There is currently a congress ongoing that is pretty much only covered by the French National media in the northern hemisphere and along trouble is rising between Algeria and France on school books views on history.
The aftermath of colonisation is still biting all and everyone in range.
In the movie Blood Diamonds a local sais that he is happy that they don't have oil in the region and I wondered, if he lost his glasses considering the civil war environment he dropped that one and I am sure he does not know about cobalt and battery cars, yet.
So, Africa is a mess. Good news is that it is also quite chaotic. The worst of all crimes against humanity, we Europeans managed to put on and not stop in time, happend in a time of most hierarchic structures and clear order in place.
Africa has today 32 Million displaced people. That means that 32 Million people managed to go on the run instead of becoming small arm victims, while just a few decades ago, even so industrial scale mobilisation had reshaped society, 6 Million humans turned victim staying at home having no place to run to facing small arms and finally gas chambers.
Africa is not the black continent. Africa is the most diverse contient on earth. It is in the north Arabic, Black in the centre and in the south quite mixed between European, Indian origin and black African humans all over belonging to several different people, I cannot count like stars from my garden. It is as close as it gets to the Wild Wild West that once made America the land of the free, while today everybody is on a credit line.
While everybody must only see poverty and trouble, I see opportunities I most unfortunately can not use when I watch reports on Africa. Wall Street slang is all about the bang for a Dollar and I well know how much a Dollar can move in an area where you can live by a Dollar a day.
Check your bank statement. Income minus rest divided by 30 and you understand what you need all together by day in this developed world and than take that dollar and stretch it out over a day.
"Dont spent it in one go" the rich man said giving the homeless a Dollar "Thank you. I won't. A meal I get for free at the shelter and a Chubba Chubs is no Dollar. Have a nice day."
Those that envision a dysantrop society in Europe are also the enemy of mother Africa, the place the homo sapiens we all are, was first found.
Slave Farmers that wan't their farms back are working hard on cutting down on South African progress, drug Kartells that use West Africa as a hub to their European markets already managed to get their foot down successfully in Nigeria are now even exporting small boat coast line piracy from Somalia to the Nigerian river delta and will most likely use Pre-runner called off-road race trucks well tested on Mexican soil to cross the Sahara connecting to smuggler gangs based in Marrocco crossing to Spain on light speed boats, mining companies that beside corruption also use SS style massacres against civilians that mind becoming work slaves without any union or even basic human rights like work safety and social insurances or any share of the prosperity in their ansisters soil.
All these organised groups will further horizontally connect and integrate sharing the same interest of profit over people using warriors that believe in glory by war and conflict, while our western society is stuck in bigger and faster rising structural problems of our system, giving them lethal time to establish vertical structures digging into African societies creating slaves again.
In the same way I and others like me, neither can flourish in the western society nor even become soldiers as Legionairs, won't be given any chance to take on, supported by those very nations that put us down and into outsider positions, those that are even worse than ignorant politicians or bad mouthing neighbours: Bad Guys....in arms, using free markets too sell off what we captured, like gear, guns and equipment, collecting head money for their leaders and having a life that makes sense over saving for shit we don't need, ever, sucking up to the authority in charge just to have some peace.
Fuck the free world? Fuck the peace.
Give me a good reason and I start a war.
