The truth about what is really going on in Mali and with AFRICOM and NATO countries, especially France is a little bit like a geopolitical “Victoria’s Secret”—what you think you see is definitely not what you will get.

We are being told repeatedly in recent months that something supposedly calling itself Al Qaeda—the organization officially charged by the US Government as responsible for pulverizing three towers of the World Trade Center and blowing a gaping hole in the side of the Pentagon on September 11, 2001—has regrouped.

According to the popular media account and statements of various NATO member country government officials, the original group of the late Osama bin Laden, holed up we are supposed to believe somewhere in the caves of Tora Bora in Afghanistan, has apparently adopted a modern business model and is handing out Al Qaeda official franchises in a style something like a ‘McDonalds of Terrorism,’ from Al Qaeda in Iraq to Libyan Islamic Fighting Group in Libya and now Al-Qaeda-in-the Islamic-Maghreb.

I’ve even heard reports that a new Al Qaeda “official” franchise has just been given, bizarre as it sounds, to something called DRCCAQ or Democratic Republic of Congo Christian (sic) Al Qaeda. [7] Now that’s a stretch which reminds one of an equally bizarre sect called Jews for Jesus created back in the hippie days of the Vietnam War era. Can it be that the architects of all these murky groups have so little imagination?

If we are to believe the official story, the group being blamed in Mali for most all the trouble is Al Qaeda in the Islamic Maghreb (AQIM for short). The murky AQIM itself is actually a product of several behind-the-scenes workings. Originally it was based in Algeria across the border from Mali and called itself the Salafist Group for Preaching and Combat (GSPC according to its French name).

In 2006 Al Qaeda’s head guru in absence of Osama bin Laden, Egyptian jihadist Ayman al-Zawahiri, publicly announced the granting to the Algerian GSPC the Al Qaeda franchise. The name was changed to Al-Qaeda-in-the Islamic-Mahgreb and Algerian counter-terror operations pushed them in the past two years over the desert border into northern Mali. AQIM reportedly is little more than a well-armed criminal band that gets its money from running South American cocaine from Africa into Europe, or from arms dealing and human trafficking. [8]

A year later, in 2007, the enterprising al-Zawahiri added another building block to his Al Qaeda chain of thugs when he officially announced the merger between the Libyan LIFG and al-Qaeda in the Islamic Mahgreb (AQIM).

The LIFG or Libyan Islamic Fighting Group, was formed by a Libyan-born jihadist named Abdelhakim Belhaj. Belhaj was trained by the CIA as part of the US-financed Mujahideen in Afghanistan during the 1980s alongside another CIA trainee then named Osama bin Laden. In essence, as the journalist Pepe Escobar notes, “for all practical purposes, since then, LIFG/AQIM have been one and the same – and Belhaj was/is its emir.” [9]

That becomes even more interesting when we find that Belhaj’s men – who, as Escobar writes, were at the forefront of a militia of Berbers from the mountains southwest of Tripoli, the so-called Tripoli Brigade—were trained in secret for two months by US Special Forces. [10]

LIFG played a key role in the US and French-backed toppling of Libya’s Qaddafi, turning Libya today into what one observer describes as the “world’s largest open air arms bazaar.” Those arms are reportedly flooding from Benghazi to Mali and other various hotspot targets of destabilization, including, according to what was suggested at the recent US Senate Foreign Relations testimony of outgoing Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, by the boatload from Libya to Turkey where they were being channeled into the various foreign terrorist insurgents sent into Syria to fuel the destruction of Syria. [11]

Now what does this unusual conglomerate globalized terror organization, LIFG-GPSC-AQIM intend in Mali and beyond, and how does that suit AFRICOM and French aims?

