BREAKING NEWS: Russian troops enter US base in Niger, order Americans out

Guest post by Leo Hohmann

This is unprecedented; we are entering a hot war with Russia, just a matter of time

Breaking news from ReutersFriday, May 3, 2024. A $100 million air base in Niger, which reportedly is a key player in drone warfare, has been taken over by the Russians without firing a shot. See story below from Reuters, and video providing further analysis breaking down this humiliating development for the U.S. military. This all went down on the invitation of the military government in Niger, which kicked the French out of their country last year. The US took over the base and now they’ve thrown them out. When can you ever remember Russian troops taking over a U.S. air base anywhere in the world? And where is the mainstream media other than a few small articles on the back page? They don’t want us to know about this, not the full implications. The U.S. is getting its clock cleaned right now by Russia, both economically and militarily. Expect the U.S. to lash out soon with another attack inside Russia. We are witnessing the actions of a collapsing empire and no empire goes down without a fight. I expect full on World War III by late 2024 or early 2025.

REUTERS — Russian military personnel have entered an air base in Niger that is hosting U.S. troops, a senior U.S. defense official told Reuters, a move that follows a decision by Niger’s junta to expel U.S. forces.

The military officers ruling the West African nation have told the U.S. to withdraw its nearly 1,000 military personnel from the country, which until a coup last year had been a key partner for Washington’s fight against insurgents who have killed thousands of people and displaced millions more.

A senior U.S. defense official, speaking on condition of anonymity, said Russian forces were not mingling with U.S. troops but were using a separate hangar at Airbase 101, which is next to Diori Hamani International Airport in Niamey, Niger’s capital.

The move by Russia’s military, which Reuters was the first to report, puts U.S. and Russian troops in close proximity at a time when the nations’ military and diplomatic rivalry is increasingly acrimonious over the conflict in Ukraine.

It also raises questions about the fate of U.S. installations in the country following a withdrawal.

This, for me presents a sickening and agonizing situation: Can I ever cheer an opposing force against the U S military? Obviously our military is a gang of sorry losers. That admiral spokesman (not the one in a dress) was boasting the Afghan withdrawal was a smashing success which was obviously the most embarrassing skadaddle since First Manassas. Men training in high heels or wearing a dress, sexual perverts entertaining in base events. Finally all white people are at the bottom of the pile. Is this what they expect us to support?

We should have left the base after a “scorched earth” treatment to the facilities we paid to install. Sounds like Kabal lite. Then round up all illegal aliens purporting to be refugees from Niger an nearby African countries squatting in USSA for return to sender.

I don’t even refer to them as “US military”. They are NWO mercenaries. They don’t defend the USA from invasion, but they do carry out offensive operations on behalf of their NWO masters. They are just ‘yes-sir’ men who will do what they’re told for a paycheck. They would surely violate our constitutional rights and murder USA citizens at home, if ordered to do so. FUQ these NWO mercenaries!

Oh, oh, oh and oohhh how I wish we didn’t have this communistic piece of DEI/tranny shit 0bama third term government going on. I give a FUCK what happens to them, the shit sack losers they are. I love my country I loathe and revile the government imposed by obvious fraud on the people by the lickspittle pishers, trannies, queers and satanists in the deep state and communist (democrat) cadre.

When the Russians kick our people off the base I feel terrible for our men and women in uniform (the trannies can all drop dead on the spot) but I can’t bring myself to oppose the Russians doing it because it’s a poke in the chops to the piece of ragged digested string tying the dog’s turds together government of the faggot 0bama and his pervert crew, not the idea of the United States, nor the people of the United States.

It’s a poke in the chops to the cadre of shrivel dick revolutionists and deep state communists that stole the 2020 election and produced what we are witnessing today. And they deserve every bit of that poke in the chops. May each and every one of those people catch fire spontaneously and burn into white ash.

Now bring all our men and women in uniform home safely until we obtain a legitimate government once again.

Exactly. This is not a “US base” but a Nigerien one we have been invited to as a tenant. The only leased military base the US has in Africa is in Djibouti. Sovereign countries have the right to invite multiple international military tenants to their domestic bases simultaneously. That’s all that happened here.

The US never had a legal counterterrorism mission in the Sahel and was only ever there because of “foreign aid” grift. This is why you get revolutions and juntas…hopeless corruption and widespread dissatisfaction with postmodern colonial whores.

This is a great example of both Leo and AP sensationalizing the mundane in opposing directions. However, I do believe this is yet another example of extra-angloshere rejection of the GAE’s legitimacy.

Like I really give a rat’s ass that we leave a base and someone else takes over. What the hell are we doing in all these countries anyways? Let Russia be the world’s policeman if they want the job. We’ve managed to totally piss off the entire world by interfering with foreign elections, staging coups, performing regime changes, outright overthrowing democratically elected governments, etc. Years ago Dr. Ron Paul wanted to shut down all these bases and bring American Service People home. What’s wrong with that?

It seems like we abandon (either willingly or at the insistence of the host country) bases quite a bit. We’ve left the bases in the Philippines, Iraq, Afghanistan, and others over the years. We always seem to be embarrassed when it happens. Don’t worry, we seem to be able to open two new bases somewhere else for every one we’re forced to leave. The Empire always needs to be empiring.

Hot war is the buzz word for the week? For a hot war to exist two sides must have the will and or means to fight. When there is only one side capable of fighting you have what is more commonly known as a route.
A nuclear war serves none of the elite in any way so there will be none. At present, even a small conflict would not be seen as profitable for the globalists as war tool production is already at maximum.
Save the sky-is-falling for later when it really will be; on our heads.
