This transparent pattern of aggression is well underway in West Africa's oil-rich Gulf of Guinea where the Americans demand onshore basing rights for a naval presence that would 'protect' the region against Nigeria-who shares the possession of waters of the Gulf-in its tentative effort to organize African resistance to the US intrusion. US strategic planners have marked the Gulf for deep penetration and eventual subjugation as Washington's plans for global resource domination continue unabated in the name of protecting the oil and gas reserves of the region, according to a report by a Black Agenda Radio. "In reality the Gulf needs protection from no one except the rapacious United States," the radio said. "Of course there is no enemy on the horizon to defend against; no al-Qaeda fleet with Osama Bin Laden at the helm that would necessitate such militarization of the Gulf of Guinea. What the US is really doing is telegraphing its own invasion plans for the region to grab the oil," continued the radio.
US claims such 'failed states' are incapable of providing security for precious resources in the developing countries. Readers have left 2 comments.

Do you really think you are doing your credibility justice here. Presstv, an Iranian Government funded and run press agency posting a hyperbolic anti USA article. Surprise.

Its propaganda dressed up as News.
Its opinion and not fact. Its Iran cwying because teh WOrld might not need its oil. "Deep penetration", "subjugation", "dominance" ? By the Black Agenda Radio - a right-wing organisation, surely. Certainly one with something else on its mind.

US has devised a new scheme to exploit national wealth of countries through declaring them as incompetent to 'protect' vital resources.
