South Africa: BRICS
Two leaders sat down together. One was the critical teacher throwing up half-truths, the other was the guilty trying to get away with it.
This is a list of issues that came up during the meeting, and we don’t know if the South African trade negotiators will get away with retaining the free trade agreement, AGAO. … Continue reading

A History of the Judeo-Christian Zionazi Empire
A masterful historical exposition – both geopolitical and eschatological, providing context to the ongoing holocaust of the Arabs, and anticipatory of the next events.
If you can, download as MP3 and speed up to 3.0x for Imran Hosein and 2.4x speed for Dr. Olsi. Highly recommended for both their two lecture parts, and the following interactive… Continue reading

The BRICS spirit: alive and well in South Africa
Africa now essentially needs political will to fight infrastructural problems, a human capital deficit and an institutional deficit.
By Pepe Escobar at Strategic Culture Foundation.
JOHANNESBURG – At the APEC annual summit in Lima, Comrade Xi Jinping was practically coronated as the King of Peru, as a lively moveable feast celebrated the brand new $1.3 billion Chancay-Shanghai… Continue reading

▫️ On President Vladimir Putin, Western Sanctions and Russia’s Resilience:
When Vladimir Putin came to power in 2000, he had to rebuild Russia from the ground up. As a journalist traveling through Russia in the ’90s, I witnessed the chaos of those times. But where is Russia today? The transformation is extraordinary. Moscow, for example, has… Continue reading

South Africa’s GNU (Government of National Unity) is under fire
A brief history.
During the last elections, the ANC (African National Congress) could not win enough votes for a government and could not form an alliance or ally with anyone else for enough votes to form a government. Eventually, a GNU (Government of National Unity) was negotiated with all the parties, even the small ones, based… Continue reading

Elections: Mexico, South Africa and heating up for Venezuela
It is a pleasure to receive a Mexican Election Update Report from Mexico City from Ramin Mazaheri. But the content is probably not so pleasurable. The election is on Sunday, June 2nd.
They’re killing one another something fierce this election season. Over 30 candidates were murdered in the most violent Mexican elections ever. (I cannot embed… Continue reading

Naledi Pandor on South Africa’s Struggle for Palestine
“When we sat there in The Hague, the feeling in my heart was for the first time Israel’s impunity is visible to the world.”
The bravery of South Africa bears repeating. It is ironic the second to last official Apartheid state started the firestorm to burn down the Old Order, due to outrage over the brazen… Continue reading

A possible plus for South Africa as a BRICS member, or the Grim Reaper cometh
We support our BRICS members, despite the frequent sharp critique. After the debacle with Mr.Putin’s possible visit to South Africa, and the eventual announcement that he will not attend the BRICS summit in August in Johannesburg, but will attend via video link, the South Africans put lipstick on a pig, and announced the great miracle… Continue reading

Dear Cyril
Dear Cyril (Ramaphosa)
The US is rolling you. Poland just rolled you. Ukraine rolled you with made-up rumors of missiles and screaming alarms during your visit and led you into a shelter in complete pretense, they led you to sip at the poisoned cup of Bucha, your high-level delegation fell apart, your support staff were locked… Continue reading

BRICS in South Africa
I’ve written about South Arica sitting on two chairs, and this being a real threat to BRICS, specifically for the upcoming BRICS meetings and summits. “People need to be hopeful. Discouraged communities, polarized communities, and weak governance will not get you there but will get your country into failed state position. It is better if… Continue reading
