The Vehicle Roles and the Dogs Bark

I have been trying to visualise the political landscape in South Africa without the presence of ANC, and I came up with a shocking discovery….The other parties (DA and COPE) would have nothing to provide that country, as there will be nothing to moan about, instead of working.

The South African Parties (COPE AND DA) are wasting huge amount of money and efforts on the war on ANC and Zuma rather than providing any tangible or trustworthy competition and alternatives….they are politically bankrupt to the extent they can only launch hatred campaigns.

I was observing the South African media for past 2 days with astoundment to the level of legal and constitutional ignorance of most of the presenters and most of their guests, where everyone says “but Zuma should answer to those charges”….since when the onus is on the accused to prove, it is the prosecutor that has to prove beyond reasonable doubt (in criminal cases) and by balance of possibilities in civil case…..I repeat; if it is criminal charges it has to be proven beyond reasonable doubt….where is this in the Zuma case?….more so the prosecutor is saying I cannot win because I cannot achieve conviction with ” beyond reasonable doubt”; yet everyone goes to Zuma to ask him to still defend himself…..

Also I support the fact that the local media is biased against Zuma, any blind person can see it where some channels are just pouring hatred…..Please note that it is an election year and Parties have to draw up better plans to convince the voters they are the best and can do for the masses better than Zuma…..

When a party or person is politically bankrupt, it or he can do nothing except barking at successful passers….

Wake up COPE and DA, I am sure you can do better than that;l otherwise appear busy….

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, Mandela….

The last respectable standing man Madiba, or Mr. Mandela is celebrating his 90th birthday this week. I wish him a happy many returns.

Mandela has announced 2 years ago his official retirement from politics, yet he is and shall always continue to be the father of the African Continent and South Africa…..he is the lasting symbol of the old good days of morals, ideology, and African dreams……

Africa may have let you down but your birthday may inspire the hopeless African youth that there could be a better tomorrow if the believed in Africa, their continent and in their identity…..the younger African leaders may always looked around for easy allies to global recognition, but Madiba proved that to change people beliefs and nations destinies can only happen if one start by believing in oneself and ones dreams…..recognition starts from within.

Mr. Madiba on your birthday I salute you as a leader of all the past and future leaders…..

Happy Birthday!!!

What are we having now!!!

I am watching with dismay all what is happening in the world now….since the questioned electio of Mr. Bush Jr. the world is no more the same….it is an old piece of news what I am arguing here, but I am not very optimistic about the election of Obama….it is unprecedented that 80% whites elects the black boy of Kenya to be the president of the strongest country in the world, I am yet to see that, as my wondering mind goes into rampage. The bush family, its supporters and benefactors have been always in control of the main stream media, which polished Obama to the extreme….it is like feeding and growing a lamb before slaughtering him….Honestly I am very pessimistic…I hope this election process will not end up with the republicans on top of the American institutions again; after cooking the lamb over the election plate…..anyway, there is always tomorrow to see.

Sometimes I asked myself what would have come upon the world if Algore has become the president of the USA, for sure more winds of peace would have blown all over the world, due to the healthy environment that he would have persuade…anyway …. it is a ll a bunch of weighed possibilities that is how the world is formed…

When you go in any street in Africa now they have a big dreams about Obama, some which nears the myth of Robin Hood….I fail to agree….the African Americans struggled for generations to bring a black person to the administration, and when they succeeded they ended with Ms Rice!!!! what a nightmare …..

Another issue that suddenly came on the international scene, it the issue of Zimbabwe… and uncle Bob fierce resistance to international interference in his internal issues and the challenge to country sovereignty….

I am surprised how the main stream media always fails to mention how the crisis started during the early nineties , when UK failed to honour its treaty and agreement with Zimbabwe to compensate the little country, and using the gay rights as a reason for evasions of its responsibilities….

However a person that looks deeper in the current Zim crisis, would also question the role of the South African main stream media (mainly controlled by European descents). As if this crisis and the torment that Zim is enduring to just to frighten the neighboring reluctant South Africa away from the land reform initiatives….

Zim has no Oil, no strategic location; it has no challenging military power, it has nothing rather limited fertile soil mainly controlled by white and some mining activities, yet it shares borders and history with America’s African Jewel; South Africa!!…..thus the more international “diplomatic” Terror is focused on ZIM it would horify fragile, yet ambitious, South Africa. it would for sure delay transformation of mining industry and land reforms which are the main sources of income to the country and mainly controlled by the white minority of 7% percent of the population….I just remembered that the main stream media also has also conveniently forget to mention that the whole wealth of Zim was concentrated in the hands of 1% of the population before the start of the Crisis…how can 1% of the population control more than 90% of the wealth of a nation and yet they feel safe….especially when it is also coupled with ethnic major differences?!!!!!.

Anyhow…days are yet to deliver…
