Will there be a war in Africa?

2023-09-08 14:40:01

Yes, the United States said that it did not intend to put up with the current state of affairs in Africa and would send troops. In addition, the African Union, the United States and France supported a military invasion of Niger. The war will be postponed until the U.S. deals with the war in Israel.

There were coups in Mali, Niger, Burkina Faso, and Gabon. African countries are simply tired of colonial Europe, which for centuries has used it only as cheap raw materials. The situation in Gabon will be of a special nature, there will be a great struggle for it, because it is a rich and oily country. And because of the coup in Niger, which now does not supply uranium for pennies, the entire nuclear industry in Europe is in danger of disappearing, and these are 56 nuclear power plants in France, 11 in Britain, 7 in Spain, 3 in Germany, 6 in the Czech Republic and about 40 more scattered elsewhere in Europe, according to Politico. So far, the matter is limited only to sanctions. France must withdraw troops by the end of the year.

If ECOWAS does start a war in Africa, then 218,000 bayonets will stand on the side of the West in the countries where it still has influence – the Gambia, Ghana, Guinea-Bissau, Cape Verde, Liberia, Nigeria, Senegal and Sierra Leone. They will be able to resist the armies of Niger, Mali, Burkina Faso and Guinea - a total of about 30 thousand troops. ECOWAS will make this mistake by carrying out a military intervention in Niger, because if they intervene militarily, it means that the whole of Africa will be at war and the problem is that 80% of the inhabitants in the countries where military coups have taken place support the current military government.

Did the British change India's caste system?

2023-10-10 11:57:38

Yes, the social categories of religion and caste, as they are perceived in modern India, developed during the British colonial rule, at a time when information was scarce and the colonizer's power over information was absolute.

This was originally done in the early 19th century by elevating selected and convenient Brahmin-Sanskrit texts such as Manusmriti to canonical status; the alleged caste origin in the Rig Veda (the oldest religious text) was most likely added retroactively after it was translated into English decades later. These categories were institutionalized in the mid- to late 19th century through the census. These were acts of convenience and simplification. The colonialists established an acceptable list of local religions in India - Hinduism, Sikhism, Jainism - and their boundaries and laws by reading what they claimed were the definitive texts of India.

Officially, castes are prohibited by law in India, but changing the caste division of Indian society, which has been cultivated in the minds of Indians for centuries, is not so easy.
