Africa
MOVING BEYOND THE JUSTIFICATION OF WAR 
Many African states are former colonies of Britain. As a result, many
African Churches have adopted Britain's support of a just war. This
concerns African countries because Africa is rife with feuds and
ethnic rivalries. The Churches have to step in and remind church and
political leaders to listen to the Archbishop's suggestion that
differenes can be sorted out non-retributively, in the direction of
"creative non-violence" and gain the support of those of pacifist
commitment and those who encourage non violent solutions. B.T.
