Pentagon headquarters for its African Command will - not be in Africa!
How could anyone question the motives of the
American government?
The US military has decided to keep the headquarters
of its new Africa Command in Germany, after only one
African nation, Liberia, offered to host
it.
The US plan had been misunderstood by some African countries, said General William Ward…
There has been concern that Africom is really an attempt to protect US oil and mineral interests in Africa, amid growing competition for resources from Asian economies.
Then there are fears about the continent being drawn into the US “war on terror”.
How could someone possibly draw any other conclusions?
