Crime drives US Embassy to ground
The US has one of the best intelligence gathering organisations in the world, plus some generously funded think tanks to analyse given scenarios and predict likely outcomes.
So when the American embassy in South Africa starts cancelling numerous leases of private properties to house their staff in, and are bringing in only single people with no children to replace those married couples with families, it implies a significant underlying issue. But not as significant as the next little factoid of interest - the Americans are not only cancelling & lapsing their existing leases, they will in future be housing their embassy staff in secure compounds. The only other countries this happens in, are the war zones of Iraq, Afghanistan, Saudi Arabia etc. where Americans face what is termed “a clear and present danger”.
When a major power such as the USA are sending home key personnel with wives and children, and are replacing them with unmarried or single staff, it speaks volumes. Yet David Grier, deputy press attache at the US Embassy in Pretoria upchucks the usual peecee bullshit in an attempt to not offend the wild black beasts of the ruling ANC regime. He offers a mealy-mouthed explanation of “changing demographics” to dismiss what is a patently obvious policy on the part of the US government to not endanger American women & children in the perilous hell hole of South Africa.
He does however confirm the new security regime of containing US staff within a Iraqi-style secure compound, which in US parlance will be referred to as a “green zone”. We should take note of what the Americans will consider as orange and red zones, but you don’t need to be an Einstein to figure out that anything outside of a US compound will be a danger zone…and if you further consider that intelligence and trends are carefully scrutinised by the CIA, and acted upon by highly skilled American analysts, this new initiative of “green zone” security compounds does not bode well at all.
I cannot offer any proof of this, but common sense dictates that it’s probably a given that American embassy staff in South Africa receive additional “danger pay” allowances not included for embassy staff in other, more stable countries.
However, South African regime spokesmen have insisted as recently as this week that violent crime has shown a remarkable drop since 1994, so feel free to dismiss this article as alarmist mud-raking on the part of reactionary racist, counter-revolutionary Whites such as mois who will stop at nothing to slander our glorious new freedom and democracy.
