also, their parliament building is on fire rn
Ya, just saw the headline about anti-tax protesters shot dead. Interesting context to say the least.
This or similar somehow keeps happening to US “allies”, usually shortly before or during the process of becoming one.
I think this has everything to do with the “Kenya-led intervention” US imperialists are trying to create in Hati
Please don’t need our help right now Kenya… Please don’t need our help right now Kenya… Please don’t need our help right now Kenya… Please don’t need our help right now Kenya… … …
Cool! Love it! Thanks for being a friend Kenya!
Kenya’s anti-tax protesters enter Parliament, several shot ‘dead’
Dozens of Kenyan lawyers protest what they say is judicial interference by President Ruto
I guess America’s friends are unified in their disregard for a fair judiciary and the right to protest.
Nothing new for the US empire

This is more like a quid pro quo of neo-imperialism.
Kenya’s government, not it’s population, are willing to act as the tip of the spear for operations that aren’t politically feasible for Washington e.g. troop deployments in Haiti.
In return they get the kind of benefits that come with doing favors for the American Security State.
This also should be viewed in the context of the Niger coup and their expulsion of Western antiterrorism troops from local bases, and the expansion of Russian interests and security partnerships in the region as well.
