Gee, wonder who is in charge?

America soon lost interest

Conclusion: the problems of South Africa are due to white people and their racism.

Name me one country in Africa ... just one, that is doing well. I’ll wait.

8th largest economy turned into an Obamanation..... our future is clear....

And yet Nelson Mandela is regarded as a hero. There are parallels between South Africa and another country, the name of which escapes me for the moment...

Perhaps a sweeping change in governance can make things better.

That, or a flock of good fairies sprinkling peace dust all over the countryside. They're equally likely.

They’ll still be “struggling” a hundred years from now.

Welcome ot the reality of this mess. Dertroit is a mess and so is Chicago and Philadelphia. Thug culture and no way to fix it wihtout a total military intervention. In the states this is what happens from years of liberalism.

“Democracy, in and of itself, is no solution,” he told World Net Daily recently. “What is important is checks and balances, separation of powers, which has virtually vanished. We now have basically the executive doing everything – writing the law and adjudicating ... And we don’t have real law ... we have discretionary power, which is the main reason why we have this corruption.”

In other words, Africa has reverted back to pre-colonial tribal status of running around killing and enslaving each other, a nature that the colonialist farmers managed to curb and curtail.

I remember watching the World Cup final (on television) when it was in South Africa. One of the announcers got so emotional by the end of the game that he pronounce that South Africa had become a “First World” nation. This was all the result of having hosted a soccer tournament.

I guess Brazil will be invited to join the G7 at the completion of next month’s World Cup? /sarc

South Africa, on the other hand, transformed from an imperfect-but-stable society into the most dangerous place on the planet.

Gee the same thing happen to Rhodesia...

Yeah but District 9 was a GREAT movie.

One thing Cline left out was South Africa’s tremendous illegal alien invasion before 1994. They were flooded with people from other African countries trying to get into the white run country and achieve a higher living standard.

If the Afican National Communists can just drive out the white debbils and Asian debbils Mandelaland will be a paradise :(.

imperfect-but-stable society...NEVER, NEVER unless you count a day or two. SA was a productive vibrant country until the tribes took over. I HOPE these figures that are cited, exterminate the ruling “ people” so the civilized world can take over. And Kerry says apartheid is a bad thing. Shheeesh.
