The U.S. is keen to build a substantial military presence in
Africa, citing the need to combat the growth of Al-Qaeda in
Somalia, Algeria and other countries on the continent. This book
reveals the secret U.S. agenda behind the 'war on terror' in Africa
and the shocking methods used to perpetuate the myth that the
region is a hot-bed of Islamic terrorism. Africa expert Jeremy
Keenan points to overwhelming evidence suggesting that, from 2003,
the Bush administration and Algerian government were responsible
for hostage takings blamed on Islamic militants. This created a
permissive public attitude, allowing the U.S. to establish military
bases in the region and pursue multiple imperial objectives in the
name of security. The shocking revelations in this book, seriously
undermine the mainstream view of Africa as a legitimate 'second
front' in the 'war on terror.'
