Hi Abby, To talk about terrorism means having a discussion on Neo-Colonialism. The U.S. uses this loaded term as an excuse or right to enter African countries and dominate them politically, militarily, and economically. Unfortunately, terrorism is often a misunderstood term where a fine line exists between legitimate revolution and regime change, and criminal violence. The lines have been blurred between police and military operations under U.S. imperialism.

[@DevonahBlackwellT.I.]

Another thing that is not discussed is how US citizens are being placed on virtual Gitmo lists like TIDE/TSDB lists who are not Muslim and have never been approached, questioned by any law enforcement agencies and certainly never convicted in any court of any terror related activity yet they are being constantly monitored, survelled, having employment blocked & subjected to enhanced airport security as if they had been convicted of secret crimes that the accused isnt even able to get confirmation of bc of the US government claims bogus national security cover but have never charged the person with any crimes. If this is not fascism i do not know what is. And the cowardly lawyers in the US are too afraid to help people who are basically illegally and without just cause being consigned to Virtual Gitmos across the globe, with no official charges nor convictions but still being covertly treated as if we have been found guilty of these secret phantom charges. And all of this with govt knowledge and funding. No due process whatsoever. None. America is fascist to its core.

[@dr.earnest.ujaama]

@@DevonahBlackwellT.I. Agreed. Just remember that in the United States being convicted of a crime does not necessarily make you a criminal. Martin Luther King, Jr. was convicted of a crime. Today, there is a national holiday in his name. Fascism thrives best when people have little understanding of what constitutes bad behavior versus just opposition or non-compliance. Anytime a group of people are convicted for raising money for charity, and slick prosecutors can convince a jury it is linked to violence, fascism is either developing or already present.

I work for an American diesel engine manufacturing company that is about to produce an engine to be exported to South Africa. Such engines, build in the UK with great quality and CO2 efficiency, still are considered highly pollutant in the EU, hence why this manufacturer is shrinking their production volumes in the UK from three shift a day production volumes to a one shift and a mini shift a day. Environmental issues in Africa may ‘improve’ with the availability of better quality and efficiency engines but in my opinion, that’s all down to the expansion of territory for market purpose only.

[@kenschaefer7625]

Some years ago I confronted Sen Russ Feingold D-WI who is a huge AFRICOM supporter. I told him that diplomacy work by civilians from the State Department was being taken over by the military as in AFRICOM. It appears that talks between African countries and the United States would be held by military personnel instead of diplomats. Diplomats are being replaced with military leaders whose business is war not diplomacy. So many of our politicians have not been in the military and do not really know first hand what is really taught to military members. Military leaders do not like diplomacy as if diplomats succeed it can put the military out of a job or at least on the back burner. Admirals and Generals don't like that. Yes, resources are the reason. In the 1980s I was a senior NCO in the Air Force. We were taught in our leadership courses then that the next wars would be in Africa and the Middle East to secure resources. Bingo! Just like it was planned. Doesn't make any difference who is elected as the Democrats and republican agree on this one thing.
