My new column for The Week on the effects of the Libyan war is online.

Update: Joshua Keating points out new reports out of Mali about mutinous soldiers rebelling against the Malian government because of its handling of the Tuareg uprising:

Anger has been growing within the army at the handling of a Tuareg-led rebellion that has killed dozens of people and forced nearly 200,000 civilians to flee their homes.
