"they knew what they signed up for"

Imperial Africom has huge footprint all over Africa, but we gonna save $Ts by screwing American poor and disabled out of health care and jobs.

another question that needs to be asked is why are we even in Niger? why are we building a drone base there? why so many special ops in Africa?

Why haven't we heard anything from you so far about the soldiers that were killed in Niger? And what do you have to say about that?

Trump of course answered: Obama!

And the patriots here who are so triggered by kneeling during the anthem because they say it disrespects our servicemen and women and who shouted "Beghazi!" for months are nowhere to be seen.

920969689437757440 in regards to more recent contributions, this started back in 2011 when Homeland Security and AFRICOM began to consider adding Niger to the foreign terrorist list which eventually took place in 2013 as a result of Boko Haram being added to that list. At that point, advisers were deployed to Niger.

It doesn't explain what they are doing there now, what their mission was and why the White House is silent. Most likely Uranium related.

Most likely Uranium related. the pretense has always been about securing oil or minerals, ever since Shell and BP struck it rich in Niger back in the 1950's. and as usual, the narrative is about terrorism (even CNN's recent article states the case as if there is a verifiable clear and present danger to the U.S.).

Crawl MF'er crawl!Nacny Pelosi weighs in:

"Our fellow citizens have legitimate and high expectations:

(1) They expect us to protect and defend those we send to represent us,

(2) They expect us to move heaven and earth to help those representing us who are in harm’s way;

(3) They expect government to tell the truth in the aftermath of a tragedy;

(4) They expect we will not continue to make the same mistakes over and over again.

The people we work for yearn to see the right thing done, for the right reasons, and in the right way. They want to know that something can rise above the din of politics. They want to trust the institutions of government. So to fulfill the duties owed to those we serve and in honor of those who were killed perhaps we can be what those four brave men were: neither Republican nor Democrat. We can just be Americans in pursuit of the facts, the truth, and justice no matter where that journey takes us."

Seems reasonable. What do you think, Chris?

[djohn2oo8]

Do you not want to talk about SGT Johnson being left behind alive for 48 hours while he got mutilated?

[Chris]

I'm comfortable with the government I voted for handling the situation. Comparing it to Benghazi certainly doesn't shed any light on the subject.

Why were they sent into an ISIS Hotspot with an unarmoreed vehicle and told they were unlikely to face any ISIS resistance?

SGT Johnson and his family don't deserve the lack of respect they've gotten from our president and his supporters. they preach about the anthem and supporting our troops then turn around and spit in the face of a dead soldier and his family. fuck trump and anybody who loves him.

They didn't do a head count. Know why? because they were subcontracted out and not US Air support. Which means they didn't follow military protocol. Why would they be subcontracted out there? What were special ops doing on the ground?

[djohn2oo8]

Better yet why didn't Trump acknowledge what happened? What are they hiding?

According to Maddow, the administration’s decision to add the African nation of Chad to its revised list of travel ban countries may have been the first domino in a series of events that led to the deadly ambush in Niger.


This really was the deadliest combat mission of his presidency thus far, and it really did follow just days after a policy decision by his administration – an inexplicable, baffling, possibly mistaken policy decision by his administration. I mean, it’s being called a mistake at best by everybody who knows the region. Just days after that policy decision by his administration, our best and most experienced and most battle-hardened regional military allies in that part of the world pulled out of that part of the world and went home, and then American soldiers were attacked.

As an apparent result of the Trump administration’s policy decision, Chad pulled hundreds of soldiers from Niger, where they were assisting the U.S. in an*ongoing fight against terrorists in the region, including Boko Horam.

The reason behind Chad being added to Trump’s travel ban is even more stunning.*According to*NBC News, the African country was added to the list because they “had run out of passport paper.”

In short, Trump’s irresponsible decision to add Chad to his travel ban created a chain reaction that prompted the country to pull out of Niger, emboldened American enemies in the region, and led to the deaths of four brave U.S. soldiers.

Google that, faggot.

We need to feel the loss but we don't.

Too far removed now. This is all too easy.

On a more sober note, thankfully we have a press corps who digs and airs the dirty laundry. Obama and drones attacks as well. Way too easy. You know the college kids that skipped Vietnam or went reserves think about it. And you know those that stuck with the domino theory, and we just need more, think about it. Or at least it seems legit to hope they think about it. When one just walks into a Fd up situation you won't come out unscathed. Part of being human I guess, and bad timing.

Jesus. The whole point of bringing up Benghazi was the fact a few of you were quick to rush to judgement before any final conclusions. Some questions were asked.

The right wing's go-to conspiracy is "arms deal gone wrong." They trotted it out for Benghazi and Vegas.

Rachel Maddow's Brilliant Analysis of the Niger Attack Turns Fox News Heads to Mush

o begin with, it must be noted that the headline above is fake news. The heads of those on Fox News, and their viewers, were already mush.

That said, their exposure to Rachel Maddow's program didn't make that situation any better. On Saturday morning the "Curvy Couch" potatoes of Fox and Friends spent several minutes with stunned expressions and babbling recriminations as they struggled to unwind Maddow's commentary.

On Friday Maddow laid out a detailed and well researched examination of what might have led up to four Green Berets being ambushed in Niger.

The gist is that Donald Trump's curious inclusion of Chad on his latest Muslim ban may have caused them to pull back on their anti-terrorism efforts in Niger. Since they were effective at suppressing groups like Al Shabaab and ISIS in the region, it left our troops vulnerable to attack.

