[quote:ANNONYMOUS 8415236:MV8yMDI0NTkwXzM1Njk4NjMyX0ZDMjUzMUNC] :5a: An interesting point is that there have been rumblings on here from time to time about Africa which were for the most part ignored. Not only by myself but the other readers here. It wasn't until Erin Burnett a relatively obscure CNN newbie did a masterful piece on Mali and what was going on that it all came to the fore. While Erin's demeanor is somewhat snarkey her field work appears to be impeccable. Worth a watch on CNN from 7 - 8. This is in no way to demean either your reports Darby or In Funs which really fill in the blanks here. I often think that Erin lurks in the corners here. [/quote]
Original Message
Background - About a year ago, I stumbled on a website run by a group of students in France. They represented an organization called the National Movement for the Liberation of Azawad (MNLA is its initials in French).
I kept up with their movement to establish an independent Taureg state in Northern Mali. As I followed their statements and the occasional MSM article, it became apparent that something was not quite right. These kids were being set up. I came to believe that I was watching Western intelligence operation to create the pretext for Western intervention in Africa (in other words, I was watching a "false flag" war in the making)...
By early October, the yellow journalism building the case for war was undeniable...So, I decided to create this thread. Using MSM news sources (with occasional commentary posts) I tried to give the background on what is happening in Mali & why it might be happening....
Thanks for reading - Here is my original post...
Who do I root for?
Foreign jihadists from Sudan and Western Sahara pour into northern Mali
HUNDREDS of jihadist fighters, mainly from Sudan and Western Sahara, arrived in northern Mali over the weekend to support the Islamist groups ahead of a threatened regional intervention, witnesses and a security source say.
