Some Dictators in Africa consorting with the USA/West to exploit their own country and people

 The fact of the matter is that there are still some Dictators in Africa consorting with the USA and the West to exploit their own country for their own benefit. These are not stupid African leaders as some may think. They are as smart as you can imagine, but corruption has turned them into traitors to their own country. All they care for is how to feather their own nests and how much the Whites are sharing with them in exploiting the resources of their country,

These traitors do not care what good Russia and China are doing in Africa. They have eyes too, but they rather turn a blind eye and continue enriching themselves than caring about what happens to their country. After all, they know they cannot rule forever and at some stage must give way. So, why not make hay while the sun shines.

And if some are saying that some African leaders are even condemning Russia and China, it goes without saying. China and Russia are spoiling their lucrative relationship with their colonial masters in a bilateral win-win situation. Why allow China and Russia to end all that?

Many ways the West exert control of the world...Setting debt traps using IMF and World Bank is one

 There are many ways the West is using to exert control of the world apart from the US$ hegemony.

Setting debt traps is one, which the IMF and World Bank were created to undertake the task. Today, we can see many countries like Argentina, Bangladesh and Sri Lanka being ensnared into the debt traps set by the IMF and World Bank. Argentina is behaving like an obedient dog towards the USA, even professing to support the US$ hegemony by dollarizing its economy.

Keeping countries perennially poor is another way that the USA and the West exert control over poor countries. Without development and infrastructure, poor countries cannot never hope to progress and extricate themselves from poverty and needs help, which the West via the IMF or World Bank would never give them for development. Why let them progress and grow rich which will make them more difficult to control? When China came into the picture to offer help to those poor countries, it set off alarm bells in the West and the demonization of China setting debt traps became a mainstream mantra.

The fear is that what China did with itself, going from poverty stricken to become the second biggest economy, is going to be allowed to play out and transplanted into other countries, which will give communism a moral victory over democracy.

Western loans are designed to keep the African and South American states forever poor and in debt

 After the Opium Wars 1839-1842 and 1856-1860 China was reduced to a semi-colonial state of many Western countries notably England, France, Russia, United States and Japan. All these countries occupied enclaves in Chinese ports, cities and towns under their total control with their own exclusive laws under their extra-territorial rights. 

In the aftermath of the First World War 1914-1918, Doctor Sun Yat Sen and his KMT government requested help for financial loan in the 1920s from the Western countries, Russia and Japan for China's national development. Dr. Sun Yat Sen's request for help was turned down by all of them claiming it was not to their interest to help China to develop and be united as they would all lose their extra-territorial rights to exploit China. They would rather keep China poor and disunited. Besides financial exploitation, this caused China to lose Outer Mongolia and Tannu Tuva ( formerly part of Outer Mongolia ) to Russia due to Russia's vile deception and dirty scheming and plot against China. 

Similarly the African countries are now facing the same situation as China before. Western countries will never help all countries of the South in Africa and South America to develop and grow rich as if this happens they will not be able to exploit these countries for their own selfish ends. Their policy and attitude is to keep these countries permanently poor to be subjected to their never ending exploitation of their economy and national resources. So Western loans with very high interests especially from US, World Bank and IMF is basically geared to keep Africa and South America countries permanently poor. Normally a greater part of their loan will be used up to pay the very high salaries of Western so-called expertise, building of expensive luxurious apartments to house them and buying of US overpriced technical equipment and machines. So usually in practice most of the loans money is sent back to US. 

What is left of the remainder of the loan is not even enough to pay for the interest of the loan. Every year the debt of a loan is added to the debt of the next year's loan. So it is a vicious cycle of Western loan that is geared to keep poor countries of Africa and South America permanently poor to the selfish benefits of the self-serving US and other Western countries and Japan.

Whereas very low interest loans from China in using it to build local infrastructures like roads and railways, ports, towns, cities, hospitals, schools, universities and sports stadiums will go a long way to develop all these countries of the South. China's tangible aid and loan is there for all to see. Very often China is generous and benevolent enough to write off the debt or reschedule the loan to serve the interest of these poor countries. 

Thus it is vicious for US and the West to charge high interest expensive loans with nothing tangible to show but just to keep the borrowing countries of the South, in Africa and Souh America permanently poor and subject to Western control. The West led by US is really vicious and deplorable.

The USA will not let the world have peace until it achieves its goal of World Hegemony .

The United States will not let the world have peace until it achieves its goal of World Hegemony. It's a pipe dream. Under the leadership of Russia, Iran and China the BRICS countries and other countries of the South in Africa, South America, Asia and the Arabs muslims Middle East will never let it happen. The demon political leaders and politicians in US and EU must look themselves into the mirror to see if they are qualified. They are a bunch of mixed bag scums, rotten trash, low end thugs, hoodlums, brigands, rogues and scoundrels. They are thinking too much of themselves. 

The free world and countries of the South must never trust USA/West in all talks and negotiations for they never mean to keep and honour it. The moment they walk out of the talks' venue they will treat all agreements agreed upon as null and void. Then they go back to do the same dirty schemes and plots. 

There are many perspectives to look into as to why the US and its European allies are so savage and aggressive that for thousands of years they have been giving the world troubles and miseries to no end. Just like the Jews the white people from Europe especially the Anglo-Saxons claim that they are the chosen people of God. The Anglo-British and its offspring the US also think they are a superior race just as the Germans did. So as a superior race they feel entitled and expect all non-white people must be subservient to them to their control. Nothing less than their dominance is acceptable to them. 

But of course other people don't feel that way especially people from ancient civilizations like Egypt, Iraq, Arabia, Persia or Iran and China or Russia. So how can an upstart like USA which erupted from violent breakaway from British hostile colonisation of North America only about 250 years ago in 1776 claim superiority to lord over all other non-white countries in this global earth. It is a sort of really preposterous and unacceptable. 

