Interesting article in the Washington Post. The replies are even better than the article itself:

At last some Western journos are beginning to see the truth about South Africa.South Africa is run by an axis of evil - the black-nationalist, racist, African National Congress (ANC), the S.A. Communist Party and the Marxist trade union grouping, Cosatu.
The US is reaping what it sowed in the early 90’s.The ANC and Mbeki are corrupt to the core and the Mandela myth has been swallowed by a gullible populace led by a PC Liberal Press.They have practiced genocide against White South Africans,primarily Farmers,under the guise of “crime” whilst looting the Country of its wealth. Mbeki is just another African Despot and Zuma is a new one in the making.This is their record:
The Land Bank Scandal where the ANC’s current deputy president embezzled nearly R800 million through fraudulent loans made from state funds.
The Cellgate Scandal where the country’s third cellular telecoms license was awarded to an unfavourable bidder based on an ANC connection.
The Arms Deal that will cost the S.A. taxpayer over R80 billion and has been plagued by endless ANC mismanagement, poor oversight and unquantified fraud and corruption.
Travelgate where ANC MP’s defrauded the taxpayer of thousands of rands in travel funds allocated to parliamentarians for which they have never been prosecuted and do not need to repay.
Oilgate where R11 million of taxpayer’s funds were illegally channelled to the ANC coffers for the 2004 election and the Food for Oil Scandals which involved the ANC “elites” such as Sexwale and Ramaphosa.
Highest Aids deaths and ratio per capita in the world: The denial of the link between HIV and Aids which results in 900 deaths per day.
Crime: The ANC until recently denied vigorously the incidence of rampant crime and did nothing, also leaving in place a Police Commissioner with ties to the mafia and a Security and Safety ‘minister’ who lists being a wine waiter on his official government website resume.
Chancellor House: An ANC front company set up to raise income for the ANC from BEE programmes designed to award contracts and shareholdings to ANC ministers, their wives and friends and divert proceeds to the ANC.

It is complicit in polarising the races hoping to eradicate the country’s white population through racist affirmative action, BEE programs and focused crime (such as farm attacks) which leads to forced emigration.
Get the 2010 World Cup out of there before there is a human disaster of enormous proportion.

So far, South Africa — of all places — sides with the despots.

Yup one man one vote sounds great until you learn the people voting choose to vote themselves into a disaster… We forced it on Rhodesia and Mugabe took over, starting calling the place Zimbabwe and preceded to destroy the country from within.. Now it’s South Africa turn.. yeah it was suppose to be this great thing when everyone could vote… but since then the place has gotten worse not better. With increases in crime and AIDs under Mbeki and it’s hard to believe it will get any better when the corrupt rapist Zuma takes charge.. What a shame.. we certainly didn’t do that country any favors..

Then there was another user:

I’m glad I got to South Africa when Mandela was in charge. Before long, it may be another Zimbabwe…
