Ep 009 "French COIN: Algeria: Losing Afrique (Part Two)"

An unauthorized podcast series peeking behind the curtain at the vast machinery and briar patch politics of fighting terrorism and insurgency and everything in between. I'm a "COINtra" and not a "COINdinista", the latter are the vast army of apparatchiks and apologists who fire the engines of Irregular Warfare (IW) planet-wide.

I have noticed a jarring gap in this part of the discussion and intend on filling the breach.<a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://cgpodcast.substack.com/">Substack: Chasing Ghosts: An Irregular Warfare Podcast</a><a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://libertarianinstitute.org/cgpodcast/">Smedley D.
