Re: BREAKING: US Deploying Troops to 35 African Countries
The White House and Pentagon officials are reportedly at loggerheads over the prospect of an imminent US military intervention in Mali.

Citing unnamed US officials, The Los Angeles Times reported on Friday that there is a sharp debate between the White House and the US Defense Department over whether the militants in northern Mali constitute enough of a threat to necessitate a military action.

Top Pentagon officials warn that unless Washington embarks on aggressive measures, Mali could turn into an Afghanistan-style safe haven for extremist groups

However, top White House aides dispute Pentagon’s contention that the militants in Mali could pose future challenges against the US.

The White House aides reportedly express concern that any conflict with an elusive enemy in Mali could drag US into an Afghan-like quagmire.

Conflict in the Congo: Geopolitics of Plunder

January 20, 2013 (excerpt from Nile Bowie's Congo’s M23 conflict: Rebellion or Resource War?) - It must be recognized that Kagame controls a vastly wealthy and mineral-rich area of eastern Congo – an area that has long been integrated into Rwanda’s economy – with total complicity from the United States.

As Washington prepares to escalate its military presence throughout the African continent with AFRICOM, the United States Africa Command, what long-term objectives does Uncle Sam have in the Congo, considered the world’s most resource-rich nation?

Washington is crusading against China's export restrictions on minerals that are crucial components in the production of consumer electronics such as flat-screen televisions, smart phones, laptop batteries, and a host of other products.

The US sees these Chinese export policies as a means of Beijing attempting to monopolize the mineral and rare earth market.

Re: BREAKING: US Deploying Troops to 35 African Countries
In a 2010 white paper entitled “Critical Raw Materials for the EU,” the European Commission cites the immediate need for reserve supplies of tantalum, cobalt, niobium, and tungsten among others; the US Department of Energy 2010 white paper “Critical Mineral Strategy” also acknowledged the strategic importance of these key components.

In 1980, Pentagon documents acknowledged shortages of cobalt, titanium, chromium, tantalum, beryllium, and nickel.

The US Congressional Budget Office’s 1982 report “Cobalt: Policy Options for a Strategic Mineral” notes that cobalt alloys are critical to the aerospace and weapons industries and that 64 per cent of the world’s cobalt reserves lay in the Katanga Copper Belt, running from southeastern Congo into northern Zambia.

Mali: One war can hide another

A long time in the making and announced by François Hollande six months in advance, the French intervention in Mali was portrayed as an emergency decision in response to dramatic developments.

This scheme aims not only at seizing Mali’s gold and uranium, but more especially at paving the way for the destabilization of Algeria.

In response to the politically damaging hostage crisis in Algeria, the UK government will be increasing efforts in North Africa in an effort to combat al-Qaida in the region, according to various British media. The Algerian hostage crisis left six Britons dead.

Back to topic:

Obama & the black caucus (along with the other loud mouthed, self serving activist types) have long wanted the US embroiled in Africa. They have some wet dream fantasy about this place that will never be realized.

Furthermore, this have a great deal to do with keeping the Chinese from acquiring resources. What these idiots do not realize is that Africa will keep the Chinese entertained for a couple centuries & prevent them from coveting current US held resources --

-- but that would require a long term perspective from our hyper myopic govt.

for at least a few weeks now, but I will say that at least it got pinned this time. Need to raise awareness of this situation.

Also if you look at this thread above, there is another link posted from last summer in addition to the latest, as they have been planning this for awhile!
