It would appear that the bubble has burst. Time is neigh to do the reckoning. Shikwati asserts that the former South African President, the Nobel Laureate, Nelson Mandela (RIP), was a Trojan Horse. I agree.
“Metaphorically, a “Trojan horse” has come to mean any trick or stratagem that causes a target to invite a foe into a securely protected bastion or place.” Wikipedia
The concessions that the first post-apartheid black South African president, Mandela, made, in the name of peace and reconciliation, are what make him and those concessions a Trojan horse.
Through those concessions, a smoke screen was provided for side-stepping the necessary reckoning on tough issues that are the sustaining legacy of South African apartheid regimes.
Until that reckoning is genuinely done, accusing black South African former presidents of corruption and jailing them for contempt of court, can only be construed as fostering pseudo democracy that serves racist tendencies that justified apartheid.
The tone with which global-western media is reporting tragic events in South-Africa is telling.
President of South Africa emeritus, Jacob Zuma
With celebratory headlines, for example, to the effect that the jailing of the President of South Africa emeritus, Jacob Zuma, is a victory. They are tone deaf to the realities on the ground.
It is culturally incompetent and it is ill advised to demand that an emeritus post-apartheid black South African president, a 79-year-old, whose ancestry is of the largest first nation of South Africa, should serve a 15 months sentence in prison.
As early as 2009, significant South African Leaders, such as Julius Selio Malema, had already warned that former president Zuma was too old to go to jail.
Julius Selio Malema the leader of South Africa’s Economic Freedom Fighters political party is quoted as having said: “”Jail time for an old person like that [referring Zuma] is not suitable. What kind of society have we become to jail such old people?” Malema asked.” News24
Of what use is jailing former South African president Zuma?
What will his jailing achieve?
If it was intended to provoke black-on-black violence, it has achieved that.
What a victory for those who faced the wrath of united black South Africans, who, united, fought against the apartheid regimes.
Steve Biko is surely turning restless in his grave.
Why the seeming different handling of former president Zuma’s case?
Pieter Willen Botha for apartied president of South African @ Wikipedia
There is as precedent.
Apartheid South Africa president emeritus, Pieter Willen Botha, was handed a suspended sentence, when he refused to testify to the Truth and Reconciliation Commission that was constituted by President Mandela.
He refused to testify in an inquiry that implicated him and got away without jail time. Why is that?
White South African apartheid leaders got away with committing atrocities that are equal in depth and in volume to those that were committed by the criminals who were tried at the Nuremberg trials.
