Chad’s government threatens to kick out US troops as Russia expands influence in Africa
CNN ^ | 4/18/24 | Haley Britzky

Posted on 04/19/2024 3:43:36 PM PDT by hardspunned

The US risks losing its military presence in another African country as the government of Chad sent a letter threatening to end a critical security agreement, according to four US sources, a move that threatens to cede more US influence in the region to Russia.

In a letter sent to the US defense attaché last week, Chadian officials threatened to cancel the Status of Forces Agreement, or SOFA, which determines the rules and conditions under which US military personnel can operate in the country. While the letter did not directly order the US military to leave Chad, the officials told CNN that it said all US forces would have to leave the French base in N’Djamena.

The Globohomo Empire not only has 750 bases in 80 countries. It has deployed 170,000+ soldiers in 159 countries.

Everywhere on earth except the Southern Border (and the Northern Border.)

Canada now has additional tens of thousand of phony refugees who arrive here, make a fraudulent refugee claim, collect welfare state $$$, and then run across the Northern Border. Which is also a sieve.

At some point do the NeoCons every say to themselves: "Hey, wait a minute... ?"

Your source even counts cemeteries as military bases which is how they get to those huge numbers.

Aviano Air Base in Italy for example they count as “at least eight” American military bases instead of as one.

Does Guam have 54 American military bases? Here is what most people think it has, including those who have served there.

1.-Andersen Air Force Base in Yigo, Guam
2.-Naval Force Maria NAS Navy Base in Maria NAS, Guam
3.-Naval Base Guam Navy Base in Apra Harbor, Guam

“”””The Globohomo Empire not only has 750 bases in 80 countries. “”””

Your posts drip with hatred for America everyday here at FR, and you aren’t even an American, you are on a conservative site yet want conservatism to die and go away.

For a foreigner you sure go nuts here.

“...you are on a conservative site yet want conservatism to die and go away. “

What is there to “conserve” at this point ? Overwhelming Leftist victories in every sphere ?


“For a foreigner you sure go nuts here.”

I’m not saying anything that everyone here (except NeoCons) isn’t saying.

Serious question: What are you “conserving” at this point ?

The Left has won everything.

(Or more accurately, the BoomerCons just handed it over to them)

Conservatives, boomers, Evangelical Christians, made Donald Trump President and are the primary force fighting the left.

What do you think is left of the right when they are removed? What is your fantasy about overcoming the conservative voter, the older voters, and the Evangelical voters?

I’ll ask again: what are you conserving at this point?

Limiting illegal immigration ?

stopping insane LGBT ?

end DEI/Quotas ?

How about a strong defence ?

How about a viable industrial base ?

How about a population that is physically and mentally capable of serving in the military?

How about a Constitution where the rights are real, actually protect everyone equally ?

Or a legal system that delivers impartial justice ?

Or an economic system where blue collar workers can afford to buy a house and start a family.

None of those things exist anymore.

You can’t “conserve” them. The are gone.

And there is nothing “exceptional” about the United States. Every Western country (especially the AngloSphere has followed this trajectory)

What is the plan ?

You strange person, we are the ones opposing it and fighting it and voting against it.

Just who are you going to replace the Trump voters with and why do you want to?
What fantasy is bouncing around in your non-voting foreigners head?

“...and voting against it.”


“Electionism” is how you got here. “Conservatives” won lots of elections while Leftists took control of institutions and seized power.

More voting is not going to reverse it.

Would you get to the point instead of playing this silly game you do.

If you want the American Trump voters to stop voting and go away and leave politics and this site, then what is your secret plan that you won’t reveal for this nation that you hate so much?

Spit it out.

Russian troops including 100 specialists to train Niger troops, have landed in Niger.

U.S. troops have been told by the Niger government, to leave . . . but the U.S. troops have not yet departed.

Apparently, both the Russians and a group of U.S. troops are at the airfield - see the video.

The Left has captured power by capturing institutions. The Left controls (or heavily intimidates) EVERY single major institution in the West.

They use their institutional power to rule regardless of what the public wants.

They achieved all that while never having popular support for any of their garbage. And never really having any overwhelming election wins.

But nevertheless, they seized control of the military, the intel, seurity and diplomatic corps, all the major police forces in the country, the legal system, all the major corporations, all the elite universities, every school system, all municipal, county, state and federal bureaucracies, all the major Christian denominations, the major financial institutions, the major cultural instiutions, entertainment and media all the major charities and Foundations.

It doesn’t matter what the election results are. The Repubs had overwhelming Presidential wins in 1972 and 1984 - didn’t change the trajectory at all.

You are not voting your way out of this.

The Bolshevilks violently seized power.

For the Left in the West it was just handed to them. That’s the problem.

The Left started in the Universities which went out of their way to hire leftists and socialists and communists to demonstrate that they were “open minded” and believed in the “marketplace of ideas”.

If you want to conserve your institutions, you have to police the culture and agendas of institutions. But that thinking goes against Enlightenment Ideas.

Which is why anything based on Enlightenment ideas were bound to fail by internal subversion.

The Russian Revolution didn't happen overnight. The Bolsheviks had been getting their ducks in a row for years before 1917, infiltrating the institutions in Russia, waiting for the right opportunity to strike.

You don’t have to tell me the problems in America, I know more about them than you ever will.

You do spend every day of your life listing them here though from your own homeland, you are about the most constantly negative poster I have ever seen at FR, what you won’t do is quit playing this game you are playing and post what is really on your mind.

Why won’t you speak up and say what is really on your mind? No conservatism, no voting, what is on that mushy mind of yours?

So far all you ever sell is surrender, submission, even opposition to the conservatives fighting the left.

They tried. And the Russian secret police were trying to root them out.

As you know, the top leadership was in Switzerland and were permitted passage by the Germans.

The nutjobs want “globohomo” America defeated and our children ruled by the CCP. Most are too shy to admit the ugly truth, though.
