That's not funny... that's sick.

Wish I'd said it...

#5 This from the Spectator makes an interesting read.
"More than 1,000 South African farmers have been killed since the end of apartheid: Andrew Kenny stares into the heart of darkness."

This is why the South African government supports and applauds Robert Mugabe in Zimbabwe.

#6 Another from Andrew Kwnny might help understand Mbeki. For years nobody questioned the common wisdom and we are now questioning reality.

The white liberals who opposed apartheid are despised; the blacks who supported it are eulogised. Andrew Kenny on the oppressive humbug of the ANC.

"Now the ANC government at its highest level has honoured the supreme black stooge of apartheid. It is as if the liberated Norwegian government had honoured Quisling as a hero of the people."

#7 Mr Mbeki accused Britain, the United Nations and the European Union of failing to honour commitments to help finance the redistribution of farms in Zimbabwe. I guess the blood of the white farmers is on the hands of the world community for failing to fork out the promised protection money.

I am struck by the fact that investment in China actually seems logically superior to investment in Africa of many countries in South America.

#8 Mr Mbeki made no mention of Mr Mugabe's human rights record in the letter on the ANC website.

Of course not. If he did, he'd find himself booted out of his job by the rest of the ANC.
