[I have been warning of this for some time. In fact, about 2 years ago, the US Army engaged in a program of “co-operation” with African Governments so that they would co-operate with the USA to prevent Al Qaeda getting a foothold in Africa.

I mentioned at the time, that I doubted this would work and that African Governments would “accidentally on purpose” (to quote a saying from when I was a kid), let Al Qaeda into Africa.

That has now already happened. The CIA is currently funding an anti-Muslim army in Somalia and war is already raging there. So a whole new war front has opened up… without any fan fare…

And in Nigeria… there is also some instability…

The CIA has been in S.Africa, twisted the Govt here to get rid of Muslim terrorists from Pakistan.

The other day, an American terrorist specialist had a conference here in Johannesburg warning about Al Qaeda in Africa. I have my doubts about how sincere the S.African and other black African Govts are in actually standing up to the Muslim terrorists. After all, S.Africa is GREAT BUDDIES with *EVERY* rabid, Muslim terrorist organisation out there. We’re also on the side of Iran who are becoming a very serious problem.

Al Qaeda could easily pop up in many places in Africa, and I think it will be hard to root them out. I have no faith that the African Governments will contain Al Qaeda. I believe many will SECRETLY be on Al Qaeda’s side.

I’m looking forward to seeing more of Al Qaeda in Africa. It will give Africa added importance, and perhaps, as Al Qaeda continues with its terrorist nonsense here, Americans will start realising the value of white people in Africa who could be recruited to work for the CIA and the US Govt to help fight the spread of Muslim terrorism. We have plenty of trained soldiers here who could come in extremely handy all across Africa. We know the terrain, the people, etc… we could be INVALUABLE … INVALUABLE… in helping to find the rubbish terrorist scum and sending them off to meet their 72 virgins in heaven…

The terrorists are probably coming to Africa because this will be an easier “breeding ground” for them. Now you’ll see the BAD side of post-colonial rule. Under Colonial rule, we’d have been actively hunting them down and blowing their brains out without further ado… but the African Leaders will “accidentally on purpose”… kinda let Al Qaeda slip through the cracks and pretend to know nothing… the bribery… the minerals… it will all make it easier going.

Many of us would happily assist the US Govt in fighting terrorism. As America’s global terrorist war gets further and further out of hand, I’d also like to “do my bit” as I am many other whites would. I’m all game for shafting these Muslim terrorist scumbags, and where possible blowing their brains out. Jan]

Experts Fear Africa Next Big Stage for Al Qaeda

JOHANNESBURG (Reuters) – There is mounting evidence that the African continent will become the next Al Qaeda hotbed as the militant group seeks to expand its global operations, a senior expert on terrorism said.

(96)`Al Qaeda would logically look for Africa,’ Peter Pham, director of the Virginia-based think-tank Nelson Institute for International and Public Affairs, told Reuters.

Speaking on Wednesday night at a security conference in Johannesburg, Pham cited Africa’s weak governments, large Muslim communities, rampant poverty and its proximity to the Middle East as factors that could make the continent a target. (96)`(96)`It’s a natural base of (Al Qaeda) operation,’ Pham said. (96)`(96)`There is evidence that Africa will be the next front for Al Qaeda,’ he added.

The two-day conference on (96)`Combating and Preventing Terrorism in Africa’ was held as senior defense officials in Washington said the Pentagon was considering the creation of a new military command responsible for Africa.

They said the idea was being considered by Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld but no decision had been made.

Responsibility for Africa is divided among three U.S. military regions: European Command, Central Command and Pacific Command.

A Pentagon official said a separate Africa command would not mean putting U.S. troops in Africa but would (96)`streamline the focus and give appropriate undivided attention to the continent.’

BLOODY ATTACKS

Africa has witnessed a number of bloody attacks, notably the 1998 bombings of U.S. embassies in Kenya and Tanzania, which killed 224 people, and the 2002 suicide attack on a tourist hotel in the Kenyan resort of Mombasa that killed 16. Al Qaeda was suspected in both cases.

The African Union set up the African Center for the Study and Research on Terrorism in Algeria last year, acknowledging that international terrorism had come to constitute a serious threat to peace in Africa.

Beyond the immediate goals of dealing with active terror groups there were calls at the conference for more aid for economic growth and democracy.

The meeting is the first of its kind to be held in Africa, indicative of its growing strategic importance, particularly as a growing energy supplier to the United States.

(96)`West Africa now supplies 16 percent of U.S. hydrocarbons – liquid natural gas and petroleum – and by 2015 it will supply more than 25 percent,’ Pham said. (96)`As it becomes more strategically important there’s greater interest.’

The Horn of Africa has become an area of particular concern to western policymakers, given the ongoing battle for state control in Somalia between Islamists – suspected by the U.S. of links to Al Qaeda – and the country’s transitional government.

The United States already has a strong presence in the Sahel under the $500 million Trans-Sahara Counter-Terrorism Initiative. It provides military expertise to nine Saharan states where swathes of desert are believed to harbour militant Islamist groups involved in smuggling and combat training.

But Pham also pointed to West Africa where he said Lebanese militant group Hezbollah has tried to raise funds among the large Lebanese community.

(96)`There is a large Hezbollah fundraising presence in Africa on the west coast – in Guinea, Sierra Leone and Liberia.’

Counter-terrorism efforts in Africa have been criticized in the past by domestic opponents who say repressive governments have taken advantage of U.S. President George Bush’s (96)`War on Terror’ to solicit western aid and clamp down on freedoms.
