“Centuries of Backstabbing fails to save French.”
And so the US remains...
Going to be interesting, does Niger tell the Neocons to also get lost, or does Niger allow the Neocons to stay.
In the first scenario, the Neocons will have to decide whether they really want to start another war, in a country that is VERY HOSTILE to the West.
In the second scenario the Frogs will wondering whether we were in on the coup, considering that we trained Niger’s military, and we get to stay. I could see them getting a bit angry over this apparent double-cross.
Russia must be chomping at the bit here.
I can’t remember any modern day nation that got a long term deal out of the African continent.
The return is low.
Sure, the US could send our Negros to kill their Negros, I wonder how that would work out.
Wait, no I don't.
I don't see this working out well for the US presence either.
