IBhubesi lase-Afrika, okuyisivivinyo esikhulu samasosha ezwekazini lase-Afrika elihlelwe futhi eliholwa yi-US Army, seliqalile. Kubandakanya ukuhamba komhlaba, umoya, nemikhumbi yasolwandle eMorocco, eTunisia, eSenegal, nasolwandle oluseduze - kusuka eNyakatho Afrika kuye eNtshonalanga Afrika, kusuka eMedithera kuya e-Atlantic. Amasosha ayi-8,000 200 abamba iqhaza kuwo, ingxenye yawo eyaseMelika enamathangi angaba ngu-21, izibhamu ezizenzela, izindiza nemikhumbi yempi. I-African Lion 24 kulindeleke ukuthi ibize u- $ XNUMX million kanti inemithelela eyenza ibaluleke kakhulu.
Lesi sinyathelo sezepolitiki sanqunywa ngokuyisisekelo eWashington: ukuzivocavoca kwe-Afrika kwenzeka okokuqala eNtshonalanga Sahara okungukuthi kulo nyaka endaweni yaseSahrawi Republic, eyaziwa yizizwe ezingaphezu kwe-80 ze-UN, ubukhona bayo iMorocco obuphikisayo futhi bulwa nganoma iyiphi indlela . URabat umemezele ukuthi ngale ndlela “IWashington ibona ubukhosi baseMorocco phezu kweWestern Sahara”Futhi imema i-Algeria neSpain ukuthi bayekeinzondo yabo ebuhleni bendawo yaseMorocco“.

Kulesi simo, i-African Lion 21 yahlanganiswa ne-Defender-Europe 21, esebenzisa amasosha angama-28,000 nezimoto ezingaphezu kuka-2,000 XNUMX ezisindayo. Ngokuyisisekelo uchungechunge olulodwa lokuhamba kwamasosha okuhlelekile okwenzeka kusukela eNyakatho Yurophu kuye eNtshonalanga Afrika, kuhlelwe futhi kuyalwa yi-US Army Europe kanye ne-Afrika. Inhloso esemthethweni ukuphikisana nokungaqondakali “Umsebenzi omubi eNyakatho ne-Afrika naseNingizimu yeYurophu nokuvikela inkundla yeshashalazi ebudloveni bezitha“, Kukhulunywa ngokusobala ngeRussia neChina.
I-Italy ibamba iqhaza kwi-African Lion 21, kanye naku-Defender-Europe 21, hhayi ngamabutho ayo kuphela kepha njengesisekelo samasu. Ukuzivocavoca e-Afrika kuqondiswe eVicenza yi-US Army's Southern Europe Task Force futhi amabutho abambe iqhaza anikezwa ngetheku laseLivorno ngempahla yempi evela eCamp Darby, okuyisizinda esiseduzane se-US Army logistics. Ukubamba iqhaza kwe-African Lion 21 kuyingxenye yokuzibophezela kwamasosha ase-Italy okwandayo e-Afrika.
Imishini eNiger iyisifanekiselo, ngokusemthethweninjengengxenye yomzamo ohlangene waseYurophu nowaseMelika wokuzinzisa le ndawo kanye nokulwa nokushushumbiswa ngokungemthetho nokusongelwa kwezokuphepha", Empeleni ukuphatha enye yezindawo ezicebile kakhulu ezintweni ezibonakalayo (uwoyela, i-uranium, i-coltan, nezinye) ezixhashazwa amazwe aseMelika nawaseYurophu, oligopoly yawo esengozini yokuba khona komnotho waseChina nezinye izinto.
Kungaleso sizathu-ke lapho kusetshenzelwa khona isu lendabuko lamakoloniyali: ukuqinisekisa intshisekelo yomuntu ngezindlela zamasosha, kufaka phakathi ukwesekwa kwezikhulu zasendaweni ezisekela amandla azo emabuthweni azo ahlomile ngemuva kwesikrini sokubhema samabutho aphikisayo e-jihadist. Eqinisweni, ukungenelela kwezempi kwenza isimo sabantu sibe banzi, kuqinise izindlela zokuxhashazwa kwabantu nokuhlukunyezwa, okuholele ekutheni ukufuduka ngenkani kanye nezinhlekelele ezilandelanayo zabantu zande.
