The Chinese military is not in Syria.
China is very, very, very involved in Africa.
Carson's statement about Africa (and yours), 100% true. Carson's statement about Syria, 100% false. The key difference here is that the Chinese MILITARY is not active in the Middle East, and that was clearly Carson's implication about Syria. China is having tremendous success in Africa and elsewhere by investing in countries that the Western world will only invest in with heavy requirements regarding political and economic reforms. The US and the rest of the western world (World Bank, etc.) see our investment in African infrastructure as a method of forcing reform and modernization on that part of the world. China views it only as a money making venture, and soft-power generator.
