Do you know what it means to establish a millitary base in another man's land?

1. What do you think will happen if perhaps there is war between Russia and and any African country?

2. Can you go to their country to build a military base?

3.Do you know Gadaffi got into trouble with US because of the airbase built in Libya?

You don't understand.? Ok. A decade ago Africa was a relatively stable and peaceful continent. Sure there were isolated cases of unrest but it was mostly localized. But ever since since the West decided to make a pivot to Africa, starting with NATOs bombardment and setting up of bases, the continent has been irreversibly damaged. In under a decade Africa has overtaken the Middle East as the terrorist capital of the world. The deadliest terror group In the world is African. The more foreign military presence the worse Africa's security situation has been.

Today the following countries are in turmoil:

Nigeria
Cameroon
Niger
Mali
Burkinafaso
Chad
Egypt
Libya
Sudan
Central Africa Republic
Kenya
Uganda
Ethiopia
Somalia

You don't see the correlation between increased foreign presence and the unrest that has bedevilled Africa? In West Africa alone the U.S and France have bases in

Cameroon
Niger
Chad
Mali.

Yet Boko Haram has been waxing stronger.

isnt it funny that US blocked arm sale to Nigeria during Jonathans rejection of same sex marriage(claiming human right abuse) and banned thier allies from selling to us or even having arms plane transit over thier allies air space, yet boko haram got several airdrops of arms including mines and surface to air missiles

Truth is Lake chad has brent crude oil and they are playing politics about it

What's the use of the link when Wheelus airbase is a common knowledge.
Wheelus was built before the emergence of Gadaffi but as a true pan-africanist who understands independence, he sent the imperialists out of Wheelus and renamed it.

What happened after they killed him? The US quickly returned to the base.

One question you should then ask yourself is "was US war against Gadaffi a fight for Libya or a fight for oil and Wheelus?

Africa need any ally with a missile defence system, because next world war would be about drones and misslie.. if not for russia arming iran, they wont have blown off the sky US stealth drone(who knows what the drone was carrying) also without US military base in UAE sea pirate would have fustrated smooth oil sales in the gulf region, and if not for US base in south Korea Kim would had done his worst..
