New Contours of Sovereignty: Implications of Failed US Missiles in Nigeria
New Contours of Sovereignty: Implications of Failed US Missiles in Nigeria
“America is responsible, should be highly responsible, and should be made to pay for the damages and the consequences of its own foreign policy excesses and recklessness. The drum of war that America is beating, and has been beating for decades, should be called to order. And at least they should be made to pay damages not only in Nigeria, all over the world, in Venezuela, in Vietnam, in Cambodia, in Chile, in Afghanistan, in Iraq, in Libya, America should be made to pay. The entire world should come together as a family of humanity to make America pay for those particular consequences. Otherwise, it will keep on pursuing this particular recklessness unabated.”
