BAMAKO, Mali France's foreign minister said Sunday that the United States is providing communications and transport help for an international military intervention aimed at wresting Mali's north out of the hands of Islamist extremists.

Laurent Fabius said the three-day-old, French-led military operation has succeeded in halting the extremists' advance, which had prompted the intervention. He sought to stress that the operation is gaining international backing, despite concern about the risks of the mission in a stretch of lawless desert in weakly governed country.

"We have the support of the Americans for communications and transport," Fabius said on RTL radio Sunday. Britain, Denmark, and other European countries also are helping, Fabius said. He gave no details about the backup.
CBS News correspondent David Martin confirmed Fabius' statement, adding that officials said the U.S. began providing aerial refueling and intel support as of Sunday morning. None of this involves U.S. boots on the ground. Refueling will be for flights coming down from France. Intel will consist of long range reconnaissance, although it is still unclear whether that will be provided by drones or not.
U.S. officials on Saturday said they had offered to send drones to Mali. British Prime Minister David Cameron agreed to send aircraft to help transport troops.
Some 400 French troops have been deployed to Mali in the all-out effort to win back the territory from the well-armed rebels, who seized control of an area larger than France itself following a coup in Mali in March and made new advances last week.

"The Islamist offensive has been stopped," Fabius said. "Blocking the terrorists ... we've done it."

Residents of the city of Gao confirmed that the targets included the city's airport, as well as the building that served as the base for the town's feared Islamist police, who have carried out numerous punishments including the public amputations of accused thieves. The insurgents adhere to a harsh interpretation of Islamic law.
But the intervention has come with a human cost in the city of Konna, the first to be bombed Friday and Saturday. Mali presidential spokesman Ousmane Sy said 11 Malians were killed. The town's mayor, Sory Diakite, said the dead included three children who threw themselves into a river and drowned trying to avoid the falling bombs.
French President Francois Hollande authorized the military operation, code-named "Serval" for a sub-Saharan wildcat, after it became clear that the advancing rebels could push past defenses in the town of Mopti, the first town on the government-controlled side, which has the largest concentration of Malian soldiers.
The decision catapulted the world and Mali's neighbors into a military operation that diplomats had earlier said would not take place until at least September.
On Saturday, the body representing nations in West Africa announced that they would send hundreds of troops of their own, including at least 500 each from Niger, Burkina Faso and Senegal, as well as from Nigeria.

It's not enough, though. There have to be mass deportations of known Islamists from France, the U.K., the U.S., Canada, Germany, and every country that has admitted them through the immigration pipeline. There's no point in attacking Islamists in the Middle East and Africa and then allowing them to infiltrate the West through idiotic "open door" immigration policies. E-mail your representatives in Congress today! Or maybe you prefer to let the Islamists deport you, your children and your grandchildren in the not too distant future?

Who are the Illuminati you so fear and resist. Name them, Dipsh.it.
They, like your Invisible-Daddy-In-The-Sky, DO NOT EXIST.
Religion poisons everything, especially governments.
Don't be ignorant of basic facts.
The first stage of classic neo-colonialism
The concept of Neo-colonialism was first created after 1960 to describe using puppets to control former colonies that became formally "independent" countries.
These new countries of course kept the colonial borders, to keep the ethnic and religious divides. Borders drawn by the illuminati using the principle of divide an conquer.
The main role of the traitors during this neo-colonial stage was to continue to transfer the wealth of these "independent" countries to their masters.
During the first decades of neo-colonialism the illuminati successfully crushed the armed revolts and killed patritotic leaders after a fight of years (Patrice Lumumba. Congo 1961) or decades (Jonas Savimbi, Angola 2002 (1)).
The last stage of classic neo-colonialism
As non-renewable natural resources rapidly come to an end, it gets increasingly difficult and in some cases already impossible for the illuminati to continue to sell their agents to the population.
This is obvious if you measure any relevant process, with the "Arab Spring" in 2011 setting several milestones:
- increasing frequency or/and intensity of illuminati forced to: replace puppets; use international mercenaries alias "peacekeepers"; wage full scale war to reinstate puppets,
- decreasing capability to: keep total control of the neo-colonies; keep neo-colonial borders.
1. Illuminati forced to replace the puppet before reaching the stage of armed revolt: Tunisia 2011 (Ben Ali), Egypt 2011 (Mubarak).
2. Illuminati not able to prevent armed revolt: Libya 2011 (2), Syria 2011 (3), Yemen 2011, Central African Republic, Congo, Mali.
3. Illuminati able to replace puppet in the capital but not to regain control of all the country, following armed revolt: Libya, Yemen.
4. Illuminati forced to formally change staged democracies to dictatorships, formally (Egypt) or not (Iran):
- Iran (4); after the staged 2009 "election", illuminati puppet Ahmadinejad jailed (real winner Moussavi) or executed all the non-clandestine leaders of the opposition;
- Egypt (5): formal proclamation of the neo-nazi constitution is packaged as illuminati joke, with the population "accepting" it in a "referendum" cooked by the puppets in the role of "Muslim Brotherhood".
5. Illuminati resort to "peacekeepers" to fight the freedom fighters in a increasingly longer list of neo-colonies.
Goma, Congo, December 2012, sets a milestone: these international mercenaries did not dare engage in combat against the M25 freedom fighters (6).
6. Illuminati forced to totally let the mask fall to regain control: Ivory Coast 2011 (7).
Illuminati had to resort to the ultimate combination in order to destroy ivorian president Laurent Gbago, a patriotic christian:
- use planes and helicopters to bomb the city of Abidjan, population over 3 million. To air bomb an african capital, an unprecedented act in the neo-colonial world, the illuminati only need to use the french butchers;
- push the ethnic-religious card to the utter limits, genocide.
7. illuminati agents replaced by patriotic leaders, illuminati not able to regain control: from Rwanda and Guinea-Bissau to Venezuela, Bolivia, Ecuador and Argentina (8).
This marks the begin of the process of the population finally gaining control over the previously plundered national resources.
8. Illuminati not able to keep neo-colonial borders.
Unprecedented victories of independence fighters against the artificial borders of the classic neo-colonial world:
- South Sudan becomes independent in 2011, after decades fighting without any foreign support;
- victorious battles, from the tuaregs in northern Mali to the Kurds in Turkey, Iran and Iraq.
B. Neo-Colonialism, End Times Paradox explained worldwide first by Last Prophet Matt Marriott
The Neo-Colonialist End Times Paradox
During illuminati overtime, the last leg of illuminati end times, Neo-colonialism becomes an End Times Paradox.
Neo-colonialism is both the last stage ...
- before freedom, for former colonies, from Egypt to Argentina;
- before colonialism, for former empires, from Portugal to the UK.
1. The population of former colonies finally gains control over national resources.
The end of neo-colonialism nears, as more and more;
- people revolt, from Tunisia and Egypt to South Africa.
- protesters finally get weapons and begin to break the slavery chains, from Libya and Syria to the Central African Republic and Congo;
- colonial borders begin to be redrawn, starting with South Sudan;
- patriotic leaders replace illuminati agents, from Rwanda to Venezuela and Argentina.
2. The populace of former colonial empires, now reduced to beasts, peacefully accepts:
- to be first neo-colonized
- to have their countries turned to colonies;
- to finally let be reduced to slaves.
