The threat to the stability of the northern half of Africa posed by militant jihadi Islam is present and real. It has been exacerbated by the fall-out from our Libyan adventure, which has caused weapons in untold quantities to spew across one of the most fragile parts of the world. Not only do Al Qaeda’s predations endanger the development gains of the past half-century in the upper part of Africa, but chaos there will very directly impact Western Europe as human emergencies of immense proportion bloom, and illegal refugee flows multiply by orders of magnitude.

You may find this interesting, ping.
Whenever I see phrases like:
“Korean adventure”
“Vietnam adventure”
“Somalia adventure”
“Middle East adventure”
“Kuwaiti adventure”
“Iraq adventure”
“Afghanistan adventure”
“Libyan adventure”
Or similar phrasing, I dismiss anything issuing forth from that person’s mouth.
