United States Trains Leaders of African Coups who hold “Shared Values”

“African ingenuity and innovation, I am certain, will shape the future of the world.” ~ Kamala Harris

When asked by Gaetz if the US shares “core values” with Guinea coup leader Col. Mamady Doumbouy, Langley replied, “Absolutely … In our curriculum, we do.” Doumboy and his forces carried out a coup in 2021 while US Green Berets were in the country training them, and he still leads Guinea to this day.

Gaetz also referenced a January 2022 coup in Burkina Faso, which was led by Lt. Col. Paul-Henri Sandaogo Damib, who had a long history of participating in US training exercises. Later that year, in September 2022, Damib was ousted in another coup led by Capt. Ibrahim Traore. When asked by journalist Nick Turse if Traore also received US training, the Pentagon said it didn’t know.

Writing for Responsible Statecraft, Turse said since 2008, US-trained soldiers in Africa have “attempted at least nine coups (and succeeded in at least eight) across five West African countries, including Burkina Faso (three times), Guinea, Mali (three times), Mauritania, and the Gambia.”

In June 2022, African American General Michael Langley (Oh the irony!) was nominated for promotion to general and assignment as commander of United States Africa Command. The irony of all of this was starkly highlighted in a speech by American Vice President Kamala Harris who recently arrived in Ghana “In Africa, Kamala Harris Looks to Deepen Relations Amid China’s Influence” vowing friendship and a pledge to “deepen ties” depite the U.S. efforts to undermine and continue to deeply exploit the people and resources of the African continent. The United States has been clearly caught speaking out of both sides of its mouth… This has been its historic pattern for nearly four centuries now.
