"Tribal violence spirals in Kenya," screams the front page banner in the International Herald Tribune. "Kenya plunges into interethnic violence," says Le Monde.
But headlines can be misleading.
It is certainly true that the post-electoral violence in Kenya has taken on a tribal character.
Members of the incumbent (and controversially re-installed) President Mwai Kibaki's Kikuyu tribe have been pitted against other smaller tribes.
But that is only part of the story.
A more complete headline might be: "Tribal differences in Kenya, normally accepted peacefully, are exploited by politicians hungry for power who can manipulate poverty-stricken population."
But headlines are not really headlines when they are written like that - and few would criticise the international newspapers for their pithy style.
The ethnic and political violence in Kenya has renewed debate about whether multi-party democracy can be successful in an African context where ethnic loyalties are strong.
I think its so cruel, it just a occur recently , I can't believe i didnt knew anything about it.
