    Why is this the case?

    As Lenin wrote in Imperialism: the Highest Stage of Capitalism, imperialist wars marked a departure from wars conducted in the prior eras in that they are fundamentally rooted in the expansion of finance capital.

    The Sahel kicking out imperialists, establishing their own protectionist bloc, nationalizing resources and their economies, all of which threaten and disrupt the free flowing of trillions of dollars of American capital while shutting them out of the region.

    These acts that violate the sanctity of the Free Market must be punished, by any means necessary.

      This is the obvious part. Resisting Imperialism is always the 3rd rail.

      The part I’m unsure of is why al-Qaeda doing the dirty work of these Imperialists. How does the state dept convince them to expand into the sahel? Or are they under the direct command/funding of the state dept?
