With the invasion in Iraq there was some effort to portray it (for the rubes who did not believe it was about 9/11) as about some higher ideals, promoting democracy, empowering women. Here, there isn't even a coherent lie. Its all the personal pique of the mad King that no courtiers will question.

Do you follow @nlnathan.bsky.social? While checking out his feed, have a read of his October WP article. He backdates the construction of 1.5 million streets across a sample of #African countries to determine how #autocratic and #urban #politics shape the built environment. doi.org/10.1353/wp.2...
