    Not a news piece but whatever goes to fight Western imperialism, am I right?

      It’s good that Niger is trying to unshackle themselves from French influence. But it did not need to be in exchange for another imperialist that is just as bad if not worse.

        As I said in another thread, Niger is replacing the somewat flawed influence of a Western democracy with the fatal influence of a full out dictatorship. But in the end, it’s their choice, or that of their military rulers at least.

      Reads news about Nigeria’s senate refusing to support military intervention in Niger, claims it’s not news and goes on to whinge that his empire is being portrayed in a negative light. Western propagandists aren’t what they used to be.

          It does, I post factual information about world news mostly sourced from western media. The fact that this upsets you is entirely a you problem.
