And i saw a report that China is helping out Argentina in some way and the US was a bit pissed about it, did you look into this story Rob ?

RE: One Belt and Road Initiative growing stronger

I see the US and the usual suspects UK, Canada, Norway etc etc are launching a naval operation in the Red sea aimed at protecting the shipping route and taking some out on Yemen, it was described in the way of the US and the usual school yard bullies/suspects are going to have to take their justice out on the kid in the wheelchair in the school yard Yemen;;; in support of the spoilt rich kid of the school yard Israel, how much more credability do western countries have left to loose.. doh

The US has been busted with bio weapons labs and such in Africa not sure on to much detail, but Russia was accusing the US of bio weapons labs in Africa a couple of months ago..
I don't know if or how this will effect the Niger US relationship, i see the US makes air strikes in Somalia for the first time in months weather the air strikes were made from the drone base in Niger dunno

Guyana and Venezuela back away from a war over the Essequibo region in Guyana, this region has a big gas/oil field under the rain forest there and has a big gas/oil field of the coast..

RE: One Belt and Road Initiative growing stronger

For most of the week i've been hearing that Russia has deployed troops on the Syrian border with Israel, it's to show some might to Israel and Netanyahu that Russia means business..
Turkey has also been sending troops to Israel for about a month now and still no action, China and Saudi Arabia have been sanctioning Israel for about a month to but still stopping Israel..

It seems to me that little man Yemen is the only country that's really making any mark on restricting Israel, straight off the back of 7 to 8 year civil war in Yemen up against Saudi Arabia and the US here they are taking on the spoilt brat Israel... Well Done Yemen.. head banger

RE: One Belt and Road Initiative growing stronger

China and Russia finally sanction their sales of uranium to the US, the US will have to look at other countries for uranium.. Kazakhstan is a big uranium producer but Aussie would be a push over for the US, your mate Albanese will have to suck up to Biden again Rob..

On the uranium note the US has fully decoupled from Niger yet, top US officials were in Burkina Faso and Niger last week trying to suck up to the coup leaders;; knowing full well the history of Burkina making deals and trading with North Korea, it's seems the standards of trade with NK vary to suit situations on the fly..
If the US is going to try Burkina and Niger as trade partners they are going to have to put up with Russia in the equation as well, not to sure how this will pan out with the big US drone base in Niger...

RE: One Belt and Road Initiative growing stronger

Over the weekend Burkina Faso and Niger pulled out of the G5 Sahel security alliance, and most likely the other 3 countries in the security alliance will follow;; France is head of this security alliance but many of the French troops have been sent home some time ago now..

US lawmakers block aid package to the Ukraine, now the US lawmakers are realizing that all the aid and money being sent to the Ukraine is being wasted with corrupt ammo and weapons deals that are making the Ukraine leaders wealthy..

China is making the most of their money by investing in many different countries with infrastructure and building projects, while the US invests in weapons, destroying countries and their economies..
In many ways the US is trying print so much rubbish money and fire it into the world financial system to still dominate the worlds money systems, the fruits of the US investments will surely come back and bite them in the arse soon;; the US is trying make as many countries suffer along with them for their stupid investments...

RE: One Belt and Road Initiative growing stronger

It's all good Rob we will abandon the NZ govt and let them pay the debt they have made, and pull a Burkina Faso trick changing the rules to suit the people of NZ not big business and so called economic progress..

I see the Israeli defense force shot 3 Israeli hostages that were waving white flags, has Israel given an actual number of hostages Hamas has ?

Yemen attacks more ships in the Red sea, and a British warship shoots down a drone in the Red sea that Yemen's houthis are claiming responsibility for..
It's the first real action a British warship has seen for long time..

RE: One Belt and Road Initiative growing stronger

I see you didn't mention NZ's debt Rob, it's probably a piss in the Pacific ocean compared to some other countries debts..

The Niger coup leader said Burkina, Mali and Niger are looking at securing a stable currency for all 3 countries, no time frames have been mentioned but the Niger leader did say that was part of talks with Burkina and Mali leaders over the last week..

Burkina is starting to take action against the terrorist groups within the country, some of the Burkina military is made up of volunteer fighters for their home land..

A about a week ago i saw a report on a Chinese mining queen that was busted Ghana i think, but this Chinese mining queen was caught exploiting the Ghana mining sector and has had the stop button pushed on her..
This is the first case i've heard of any Chinese companies being exposed in Africa so far..

RE: One Belt and Road Initiative growing stronger

The French Franc currency rip off in some African countries is out in the open, when France buys anything from the Franc using African countries the French govt and bank that controls the Franc currency manipulates the Franc currency up in value before France buys anything;; once France has brought what they want they devalue the Franc currency back down so it's more expensive for these African countries to buy anything..

Another big rip off is the big mining companies in African countries, Burkina Faso has waited until the mining companies contracts and licenses have expired then they are made to negotiate a much fairer contract..
The royalties that many African countries get from foreign mining companies is only a faction of what's really fair, the royalties that African countries get can be as low as 0.3 % of the value of what been extracted..
In the case of Niger's uranium sales to France, France was paying 80 cents per kilo when the market value is around 200 euro's per kilo..

