Within the ANC

Sorry for the late replies, I haven't been able to load the website for a few days.

During their siege of Kimberley the Boers bombarded the town full of civilians (48,000 inhabitants with 12,000 woman and 10,000 children) with indiscriminate and nearly constant artillery fire for about 4 months.

So is that not terrorism ???.

Not if there were British soldiers inside kimberly. But that doesn't make it right.

Reluctanly only because all other avenues was closed to them ... they tried the peacefull resistance method a.l.a Ghandi with the Defiance campaign but unlike the Brits the govt responded with an incident like Sharpeville.

I never said it wasn't reluctant.

Also the armed resistance was rather not the main focus and was generally dissciplined .... some of you go on endlessly about Magoo's Bar and Robert McBride but what do you think would have happened here in South Africa if the ANC took a hardline stance as some wanted in the movement and adopted the same brutal tactics as the Tamil Tigers of Sri Lanka and that Zarqawi fella in Iraq for example ???.

Your schools, churches and homes would not have been safe ... think about that for a moment and be thankfull it was never esclated to that point.

And I didn't say anything which is in disagreement with this, either.
 
PPl LIKE YOU MAKE ME SICK!!!!!!

Right..... Now this is not going to be a very nice post i can tell you that.

To Baby & Angelo.... Who the FU#@ do you think you are!!!
Take your RACISIM AND STICK IT.
You want a reason to chirp well here it is..... PPL LIKE YOU ARE A DISGRACE!
You have a chip on your shoulder and are using it as an excuse pillow whenever it suits you. all i have to say to someone like you is go hug a tree!!

Maybe you need to take a step back from your high horse and look at the ppl that are suffering around you... take a glance at how nicely you have things and how your "kind" has taken apartheid and switched it 180 degrees.

Now your "kind" is being the Apartheid and we are the oppressed. No matter how you want to look at it.

Do you hear us complaining about how you are rasist to us?
Do you hear us getting all evil and having a problem?

NO we have taken it as punishment for our ancestors.. something we couldnt have dont anything about.....

What! you wanted me to create a time capsule and go back in time and say to my ancestors what a naughty boi he is? You have lost your mind in so many ways its not even funny...

I have found over the years the only way to approch somone like you is to act the way you feel us whites are!
Now if you still have issues go take a pill and sleep cause i couldnt care about your problems since we have much more important things to take care of in this country besides your black problems!!!!
 
ANC's Motlanthe backs 'principled' Zuma

The battle lines in the ANC's acrimonious succession battle were clearly drawn on Monday when ANC secretary general Kgalema Motlanthe tacitly threw his weight behind the party's deputy president, Jacob Zuma, saying he was a "principled leader of the party".

I wonder what implication this will have on the party since Motlanthe is widely respected within the ANC.