But as the US persists on its path of world hegemony it becomes very irrationally aggressive and create wars to achieve its insane objective of world dominance. Previously US could attack and invade small or big but weak countries and got away with impunity. The US had destroyed all the self-governing native American states through genocide and acquired by force from Mexico the states of Texas, Utah, Arizona, Colorado, Nebraska, Wyoming, New Mexico and California, a combine territory of one million six hundred and sixty-five thousand square miles or half of present United States of America. 

Then US proceeded to attack and invade Hawaii and took over Hawaii Islands through a combination of deception, subterfuge and military might. It also occupied Puerto Rico, Guam and the Philippines through war and subterfuge in 1898 when it drove out Spain from these three territories. It also went on to grab and control all the South Pacific Island countries with impunity as these islanders do not have the means and power of resistance. 

In 1967 US took control of Diego Garcia Islands in the Indian Ocean through subterfuge via deception and betrayal by the British the former colonial occupier of these islands. US then used the military bases it built on Diego Garcia Islands in its attack and invasion of Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya, Somalia and Sudan. 

From the aforementioned description of US past wild savage invasions that it felt it was so easy like eating a piece of cake. Then it tried to do the same to North Korea, Vietnam and Afghanistan and found it too late that these were hard nuts to crack and was thus dully defeated. The United States doesn't seem to learn any lesson from its defeat in Korea, Vietnam and Afghanistan. It tries to do the same to China, Russia and Iran. But however, being a coward it dare not confront these three powers directly but guillely tries to use its allies as pawns to fight these three powerful big countries as its proxy wars. 

In the case of Russia it is using Ukraine and against Iran it is using the hateful Zionist Jews in Israel. As against China it is arming and instigating Taiwan to rebel and fight for secession. In all its diabolical undertakings to achieve its geopolitical motive for world hegemony USA is creating unnecessary risk and danger for nuclear war against Russia, China, Iran and North Korea which will definitely bring total destruction to mankind and end to humanity on global earth. 

Why is Anglo-Saxon US so hard headed and pig headed that it is suffering from a comatose brain not to see the lethal danger ahead? Why does it insist and persist on dominating the whole world and pose the mortal danger to mankind and humanity? The American people must wake up and stop their psychopath warhawk leaders from this dangerous path to nuclear war and end of mankind. 

Similarly sane citizens in all European countries who are allies of US must do likewise to stop their neurotic leaders from following the US road to destruction. But US and its allies like to falsely portray other countries like Russia, Iran, North Korea and China as evil aggressors. These countries have no overseas military bases in which USA have over a thousand and France and England have many. So where does aggression come from. It comes from having foreign military bases and the power to trample on others with impunity and so it clearly shows Western countries are aggressive warhawks especially the US, England and France. The evil diabolical aggression of US and the West must be stopped henceforth and be destroyed and send into oblivion.

Africa and Arab/Muslim states growing world stature through BRICS

 No one in the western world listen to the Africans or the Arabs and Muslims. Africa is still in many ways colonised and dysfunctional states controlled by the Americans and their ex colonial powers. Whatever China or Russia are trying to do to lift the Africans up from poverty, to develop their infrastructure, to strengthen their military and control of their own destiny, some African leaders are still singing the American chorus, that the Chinese and Russians are like the Americans and their colonial masters, out to exploit and colonise them. This is the narrative the Americans and the West have implanted into the heads of Africans, until they cannot tell the difference between the colonial masters and plunderers of their countries, from what China and Russia are doing for them. They could not see that China and Russia did not bring a gun to point at their heads. China and Russia treat every African state as equal and work with them on mutually negotiated and agreed upon projects.

There is no free lunch, nothing is for free. Only under colonialism that everything for the colonial masters were free to take, to plunder and to exploit, even to take lives. China and Russia came for trade and to assist if invited by the African states, not with gunboats and guns to rob and steal. Many African states have benefited from the assistance of China and Russia and are making progress to rebuild their countries to become modern industrialised state in the making. Still, they are taken for granted by the Americans and the west as shithole states, not to be taken seriously, not to be heard or noticed.

In many ways the Arab and Muslim states are not faring any better. Some have been invaded and the countries and economies in ruins, people killed or wounded, driven into becoming refugees, but no compensation from the invaders. And the invaders are still in their countries, occupying their land and conquerors, refusing to live, the new colonial masters, under the pretext of fighting terrorists, of which were created by the invaders. They demonised Arab and Muslim freedom fighters as terrorists when the white men are the real terrorists, terrorising the Arab and Muslim countries.

Many Arab and Muslim states are de facto colonies of the Americans, with American military bases in their land, to control them and to conduct regime change if they did not behave.  In other words, the African and Arab and Muslim states are anything but independent states under the control of the Americans and the West. They exist without existing, independent but not independence. They talk, shout and scream, but no one is listening or taking them seriously.

In BRICS, the African and Arab and Muslim states could find a place in the new organisation, to be noticed, to be recognised, to be heard, and to be taken seriously. They have a voice and a place in BRICS, not to be taken for granted, like furnitures. BRICS would give the African and Arab and Muslim states the recognition they deserved as independent nation states, to share their concerns and to fight for their own national interests on a platform that every nation state, big or small, is equal in the organisation. BRICS is their own private club. They need not wait outside the door of G7 or G20, waiting to be invited as a guest but with no speaking rights or any rights at all.

BRICS will elevate the stature and importance of every African and Arab and Muslim state to be the equals in the family of nation states. They would not be seen as shitholes and dysfunctional states to be forgotten on the side line of the community of nation states. The voices of African and Arab and Muslim states would be heard in BRICS, loud and clear.
