Now the local district elections will take place on Monday, 1 November and the workers at Eskom (South Africa's electricity supplier) have been sabotaging the entire grid to get people to fight against the ANC ruling party.

      @ⲁⲧⲥⲉⲙⲛⲓ Despite your comment being so irrelevant and of extremely low intelligence, rather than ignore you, I chose to reply to attempt to educate you because I care about you. A quote is any written or spoken statement that is "not necessarily" (may or may not be) the user's own words but rather the exact words of the originator of the statement. I know that you have difficulty understanding the simple English language, proverbs are quotes, they are statements made by people. All writers and speakers, when using others' works, are required by law to always cite or attribute quotes to their rightful owners. Failure to do this amounts to the crime of plagiarism. Moreover, the person you are trying to defend did not even mention that the statement was from Africa but instead used it as if it was his own statement, which is a criminal act.

H.R. McMasters also authored "Dereliction of Duty" about the officers and Viet Nam, ironic and/or tone deff. At least Powells chief of staff, Lt. Col. Wilkerson had the balls to admit to being a coward and not wanting to go agasint the grain and popular opinion/support "in a time of war" and end up being pushed out, flushed away and forgotten.
      Probably why Wilkerson is, in my opinion, looked upon more favorably as times gone on. He knew what he did wrong, admitted it, and to my knowledge, has spent the rest of his days attempting to atone for his moment of weakness and cowardness that caused unimaginable pain and misery, etc., in our name. I follow, listen/read his work regularly.
      The late rep. Walter Jones (R) of North Carolina (coined the "freedom fries", when France refused to join the "coalition of the willing") Supported the war pretty vehemently, based on what he was told, knew, could care to look for, added to the post-9/11 fearsteria, blah-blah-blah. Had quite the change of heart after a widowed wife and a few fatherless newborns funeral for their marine father in 2003. It broke his ass, so much so that he began writing letters to the families to every US fatality in country until the day he died. Not that it did anything for the hundreds of thousands-million+ Iraqis killed, ruined and destroyed, etc., but its something. And I hope hes haunted after deatg by his decisions for eternity.
      He was also a part of the Senate Report on Pre-war Intelligence on Iraq, if I recall correctly. The exchanges between he, Lt Col Wilkerson, Paul Pillar and two other individuals. Its a fantastic exchanges and sheds light on how the Office of Special Plans was able to do and get away with what it did. The look on Jones' face is nothong short of saying that what occured was a policy coup. Inexperienced people were brought in, made an office in the DoD, wanted a war and to pursue policies and got it-and dragged the US, the middle east and millions of lives with them. Its a great exchange, incredibly hard to find the full version of the exchange. The insight and information revealed is unbelievable, and infuriating.
      If you can get someone in the executive, that brings whom they want with them, they can set up any "office/group", do what they want, get away with it, cover the whole thing up. And histroy, nor the government at large or people will be none the wiser. Its disturbing.

    18century Belgium King leopard 2 killed 12million congolease with bioweapon smallpox.
    19 century Brits, French rest of Europa came for full colonisations .
    My point is in the last 500yrs our lives, culture, wealth, resources, have been disrupted, demoralised, destroyed and death followed.
    Europa/ west has made sure we never raise by funding rivaly tribes against each other because of resources, they get to rip all the resources gets most of the benefits, this dictators Are mostly funded and used to extract resources. Most of them control large reserves of resources thats why they evade arrest..

      Colonialism ended 60 years ago. Bombed to the stone age Japan and germany recovered faster than that.
      Europeans bought slaves at shore ports from African slave traders.
      They never captured any themselves.
      Slavery was over when whites like Stanley and Livingstone explored the African interior.

      This is unforgivable, its done over and again over 500yrs. And you want us to blame ourselves after stealing and destroying our culture. Most africans were left diorganised and our leaders were killed and the wealth they had stolen.

    Not sure I like this one, Caspian Report. It's unusually didactic for this channel, and the top-10 format has an ugly, commercial vibe usually found on lesser channels.
