Global Economic War: The creation of South Sudan is all about the oil, and keeping China from it. Hillary Clinton tells U.S. oil companies to go for it!

The creation of the new country of South Sudan was all about U.S. access to its oil.  On December 14, U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, announced that South Sudan’s oil fields were open to U.S. investment.

But she had an ominous, and hypocritical warning: “We know that it will either help your country finance its own path out of poverty, or you will fall prey to the natural resource curse, which will enrich a small elite, outside interests, corporations and countries, and leave your people hardly better off than when you started.”-Hillary Clinton, U.S. Secretary of State

It’s hypocritical because historical records show that it’s always involvement of U.S. and western European companies that destroy countries.

Even now South Sudan is fighting Sudan. Just last week the United Nations agreed to send UN Peacekeepers to patrol the border between the two countries.

Another interesting fact is that before the creation of South Sudan, China was about to invest big time in developing the oil fields there (mmmm, Libya anyone?).  China is now trying to deal with the government of the new South Sudan, and the United States is trying to beat them to the punch.
