Thanks for the update! That map of Russian military agreements with Africa must be keeping western analysts up at night.

What a shock it must be to Borrell that the "jungles" see through the "cultured" West and refuse to sell their precious natural resources for beads & buttons.

Simplicius: "The problem with Western/European elites is they think everyone in the global south is stupid."

I've been thinking about it this for a while. I came to the conclusion that by far the worst thing to happen to the United States was becoming the only super power after the collapse of the Soviet Union. It allowed the greediest of our leaders and businesses to run around the world unchecked with no risk and exploit the rest of the world...while at the same time abandoning the citizens at home.

The EU is also probably the laziest partner to have as well. I constantly am reminded the largest business in the EU is a luxury handbag and make-up company. Which says more than I ever could about the continent.

It's tough to be the world's biggest imperialist and then to target imperialists as the bad guys, like France, like Great Britain, like Uncle Sam. "In God we Trust" printed on the US $. What do we do when we think the banks and the WEF are God?

Dear Simplicius, the quote by Josep Borrel is a funny fake made up by a Russian humorist, he posts ONLY funny political fakes which he made up himself. Here is the original joke https://t.me/lastoppo/2240

Just cause I got on early, the Mahabharata begins with a gambling game where all the rulers playing the game put their money, their lands and daughters, everything into the big gamble that they would win. Africa, the global south. Asia, the silk road. Ukraine and European security. A lot of chips on the table. President Biden, where are our fallout shelters? Duck and cover or negotiate peace? Why is that so hard?

The positive alternative is to join in the release of world economies and celebrate diversity economically. Aren't we all about diversity? Funny thing that. Guess not. Not for blacks in Africa.

I would like to take a different angle on this story. If you go to Google Earth and find the country of Muritania, from the only airport you will find a John F Kennedy boulevard. The man who was in Muritania asked an elderly cab driver back in 2005, who was John F Kennedy. The cab driver thought for a while, then said: He was a good man who fed the poor. It is true, JFK used to send US surplus wheat to poor nations and deliver it free of charge. Putin is doing the same. Some day there might be a boulevard somewhere in Africa named after Vladimir Putin. But, I will guarantee it there will be no boulevard in Iraq named after G W Bush.

It is time to end the reign of the Globalists and their psychotic bureaucratic servants. It is time, for we, the human race to lift everyone on this planet from the imposed despair of poverty into the plenty of friendship and fair trade.

What is truly happening is simple. We the people have come to realize that we all come from one soul into multiple connected individual souls. We all have felt what has been sacrificed in Ukraine to hurt Russia by soulless criminals and grifters. We share in the pain all of mankind feels.

The last few days, we all scoured for news from Niger, thinking the Globalists with their subhumans servants, better not step on a little country's people because they seek freedom. They'd better not try to prove to the World that they are in charge after, their cowardice and treachery in Ukraine.

I hope the Algerians send in their troops, armer and aircraft to support Niger.

I have been polite so far, so allow me a little transgression. If you hear this Macron then, vas the Faire foutre.

I wish someone would try to 'enslave' me through the dastardly tactic of paying for my groceries no-strings-attached. They're getting expensive!

Another excellent analysis. Unfortunately, I tend to believe the Evil Empire wins this one. Niger's Army is small, and ill equipped. And the US has a lot of resources in Africa. And to be blunt, Russia is somewhat busy now. Wagner could raise some merry hell as a covert force, but this is a bit early.

And not to be tacky, but that helps Russia also. Nothing like the colonizing and evil white Western world rolling tanks thru an African country to further the zeitgest. This will pave the ground for the eventual endgame, but France and the US will probably prevail here and now.

"Change is in the air, in the rising of the sun

Change is in the air, when the day is nearly done

And I don't know if it's illusion

Don't know if I see truth

But it's something that I must believe in

And its there when I reach for freedom..."

The Rothschild banking cartel must be shitting their pants. Their vast empire is collapsing from Ukraine to west Africa. These evil people are pulling out all stops to control the world. The mRNA bioweapon hasn’t killed enough people and a second or third pandemic will be met with strong resistance.
