China’s control of mining and subversion of Canada, contd
If China can continue to consolidate its influence in Central Asia and with Russia’s help continue to consolidate the mining industry we will not be looking at a new multilateral relationship but rather China as the new sole superpower.
I question whether “These transactions mean that we are seeing the continual pursuit of the Bushonian agenda to increase the resource dependency of the United States,” In my opinion this is way out of control.
Because it is so invasive it is evident Bush has lost it. Without firing a shot China is besting him. This is not even a contest for China against the simple-minded Bush.

Excerpt:
The mining industry is rapidly being consolidated. Last week, Russia’s Norilsk Nickel purchased a $1.7 billion stake in AngloGold. Iamgold purchased the entire Wheaton River Gold Corporation, which is Canada’s third largest gold producer. The Chinese have also effectively kicked out all US and Western companies as investors out of PetroChina.
China is also saying that they’re going to kick out Freeport and Phelps out of the huge Mongolian copper development deal. The Russians have also said that they want to kick out any Western interests in the Tran Siberian oil development.
These transactions mean that we are seeing the continual pursuit of the Bushonian agenda to increase the resource dependency of the United States. Why? In order to justify building the American Military Empire in the 21st Century for the purpose of global domination of resources.
Bushonian policies and back-handed wink and a nod and a push is being used to increase America‘s future resource dependency on other nations. This comes in tandem with the announcement by the Treasury that the national reserves of silver are exhausted, and they will have to begin to purchase silver on the open market. Furthermore the Treasury confirmed what I had long suspected – that the entire US strategic inventory of copper, nickel and other metals has also been sold and is now exhausted.
And this is the connection between these events and America’s future reliance on foreign minerals, in all of these multi-billion dollar mining and oil and gas transactions this week, in which one company is buying another. The result of this will be reducing American ownership of global commodity resources.
In the future, global oil will not be coming form the Middle East. It will be coming from Russia China and the trans-Caucasus region. That is the planet’s future oil supply. The Middle East oil fields, as Saudi Arabia recently said, are drying out. And this is what the Bushonian Cabal is doing – looking to the future – in order to pursue its agenda.
Russian and Chinese companies are purchasing the world's oil, gold, silver, and other specialty metals and minerals/ mining reserves and production/ refining facilities. This is a consolidation in Russian and Chinese companies and an expansion of control of resources. This fits into the Bushonian agenda of making Russia and China the New Boogeymen – as in if they then control the resources, we have to take it from them.
The only way we can do that is, as PNAC says, by the construction of an American Military Empire in the 21st century, since we are the only country which could now go further into debt in order to build such an empire for the purpose of controlling those resources, which the Russians and Chinese are currently purchasing WITH the support and a wink and a nod from the Bush Cheney Regime. This will make the United States more resource dependent in the future.
Another part of this scheme is, as we’ve stated before, how the Bush Cheney Regime has acted to diminish resource production in the United States, particularly oil and gas, which continues to fall. This is done by not opening up the few remaining untapped proven reserves the nation has in Alaska, the Eastern Rockies and the offshore oil and gas deposits in California and Florida. These are the only four untapped proven reserves the US has left. The Bush Cheney Regime explains this by saying – oh we’re trying to be environmentally sensitive. That’s nonsense. They don’t want those resources tapped – on purpose. They want the price of hydro-carbon fuels to increase. They want US dependency on foreign hydrocarbon energy to increase.
Also it should be noted that the gold and silver production in the United States has declined perilously. Under the Bush Cheney Regime , domestic production of gold silver platinum and palladium production has ground to a halt.
What they’re doing is turning back the clock. It’s rebuilding and expanding the old American strategic spheres of influence. This is not “adventurism.” This is simply placing troops in other people’s countries – and keeping them there forever. You could call this the permanent occupation of OPCs (Other People’s Countries). This goes back to the old Roman Empire model of the control of resources.
As Julius Caesar said, Nations do not lose wars because they run out of soldiers, but rather because they run out of silver. The creation of all empires in history has relied on the control of resources because that is what is needed to build an empire.
