How China's taking over Africa, and why the West should be VERY worried

Reminiscent of the West's imperial push in the 18th and 19th centuries - but on a much more dramatic, determined scale - China's rulers believe Africa can become a 'satellite' state, solving its own problems of over-population and shortage of natural resources at a stroke.

With little fanfare, a staggering 750,000 Chinese have settled in Africa over the past decade. More are on the way.

The strategy has been carefully devised by officials in Beijing, where one expert has estimated that China will eventually need to send 300 million people to Africa to solve the problems of over-population and pollution.

The plans appear on track. Across Africa, the red flag of China is flying. Lucrative deals are being struck to buy its commodities - oil, platinum, gold and minerals. New embassies and air routes are opening up. The continent's new Chinese elite can be seen everywhere, shopping at their own expensive boutiques, driving Mercedes and BMW limousines, sending their children to exclusive private schools.

They seem to be getting along with the Muslims in the Middle East and Central Asia just fine.

[Genoa]

Exactly what I had in mind. Brazil from West Africa and Alaska from Kamchatka. Game over.

[mojitojoe]

Africans should ask the Tibetans what China will do to them.

Those here on FR who say that our debt to, and trade relationship with, China is a "win-win" because they claim China has to spend their money here, ignore the fact that China is buying metals and other resources around the world with money that we need here.

[Palter]

Great, China can have Africa.

[radpolis]

And liberals aren’t anywhere to be found crying about social injustice.

Liberals believe White people can only be imperialistic and racist.

[pappyone]

You been playin’ Risk?

[Genoa]

Let’s just say one of the players is piling up armies in Asia.

[Zionist Conspirator]

And China won’t worry one bit about charges of ‘racism’; they’ll just plow right ahead and take over the whole continent.

Ever notice that Commies that actually come to power aren't politically correct?

[Boucheau]

Communists don’t exist and they are certainly no threat to the US.

Just ask Bill O’Reilly, and most Americans.

[stephenjohnbanker]

Yeah ;-)

That was a very popular argument made to defend Bush, even Rush was using it up till early 2009 when the democrats took over and started spending . As long as the economy is slow we wont see big price inflation; but if there ever was a recovery you would expect huge commodity price inflation of those materials China is buying that we will need, killing our recovery. Worse yet is some inflation with high unemployment.

While China invests in businesses, energy, metals, cheap labor (???) we invest in food stamps, unemployment compensation, stimulus tax ‘credit’ checks, illegal immigrants, public sector unions, you can see where this is headed.

I know a fellow from Africa, he hates the Chinese masters. Well, the poor tenant in the city usually hates the landlord. Common sense says this cant work but there is no politically acceptable fix right now.

[LearsFool]

ROFL!!!

And watch them do nothing while AIDS and famine ethnically cleanses Africa

While Obama banishes our offshore platforms from the Gulf and does his damndest to charge us for carbon dioxide.

[Right Wing Assault]

the ChiComs like swift retribution and don’t put up with a lot of crap

And they don't have their news media giving all the details.

Indian ran the shops in Uganda, for a while. Then Idi Amin ordered all Indians out of the country upon pain of death, on the theory that his cronies could steal what they left behind.

The African dictators will discover that trying to steal the assets of a subsidiary of the Chinese Peoples Liberation Army is distinctly ... unwise.

[PapaBear3625]

Well and all the extra single men for running the “security forces” that will be used to strong arm out the indigenous peoples.

The single men in the security forces will be happy to provide spare food to African women(the African men can starve) in exchange for companionship.

Right now, the best place for China to invest those $billions in trade surplus, is in colonizing and taking over Africa.

If China allows any blacks to survive in those areas where there are assets of value, they will be faced with endless guerrilla war. The Chinese are masters of guerrilla warfare.

Mao's book on guerilla warfare depicted the guerillas as fish, and the populace as the water the fish swam in. To get rid of guerillas, drain the pond. Drive off or eliminate the people who might give them support and shelter.
