African multilateral police.. Posted here Saturday, February 28, 2004 at 9:13:19 AM     This seems very sane. If only the US had been the leader in this kind of initiative. Leaders of African Union nations, meeting at a summit Saturday in Libya, are set to establish a multinational peacekeeping force aimed at resolving conflicts throughout the continent. Delegates from the Union's 53 member states say details of the African peacekeeping force -- including how it will be funded -- are to be approved before the summit concludes later Saturday. The multinational force would have the authority to intervene militarily, where necessary, to end local or regional conflicts. ********
