Hey what do you think communism is if not close to slavery? As long as it’s labeled correctly all is good.

South Africa could face “consequences” from the international community after undertaking military drills with Russia over the one-year anniversary of the war in Ukraine, opposition leaders in the country believe. Russian warships have spent the past 10 days week in South African waters undergoing navy exercises including live ammunitions on targets in a naval exercise dubbed Mosi II.

But opposition leaders feared it signals a worrying embrace of Russia. The exercise also includes Chinese naval ships and more than 350 members of the South African armed forces. “We are concerned mainly that the South Africa government has welcomed Russian military aggression into the previously peaceful waters of the Southern Ocean,” said in a statement issued jointly by The Green Connection, Extinction Rebellion Cape Town, Kai Tikquoa Conservancy and the Ukrainian Association of South Africa.

“This not only sends a signal of South African alignment with the aggressor that violates the UN Charter, but also creates a risk for further confrontation between South Africa and its other trading partners.”

Dr Leaza Jernberg, an independent analyst and African foreign policy expert, argued that not everyone in South Africa is unhappy with the arrival of Russian warships, telling i how former President Zuma’s major foreign policy achievement was joining the BRICS grouping which includes Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa. There is a “more pro-Russian side around Zuma [and that] his supporters are still in positions of power,” she said.

Hasn’t Bill Gates been doing a lot of “charity work” there?

It must be working as he intended...

You wrote all of that for what reason?

Because the country has a relationship with Russia and China.

That place has been going down hill since Jimmy Carter for Mandela release

I love this country with a passion, but I cannot live here anymore. I can no longer live slung about with panic buttons and gear locks. I am tired of driving with my car windows closed and the doors locked, tired of being afraid of stopping at red lights. I am tired of being constantly on the alert, having that sudden frisson of fear at the sight of a shadow by the gate, of a group of youths approaching-although nine times out of 10 they are innocent of harmful intent. Such is the suspicion that dogs us all.

Sorry, I missed it. Which is the American city where you live?

They decided to vote themselves money instead of working for it. Same path the USA is on. Sloth.

Look at America. What do you see? “See what you see”.
America is under siege. A regime has taken over.

The government and the police have almost disappeared, the energy grid has imploded, half of the people in the country are out of work and the nation’s infrastructure has crumbled.

The number of people in South Africa relying on government grants and welfare is about to exceed the number of working people paying taxes. In the absence of a properly funded and staffed police force in many parts of the country, looting and violence have become commonplace.

Time to take away farm land from whites and give it to black South Africans - that's worked so well in the past.

Yes - the same can be said of many American cities. We know several folks that loved living in Seattle but have moved to the suburbs where I live because of the crime.

Once I retire we will be moving out of this liberal area to a conservative state.
