What's the issue?

What's the issue?

Ok it is crunch time. We collectively will go to the polls in just a few days time to vote in our next government. For many a change is what is desired and for most change is what is required. For almost everybody we cannot go on the way we are going. Malema has challenged Hlaudi, the South African Broadcasting Corporation's acting Chief Operating Officer, the real one is not available, that he must change his ways or risked being chucked out like a used condom by Zuma. Julius could not have been too happy with the SABC banning his election advert. I wonder why they did that?

The DA had their advert banned as well and they have a new one out and about if you care to go look.

Is Cosatu the ANC or is the ANC Cosatu? Either way they are having some terse words over whether to campaign or not and for some there will be no choice in the matter.

Anyhow, as we get ready to do the expected we have to be grateful that we don't have a president like the Egyptians, oh sorry they don't have one either, it is a military man running things over there. He just sentenced a whole bunch of people to death. Blanket use of the death penalty saves so much court time and when they did away with the accused being allowed an attorney to defend them, it took out all the arguing and back and forth that can be really time consuming. Just sentence them all to death, it is so much easier. 

A sad state of affairs on the West bank in Israel, and no that is not the kind of bank where you can keep your money for others to pilfer or to grow some radical interest while you do nothing, it is the West bank settlement of Palistinians, where Israel decided to tear down a Mosque and a few homes right on the deadline to the peace talks. Talk about fostering good neighbourly relations.

Neighbours? Did I say neighbours? Well the neighbours of Ukraine and Russia have a whole lot of fun going on there. Poland is not boxing very clever allowing the Americans to land their regiment of some 600 troops on their soil, but then training the troops for the Ukraine's dodgy puppet government wasn't too bright either. Some say that Putin has directly defied the New World Order's plans for total world domination in his backing for the pro Russian movement that is taking the Ukraine by storm.

He even told Obommer to tone down his rhetoric and stop talking such aggressive talk, and when a Russian says that to you, you either pack a spare pair of underpants or you take his advice. I would do the latter. The split that Putin has made from the NATO and EU pack seems to indicate a move towards Russia leading a new economy, namely BRICKS, and that means a new Cold War for the West, whether they like it or not. Interesting.
