    Reports of mass killings in Sudan have echoes of its dark past

    Why is everyone harping on about silence from news networks? This has been all over mainstream media for the last few days, even the dreaded Al Jazeera. People are naturally selective about where they direct their outrage, the same way people who were outraged by the October 7th massacre do...

    The SA Politics Thread Part 7 - The Truly GNU Dawn

    If I'm not mistaken, an offer was made for the DTCI as well, on the original offer before the ANC withdrew in response to the DA requesting 2 additional portfolios(Presumably) The DTCI and Comms portfolios, I would say, are key departments on a national level as well. Basic Education, Public...

    The SA Politics Thread Part 7 - The Truly GNU Dawn

    Realistically, there is no deal that the ANC and the DA can settle on that would allow the DA to completely call the shots in their portfolios. That doesn't mean the DA won't be able to make improvements to those departments though. Look at KZN for example. The DA got a few MEC positions and...

    The SA Politics Thread Part 7 - The Truly GNU Dawn

    Ridiculous take by Gareth. The DA, for the 1st time has the opportunity to prove themselves on a national stage, they should take it. They might not get all the positions they were hoping, but to suggest that they walk away completely is only going to further play into the narrative of the DA...

    2023 Israel-Hamas war: Horns of Jericho (Part 1)

    Yeah that's a bunch of horseshyte. This forum's whole thing has been about psychoanalysing racism and find multiple reasons why things perceived as racist, are actually not racist. Hell, we even have arguments about the racism in good ol days of Apartheid. So no...this is not a unique case...

    2023 Israel-Hamas war: Horns of Jericho (Part 1)

    Considering the fact that Hamas is a terrorist organization with no morals, I'd assume protesting for their surrender would be pretty useless. The only way to stop Hamas would be to go after and eliminating it's leaders.

    Yep, absolutely not a "thing".

    2023 Israel-Hamas war: Horns of Jericho (Part 1)

    If Israel having a small minority of Extremists makes them equivalent to Hamas, then that's your own opinion. You're so 2 dimensional, that you cannot even think straight. The US also has a minority of extremists, so does SA, so does the UK, France, even fcking Canada. No one is making the...

    2023 Israel-Hamas war: Horns of Jericho (Part 1)

    So we both agree that it exists. You're not saying anything that I haven't said already, I've already said its a minority. The only difference here is that you are actively trying to downplay it by saying it isn't a "thing". Farm murders are also a minority of thousands of murders in SA, but...

    2023 Israel-Hamas war: Horns of Jericho (Part 1)

    Who said the "average Israeli citizen is calling for the murder of all muslims regularly"? Do you guys not read the posts that you respond to? I was very clear that that Majority of Israelis do not have animosity towards muslims. I was just debunking your "I've never seen a single Israeli with...

    2023 Israel-Hamas war: Horns of Jericho (Part 1)

    As I said, it all depends on perspective. To a person whose family member has been killed by an Israeli extremist, it's absolutely a "thing"(Whatever that means). It doesn't mean anything to you because it obviously doesn't affect you PS Israel's biggest and Closest Ally (The US) seems to think...

    2023 Israel-Hamas war: Horns of Jericho (Part 1)

    That's the thing though, the "tough decisions" absolutely doesn't solve the problem. Look at the aftermath of the Afghan and Iraqi wars and tell me which problem that solved and if it's worth the civilian casualties.... That's the issue with some of you guys. You fail to understand that these...