The Russian mining company Nordgold has also been told to renegotiate their mining contracts in Burkina, due to companies using old royalty contracts and treaties of past Burkina govts...
But this Russian mining company is the most trusted by the Burkina leader and govt, because they get their setup work done in the time frames, they don't go over budget and 95% of this companies workers are from Burkina..

RE: One Belt and Road Initiative growing stronger

Burkina Faso, Mali and Niger are working out a way to end the French colonial tax in their countries, workers of foreign countries that work for foreign companies their tax is payed to the foreign companies country..
This is just the workers of foreign countries and companies, then it's makes me wonder if these foreign companies are paying their fair share of tax to the countries they are extracting raw materials from..
This is 1 way to hammer the big companies western govts can't handle..

Burkina, Mali and Niger are also looking at an alternative banking/financial system that won't leaves them stranded if other African counties like the ECOWAS try to sanction them, It was about 2 weeks after the Niger coup that the amount of foreign currencies on the African continent come up..
The French Franc was the main foreign currency that was said to be the biggest problem in the Sahel region, i haven't heard any more about Africa's currency summit in Kenya yet;; it maybe still coming up..

RE: One Belt and Road Initiative growing stronger

I see Singa's isn't towing the US line as the US expects them to, don't know what the full story is there but it looks as look Singa's is leaning towards China..

The Yemen houthis are taking aim at ships connected with Israel or cargo bound for their, i'm sure the houthis won't be targeting oil tankers of other middle eastern countries;; it would be British and Yank warships that would be the biggest threat to oil tankers from the region, because the Brits and the Yanks ain't getting much oil from the region now they have been shut out..

Algeria has also declared war on Israel, the US backing of Israel is going sink the US if they don't let Israel take their long overdue punishment by the countries that surround them..

RE: One Belt and Road Initiative growing stronger

I'm hearing that England is in panic stations mode after the US told them sanction China to the hilt, hinting that England may have join back into the EU uh oh if they can't shake the US calls of self destruction off..

The shipping has really turned to custard Rob, everything that revolves around shipping goods the prices will be sky rocketing..
I wonder if the Artic ocean routes can be used over the northern winter ? Russia must be pleased with such congestion in the main shipping routes, the Artic ocean routes maybe looking more attractive to shipping companies now..

I see China is fingering the ICC about double standards and show a bias towards western system countries, the examples of ICC standards is how they have found Putin guilty of war crimes in the Ukraine war yet they haven't made any move against Netanyahu with Palestinian 3 lawsuits in the ICC now..
Take this shady courts system out of the world equation and world could become a better place..

Mali is finally getting the UN security forces out their country, Guinea Bissau has experienced their second coup in as many months..

RE: One Belt and Road Initiative growing stronger

In a way BRICS needs some loyal opposition from the EU and US to do their normal stupid shit, so it makes BRICS look even than it really is maybe Luke.. laugh

RE: One Belt and Road Initiative growing stronger

Reports are coming out about Israel using white phosphorus on their northern border against Lebanon, 3 white phosphorus 155mm artillery shells were found close to the Lebanese border that had the Made in the US band on them..
Lebanon is reporting that 4 houses were incinerated by the white phosphorus close to the border with Israel..

Just as i thought Turkey was kicked out of NATO because of it's stance with the Palestinian people, now Turkey is ready to go all in and hammer Israel..

China sends 6 warship to the coast of Israel to deter the US in the region, those Yemen houthis keep hammering ships in the Red sea and are attacking US warships..
Briton has been warned to stay away from the Yemen coast or they will get attacked by the houthis as well, the houthis army of drones is making a huge difference in their course..

Irish politician Clare Daly has been ripping into western and colonial countries/govts in the European parliament over their destabilizing of African countries, and she been ripping them for some time now..

RE: One Belt and Road Initiative growing stronger

I forgot to mention Rob that African countries that are taking control back are also giving the boot to the French education system, who knows what shit history the French have been pushing on the African people...

They are also changing their countries constitutions to suit the average people of their countries and not suit the big companies like it has been, security will be the responsibility of the country itself not the responsibility of the company or the country where the company is from.. (stamping out some foreign policy)
I put this info up in Luke's media blog but he's pull pin on it now..

RE: One Belt and Road Initiative growing stronger

He's the last prick i ever want to know about Rob, only if he's coming to NZ then we will gather up a unwelcome party for him..

Niger closes it's borders and this meant to shock the western countries dunno mind you western countries borders are wide open so this must be the norm to let every bastard in..

Julius Malema is a SA minister that keeps ripping into African leaders that support Israel's slaughter in Gaza, siting that it's exactly how the blacks were treated in SA for so long..
Malema latest rip was aimed at the Kenya president for his support of Israel, there are other African leaders in the same line of support for Israel..

