Zimbabwe, the land of dying children
No problem, I understand your viewpoint and lookout, but I wonder exactly how much stats they see of their own country. How much is allowed and how much is 'fixed' and modified. It's possible that he might think it's exagerated, but in reality they are being lied to by their own government... -
Zimbabwe, the land of dying children
I wasn't sure what to reply to this as I def don't agree with this. I'm not a Zimbabwean and maybe, possibly my government is lying to me as well. Maybe, possibly ALL the media that I read and hear abt Zim is nonsense. Do I believe that? No. Please take note, I'm not picking on you for your... -
Zimbabwe, the land of dying children
I agree partially to this, as soon as any European country especially gets involved with this, there will be outcries, "the bastards trying to gain land and oppress Africa once again". I see how it goes in SA, sorry people but racism and cultural differences just can't be left out of this... -

Thanks man, I needed a break from all the wise-assess on this site :) -
Zimbabwe, the land of dying children
What do you see as propaganda and what as fact? I think it's an important question, it will give me an idea of how doubtful people are when reading abt Zim. One thing I don't agree with is the number of illegal immigrants, I think it's more than just 3 million that's milling around in my... -

Do We Need A Revolution!
You know a good one? Besides, people are voted in. They are there because obviously the majority likes them. So how will a revolution help? Unless it's the majority, who will now be going against the people they actually voted for in the first place. -
South Africa after Apartheid
I have some time on my hands to deal with this. Now this is what Tutu says: True, I'll give him that. Life on this side is... meaningless. You can get killed on any day at any time due to crime. Depending on where you live your chances are higher or lower. I'll agree in part to this... -
South Africa after Apartheid
Oh geez... Which soldiers? Germans or foreigners? hehe. On a side note, was in Die Beeld that on Monday there was a burglary at the police station in Nelspruit, computers were stolen from floor 3, 4 and 6. Got this from a guy that is with our dept but in Nelspruit: Nou so ruk terug het 'n ou... -
South Africa after Apartheid
I'll attend to this in full detail, going away again :mrgreen: I read parts of the article, Tutu (I hate that guy... I really can't stand him, so if anybody was hoping for a good word from me... ain't gonna happen); mentions about rudeness from government officials and then the issue of... -
South Africa after Apartheid
Well they are no use if people can now claim due to the past of the country. The ownerships that was documented by the previous government are seen as void by the new government. Land owners are forced to either sell their land or make place for squatters on their land. It's not an easy task... -
Uneven enforcement of hate speach rule
You have very valid points and I second this. -
South Africa after Apartheid
That's all good and dandy for Germany, SA is a different matter, the two can't be compared. The problem goes with cultural land. Even though the only true natives are the Khoi San, all of a sudden everybody is putting in land claims. Where there's an old grave, there's a claim. Depressing... -
South Africa after Apartheid
I haven't really checked on any new events there but i'll look around and post what I can find. It's more than just the time. I'm not sure how 'out mined' Russia's resources are but they are definitely in competition for African resources with China. Now that I don't like. The other part is... -
South Africa after Apartheid
Sorry for taking so long, sick, and now there are heaps to be done. I'll get back on the education systems in a day or two. It was on our E-tv news broadcast that day that more floods are predicted for them. I got this just now: In regards to Putin, I have mixed feelings about it. Not...
