Africa: America's Next Oil Target (1/5)
As world oil reserves decline, the US and other world powers are competing for African oil. US energy and foreign policies have now merged: they militarize choke points and oil-producing countries that can be loyal to the US. Currently [2005], 14% of US oil comes from Africa, while experts predict that America's own national oil supply will run out in eight years. Thus securing an energy supply is a top strategic priority in an oil-hungry world, which explains the sudden interest from America, Europe, China and Japan for Africa. Under the guise of the wars against 'terror' and 'poverty' the US is setting up military bases in West Africa and planning for a possible conflict with Europe and China.

China in Africa - Angola
Part 2 in the series.
From 1961 to 1974 under Portuguese colonial rule and then from independence in 1975 to 2002, Angola experienced great internal turmoil as UNITA, the MPLA, the Portuguese military, the FNLA, the South Africa military, the Cubans, the Soviets and East Germans all participated in first, a war of independence, then a war for Cold War ideological dominance in the country.
By 2002 the country was in complete ruins, it ranked near the bottom of the United Nations Human Development index. There was no economy to speak of. Although the country was rich in diamonds and oil, these resources had been used to finance the war.
Millions of people had been internally displaced. There was next to no foreign investment.
In stepped China.

China in Africa
Part 1 in the series.
China's (and India's) growing appetite for natural resources has helped trigger a worldwide commodity price boom. Many of Africa's natural resource-based economies have benefited tremendously from the recent rise in commodity prices.

Oil Business Booming in South Africa
Record prices for petroleum are fueling a boom in Africa's oil industries. They now provide nearly one-third of the oil imported by the developed world and China. The boom has also spread to industries in non-oil exporting countries. One of these is South Africa, as we hear in this report from Correspondent Scott Bobb in Capetown
