'Islamic State' poses growing threat across Africa
2021-07-25
[DW] After the so-called "Islamic State" saw its influence wane in the Middle East, the group and its affiliates targeted poorly governed areas in Africa. But just how big is the threat across the continent?

In 2018, the West Africa Center for Counter Extremism (WACCE) reported up to 6,000 West Africans who had fought with IS had returned home from Iraq and Syria after the group's self-proclaimed caliphate collapsed.
Last week, Niger's President Mohammed Bazoum said his country needed technological assistance from its European partners to fight jihadis. He complained of swaths of territory in Mali and Niger being taken over by the so-called "Islamic State
...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that they were al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're really very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more. They fling Allah around with every other sentence, but to hear western pols talk they're not really Moslems....

#7  Muzzizm is a form of Freudian Projection

Yes, very well maybe. Especially the modern muzzism. In medieval times they had some grit and integrity those bastards. Now it's just projecting their own hostility and baseness on others to guilt our courts and legislatures into accommodating them as 'minorities'.

Fun Fact: Projection itself is mis-associated with the Freud senior, as it was his daughter Anna who 'discovered' it. Wasn't much of a discovery, she just gave a name to a transparent trick delinquents and sociopaths had been pulling since ever.

#3  Shitholes seeking help from the abundance of confused European and American moralists, to preserve their own faulty kingdoms. Independent nations not willing to civilize, it's high time they took responsibility for their own failures. Or ask China their full time partner in raping their own countries.
