He says we must stop the racial polarisation of this country - I agree, and the ANC must do the same.
Empty rhetoric doesn't cut it. People are watching their actions, not just listening to their words.
Calling on an end to corruption while they practice corruption,
Calling on people to move forward when they cling so desperately to their past...
One rule for the ANC and another for everyone else doesn't cut it, especially as they are (as they love to say) the "ruling" party. They are setting the standard, and the chickens have come home to roost.

The ANC never cease to amaze me.
The comment that no foul play is suspected in ET's murder. How the F#%#K to you get to that statement?
They have tacitly condoned the murder should it be related to a wage dispute. They have commenetd that it appears that a wage dispute is the reason, without condoning it they have effectively said that such cause gives a reason for the MURDER. Certainly an excellent summary of civilized beings and uncivilized and the difference between these two entities.
The leader of the youth league, Julius Malema, on being interviewed claiming he knows nothing because he is out of the country. This can be read in a number of ways 1) he is lying(my view) 2) He is not really bothered in what is going on his country purely because he is away 3) By not commenting he has once again tacitly condoned the action. It seems he was doing everything in his power not to smile at the news 4) His support staff do a cr$%p job as they do not keep him informed (ha ha ha)
A further sign of idiocy or not giving a damn is the attitude of ANC and hence the leadership of the country in continuing to support the "Kill the boer" song, and this is my view prior to the demis eof ET -
Even if the song is a struggle song, and I am not knowledgable on such matters to determine if it is or is not - there is no need to sing it as the meaning to others is relative to the actual words immaterial of it's intentions or origins. Such songs are the equivalent of the old flag, street names etc, etc - the orgins and meaning attached to such things are different from each viewpoint. the flying of the old flag is a definitive action at inciting anger. So is singing the song.
Furthermore, government acknowledges that there are large amounts of our population that are emotionally and intellectually imature, granted due to past practices, to acknowledge the intentions or history and meaning of such songs and would therefore take it had face value. This intelligence level is acceded to in many pieces of legisaltion, particulalry in the New Consumer Protection Act. Thus the government acknowledges that a large portion of the people in the country can not, as yet, grasp basic day to day activities and justifiably so need protection. Hence, there can surely be no doubt that the words kill the Farmer, Kill the boer or any other such utterance can only be interpreted at face value. Backed up with support by leadership, well need I say more.
Of particular worry is that a large amount of these issues, that the leadership supports, is coming from the youth leader, the most impressionable people to influence.
Will the AWB resurrect itself and take some action? If they do not one can consider them dead and buried and by the same token there can never be a statement that there is a right wing element.

something else i ask myself is why do you still see mk soliders dressed in trditional outfits at anc rallys...i thought we have moved forward in this country.
found this in wikipedia...interesting
In early 2010, Malema urged ANC Youth League members to join the South African National Defence Force, and said that there were plans for the Youth League leadership to join the reservist programme[1].
In February 2010 Malema came under fire for alleged intervening in government tenders in the Limpopo province; see below. Malema is currently a director in a number of companies that was awarded these tenders. Malema denies these allegations, but currently he is still listed as a director in all these companies [24]. He is especially under fire for his lavish lifestyle, where he drives a number of expensive cars, and lives in a expensive house in Sandton [25]. When questioned about his lavish lifestyle, he blames the allegations on racism in South Africa, and that white people do not want to see black people succeed in SA [26]. When asked about his Mercedes Benz C63 AMG, he says "its nothing compared to what white kids drive on Sundays

i would like an opitmist to give me their views on the future of this country with some concrete evidence...bcause after all the research i did this weekend i can honestly tell you i am a little better informed about my future than i was last thursday...i am going this morning to apply for my british passport like the the other 90 000 who must have done their research already....i need to stop being so selfish by wanting to stay here and think of the rest of my family...what future do they have here especially my daughter.
this country needs more educated people to make it work as long as the uneducted are being used for votes...there is no hope for this country.
now i can also blame the old goverment for their mess...if all the people in this country were educated i believe there would be hope for a great future
pay for a fire engine and staff to put out your fire...what next...toll on internet traffic
i look forward to the responses...