"Maddow Blames Trump For Niger Attack."

They began by asserting that the events Maddow discussed were entirely separate and had no possible relation to one another.

Then he accuses her of spinning a wild conspiracy theory as "the leader of the left." But perhaps the most idiotic remarks were offered by co-host Abby Huntsman, who said this"

"It’s dangerous when the media starts having conversations about this and putting in their own theories that are, as you said, completely unrelated to what actually happened. It’s dangerous, not only for us in terms of figuring out what did happen.

But it’s dangerous to the families that lost loved ones over there because they’re the ones who should be the focus of this conversation and somehow we go down these roads oftentimes and it’s such a distraction and it’s such a disservice to this country and what our job is in the media.”

Really?

Fox News is whining about media "putting in their own theories"? :lol

Is that supposed to be satire?

And they are pretending to be upset that the families of the fallen aren't the focus the conversation even though Trump has still not spoken of them or paid any tribute.


Huntsmen launched this bit of unintentional hilarity:

"I can’t tell you how many of my friends I talk to, it’s like,

they have no idea where to go to figure out what’s actually going on.

I hear that from my family, my friends, people I just talk to on the streets."

Let that sink in. Her own friends and family tell her that they don't know where to get reliable news. Which means they don't think they can get it from her or Fox News either.

Trump Signs New Travel Ban Preventing Republican Senators from Fleeing

WASHINGTON —Donald Trump on Wednesday signed an emergency travel ban preventing Republicans from fleeing the United States Senate.

In a sombre Oval Office ceremony, a grim-faced Trump signed the ban, which he said would remain

in effect “until we figure out what the hell is going on.”

The executive order calls for the

relocation of three hundred Border Patrol officers from the Mexican border to Washington, D.C., in order to form what Trump called “a human ring of steel” around the Capitol Building.

Under the travel ban, Republican senators will be permitted to leave their seats in the Senate chamber for meals and bathroom breaks but will be strictly forbidden from speaking to journalists in the building’s corridors.

Susan Collins, of Maine, one of the Republicans affected by the ban, called attention to the

growing humanitarian crisis inside the Capitol.

“If you have a shred of decency, Mr. President, let us leave the Senate,” Collins said.

“Let us follow our dream of a better life.”

In retaliation, Trump reportedly told Border Patrol agents that if Collins is caught trying to escape

she should be returned to the Senate and forced to sit next to Ted Cruz.

Trump Blames Generals for Deadly Niger Ambush

Did President Donald Trump, the commander-in-chief, just blame U.S. generals for the deadly October 4 ambush in Niger?

When asked by reporters on Wednesday if he authorized the mission in Niger that left four U.S. Army Special Forces soldiers dead, Trump said, “No, I didn’t, not specifically.” The generals have “decision-making ability,” he added.

“I have generals that are great generals,” he said during an impromptu press conference outside of the White House before heading off to Dallas. “These are great fighters; these are warriors. I gave them authority to do what’s right so that we win. That’s the authority they have. I want to win. And we’re going to win.”

Trump referred to the leaders as “my generals” and “my military.” He’s used such phrasing before, which has angered the military community.

“When it comes to the military, the military belongs to the country. Our defense system belongs to the country. And it’s not the president’s military, it’s the military of the United States of America,” Leon Panetta, a former defense secretary and director of the CIA, said in April.

This is also not the first time Trump has seemingly placed responsibility for a deadly military incident on the generals. After a botched raid in Yemen resulted in the death of U.S. Navy SEAL Chief Petty Officer William “Ryan” Owens in late January, Trump said, “My generals are the most respected that we’ve had in many decades I believe. And they lost Ryan.”

During his presidential campaign, Trump said, “I know more about ISIS than the generals do, believe me.” His actions since becoming president, however, suggest Trump doesn’t believe this at all.

I think we should have an immediate investigation into the Secretary of State's role in all of this.

This article goes to my point about the bigger picture in Niger and the rest of Africa. Behind these botched missions are failing policies that deserve a significant degree of scrutiny that both the mainstream media and congress will continue to avoid.

GWOT was started by Repugs for BigOil, it, like all wars, enriches the oligarchy, so it won't be stopped.

Endless war while 10Ms of Americans live in poverty, food insecurity, futures with no hope.

If we are going to have boots on the ground, you have to have support.

If you want security here, you have to make sure that you minimize the "Gap". (ref: P.M. Barnett's Pentagon's New Map )

If you want security here, you have to make sure that you minimize the "Gap". (ref: P.M. Barnett's Pentagon's New Map ) revitalized "red menace" theme in the form of the "terror threat" narrative supported by the neocons of both parties. reality is closer to the U.S. being more concerned about the chinese and russian influences in africa than they are with any legitimate ties to ISIS in the region. meanwhile, most countries in africa continue to sink further and further under the characteristics of colonialism. difference is that the insurgents no longer fight oppression; they are closer to being sadistic gangs more than anything else, and spreading terror among their own civilians more than anyone else. the only moral objection the U.S. has is with whomever of these sadists would interfere with our business interests.

hmmmmm........the residents of the village the american convoy rolled through, just before the attack, say they've never seen americans there before.

It's fake Christians like you who give the religion a bad name. Your behavior in this thread is not Christ like, at all. Mocking the death of a son of God and the lack of empathy for his family is disheartening coming from you brother. I pray that God softens your heart and frees you from the slavery of sin you're trapped in, amen.
