Or to create a never ending cycle of dependency, which morphs into a greater system of corruption, a corruption that rids land of one’s natural resources and keeps the people in a position of disarray.

It doesn't really have anything to do with resources but the potential threat Somalia poses to the powers that be thanks to its strategic location.

This has been known for ages. I always wondered why the hell they were so hellbent on this other than wanting to loot our resources cos that point didn't 100% add up. Other than our marine resources and maybe some uranium they really don't loot all that much from Somalia, for example. Then it hit me.

It's about Israel. It's basically about making sure no wealthy, developed and strong states not subservient to the West exist around their little settled colonialist project that can then threaten its existence.

But then the looting is in there too and just generally seeing our block of nations as a threat to their global economic and political order if we're not willing to be their boys like the Khaleejis were for much of the last 30+ years.
