good. dudes been leasing oil for pennies to france these last 40 years. fuck'm. cant remember where i readit but they argue that chad have been the pitch perfect archetype of neocolonialism; a discontinuous tribal society with a shambolic state that survives and perpetuates on leasing resources for gutter price.
Don't worry, his son took over after his death, so the selling-oil-for-pennies will probably continue for another 40 years :agony:
I think in Chad's case, the most powerful man in the country would be the French Ambassador heh.
One of France's favorite puppets. And guess what lawless failed state the rebels took refuge in when they were pushed back some years ago? Good ol' Libya. America stabilized Libya so hard, it's spreading to other countries!
wtf are we living in Ancient Greece? What kind of leader fights on a battlefield?
They do this in like. Every country in the world. Idk why you're so surprised
At first I thought the title was calling him a chad for dying on the front lines
I mean puppet leader or not, gotta admire a leader who fights.
this sounds like Valhalla ,lol
(I have now Idea whats going on in Chad btw...)
think it's possible he could have been fragged by his own dudes maybe?
Yeah things have been escalating for some time now. I didn't think they'd actually get Deby though.
key western ally
Takes power in a rebellion, rules for thirty years, grooms his son to take over
article never once uses the words "Authoritarian" or "human rights" or "democracy" to discuss him
:chomsky-yes-honey:
Chad President Idriss Deby killed on frontline, son to take over
of course hereditary presidency if biden died hunter would take over so this makes sense
