Germany: In the U.S. occupied NATO country the U.S. Department of Justice and U.S. AfriCom (Arfrica Command) held their first ever Africa Symposium. The goal was to figure out why the people of the African continent refuse to accept the U.S. taxpayer funded imposition of U.S. style ‘Rule of Law’ (since 2000, when AfriCom was created): “Do civilians in danger run away from the military or do they run towards the military, and do the security services behave and are they subject to the restraints of the rule of law? If not, I don’t care if they are an African, European, or an Asian army, civilians are going to run away. Our key strategic goal here, is to help build African armies to which civilians in distress run towards, not away from.”-Alexander Laskaris, Deputy to the Commander for Civil-Military Engagement on the U.S. Africa Command (former U.S. ambassador to Guinea under the Obama regime)
