Ever since the crackdown on Tibetan protesters, the People’s Republic of China has gotten nothing but bad PR. And it continues after it was revealed that the Chinese are shipping guns and ammo to the faltering Mugabe regime in Zimbabwe. Story fr …….

I’m not surprised – South Africa is on the same course, just a few years behind.

What’s the difference between Mugabe and Mbeki?

Twenty years.

They are as children.

And that is the reason why the Boers separated them from the main-stream – not skin colour alone.

SA, ruled by whites, used to be an economic jewel. Now it’s rapidly degrading into another African hellhole once the black Africans get power.

Its already the most crime ridden country in the world bar none. Its worse than many war zones.

I wonder though if black Africans who were not Communist ruled SA would be the situation be better?

I hope there is a special place in hell for Mugabe and his enablers.

There is. And that includes Tutu who is a leading proponent of BLT from whitey, except when it is black on black, then it is “Move along, nothing here to see that we can’t handle”.

They are as children. James Watson was right. Schemes to help Africa will never succeed as long as we continue to ignore basic demographic facts.

In fact, they claimed that releasing the results would release dangerous forces in Zimbabwe.

Yeah, such as a hangman’s noose with Mugabe’s name on it.

It’s sad, but Mbeki seems to be doing a lot of damage to democracy in South Africa, too. His administration has been bizarre at times, and his potential successor is even weirder.

He may find himself further isolated in southern Africa, putting more pressure on him to leave Zimbabwe and find a retirement plan.

Anyone know if he has a realtor in switzerland yet?

when will Nelson Mandela weigh in on this?

Blame Bush, send cash…….Haven’t heard that yet so he must be silent.

Mandela like his cousins in the USA only seem to get creative when Whites are involved. As long as one Black is killing the other, all is well. Happy Time. Send cash!!!

Tough call.

How far has South Africa fallen, to be so crime-ridden as it is, have its leadership supporting this atrocity, and getting ready to march down the same path to oblivion.

Everything that could be said, has been said, by people smarter, better educated, and much more eloquent then myself.

It is so obvious, and so predictable what will happen. The only question is how bad will it get before it’s over.

The comment from the SA President is no surprise. SA just adopted a land-seizure program like Mugabe’s, and this boob likely would love to run SA the way Mugabe runs Zimbabwe, as a personal play-pen, for life.

De-colonization may not have been such a great solution, except in the eyes of those humanitarians who care less about humans and more about their self-approval ratings.

How would most people describe a nation with 150,000% inflation, massive unemployment, a collapsed agricultural system, and an election for which the ruling government refuses to release the results?

The United States? Oh. Sorry. Forgot to take off my leftist glasses. I can see the light! Wait no, that’s just Obama.

This does seem like a perfect case for The Elders to mediate doesn’t it? Mandela, Carter, Tutu, and Annan. They could put things right in a flash if they weren’t all tied up helping Hamas succeed in the struggle for peace with Israel and democracy in Gaza. You just can’t beat senile corrupt Marxism as a credential for constructive assistance.

I dunno.

The U.S.A. in November, 2012 if Hillary gets elected in November, 2008?

Just take all the white farmers’ land, and everything will be fine.

remain calm…all is well…
