The Decision Advantage

On July 22, the Washington Post reported that the Trump administration is considering taking military action against al Qaeda affiliate JNIM in Mali. This comes amid an expansion of jihadist activity across West Africa at large, and follows large-scale attacks by JNIM and its allies across Mali in late April. In this episode of the Decision Advantage, RANE’s Sub-Saharan Africa analyst Remi Dodd lays out the major implications and likely scenarios.

In this episode of RANE’s new mini-series, Foreseen Effects, on The Decision Advantage, we take one verified event, one thing that happened out in the observable world, and we walk the chain. First order. Second order. Third order. And to keep us honest, we bring in an expert to think through the chain of events. Today that's Ryan Bohl, Middle East and North Africa analyst at RANE. Ryan has spent this entire crisis watching the Gulf. We'll tell the story of what happened, then bring him in with pointed questions about what happened next, and we'll keep doing that until we reach the end of the chain. The event is the closure of the Strait of Hormuz. The destination is that bread line. Join us.
