The Carter administration is responsible for helping start one of the most devastating proxy wars in recent history, by arming anti Soviet extremists in Afghanistan in July 1979. Whatever happened to those extremists, one might wonder?
He was literally the president. This is like Eisenhower warning people about the military industrial complex. Carter's public image as a humble peanut farmer turned president is just that, an image. Carter fought for "right to work" laws, was hostile to labour organising in his own peanut farm, and began arming what would become the Mujahideen in July 1979, which would then become the Taliban. He helped start the proxy war with the USSR in Afghanistan by arming political Islamic extremists.
The only thing NATO did was enforce the UN resolution to close their naval and airspace, and run sorties against Gaddafi.
"Oh they only bombed the country to ashes, no big deal". Do you hear yourself right now?
There were two resolutions United Nations Security Council Resolution 1970 contained a provision not to use the resolution to justify military intervention, and the suggested provision to include a no fly zone was rejected. It was the later resolution, Resolution 1973, which authorised the no fly zone, and was not unanimously agreed to. This is when France started bombing Libya and NATO assumed military command of the operation. NATO and UAE special forces were also on the ground in Libya, which is beyond what was stipulated in Resolution 1973. Without NATO air support and intelligence/command, NATO armament of rebel groups in violation of Resolution 1970, and special forces on the ground (arguably in violation of Resolution 1973), there is little chance the rebels would have won the war.
Please get off of the western propaganda train. I'm begging you.
When even News24 is saying this and going against the western narrative, you know it's obvious.
He overthrew Alpha Condé, 85, on 5 September that year, after taking part in the US Army's special forces commanders' course.
That happens to be the same training received by Colonel Assimi Goita, who is the same age, and was a leader in Mali's coup.
(The USA is not proud of that.)
Are you sure about that? I think the US is pretty happy with this, reduces French influence in Africa, kills the French sovereign neocolonial project of Francafrique. Gives the US room to operate in.
Yes it is, I'm commenting on it right now. You can import all your app settings from the Reddit version of the app too, if you still have it installed, or you still have your config file lying around. It's what I have done so I have a pitch black theme lol.
Honestly tuned out of the whole Marvel Cinematic Universe stuff after the Avengers Age Of Ultron movie. It all felt so manufactured and artificial by then already.
Going through spine surgery at a relatively very young age, and all the suffering beforehand. Revealed just how fake the world is and just how superficial a lot of things are.
I'm going to guess you're American, is it that the election of Obama to the presidency caused all the closet racists to lose all sense? Or something else.
What do you mean by this? I don't have much knowledge on the subject, but it seems like it had led to a bunch of social media village idiots (you know those YouTubers like the quartering) saying that "wokeness is killing videogames" and review bombing any game with a gay character in it.
