  1. ​ @hotstepper887 I skimmed over your long text. I have asked over and over again for the Americans that parrot "Thank you for your service sir" to tell me what they are thanking the Veteran for? I never get an answer, not even from the Vets. BUT I have noticed that the parroting has reduced!

  2. The Sahel region is going to be the new grain belt for the world in this "global climate change". This land and its control is very precious. Food is the resource that most people will want! Also transport from one side of Africa to the other.

  3.  @JLSMaytham  Yes, thank you and to grow food you need water. The region has aquifers.

  4. I've also read that the West agreed with Africans to help mine their resources in return for them to make finished goods then promptly didn't pay much for the resource, closed all avenues to even sell a finished good and of course indebted them so they never got off the ground. American and western countries in cohoots with their corporations proceeded to loot them. Have you seen how Africans are used to mine the ores. It's like a scene out of Ben Hur in biblical times. The West don't deserve anything. Remove the cheats, liars and thieves. Most recent example to end this without a coup was when the chocolate bean growers in West Africa told the Swiss government that they would process their own beans before shipping Cocoa. A step in the right direction!

  5. You always know the double standards when Venezuela wants to use its resources to help its people, it is couped. If Norway uses its resources to help its people benefit it is not 🚫 couped!
