We see, yet again, the lies and deception which have become part & parcel of American "diplomacy".
Firstly, the city of Atlanta is a direct violation of the long-standing border agreement which existed between our two nations. However, we were prepared to overlook this transgression in the interests of better relations.
Instead, the American "king" (merely a despot with a fancy title) chose to abuse our trust by attacking the long-established city of Goa-a city that stands no further north than Kumbi Saleh, & which lies firmly on the Western Side of the Endless Mountains (or should I say, laid? Oh, how I hear the moans of the innocent dead of Goa calling for JUSTICE).
This he did AFTER securing a secret technology from us. The baseness of the betrayal is clear for any fair-minded nation to see.
The city which America asked for was not Goa, but Walata. We were prepared to give up that city in return for Atlanta. Failing that, we gave the secret technology-and a promise to leave Atlanta unmolested-in return for peace. This is the peace AMERICA chose to break with their cowardly sneak attack.
They offer to help "rebuild" Goa, but how can we trust the words of a treacherous snake who has already stabbed us in the back?
No, we Malinese are a peaceful nation by nature, but we will not endure constant betrayal. We shall have peace & good relations with the Americans again, but only when Atlanta is a smoking ruin.
