CENTCOM + EUCOM + USPACOM = USAFRICOM
A new military command for Africa. About damn time, too. Just as the article says, it’s becoming a more and more important region. They’re keeping Egypt as part of CENTCOM as part of the Middle East, but frankly… Though I think the rest of Africa should be unified into one command, instead of split between USPACOM, CENTCOM, and EUCOM, I still believe that other nations considered part of the Middle East, such as Morrocco and Tunisia, should remain a part of CENTCOM as well as Egypt.
Ryan Henry said that the Bush administration believed Africa needed more attention. Understatement of the year, perhaps, but I guess forming a seperate command for Africa is a start.
Hopefully this will lead to good things for Darfur?
