HARARE, Zimbabwe — French energy giant TotalEnergies has IGNORED a BLOOD-SOAKED HISTORY to fire up its $20 billion gas project in Mozambique, a venture built on LAND STOLEN FROM WAR ZONES. The company announced a “full restart” just years after a brutal insurgency that SLAUGHTERED THOUSANDS and displaced over a million people was contained by foreign troops, raising the chilling question: is this economic development or a CORPORATE RESETTLEMENT of a genocide zone for PROFIT?
With Rwandan soldiers STILL standing guard, CEO Patrick Pouyanné declared “the force majeure is over,” as if the mass graves and shattered communities were merely a temporary administrative hurdle. President Daniel Chapo, standing beside him, brazenly claimed the project would shift the “prejudice” that Cabo Delgado is “all about terrorism.” This is a STAGGERING attempt to ERASE a humanitarian catastrophe with promises of jobs and gas money.
Critics are horrified, calling this the ULTIMATE CORPORATE COMEBACK—turning a region where children witnessed beheadings into an industrial energy hub. The project promises billions for the government and foreign investors, but for the displaced, it symbolizes a FINAL, PROFIT-DRIVEN conquest of their homeland. TotalEnergies pledges “prosperity” and “long-term peace,” but this peace is enforced by foreign guns and purchased with the silence of the traumatized.
This is the grim new face of resource extraction: where corporations don’t just exploit land, they CAPITALIZE on its pacification, proving that no tragedy is too deep if the price of gas is right. The drilling rigs are now monuments to what the world is willing to forget.
