UK Column's Insight: China in Africa and the Middle East - a Debate
Is there an honest intention to generate prosperity and help the poor nations of the earth in opposition to a system of global enslavement, or is China just another imperial power out to loot the world? In this UK Column Debate hosted by Mike Robinson and Vanessa Beeley, Isa Blumi and I debate the question.
Matthew is a senior fellow at the American University in Moscow, editor in chief of the Canadian Patriot Review and co-founder of the Rising Tide Foundation. He has written the three-volume clash of the Two Americas and four-volume untold history of Canada series.
Isa Blumi (Department of Asian and Middle Eastern Studies, Stockholm University) researches societies in the throes of social, economic, and political transformation. He compares how European imperialist projects in the Islamic world intersected with, and were thus informed by, events within those societies. His research into such processes have resulted in numerous articles and the 8 books, including Ottoman Refugees, 1878-1939: Migration in a Post-Imperial World. (Bloomsbury Academic, 2013) and Destroying Yemen: What Chaos in Arabia tells us about the World (University of California Press, 2018).

UK Column's Insight: China in Africa and the Middle East - a Debate
What is puzzling to me is if the information and analysis of the actions of China in say Angola or Ethiopia is so seemingly nefarious and sinister as Isa Blumi states why hasn't such "juicy" and damning claims been blared from the usual propaganda bullhorns in the legacy media or such think tanks as the wildly sinophobic Henry Jackson Society or the Atlantic Council? Surely those key assets of the dying Empire of Lies wouldn't miss out on such an opportunity.
Here's more information on China from a Canadian who has lived in China recently and who's ancestors are from China. Tings Chak did significant research on China's 10 year successful effort to eliminate extreme poverty in China.
Lifting over 800 million people out of poverty over the 10 years. That's over twice the population of the USA.
