RSH 144 -- America’s War on Terror in the Sahel (7.23.2025) (UNLOCKED)
from Real Sankara Hours · host realsankarahours
In this bonus episode, Peter and Adam focus on Africa. Adam talks in-depth about a book recently read The Dying Sahara: U.S. Imperialism and Terror in Africa by Jeremy Keenan, which shows the roots of the U.S. War on Terror in Africa. The Algerian deep state, with the support of the U.S. and Europe, supported al-Qaeda in the Islamic Magreb (AQIM) (with training and many Algerian deep state operatives being al-Qaeda members), fabricated false flag terrorist attacks in the Sahel region, which Algeria blamed on the Tuareg and used as an excuse to expand the War on Terror. They also talk about the importance of African history, why African affairs are relevant to Black America, and Ibrahim Traore.
