A summary of my thoughts about s. Africa is based on my memory of reporting at the time; The Brits when leaving handed the reins of control to the surviving Boers and remaining English who in fact managed to keep the trains running on time. Then began the incessant reiteration of apartheid in the papers, apartheid on the telly news...APARTHEID, APARTHEID, APARTHEID, until they gave up, handed the country back to the bush and here we are exactly where anyone with a whiff of knowledge of history knew we would be.
From what little readings I've done, as relates to Africa in particular and South America more generally - the CCP strategy of entrapping nations is their mo. It is curious that leaderships don't recognize the traps and avoid them.
I am relieved to note we seem to have finally noticed the SA Issues and are taking potentially beneficial action. One hopes these same strategies in Africa will be helpful for both ourselves and Africa.
These people are nothing more than grifters. They care more about lining their pockets than they do the country they are running which leads to the crime against white people. Those who have nothing use violence against the farmers and it’s allowed to happen under the guise of equality but really it’s because their leaders are so concerned about themselves they allow the crime against the farmers so they can keep getting elected. It’s obvious to see.
Thank you for informing us so fully about all this. Just one small peeve. When using an acronym, it's standard to introduce it before first usage by its full name, immediately followed by the acronym in parentheses. Dolts like me have to look up ANC on acronymfinder.com to see that it stands for the African National Congress. That's a very small peeve, but I had to get it off my chest.
As editor, I should have caught this. Sorry. Justine is from SA, so all of these acronyms are common lingo for her. I caught most of them, but missed the big one. My bad.
I thought this was explained in the first part of this article. In any case, the context of South Africa should make the use of "ANC" clear enough. It is, however, a substantial history lesson for anyone who has not been following developments there over the years.
Here's a take on the National Security Strategy on Africa, point 2, "Foreign aid to African governments does not yield any benefits for the US and all aid will be reconsidered."
A couple of weeks ago I heard an interview on al Jazeera of a radical South African leftist regarding the reduction of US aid to African nations. By asking leading questions, the interviewer clearly wanted the interviewee to condemn the stoppage of such aid as harming recipient nations. Interestingly, she strongly condemned such aid as 'another colonialist program' that does not benefit the recipients. I agree with the radical! I believe there is data to indicate foreign aid is ultimately harmful to the donee nations it is meant to assist.
Perhaps one can see this as a 'strange bedfellows' issue: Stopping foreign aid may be tough love, but is the better long-term strategy for both the USA and donee clients.
My neighbor's family lives in Tehran and they reported that the initially peaceful protest against the inflation of their money turned into a revolt. The Iranian people are aware that the economical/financial manipulation by the global, financial elites, who weaponize the dollar (this is the primary reason for the creation of BRICK btw.) caused a hyper inflation in Iran and hoped it would start a revolt against the Iranian government. The peaceful protest turned into a riot within hours, where armed forces ( foreign invaders and activated Iranian opposition "cells" along CIA and Mossad intelligence agents started shooting the police and into the civilian crowd. Also, they proceeded to burn mosques and hospitals among other buildings and some cars on the street. But the attack against mosques and hospitals is the proof that the deeply religious Iranians would never do such a self destructive behavior.
I'm sorry to break the official propaganda here, but the truth is needed to be told to the Americans, who are the most isolated and propagandized people of the globe. This war against Iran is provoked by the global Zionist forces (the same who inflicted two world wars on Europe) who are "hosted" by United States and some of the Western European nations. Under no circumstances attack against countries that are against the global financial hegemony of the western elites, or rather nations who try to protect themselves against the MAFIA style ruling of the US governed that strictly represent only the financial interest of the global elites, who in tern utilize the power of the US army to control and defend the elites' economical hegemony. None of the powerful nations, especially the US has the moral authority to murder citizens of other nations unless doing so in self-defense. We need cooperation, including healthy competition rather than beating up the weakest and play out the survival of the " fittest" falsehood.
We, the people, have paid and will be paying the price for the out of control global elites' behavior who think that they have the biggest "guns" to do whatever they want to do against the rest of the world.
My grandfather in Hungary was taken at gunpoint to fight in the exact place where the Ukrainians are sacrificed today by the exact same power groups who sent my grandfather to die along with 150,000 young men from Hungary alone in 1943. Many millions more people were sent into their graves in Europe during WWII. But what happened to the elites of the old world? Almost none of them lost their lives or their financial power. Maybe this is why their successors are so eager to repeat WWII! They did not learn the lesson, since they suffered no negative consequences. But there will be a different outcome for the worst of the elites this time.
We humans have had a long time to figure things out. On this planet, a spiritual bifurcation is taking place. Those who have raised their frequency to the extent of demonstrating humane qualities will find themselves in a more advanced fifth-dimensional world (one coexisting with our Earth right now). Those who cannot or will not sufficiently raise their frequency will continue their learning in the fourth density. For Earth, there will be no more 3D or nefarious characters.
