Jacob Zuma

How much longer will this man be in charge of South Africa.

On Monday, a bloodsoaked dictator was allowed to escape justice while visiting South Africa. Omar al-Bashir, who has tormented Sudan for 26 years, was an honoured guest of Mr Zuma at an African Union summit in Johannesburg. Never mind that Mr Bashir has been indicted by the International Criminal Court (ICC) for alleged genocide, war crimes and crimes against humanity. Never mind that his armed forces and militias have laid waste to the region of Darfur, butchering countless Africans.
And never mind that South Africa is legally obliged to arrest Mr Bashir and ensure that he stands trial, in accordance with its membership of the ICC. Instead, Sudan’s autocrat was able to enter the country, attend the summit and then fly home unmolested. Most remarkably of all, the High Court had ordered the government to prevent Mr Bashir from leaving South Africa, pending a decision on whether to demand his arrest. But the evidence suggests that Mr Zuma’s government, at the very least, turned a blind eye to the court order and allowed Mr Bashir to depart on a private jet.

Would he have been invited to where ever hosted the conference?

Jacob Zuma is all about the cash.Al-Bashir has assets worth big money in SA.Cash probably changed hands and thats how JZ rolls.Many other African leaders also have cash stashed in SA. And according to the majority theres nothing wrong because its the' African Way'

Politics and Religion always two topics guaranteed to get into an argument.

270 countries and i doubt any one country has the perfect solution.

i just have sympathy with the poorest of the poor cause they count on governments to look after them and most do a very poor job of that.

Anyone listening / watching the Constitutional Court hearing on powers of PP, etc??

Lawyers that defend the indefensible, on the basis that everyone deserves to be provided with a competent defence, need to play back their attempts at a defence and see and hear how foolish they look and sound...

In my humble opinion, Jeremy Gauntlett, the advocate representing JZ, must do same at the end of this case...

The Chief Justice trying to help / guide the advocate who is speaking on behalf of the Speaker of the National Assembly...not seeming to be getting through to her...

If I feel sorry for the advocate, I open myself to being called rac_ _ t so I will just say that she is getting her just desserts for being out of her depth and defending the indefensible...
