Guinea leader's wound may end junta rule
Even before Guinea's military strongman was wounded in an assassination attempt and airlifted to Morocco for emergency surgery, top diplomats were discussing how to force him out.
One option: Offer Capt. Moussa "Dadis" Camara a villa in another African country to get him to leave the nation he has terrorized for the past 11 months.
Now that Camara is in a Morocco hospital with a bullet wound to the head, some diplomats and experts say this is the best thing that could have happened to Guinea, offering the West African country a chance to rid itself of military rule. They say that even if the rogue leader does fully recover, the international community will pressure Morocco to keep him from returning.
