BREAKING: Corrupt Chinese Billionaire Spy Wants to Buy Over One Billion Pounds of American Copper
GotNews.com ^

Posted on 07/16/2017 4:35:31 PM PDT by ameribbean expat

Chinese intelligence-connected billionaire James Riady wants to purchase an enormous copper mine to corner the market for China despite being banned from the United States in 2001.

The Chinese are colonizing Africa but rapidly running out of copper deposits to mine in stable areas. “No matter where the project is, Chinese investors are coming for it,” and as China’s appetite dramatically outpaces its domestic supply and as Chinese investors chase after other countries’ resources, that includes America.

If they are running out if copper in stable areas of Africa, then perhaps they can extract from the unstable areas. In the process, they can kill all the Africans who make the areas unstable.

The Clintons' Other, Truly Bodacious Mine Boondoggle

The Riadys had bailed Clinton out as governor when he mismanaged Arkansas's Teacher's Retirement Fund. They had rescued him with cash twice on the 1992 campaign trail. ...

In a stroke of the pen, Clinton had handed the Riadys a monopoly on the world's supply of low-sulfur coal. One does not need to be a conspiracy theorist to connect the dots between Utah and Indonesia. The FBI had made the connection as well. Consider the following field notes from an FBI interview with Huang:

HUANG laughed in response to questions concerning J.RIADY's interest in Utah coal restrictions. J. RIADY's coal interests were minimal. Indonesia had significant infrastructure problems which prohibited the development of its coal resources.

Huang was lying.

Yep. Back then I didn’t understand why Bill Clinton wanted to shut down the coal industry in America. It seemed to benefit Indonesia. But it also seemed to be about more than just grifting by Billy and Clydette.

That’s my reaction, too. No attempt made by the ChiComs to use a cutout. Odd.
