The Africab elites...currently strongly supported by blac middle classes everywhere...are at it again: SELLING OUT THEIR OWN PEOPLE, THEIR OWN HOME AND CONTINENT!

isnt it sweet! just look at them in their race to set the stage for the elimination of their own. there is not one of them at the moment...not one..from mandella to musaveni.... with a shred of nationalism to them, who wish to see African nations develop great and powerful, capable fo meeting the needs of the people and defending african interests in the world.

the blac elites and middle classes are all greedy to an astonishing extent.... an extent that is shortsighted that makes one wonders if the past 400 years of african experience at he hands of europe is an illusion of some sort, that it never occured... and so it does not inform elite african opinion. they are therefore free to repeat the situation inviting even more complete exploitation that the colonialism recently past?

I still cant belive what I see taking place in Africa faciliated by the blac elites! so this is what Cuba sent its armies of proud young Cuban men to fight and die for! this is the reward for the Russians who contributed the military transports to get the cuban armies there, to arm and fit them out to fight to save southern africa fro the Boers.

southern African rewards this massive westindian sacrifice with Mandellas betrayal, and the execdrable Tutu with his truth/reconciiation commission that let white mass murders of blac people go, while arresting and jailing Winnie Mandella, the only true nationalist and and honest african in the bunch.. a mighty woman she, a MATRIARCH.

now southern africa throws up the greatest insult of all...the leadership of Jacob Zuma, the most ridiculous of them all, a fat slob of a leader, selling africa out with a haste and speed as if he is running out of time

simply disgusting, very serious indeed but comic tuh rass! I have tuh laff! and the harder I laff the better I feel.

will the african people rise up and put an end to this?

interesting!
