Delusions and deluding.
Were the ambitions of the missionaries fulfilled, 15 years after the pomp and panoply of South African independence? Was the vision of the European exponents of “open house to all cultures” fulfilled? Were the arguments of those who advocated “give them a chance and they will melt into European culture seamlessly” justified? Has Black South Africa succeeded? Has Europe succeeded?
The European bitter-end protagonists of multi-culturism will say. “Yes. Some have” or “if not, this is just a matter of time, compassion, support, understanding” and advocate what is usually reserved for the mendicant or the child, further handouts of largesse. I have heard the same words spoken by parents whose wayward children are corrupt, manipulative, and extractive addicts. These failures of their children nevertheless still evoked in their parents that persisting, and instinctive delusion that all will come right eventually. They failed to see that the child was intrinsic flawed. They could not see their delusions. Instead those children not only eroded their parents’ lives but continued to gnaw destructively at a society which had not the reserves to continue to appease them indefinitely.
If we were to choose an “independent” South Africa as the design model for an ultra liberal society of the future, how should we measure the current moral strength of that nation? Surely the best we can do is to look for efficient and frugal governance and qualities of conscious care of society by those elected “democratically”? Surely me must assess the people who claim to be the most successful, the most evolved, those who believe that they are the most capable of demonstrating that black South Africa is successful. Are they?.
Rather than distribute critical analysis over a range of variables, let us look at a single aspect of the behaviour of a selection of ANC politicians. An array of travel and other benefits of office are available to South African Parliamentarians. It would be expected that the availing of these implied a prudence and selectivity, with discrimination based on honesty. Have these “leaders” fulfilled the same expectations of honesty that the missionaries had hoped to inculcate into their prodigies?
How did these politicians, given the potential to cheat and exploit, reveal their anticipated morality and virtue?

What a sad tale of failed expectation. What a reflection on those who appoint ANC candidates for parliament.
The Black Power Propaganda industry.
Should it be argued that politicians cannot be regarded as a representative, let us look instead at individuals who are or were expected to achieve their positions by merit and endeavour.
The National Police Commissioner should exemplify critical selection for dispassionate honesty and unswerving compliance with the law. The Western world acclaimed Jacob Selebi in this role, and as part of the mission to defer to the Black African capability, he was also appointed President of Interpol. In 1998 he received a Human Rights Award for International Service for Human Rights
Currently Selebi is now on trial charged with many offences, including corruption and defeating the ends of Justice. In evidence, it is claimed inter alia, that he had revealed secret UK correspondence to international criminals.
As much as the delusional expectations of the Europeans about Africa’s potential were formulated and executed by Europeans, so a parallel industry of Black Propaganda contrives to capitalise and exploit the European delusions. The aim seems to have been to demonstrate that Black Africans could compete on equal terms with the European in achievement and creativity. Sadly most of the claims promoted were fabrications , calculated to deceive.
If the above examples remain unacceptable examples, let us look at a contemporary example from sport, in which the Black Africans’ capability is unquestioned. Castor Semenya won the 800 m at the world championship in Berlin in 2009. An earlier commentary aimed at putting the subsequent furore into objective context.
However ANC high-rankers, which include the infamous Winnie Mandela and Parliamentary Ministers, instead of recognising that errors, misjudgement, and deception had occurred and that it would be appropriately prudent to withdraw and apologise to the world at large, chose to go into combat against the world in an even more astonishing ranting against Europeans and their “racism”. A desperate attempt to create a delusion of African competence via Black Power propaganda.
The Message
Europe, at least in the form of political assertions, wants its successful and often overcrowded populations to dilute their creative capacity with counter-cultural immigrants from failed nations.
European, look now and carefully at Africa if you wish to know your future, should the politicians’ aims be allowed to succeed.

On a recent trip to the United States, President Jacob Zuma addressed a major gathering of Red Indians. He spoke for almost an hour on his plans for improving South Africa's present standard of living. At the conclusion of his speech, the crowd presented him with a plaque inscribed with his new Indian name - Walking Eagle.
The proud Zuma then sang them his signature tune and departed in his motorcade, waving to the crowds. A news reporter later asked one of the Indians how they came to select the new name given to Zuma.
They explained that Walking Eagle is the name given to a bird so full of shit that it can no longer fly.
very salient issues raised.
The ANC has been a woeful failure. Everything is falling apart at the seams, from local government to the top structures. Corrupt officials are milking the system and their supporters. It is only white businesses, paying taxes, that's keeping the country afloat, and according to the ANC, who wants to kill the goose who lays the golden eggs. Anarchy is pending. The whites are watching with glee, ready to take over the country once again.
If you really are literate you can put ANC down and it will make Labour Party, except Zuma does not like to share his take around...
Remember 11th November, Rhodesian Independence Day, get out and mourn.
