Don’t know if it’s true or not, most likely not, but there’s a local rumor that we are running a gold mine on that base and stealing gold from them. The Russians will clear that up soon enough. Too late for us regardless.

Actually, I believe the base with the rumored gold mine is elsewhere in the country and runs the drone ops, not the subject one in Niamey with the airport.

France was getting a lot of its Uranium there for low prices. The people thought they were getting shafted and turned against the West in general.

But supporting French in their foreign adventures is not our job.

“They deserve what the Russians will do to them”

That’s nothing, wait for the Chinese.

We should destroy the facilities as we leave... No need to burn them. More like destroy the infrastructure...electrical and plumbing especially. Fracture the walls and foundations. Rip out the copper, all of it.

Screw’em.

The US State Dept has zero statesmen, nada, zip.

We sent Victoria “Cookies” Nuland there, to Niger’s credit, they wouldn’t meet with the pig.

Yet another loss for the CIA/State of Terror Dept.

Queers, NeoCucks, and transgendered harmed most !!

What you Africans need is a good dose of Globohomoism !!
