"U.S. forces in Africa are keeping a watchful eye on China, ..."

For old people like me, this, clearly, is a 1930's redux...
Back then, the pinko in the WH only mumbled incoherently about the japs on the march across the globe...

—”Chinese colonies are just a matter of time, and opportunity.”

Time is a huge question.
How long will the US and Europe keep feeding the beast?

Their internal costs are very high and China needs the outside income to finance their adventures.

OH, but Apple and Tesla and... can make their products affordable using Chinese labor.
Until China has the complete manufacturing process worked out and milked the foreigners dry.

If China took over Africa would they have to take full care of all the families on total welfare from cradle to grave? What exactly is Africa’s value now that Rommel and Patton are no longer battling there?
