Taxi Driver and Mali's Islamist Rebellion

A CNN Report was descriptive in its elaboration of how the recent rebellion in Mali came to be. What is surprising, also, is that the rebellion, unlike the Arab Spring that tried to overthrow dictators, is being supported by those who fought for Moammar Gadhafi, the dead Libyan dictator. The French government has sent troops to install peace, but it seems that bloodshed is inevitable, as both sides were reported to have casualties.
