There's a thread over in Politics/Government
that I thought really belongs here in World News,
so I'm posting this pointer to that thread.
The U.S. has an air base in Niger that we use to keep tabs on radical Muzzies in Africa.
The elected government of Niger has been overthrown by some of their military.
The new "government" wants the U.S. out, and has invited Russian forces in.
The Russians have set up camp at the same airfield where the U.S. forces are.
The situation is tense.

mankind would be no more justified in silencing that one person, than he, if he had the power, would be justified in silencing mankind.