Because the nature of humanity is to associate with one's own kind as a community, was South Africa most superior as an apartheid Caucasian nation or as the current apartheid Negro nation??
Based on who produced the most economic commerce and who created the least apartheid conflict and homicide, I'd say the former was the superior.
And what is most confusing to me is the infiltration of crime into the governments of the world. The American standard is that our governments will stand against crime in all its forms. But in older parts of the world, this standard was never attained, and - as I understand it - many people of those countries expect their governments to be criminal operations.
And so, our own government began to decay in this direction, starting almost immediately after it was established. This has resulted in a very confusing picture, and ideologists have only capitalized on this confusion to spin their various narratives of what went wrong and what needs to be done about it.
But in short: The allure of crime in our culture must be reduced if not eliminated if we ever hope to achieve a rational and stable society here. I even consider the pejorative term "globalism" a misnomer. Modern life has made global trade, communication, and interdependence inevitable. But it has also failed to find a way to rein in global crime.
Perhaps oddly, I believe that this starts at a personal level. Each of us must examine our own involvement in activities that have been less than honest, come clean and get straightened out. In so doing, we create another person who can stand up against crime with confidence. We will have to become many, from all walks of life, to reverse the decay we are currently experiencing. Those of us who could see this coming have taken certain precautions which we hope will prevent a total and permanent collapse. But the game appears quite tenuous and will probably continue to appear that way for the foreseeable future.
Not much interest In the world happening's from what I can see. Strange, being that this impacts us on so many levels. Isolation is not insulation. Wish it was, not anymore.
Secretary Rubio has been very upfront about America’s foreign policy: “No more taxpayer dollars for hostile nations that hate America. If you vote against us at the UN, chant ‘Death to America,’ or fund anti-American NGOs, you’re cut off. Period.” America is well aware of the stances that SA President Cyril Ramaphosa has taken against US interests.
Should we be using taxpayer dollars to fund any nation at all? I think not. We have enough problems here at home, and a growing monster of a deficit that it's absurd to send anything overseas. You can't buy loyalty, but the USA keeps trying. America First. Keep our tax dollars at home.
As I've said before, it seems like nothing short of a shift of the Earth's poles to eradicate the majority of the negative forces will do. The signs are showing up daily as to the imbalance of the Earth's weight from the negativity everywhere. If anyone thinks for a minute that the Earth isn't a living Being, I have something to say about the beat of the Heart of the Earth. Listen.
"However, prior policies of Western nations, including those of the US, was to always keep African nations destabilized and fractured, allowing oil and gold mining companies unfettered access to loot and plunder whilst the local population fended off their own government."
That is a perfect summary of the whole of my life's time. Never any peace from these cycles of destabilisation, fracturing, and then opportunism. Playing out at the macro and micro level. It is wearing.
I believe there are several messages to glean from this missive. One point that is predominant in my mind is that during the era of colonialism, the country that was successful in establishing a colony in another area was the one that forced their culture on the conquered one. In this case the colonizers were astute farmers, well trained in farm management and effective techniques in turning a profit. The indigenous population did not possess those skills, but was able to adapt to provide assistance of mutual benefit. This arrangement was successful for awhile, but cultural differences and oppressive human nature intervened, and prejudices led to changes in government structure. Those changes were needed and improvement resulted for another period of time, until the role reversals and feelings of revenge, led to the oppressive situation we see today. As the saying goes, there’s nothing new under the sun. We have seen these conditions repeated throughout history. Greed, selfishness, and lust for power, have continued to motivate mankind for eons. In every case, I see that it is a struggle between the good and evil in man. The solution always lies in the spiritual change for good when man adopts the commandments of God.

I think that is a very concise summary of the entire essay....
Once in awhile I get things right Doc. Lol
It's a learned experience from birth into adulthood in many nations.
Blame TV or the Internet that has provided the images of the rest of the world.
And has as such done so, as a distortional dis-service to humanity!
The Barter system has many faces at many levels.
"China has hundreds of thousands of its nationals now living in Africa" Sound familiar? I just asked this question yesterday.

its difficult to focus when the whole article is ANC, and I kept looking but the African National Congress was not defined,,,,
As editor, I should have caught this. Sorry. Justine is from SA, so all of these acronyms are common lingo for her. I caught most of them, but missed the big one. My bad.
Dr. Malone, you don’t HAVE a bad.

Especially since the majority of such aid pads the pockets of only a few people.
Amen, amen, amen!

Oh, bad, bad. You're not supposed to say Negro. You're supposed to say Black (even though Negro means black in both Spanish and Portugese).
And based on who produced the most food.
What a confusing situation!

Keep your friends close.....
But keep your Frenemies super closer with geosynchronous satellites daily!
We really do have such a host of eyes in the sky.
Many of which can read the time on a mans wristwatch standing on a street corner.
