our enduring friendship with BeninMeanwhile, back in the real world, 99% of Americans wouldn't notice if Benin disappeared tomorrow. Today, they couldn't put it out on an unlabeled map.
Heck, I don't think I could, and I'm pretty good with geography.
To: Nachum
Unless it’s a disguised military jump-off base, this is a huge waste of money. Follow that money—does it go to local contractors, and if so, who are their contacts to the US government? Obama relatives? Or does it go to US contractors using US fair wage labor? I would think a decent, protected embassy could be built for roughly 1/5 the price in Africa.

Have you ever been in Benin? Great place for our dear leader to take the wife and kids on their next vacation. They have some of the finest grass huts this side of the Nile. Wookie can put on nothing but a grass skirt and feel right at home.

Why do we even spend $5 - let alone millions and millions - on a collection of folks so useless even our government had to create a “Ministry of Useless Marshmallow Majors” in order to give them gainful employment.
