| 2007-01-17 |
 (SomaliNet) South AfricaÂ’s President, Thabo Mbeki, has said that his government will use this week to reflect upon sending its troops to war ravaged Somalia. "Yesterday again I met the foreign minister of Kenya who had been sent by the East Africa region ... They are requesting we should assist with the deployment of troops in Somalia. I did say to the minister we will look at the matter this week," Mbeki said on national television. |

| #1 Jeez, just what the Somalis need : a bunch of half-trained, AIDS-infected, ANC cadres sent there to make propaganda points for Mbeki. The SADF used to be a major military on par with the Brits or Israelis, now it is one giant dumping ground for the ANC and it cannot even maintain its equipment. |
