America and other nations helped Libyans clean Sirte of ISIS mercenaries in 2016. Russian mercenaries are next but America is MIA. dailysabah.com/politics/libya…
Russian mercenaries have also recently taken over Libya's largest oil field in the southwest. energyvoice.com/oilandgas/afri…
Its too simplistic to assume that Russian mercenaries work for Putin. When Erik Prince's "Opus" mercenary plan failed in early July 2019, Haftar replaced them with Wagner. Despite Christiaan Durrant running to the CIA, Trump didn't care. saudileaks.org/en/saudis-plot…
Erik Prince sued the Intercept in Wyoming (?) for revealing that he traveled to the UAE to pitch Israeli drones and front companies to help them out of jams in Libya and Mozambique. It's all about parsing.
But Prince has admitted he secretly met with Russians: ‘I remember telling him that if Franklin Roosevelt could work with Joseph Stalin to defeat Nazi fascism, then certainly Donald Trump could work with Vladimir Putin to defeat Islamic fascism’ scmp.com/news/world/uni…
Same game, different country: "Prigozhin has routinely denied any connection to Wagner." Mercenary companies are illegal in Russia. ITAR and other laws prevents Americans from providing military/intel services to foreigners. So deny. cnn.com/2019/11/29/afr…
It is now clear that despite's Trump's love of Russian gangsters, Ukrainian corruption and eastern European women.... Russia is not our friend. This story resonates mostly because Don put a chucklehead in charge of intel and Trump has his own sources. nytimes.com/2020/06/26/us/…
It appears that Trump is so busy spying on America that he forgot to spy on the Russians. nytimes.com/2020/03/07/us/…
So it turns out that Prince's boy Haftar is a terrorist who hired Russian terrorists and now AFRICOM has to clean up the mess. Again. aljazeera.com/news/2020/06/l…
