@Americas_Crimes @RyanE47272013 An act so cynical, so vile that for the first time in my life I felt compelled to stage a lone protest on a street in Johannesburg. (Here in my pajamas waiting for the paint to dry.)

"In Oman, a man was tortured for criticising the Sultan’s costly decision to fly 110 horses to Windsor for the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee Pageant in 2012. The next year, when the man tried to demonstrate against a visit by Prince Charles, he was abducted by Omani security forces.".
UK royals have met autocratic Middle East monarchies nearly once a fortnight since 2011. Their visits have often coincided with human rights abuses in the Gulf, where pro-democracy activists are punished for criticising the Windsors ties to regimes.

The endangered kea is the world’s only alpine parrot, and one of the most intelligent birds. They show no fear of humans and are thieves and pranksters. The parrot is seen in the Whakaari conservation area, near Glen Orchy in the Otago, NZ.Photograph: Murdo MacLeod/The Guardian

@peace_inourland @OUTASA I could not agree more. The rolling agenda to undermine and ultimately get the Public Protector fired is clear for all to see. What is actually at play here? I do not trust the motives of the likes of OUTA one little bit.

Please read the attachment and understand what we are up against. In South Africa as indeed in the entire southern African region we are at the mercy of an unmitigated troupe of people set on causing havoc. They have not one ethical bone between them. They defile bona fide data.

This dangerous tackle by Marika Koroibete on Makazole Mapimpi started the mess. He also hangs onto Mapimpi's jersey, after the brilliant try, but Mapimpi is sent off with a yellow card, getting the blame for the resulting fracas!

What to do when certain academic institutions (UCT for example) receive substantial financial patronage from Monsanto In return the ‘researchers’ declare Monsanto to be utterly ok and benefial.
The tragedy is that the collusion between establishment media & big corporations is such that consumer sections in media orgs are gone. There are hardly any stories about the dangers of Monsanto or the court ruling that RoundUp weed killer causes cancer. Ill make a better effort.

@snarwani @HarlowJourney Zionists and their ilk have been acutely exposed for what they are. They are frantically attempting to whitewash and sanitise the stench left in Israel's wake. Calling young people stupid and gullible is rising hysteria speaking, of course.

@SpriterTeam Well, the difficulty with Ramaphosa is that he is so compromised because he is everybody's pal. President Zuma on the other hand owed nobody any favours. He was his own man.

@WengerKing49 @SwipeWright @Eusebius @RediTlhabi Grave injustice has been done to every single woman who has had the misfortune of competing against Semenya. Her results ought to be declared null and void. II too was a track athlete in my youth. I would have balked at competing against a Semenya ~ the joy of running is gone.