My brother Naked, i read your post the other time and you see, that is what happened to Nkrumah and we are now 60 years behind India, China, Brazil, Malaysia and others. What I don,t understand is, why they do that and our leaders will agree to such tokens as happened in Ghana? Ouattara was brought in by the help of UN now they are ratting him out. They do it for posterity, we do it for a few cents for our stomachs. Why

Ghanaians have short memories.If we are to recount various offences, humiliations aggravated by French speaking Ivorians against Ghanaians living in Ivory Coast in the days of late Houphoet Boigny ...there will be reprisal slaughter to Ivorian seeking refuge and economic survivor in Ghana today . In 1992 Ivorian soccer fans killed 192 Ghanaian immigrants living across cities in Ivory Coast. The cause ? Because Ghana Black Stars almost denied Ivorians the ryt to win Africa Cup of Nations hosted in Dakar/ Senegal. Ivorians won on 6-5 penalty kicks. Over 1000 innocent Ghanaians living in Ivory Coast were downed with injuries. Ivorians slaughtered innocent Ghanaians with whatever weapon they got be it , matchets,clubs,metal bars,knives,home made guns,home made cutlasses ,firewood ,steel. Fellow Ghanaians why did Ivorians attack Ghanaians even after claiming the Africa Cup and crowned Africa Champions for the first time ?SADISTS.
IVORIANS DELIGHTS IN KILLING GHANAIANS FROM TIME IMMOMMERIAL AND HATE TO SEE GHANAIANS PROSPER .
Ivorians enjoys cruelty therefore the war and devastations in Ivory Coast came about becos they sow cruelty and must reap devastation. This is generational curse .. Fellow Ghanaians why is the present Ivorian Ouattara government Ivory Coast ROARING LIKE WOUNDED LION AGAINST GHANA WITH DISPUTE OVER OIL DEMARCATION IN WESTERN REGION ? ENVY ENVY ENVY

SADISM LINKS IVORIANS
French politics across Africa is associated with divisions, and greed .The French have no regard for human rights and individual rights is.French leaders across West Africa rule by iron fists... and a tyrants.So the French speaking West Africans are blood suckers.Sometimes I marvel why Ghanaians continue to play host to Ivorian nationals.

Mr TEE I am sure you did not take tea that is why you are in this mood. You you dont know what you are talking about for when leaders are struggling for African unity, you are still think of sacking your own brothers. I doubt your being Akan. Don't you know that the southern region of Cote d Ivoire is occupied and owned by Akans, that the market of Cote d ivoire is full of Ghanaians sellers, tailors, shoes makers and traders? THINK AGAIN?

NO AKAN CREATED THE STATE CALLED GHANA. IT WAS CREATED BY THE BRITISH U IGNORANT BABBOON. IN 1874 WHEN THE GOLD COAST WAS CREATED ASHANTI,BRONG AHAFO, NORTHERN PART OF THE VOLTA REGION AND NORTHERN GHANA WERE NOT PART. IT STRECTHED FROM KETA TO CAPE 3 POINTS IN THE WESTERN REGION AND UP NORTH TO AKYEM. GHANA DOES NOT BELONG TO ONLY AKANS AND NO TRIBE IS A FOREIGNER. GO BACK, LEARN YOUR GHANA HISTORY, U FILTHY IGNORAMUS AND COME AGAIN.

As far as I am concerned war has never solved any problem. It always ends on the negotiation table.All countries once colonized by France are always in state of anarchy. Some may disagree with me, but the fact is it will be very difficult for a United Africa to be realised. Until such stooges like the leaders in French colonies become independent- forget it. All former French colonies are still under colonialism. Neocolonialism in the other countries in Africa. Africa would have been the ''power-house'' of the world if we are not black-minded-and-heart people. Quatara and Gbagbo should sit aside. Shame!

Xenophobic Ivorians are now refugees in other west African countries!!! Unbelievable!

Ouattara is a war criminal who along with his vicious thugs waged war of attrition on his own people with the help of France.They have placed Gbagbo in a cell but Ouattara did more than ten times what he did.The only reason why he is walking around is because he is France's puppet.I believe the Ghanaian government should give a free hand to the Ivorians in Ghana who want to go back and fight for their country.If any I vorian operative is caught in Ghana we should put them on trail and peruse an international criminal case against Ouattara.
