But it's really not-there are a lot of bad actors from outside Niger that are causing problems in Niger.
I don’t necessarily disagree, but geopolitics requires all forms of influence. Airbases and anti-terror activities in Niger help our goal in keeping the war on Islamoterrorists on another continent, keeps our influence in Africa, and keeps bad actors from receiving the raw materials to make a nuclear weapon, all while our service men and women have a low risk of casualties, while getting hands-on training fighting Islamoterrorists.
