Doesn't matter, when it comes down to it then any Muslim is better than the infidels. Castes are just internal family squabbles...

Not caste but sect or a branch. A Shia can convert to sunni and other way round. Not the same with caste, which is incidentally Hinduism term and not Islamic term and Islam, in theory, doesn't practice Casteism.

Caste, by definition, is something you are born into and relates to Hinduism.
 
So did Gayton "The Gap" Mckenzie say the k-word or not?

If so, shouldn't he be out by now.
If it was a white guy, it would be plastered all over the news 24/7.

Them: Africa is for Africans. Whites must go back to Europe.

Me: Which part in Europe? There are 44 countries that make up Europe.

Them: It doesn't matter, they are all white same as you, all from the same place.

Meanwhile them: We are not all the same. Our language defines us.

Ok, so then send Samuel L Jackson to his real home here in Africa and he can take over my house, and you can send me to the US and I will take over his house and car.

Spike Lee will love his new life in the Motherland.

Problem I have is I can't go to a single place in Europe.. I'm a pavement special from across the continent.
 
So failed ex-Home Affairs Minister Aaron Motsoaledi wants to temporarily halt all challenges to the NHI while the Constitutional Court considers Ramaphosa's application not to provide a record of assent to the NHI. This is of course a complete red-herring, as the challenges put forward are on other aspects of the NHI. My reading of the current situation is that the ANC are running scared of legal litigation...

Health minister Aaron Motsoaledi has launched a broadside against the parties litigating against the National Health Insurance (NHI) Act, asking the court to consolidate their cases and suspend all challenges to the constitutional validity of the legislation until the legal attacks on the president’s decision to sign it have been resolved.

The BHF and SAPPF secured an initial victory in May with a judgment from the high court in Pretoria affirming it had jurisdiction to hear their legal challenges and ordering Ramaphosa to furnish the record of his decision to assent to the contentious legislation. The president then appealed to the Constitutional Court to overturn the judgment

As a sweetener, the minister has offered to suspend implementation of section 33 of the act while proceedings are stayed. The section contains provisions that sharply reduce the role of medical schemes, limiting them to only offering cover for services that are not provided by NHI.

HFA CEO Thoneshan Naidoo said the minister’s offer not to implement section 33 was a hollow gesture, as he had previously said in court papers that it would take 10-15 years to implement NHI.

So where is the coverage. Where is the outrage from the usual suspects?

A minister has said the unforgivable in SA land multiple times and nothing gets done.
Rules for me and rules for thee, or am I missing something.

He is going. Just give it time. A number of parties have called for his removal.

He is on social media offering free tickets and people aren't having it. Just go through the comments. 🤣
