Doesnt have anything to do with fighting with ourselves. America has never invested a lot of money into its own population and environment.
A big part of that is because we blow the money on endless wars, which China doesn't do.
Add that to their good-faith commitment to invest in, and substantially improve, their country, compared to our lack of investment in our own nation, which you mentioned.
I'm just saying, we shouldn't be surprised. This is nothing new to anyone who's been paying attention for a while.
Yeah and the wars are created by America many times, because its huge profits for the military industrial complex and also serves as a way to increase the American presence in countries with resources like oil.
The CIA is super good at what it does actually.
China’s been at war in Mali since 2012
They had a few hundred troops there as part of a UN peace-keeping force, who left with the rest of the UN troops in 2020 when the new government asked them to.
