I hang in with my #NewLeftReview subscription though tbh I'm often disappointed.
Not with the current edition!

"Under Issoufou, #Niger opposed the 2011 NATO intervention to dislodge Khadafi, predicting it would destroy Libya and set off a security and migration crisis in the region. But when the prophesy came true, Issoufou decided to seek the help of the West to contain the fallout."
