What's the issue?

What's the issue?

Author: Tomas Yoko

Spring has sprung and the world is on its head. Johannesburg is burning with the looting and all out destruction of foreign shop owners goods and stores. This is a problem directly caused by the department of home affairs failing repeatedly to effect their mandate. The problem was alluded to by some politicians from the wrong party, so ignored is what that got.

As we sink deeper and deeper into the quagmire that is a country with corrupt leadership and no political will or power to affect change. Our porous borders another drain on our resources, but who cares about that

The rape and murder of a young woman in a post office in broad daylight has brought about an outcry against the abuse perpetrated by men against women. This too will not be checked until we get a leadership that does not tolerate violent crimes against anyone, man or woman. But the lethargy and lack of leadership is now showing more and more in the farm murders that continue unabated, in the political murders of any opponent to the corrupt in power. We will not be able to stop the senseless looting and rioting, violent crime, theft, rape and assault until we get a leadership that can stand up to the evil in our midst.

We can turn to God and pray, but until we turn to our leadership and demand a much higher standard than what we have at the moment, we can expect more of the same. I mean how little respect does our leadership have for our leadership The Durban Mayor's about face is a clear indication to the answer to that question. And that is the problem with all our problems here in SA. Insubordination in the ranks is further illustrated in the case of our so-called Public Protector suddenly pulling out of her leave to appeal against the high court ruling against her. Her manner and actions nothing less than an affront on her office.

But that's nothing, look at BoJo the clown. He is willing to shut down the UK Parliament to force the Brexit issue through. They are jumping around their parliament like crickets in a breeding box. Jump, jump, jump and still in the same box. BoJo's MP's are crossing the floor and causing a minority government to materialise.

The Hong Kong protests are getting uglier and uglier with more and more human rights violations every day. That is going to be a long stand off in my estimation.

And to top it all, Donald Dump is predicting that he will destroy the Chinese economy if they don't make a deal with him soon. Delusional doesn't even come close to his condition.

And our whistle-blower, Julian Assange sends us a warning that his persecution is ours, saying that it is intended to kill descent, and so it is.

As Pakistan tests another ballistic missile, and the warring factions in the Middle East hurl one rocket bomb after another at each other, we should all quietly bow our heads in prayer, to ask nothing but give thanks and praise.
