Speaking of US responsibility, an interesting note from the Associated Press:
A diplomat who requested anonymity because he is not authorized to speak to the press said that Sanogo, the coup leader, was among the elite tier of soldiers selected by the U.S. Embassy to receive military counterterrorism training in America. Sanogo, the official said, traveled "several times" to America for the special training.
Oops.
Looks like the US hasn't decided whether or not to cut off military aid to Mali yet, although the French have already cut the line. I had hoped that decision would be automatic.
