AFRICOM says it will work closely with African nations and that its objective will be preventing rather than going to war.
The idea is that AFRICOM will promote democracy and security across the African continent. Some critics charge that AFRICOM could open a new front in the Bush's Administration's war on terrorism. They also claim that the U.S. is going after Africa's oil supplies.
But the question for now is: where is ARFRICOM headquartered as of today?
Is it Kenya's capital Nairobi? Maybe bustling Lagos, Nigeria.... Or is it the Egyptian capital, Cairo?
Where is this city that will serve as the new hub of American military affairs for Africa - a city that's already home to about 17,000 Americans?
