#3  Hold on .... Say it true and not a Russian political ploy.

Article: The Russian Foreign Intelligence Service (SVR) has said that the United States government is considering whether to assassinate the leaders of the new military administration in Niger Republic, who seized power in late July.

More than likely it is the Russians telegraphing their intentions if the coup leaders don't do what the Russians want.
