    The Tuareg also known as The Blue Men of the Desert are a formidable force since they basically have silently ruled the desert for thousands of years. I had the pleasure of teaching the Tuareg in Niger how to build domes out of sandbags for long term protection and food storage. They also can be used as embattlements. They are a matriarchal society although their culture has also integrated Islam as well. They are a rich and beautiful culture. They play bad ass electric guitar and a band you should listen to is Tinariwen if you like good music.

    I spent 28 days with them. The last 3 days were one long sandstorm. The longest I had ever been in, worse than what I had seen in the ME. We finished the project early as they are actually very good at hard labor, and they basically fell in love with my building partner and worked harder for her lol. Anyway, I hope they wipe every Russian merc off the continent. All the Russians do is cause trouble.

          Nah that was my fault, I first pasted a wrong link on accident and edited the post but the bot was faster than me.

            Hmm.

            Not updating the reliability comment when the URL updates seems like at least a minor problem with the bot, since someone could post a link to a reputable site and then to a non-reputable one.

            Okay, the site info wouldn’t match and a user could notice that, but an attacker could make a similar URL.
