"An arc of instability stretching across Africa's Sahel region, an area of strategic interest for the United States and its allies, is plagued by violent extremist organizations (VEOs). These organizations, including Boko Haram, al Qaeda, and other terror groups, have metastasized and present a serious threat to regional stability. Now these VEOs are transitioning. Under sustained pressure from French and regional security forces, and reeling from the loss of senior leaders, many of these groups feel backed into a corner. Despite setbacks, the groups continue to plague the region. To enhance policymakers' understanding of these threats and how to respond to them, CSIS experts from the Africa Program and Transnational Threats Project conducted field-based and scholarly research examining the broad range of factors at play in the region. This research provides little ground for optimism. Chronic underdevelopment, political alienation, failed governance and corruption, organized crime, and spillover from Libya help foster and sustain violent extremists throughout the Sahel"--Publisher's web site.

Au cours des dernieres annees, le Mali fut mine par la rebellion des Touareg, leur revendication sur l'Azawad, les dissensions interethniques et les contrecoups de la chute de Kadahafi avec le reflux d'armes et de miliciens de Libye, ce qui ne pouvait que fortifier et alimenter AQMI. Les islamistes s'emparent de l'Azawad et visent a occuper tout le pays : apres Tombouctou, les insurges foncent sur Bamako en appliquant la charia la plus barbare, telle que la lapidation des femmes adulteres. L'Etat malien est sur le point de s'ecrouler et le pays d'eclater, de disparaitre. A tres breve echeance. La France reagit dans l'urgence pour eviter ce tremblement de terre mortel pour cette region d'Afrique, avec des repercussioons dramatiques en France, notamment, a partir de ces banlieues dites pudiquement 'sensibles'. L'auteur analyse les hesitations occidentales voire algeriennes (avant la prise du site gazier d'In Amenas), decrit l'intervention militaire francaise, notamment dans l'Adrar des Ifoghas, les negociations pour batir une force d'intervention un tant soit peu efficace dans un pays ou regnent la corruption et divers trafics (en particulier de drogue). Un livre qui dit crument les verites chocs sur une situation dont les consequences pourraient etre terrifiantes.