That little poor country of Yemen is making big problems for the US and Israel in the Red sea, now the US doesn't have the Saudi's to bomb the hell out of Yemen any more they will have to do their dirty work themselves..

RE: The Power of MSM

I see many African countries are booting the French media out of their countries Luke, it's looking like its not just the French media and language getting the boot but the French education system as well..
I have seen the Burkina military leader talking at high schools and universities in Burkina, Africa has the best solution to BS western media just boot the bastards out..

But it's these African countries making the new constitutions for their countries by their new govts, that's giving the big companies and western countries a hard time..
Their working it out better than any western government has ever done in the history of modern governments..

RE: One Belt and Road Initiative growing stronger

The US navy and NATO must be under some pressure from shipping companies and cargo insurance companies with many shipping routes under high seas robbery, Yemen's houthis are still seizing ships at will but mostly ships with connection or cargo destine for Israel..

The Chinese are taking to Philippine ships in the south China sea with water cannon, i think they are Philippines coast guard ships trying to push through their normal shipping routes..
China must be having a little meltdown with Philippines over something, with Philippines in the back pocket of the US they have to be pressuring the US for safer shipping routes..

And the Russians have the Artic sea shipping routes in their pocket the US navy is looking a bit uh oh well i guess that's what happens when you rely on gas baggin to get you by..

In the money sector it's said that the Fed bank is down big time on printing more monopoloy money, which is pointing to less spending by people and a slowing economy..
US banks have been tightening up on lending also..

RE: The Power of MSM

What i'm waiting for is a government to throw a major lawsuit at any big media outfit and win a big payout from 1 of them Luke, i'm sure media would be a lot more careful about what they say if a govt gets some serious coin out of 1 them..
Govts maybe able to pin media in the ICC courts in some cases where media's words cause many people to die..

That's a good reminder Rob thumbs up i and i think many other have forgotten about the plane that was shot down over the Ukraine.. thumbs up

The US is going to have make a move in Niger soon, i'm sure Niger's military is getting sick of waiting for the US to leave the country..
Burkina abandon the French language as their official language, and the same as Mali have probably kick French TV/media and newspapers out their country to...
These African countries will all end doing the same things to get western influence from their countries, the amount of African countries turning away from the western countries must be getting into double figures now and would worry the west..
If the US doesn't get their drone base out of Niger soon i would say that's going to be the next flash point for a war, because Africa is far richer than Israel or the Ukraine put together;; but then again Africa has 1.2 billion people which will be a bit harder place to conquer..

The IMF report is showing that the US accusation of China dragging African countries into a debt trap is a load of shit, with China's loans to African countries decreasing since 2017..
Most likely it's the western countries that have the debt trap in their financial treaties with any country..

There's pro Palestinian protest going on in NY that is kind of aimed at shutting down wall street, i guess its because of the US govts veto of a ceasefire in Gaza..
The New York times has a report about an Israeli nuclear weapons storage was hit on October 7, exposing Israel's nuclear weapons program to the world after the US has being saying nothing to see here people for so long..

Zelensky is said to be moving to the US because the Ukrainian people hate him so much now, the US govt is footing the bill to house and protect Zelensky..
And their moving him moving to Florida Chat, you guys might become buddies..

RE: The Power of MSM

France and NATO had a big hand in the European refugee crisis when they took down Gaddafi in Libya, Gaddafi was keeping the refugees at bay in Libya now the place is a slave and human trafficking market..

What's Venezuela up to Rob haven't they got enough oil, trying to claim land in Guyana that's said to have a huge oil field beneath it's rainforest and another big gas or oil field off the coast of Guyana..
The Chinese and Russians are investing in Venezuela's infastructure and Russia is coping some blame for Venezuela's plan to take land in Guyana, the Brits are a bit pissed about it and are the 1s fingering Russia..

I see the US blocked an Arab leaders and UN security counsel call for a cease fire in Gaza, and it has pissed Turkey off to the point of leaving NATO;; not to sure if Turkey was pushed or actually left NATO on it's own accord...

RE: One Belt and Road Initiative growing stronger

The Waitangi tribunal has their inquiry report ready to put to the new NZ govt, the inquiry is into breachs made by NZ govts/British reps on the Maori people of Ngapuhi dating way back to the 1840s..
Ngapuhi are asking for all crown land in Northland to be handed back to Maori, because of the heavy handed tactics used by the British back in the day to obtain the land..

We should really let the Moriori R.I.P Rob that's just going a bit to far back in history mate..

The Peruvian kumara has a heap of benefits for the stomach like it's gluten and starch free, apparently it's the early ancestors NZ kumara..
My mate also gave me a Jewish artichoke which i know nothing about, but i'm gonna grow it aways will found out how to cook it later..

RE: You get what you pay for...

Jax does make some good points in her last comment but no one mentions the role big banks and companies play in govts around the world, the western countries send their own armies into countries as security for their western companies;; when really those big companies should be paying the security forces of the country they are in for the job, that's the foreign policy balls up that many countries don't like..
Does the any big western countries allow a foreign companies to bring their own security forces with them..