The buying up and consolidation of mining companies therefore provides the excuse for the Bush Cheney Regime to build up the American Military Empire, but they themselves, the Bushonian Cabal are profiting along the way by having interests in a mining company or oil and gas company (the natural resources companies) which are being taken over. This is the essence of American Kleptocracy. http://216.239.57.104/search?q=cache:cnLbQqqykJIJ:solomonstemple.com/modules.php%3Fname%3DNews%26fil....
Reference: While China moves to assert its power in Central Asia by growing closer to its neighboring states, the U.S. has largely focused its relationship with China on issues in the Taiwan Straits and the Korean peninsula. Russia's concerns in Chechnya will drive its approach to the region, but, with limited recourses and domestic concerns taking a priority in Putin's response, Moscow is likely to be content with the existing structure of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization, and allow China to consolidate its influence in the region. This environment provides China with an opportunity that it will not let pass to rout the U.S.'s encirclement on its western border. Washington will be reassessing the deployment of its diplomatic and military resources in Central Asia after the elections in Afghanistan; the size of the withdrawal of resources will signal how serious Washington is in controlling events in Central Asia and how concerned it is with the situation in Xinjiang. #msg-4128022

China deals seen among Australia WMC defence options 15 November 2004
MELBOURNE: Australian miner WMC Resources Ltd. would likely consider tie-ups with resource hungry Chinese companies as a defence against a $A7.4 billion takeover bid from Xstrata Plc., analysts said on Friday.
Chinese companies are showing increasing interest in pursuing offshore investments in projects across a range of commodities.
WMC Resources owns the Olympic Dam project in South Australia, the world's eighth largest copper resource and largest uranium resource, and is the third-largest producer of nickel in concentrate.
Analysts said WMC was likely to be pursuing a number of options for the company, after late last month rejecting Xstrata's $A6.35 a share offer as too low.
Olympic Dam has had some operational difficulties, but Chinese investors driven by strategic supply needs could find a joint venture or equity investment in WMC's strong resource base particularly attractive, said Perennial Growth Management partner Ken West.
"It certainly is a possibility," he said. "They are not really driven domestically by returns on capital, they are driven socially by trying to secure high-quality production."
WMC Resources Ltd. Chief Executive Andrew Michelmore will visit China next week, coinciding with an industry conference in Beijing, prompting speculation that discussions on a range of possibilities could be on the agenda.
AdvertisementAdvertisement"It is in their interests to court as many people as they can," Commonwealth Securities analyst Peter Harris said.
Olympic Dam is forecast to produce at least 220,000 tonnes of copper in 2004 and more than 4,000 tonnes of uranium, and the company is studying a $A4 billion expansion that could increase output to 500,000 tonnes of copper and 15,000 tonnes of uranium.
Analysts said joint ventures in Australian projects appeared to be the more likely path for Chinese companies, but equity investments in companies were also a possibility.
State-owned China Minmetals is currently in talks to buy 100 per cent of Canadian zinc and nickel company Noranda Inc., in a deal expected to be worth more than $5 billion.
China's top copper producers such as Jiangxi Copper Co. Ltd. have for some years been searching abroad for copper resources as domestic output lags demand.
China's Export Import Bank and the influential State Development and Reform Commission set up a lending scheme this month to aid Chinese companies buying foreign mining assets.
Michelmore will meet with the Jinchuan Group., with which WMC already has a deal to supply 120,000 tonnes of nickel-in-matte between 2005 and 2010. The two companies also have a China nickel exploration agreement.
Most analysts expect Xstrata will make another offer, but have also not ruled out competing bids from the world's largest diversified miner, BHP Billiton Ltd./Plc., or Rio Tinto Ltd/Plc.
Other potential bidders include Brazil's Companhia Vale do Rio Doce (CVRD).
WMC Resources shares rose 1.2 per cent to $A6.97 on Friday in a flat wider market.
