Obama jets off to legitimize South Africa's Zimbabwifying regime
American Thinker ^ | 04/23/2018 | Monica Showalter

Posted on 04/23/2018 8:26:01 AM PDT by SeekAndFind

South Africa is busy Zimbabwifying itself, ready to expropriate white-owned farms without compensation. At this point, it should be a pariah state. But in goes President Obama, likely to egg them on.

The gushy New York Times piece about it pretty well calls Obama's planned trip to play community organizer abroad in South Africa a wonderful thing.

He’s been photographed kite-surfing with Richard Branson off Necker Island, relaxing on David Geffen’s yacht in French Polynesia with Bruce Springsteen and Oprah Winfrey, river-rafting with his family in Bali and posing with a celebrity chef in Tuscany.

To those who have paid only casual attention to former President Barack Obama’s foreign travels since he left the White House in January 2017, it can seem as if Mr. Obama has been on an extended vacation of the kind only the very rich can afford.

But the former president has also met quietly with groups of young people in New Zealand, Brazil, Indonesia and Singapore, as well as paying calls on foreign leaders, including Xi Jinping of China, Emmanuel Macron of France, Justin Trudeau of Canada and Malcolm Turnbull of Australia.

Now, Mr. Obama is inaugurating his most significant international project as an ex-president, with an announcement on Monday that the Obama Foundation plans to convene 200 young people this July in Johannesburg for five days of meetings, workshops and technical training.

That would be South Africa, the same South Africa that got itself in the news for voting to amend its constitution to expropriate productive white-owned farms without compensation, just as Zimbabwe did, creating what will  become an impoverished hellhole. A whiff of the local sentiment can be read in this local lunatic-leftist's essay printed in Newsweek here.

South Africa, is by far the wealthiest nation in sub saharan Africa.... I am glad I visited it when I did.. because it will be a dump by the end of the next decade or two.

Retribution mindset now rules the day in its politics..... I don’t think it will fall to Zimbabwe levels, but it sure as hell will likely follow the same path down.

South Africa, is by far the wealthiest nation in sub saharan Africa.

Which is why they've been inundated with refugees from the rest of the continent, which has led to widespread riots. Of course the press doesn't want to report on this, since it would ruin the façade of black racial solidarity.

Not exactly sure what rioting you are referring to... Yes South Africa attracts a lot of foreigners to work, but the majority are legally working in various parts of the south african economy, especially those from Zimbabwe, which has gone from Breadbasket of Africa, to a fustercluck beyond all repair under Mugabe. Basically in Zimbabwe, there are no jobs, only jobs are government ones, and most of those pay dirt.. so most search elsewhere for work.

Its really an amazing thing to see, people who are barely scraping by by an sort of western standards, facetime with their families nightly on insanely modern technology... because they work 100s of miles away in a different country just to provide for them... and visit home ever 2 weeks or so for a few days.

The dichotomy is truly amazing to behold.

South Africa has is problems, even before this taking the farms from whites stuff, but its not a state full of riots and ethnic unrest. Sadly its leaders are definitely falling back on Africa’s tribal and ethnic corruptions that have kept the continent down since the colonists left, but its not a place with routine large scale rioting.... at least not yet.

Once the farms are not producing and people are starving and tourist stop coming, there will be indeed be rioting the likes of which that nation hasn’t seen in a long long time..... But that will take a while to manifest.

"...the Obama Foundation plans to convene 200 young people anarchists this July in Johannesburg for five days of meetings riots, workshops bomb assembly and technical terrorist training."

Fixed it.

One event over a year ago does NOT make a country full of riots... seriously, I can find more examples of Rioting in the US. South Africa has its problems, but its not a country full of routine rioting.
