only in countries which pose a direct threat or have resources we feel we need. Everybody else can go to the end of the line, thank you.
