Fighting In The Sahel Region Of Africa Is Displacing Tens Of Thousands



Eurasia Review: Violence, Displacement On Rise In Sahel Region Of Africa

Catholic Relief Services is warning of increasing violence and displacement in the Sahel— the vast area of western and north-central Africa stretching from Senegal to Sudan.

In 2018, more than 320,000 people in Burkina Faso, Mali and Niger were forced to leave their homes, CRS reports. Burkina Faso, in particular, saw a four-fold increase in displaced persons since the start of this year.

“The increase of violent attacks has been devastating to so many families,” Jennifer Overton, CRS’ regional director for West Africa, said Sept. 12.

“People are struggling not only to keep their families safe and together, but also to meet basic needs like food and shelter.”

The common libtard refrain is that these conflicts are really based on climate change due to the Sahel drying out due to AGW.


The Sahara & the Sahel of been drying out since the last ice age. It seems as though neanderthals were drying around their big, bad SUV's or so liberals will tell us.


However, for those of us that read something besides the NY Slime or Washington Compost, we know the truth.

"Large Wild Fauna Period (Bubalus Period) (12,000 BP - 6,000 BP)[8] This was a time when Saharan hunter-gatherer societies made rock art. These images included animals that were hunted or were in their surrounding area, including hippos, rhinos, elephants, giraffes, bubalus, aurochs, and large antelopes. Many of those animals no longer exist in the Sahara due to changes in climate that have caused the desiccation of the desert over the past several thousand years."

1. YOU TURN OFF DECENT READERS WITH YOUR "LIBERTARD? CHILDISH LABEL
2. CLIMATE CHANGE IS NOT THE ONLY THING REFERRED TO IN SUCH SITUATIONS THOUGH YOU LABEL IT AS THE ONLY CAUSE FOR THEM
3. YOU BADMOUTH TWO AMERICAN NEWS SOURCES AND USE AN ARAB ONE AS THE BIG TRUTH

1. YOU TURN OFF DECENT READERS WITH YOUR "LIBERTARD[sic]? CHILDISH LABEL

I don't care, if I turn you off. You're an idiot.

2. CLIMATE CHANGE IS NOT THE ONLY THING REFERRED TO IN SUCH SITUATIONS THOUGH YOU LABEL IT AS THE ONLY CAUSE FOR THEM

That is the main one libtards keep pushing. They always downplay Islam in the killings and aware in the Sahel

3. YOU BADMOUTH TWO AMERICAN NEWS SOURCES AND USE AN ARAB ONE AS THE BIG TRUTH

Not everything that an America media out let publishes is gold and not everything an Arab media source is shit.

BTW I only made reference to Wikipedia. Is that an Arab source?
