China does not screw around with Islam either. If Muslims act up they smash them. They will take over Africa. Africans had been complaining how the Chinese companies work them to death.

So in other words, no down side.

Smiling takes 6.
Pulling this trigger takes 2.

Ahh well. The Chinese will have control of vital natural resoruces for some metals. If China smashes Islam in Africa then their is an upside.

The other thing about China is down the road - they could become the largest Christian country in the world. I think if they had free will, they would chose Christianity. It is a very optional choice that is not usually imposed on people like Islam.

Another downside is the destruction of the habitat for wild animals but Africa is big. Maybe the Chinese will stop the killing of elephants.
