US creates new envoy position for Sahel, as militant groups expand
[Jpost] The United States has created a special envoy position to counter rising violence in Africa's Sahel region
... North Africa's answer to the Pak tribal areas...
, a State Department front man said on Friday.

Peter Pham, started his new role earlier this week as envoy to the Sahel, the front man said. Groups linked to al Qaeda and Islamic State
...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that they were al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're really very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more. They fling Allah around with every other sentence, but to hear western pols talk they're not really Moslems....
are expanding their foothold in the northern Africa region. # id) ?>
