It certainly feels the right time for the Bolivian navy to come to the aid of little old China ;-)
Dec 08th, 2011 - 11:26 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Bolivia's main exports of tin, gold, jewelry, wood, soya, oil & gas - traded mostly to adjacent countries and the US - look like being the quid pro quo.
Arms - IN; exports that would otherwise go to the US - OUT.
Arm the continent, country by country; and at the same time destabilise and participate in the reduction of the remaining US continental influence.
China is pushing at an open door.
Doormen, bouncers, gate-keepers, locks & bolts - I hope they know what they are doing.
I saw the film Enemy at the Gate, and well over a million died trying to keep that particular door closed. How much worse if you hold the door wide open?
Arms industries need to keep countries at each other's throats:
attrition - re-armament - attrition - re-armanent -
and South America really does not need this deal.
