Are they buying land elsewhere in the Midwest near bases??
all over!!!
IF THE GOV’T IS LETTING THIS HAPPEN WE ARE ALL DONE!
and president wussyfoot is angry…his ice cream cone is late!!!
Why is China allowed to buy any land here in our country? This is a disgrace and a terror threat from h—. They have no business over here buying anything, period. They have plenty of empty land over in their country so why not keep your communist a– out of our country. The people of this country don’t want you here at all.
my thoughts exactly, you don’t have to be a rocket scientist to figure that out!!!
why are they allowed to purchase anything!!!
This needs stopped immediately biden is allowing this it needs to be Illegal for any foreign country to buy any American soil and anyone selling to China needs imprisonment and their families deported citizenship revoked
China buying land near our military bases. I smell an EMP attack strategy.
This relentless acquisition of prime farming land by People’s Republic of China has been proceeding for decades, but much of it has been in AFRICA, some reportedly even in the neighborhood of the Sahara Desert.
Well, there are historic reasons to expect the rains to return in our lifetimes to the Sahara and restore it to the monumental fertility that scientists tell us characterized the region until about 5,000 years ago, when a branch of the NILE flowed from west – near the “Richat Structure”, the so-called Eye of Africa, where remarkable relics and fossils are found – to east, across lush savannas and forests with herds of gazelle, zebra, bison, and enormous lakes.
• Believe it or else, world climate goes through cycles, and it seems some of our most productive lands NOW may soon become parched or frozen, while we see the ATACAMA desert and Saudi Arabia BOTH covered with flowers and grass, for the last TWO YEARS. Check it out.
That maybe will come to pass, but China really expects to be able to farm, harvest, truck the harvest to African ports, and send loaded ships across the ocean back to feed its population in Mainland China. Do you suppose they have not considered how they will defend the food along the way?
If they are planning to grow food for themselves on US soil, do you suppose for an instant they will be concerned about whether US residents are being fed?
Last, Do you honestly believe COMMUNIST CHINA is buying prime U.S. farmland without our government being fully aware?
If so, I have some Prime waterfront property in Arizona I will sell you for cheap.
The Chink bastards hate us and want to subvert us and they ain’t got no place on American soil. Kick ’em back to the Yangtze!
Agree! They should NOT be allowed to buy anything in OUR country! And traitor Gates should not be allowed to own all the land he has sneakily purchased using dummy companies to do it! This is subversion! The Chinese have been buying food production companies as well, for instance Smithfield pork production companies. This must be stopped, and any state allowing it should be sued! If it continues, China and Gates will own our country!
