Wouldn’t this put the South Africans in a good position to gauge their strengths and weaknesses? Perhaps SA is our alter ego in this deal.

This is some of that International Respect™ we got back when Joe stole the election.

Nobody wants to be ruled by Sodom and Gomorrah.

The leftist nutjobs infesting our government have forgotten that America has an easier time leading the world when the world looked up to them. Now that America is pervert central the rest of the world is asking “WTF?” and looking for alternatives.

"The article states that they ARE throwing in with China, as China is part of the exercise."

It looks like the Ukraine War is eroding America's leadership in world affairs. Biden is cocking this thing up like everything else he touches.

This is what happens in every African nation when white folks are completely removed from the hall of governance . Corruption and Communist influence quickly seep in and change everything . But that’s what black Africans seem to want ; total black governance, at whatever cost . Time will tell.

It was just a place Obama used for photo ops.

This "photo-op" didn't turn out so well.

“It looks like the Ukraine War is eroding America’s leadership in world affairs. Biden is cocking this thing up like everything else he touches.”

Actually, it began in earnest in 2009 with Obama. (Yeah, Biden was VP, but he was just a potted plant in the Obama administration: Intentionally knee-capping the United States was all Obama.)

“Started with Bush’s lies regarding the Iraq War.”

Hell, we can also say it started with Bill Clinton, who was not taken seriously by anyone.

Can somebody show me where and how South Africa is an ally of the US?

And “parasitic receiver of foreign aid” doesn’t count.

Demento Joe is already losing Saudi Arabia and Turkey. If SA goes it's settled, he's the worst Western leader stooge in history.

Allies come and allies go. Or are driven away.

Mandela’s Communist legacy is coming to fruition. A blind man could have seen this coming.

“”Why should the UN Bristle - do they Bristle when we have Joint Drills with Nations? or put Military Bases throughout the World? “”

Nice defense of Red China Russia and S. Africa, and put-down of America.

I never expected to see such a thing on FR, but this kind of anti-Americanism is being sprinkled around here recently.
