>Why would China want to disrupt a board that hates ZOG and tells people not to join the military?
Do you even follow geo-politics? China’s actions are about securing resources, expanding influence, and countering Western containment (e.g., U.S. pivot to Asia). It’s less about Muslim countries per se and more about leveraging their geopolitical weight.
China's cozying up to Muslim-majority countries and its moves to counter the West are driven by strategic self-interest.
1. Energy and Resources: China needs oil, gas, and minerals to fuel its economy. Muslim-majority countries like Saudi Arabia, Iran, and the UAE are key suppliers. For example, Saudi Arabia alone accounts for about 17% of China’s crude oil imports (2023 data from Reuters). Strengthening ties ensures stable access.
2. Belt and Road Initiative (BRI): China’s massive infrastructure project relies on Muslim-majority countries in Central Asia, the Middle East, and Southeast Asia as critical nodes. Pakistan, for instance, hosts the $62 billion China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC). These partnerships expand China’s economic influence and secure trade routes.
3. Countering the West: China sees the U.S. and its allies as obstacles to its global ambitions. By aligning with Muslim-majority nations, many of which have historical tensions with the West (e.g., Iran), China builds a coalition to challenge Western dominance in institutions like the UN or global trade. It’s a classic balance-of-power play.
4. Weakening the West: China’s not trying to “destroy” the West but to reduce its influence. It does this by offering an alternative model, development without democratic strings that is appealing to authoritarian regimes. The Shanghai Cooperation Organization, with members like Iran and Pakistan, is a platform for this.
