In June 2007 an article by Thomas P.M. Barnett “The Americans Have Landed” was published in the magazine Esquire about the opening of a base in the Horn of Africa. By 2012 the Pentagon will have two dozen of such forts.
The article is giving a lot of background information about the region were the War on Terror is fought, next to Iraq and Afghanistan.
