South Africa's new president wants to confiscate land from white farmers
2018-02-22
[Business Insider] If you’ve been following much international news, you’ve probably heard that, after literally years of scandal, abuse, and incompetence, South Africa’s president Jacob Zuma was finally forced to resign last week.

This is a big deal for South Africa.

The country has been suffering for nearly a decade under Zuma’s corruption.

And people are certainly hoping that the new president, Cyril Ramaphosa, will represent a positive, new chapter for South Africa.

Yesterday Ramaphosa addressed the nation’s parliament in Cape Town and made clear that his priority is to heal the divisions and injustice of the past, going all the way back to the original European colonists in the 1600s taking land from the indigenous tribes.

More hate facts! Unacceptable! Next you will be telling us Africans captured and sold their neighbors as slaves.

#5  Yep, you would think Ramaphosa would have been smarter. Afterall, Southern Rhodesia is right next door and the results of Mugabe's pet project were right there...including thousands of refugees clogging up the welfare rolls in SA.

#1  .....new chapter

Yes, 'new chapter' of same old book. As at the University of Vermont, it starts slow and then whilst people sleep and do nothing, it gradually becomes the law of the land.
