No african nations talking about it any more, and most are in a considerably worse position then they were. Its further away then it ever was now.
As was intended. The games there are still playing out, in Nigeria france is selling weapons to both sides of the conflict, including a group that target Christans which shows their Order of priorities:
Its fine to sell to groups killing Christans, as long as everyone involved is black.

Here was his outline, yeah he wanted an African union to rival the EU model, which would have included currency and nationalisation of strategic mineral resources, oil, cobalat, uranium and gold, he also wanted food strategy and pooling to make Africa food secure.

It was ambitious and I still hope to see it one day.

Now imagine European leaders thought process to what this competitor would mean or for the US who buys on the cheap from there.

If similar was proposed for the middle east imagine what that would represent.

Suddenly the destabilising games make sense

Since then its only gotten meaner and better at this game.
Yes, Uncle Sugar has a long recorded history of interfering in other governments' governing.

Still, my recent thinking about "The Deep State Oligarchy Conspiracy" is about how Uncle Sugar got this way. Most members of the Republicult™, and many members of the general public, do not understand, or do not really care about the disproportionate influence our mostly shadowy oligarchy has on our country, and our lives. And so, it amuses me to label this particular influence a conspiracy. But, if you disagree with me about this, I'm fine with it. After all, I am easily amused.



Perhaps its just a conspiracy theory in the US so, to every nation outside that has been on the other end of it, its painfully transparent.



I'm sure Libya wasnt a pleasant place to be, and he was a dictator, but the country had universities and international airport, better rights for women then they have now and good access to medical care. I wont gloss over the atrocities, the guy treated the darker skinned africans like slaves, eliminated his competition.

But none of those things are the reason he is dead, it was for championing a single currency for Africa.

But while we are on conspiracy
Its not just limited to the US, the EU do it to, in Africa. Beloved Muammar was assassinated under the direction of Clinton and Nicolas Sarkozy to cover up his dirty work, which he eventually got prosecuted for.

The US has strategic interests in keeping the middle east destabilised and not too friendly, Israel is incredibly useful for that goal.

In exchange Israel is given licence to perform colonial displacement and murder of the native peoples. It's a symbiotic relationship. I wouldn't be surprised if the attacks on Iran didn't originate with Trump but were requested.

Being anti-colonial is equated as be antisemitic, but that only holds true if you respect peoples religious beliefs, which I don't. I don't believe in their Imaginary  Friend any more than I believe in the Muslims Imaginary friend or the Christan's or whatever flavour they want to put on it, no more than I believe in my own God Eris, exactly as she commanded.
So Instead I see a Colonial nation saying to the western world "you all got your turn now its mine". There are mitigating factors, there are neighbours who want to wipe out Israel (that their government actively encourages and ensures will continue indefinitely), but the bottom line is we have a colonial power expanding its borders in a land grab, destabilizing its neighbours on purpose, and goaded on by the all the previous colonial powers that prop it up in the western nations support, weapons and diplomatic leverage, worst of all being the United states.

That's come back to bite them though, listening to Netanyahu has led to the objective most humiliating strategic military failure the US has experienced in recent history, maybe ever. Vietnam, Iraq, Afganistan you can argue the US got something out of it,  but this was something baffling to watch unfold.

Before the attacks Iran didn't control the Gulf of Hormuz, it does now, Trump even tweeted day before yesterday calling it "The Gulf of Iran" imagine that. Trump is often lauded for calling-it-as-it is.

The Gulf of Iran. It wasn't before. It is now.

Maybe, just maybe, this will give the US pause to its horrific foreign policy (and I don't just mean under Republicans) that it has pushed since world war two. Maybe Congress might end these STUPID executive orders at least for military power and centralise that with themselves again.

But for now I am enjoying this, its hilarious to see the this backfire so dramatically.

Iran state media with a banger of a tune on the fat orange pedophile

If the dems had riz like this we wouldn't have to deal with these retards again

Definitely not above that, his betrayal of his Christian followers feels baffling they ever thought he was anything but a vice pit but I guess picking a fight with the pope was that final too far point

Is he the anti christ? no. Is he Caligula, yes, if Caligula was also somehow the horse

A war with Russia outright in Europe is very unlikely.
Though there is a lot of support for Ukraine in Europe, and Europe needed to present a unified front, there is a lot of sympathy for Russia from Greece, Italy, Hungary, Spain Ireland and Portugal.

But to actually understand that you need to know what is motivating Russia. US interference in Poland, the Radar base and missile placement antagonised them, but they dont have any Colonial goals, what would they gain by invading europe, fuck all, and they wouldnt be able to hold it.

It is true that Eastern Ukrain were largely sympathetic too and culturally "more russian", granted it was mostly because they were propped up by russia economically to support that.

If there were going to be any more land grabs they will be limited to Eastern Latvia which has a similar cultural thing going on.

I mean its obvious there will be reprisals, but that "sure yeah whatever" attitude is quite funny.

I love how they insisted on Charlie Kirk being beatified, but the troops who died serving their country are to be ignored becuase it somehow takes away from Trumps Iran win.

Iran has a lot of problems, but this is pointless murder of civilians. Firing missles blindly into residential targets and schools killing children isnt going to overthrow the government. Nor will calling on its citizens, they are not armed, trained and have very in the little in the way of of resources to combat their government. Any protests have just led to deaths in the thousands.

This accomplishes nothing.

Allow me to suggest moving faster than that.

Weapons and defence already started and will increase every year, what i mean is:
All energy, water, electrical, medical etc have quietly been told no more azure, google cloud or AWS. We got a consultation and it was "when can you have extracted non eu services"

I suspect the more innertia or pushback businesses provide, the more aggressive the eu level legislation on this stuff will be.

They dont just want defence independence, they want everything down to Mastercard out of Europe within a decade
