Using and abusing Djibouti: How the US transformed a tiny African state into a hub of imperial aggression
From Djibouti, the US trains proxies and bombs strategically-important countries in the name of democracy and counterterrorism. To justify the country’s militarization, Washington hypes fears over China’s regional ambitions.

A World Health Crisis? – So Ramp Up Confrontation and Deploy Nuclear Bombers
The Pentagon is excelling itself in its enthusiastic march to war.
