"Far from being able to provide aid and protection to their citizens, African governments and the vampirelike politicians who run them are regarded by the populations they rule as yet another burden they have to bear in the struggle for survival."


Martin Meredith, in The Fate of Africa

i am afraid the author is doing prejudice to the vampires when she describes the politicians as vampirelike. the politicians are simply worst than vampires. sad but true

i suggest you replace the word African with Arab...

"Far from being able to provide aid and protection to their citizens, ARAB governments and the vampirelike politicians who run them are regarded by the populations they rule as yet another burden they have to bear in the struggle for survival."
