Please, I sincerely apologise if this diatribe offends anyone. Offence is sincerely not my aim here.

I am a white South African currently living in Britain. I have always been an extremely liberal, tolerant person. Pretty much everyone I know thinks of me the same way – in fact, my family often refer to me as "the hippie" because of my overly liberal attitude.

Very recently I have found that my opinions appear to be changing…

I have recently read of Julius Malema (of the ANC – South Africa’s ruling political party) singing a song called "shoot the boer!" ("boer" translates directly to "white farmer", by the way). He is the leader of the ANC youth league, someone in high power in charge of impressionable young minds.

Winnie Mandela famously called out "one farmer one bullet" at her husband Nelson Mandela’s presidential inauguration. This on what was supposed to be the dawn of South Africa’s "renaissance".

South Africa’s current president Jacob Zuma (while ruling a country that has the world’s worst AIDS statistics) had unprotected sex with a partner he barely knew. He claims that it was ok because as soon as he was done he jumped into the shower and washed his genitals.

Jacob Zuma’s predecessor Thabo Mbeki (also while ruling a country with the world’s worst AIDS statistics) constantly maintained that there was absolutely no link between HIV and AIDS.

Nksozana Dlamini-Zuma, South Africa’s former minister of health strenuously claimed that HIV and AIDS could be overcome by eating fresh garlic and African potatoes. I believe that while these products probably DO contain nutrients that are very beneficial, combatting HIV or AIDS is far beyond their capability.

My family are originally from Rhodesia (now called Zimbabwe). Robert Mugabe has systematically turned Zimbabwe (Africa’s most prosperous country formerly known as "Africa’s bread basket") to the world’s worst economy OF ALL TIME. Apparently he blames this on a 23 year drought that coincidentally happened to start when he took office.

The international world seemed to be very happy when Robert Mugabe started reallocating white-owned farms to the native people regardless of the fact that they soon turned these farms to subsistence farms – one of the leading causes of the dire economy. If this is the right thing to do, why aren’t American farmers being chased off their land (without ANY compensation) in favour of Native Americans?

A black politician in Britain (a first world country, a first world education) recently said "how can you call me racist? I’m black! You’re being ridiculous, a black person can’t be racist!". This she said shortly after referring to a fellow politician as a coconut (ie: brown on the outside, white on the inside).

Why is it that having an entirely white government is racist and wrong, but having an all black government is ok even when they clearly have racist tendencies and appear to be incompetent?

I know that I appear to be focusing on the negative and I apologise, but VERY little has appeared in the media that is positive. Having said all this, I would also like to state that when it comes to people in the general population I have absolutely no problems regarding race, colour or creed. My problem appears to be when people like this (who just so happen to usually be "of a slightly darker colour") do and say things like this when they are in a position of authority where they have a direct effect on my life.

When I hear things like this, it makes my blood boil. It makes me exceedingly angry. I can actually feel my blood pressure changing because these sorts of things are not isolated incidents. Does this make me a racist?

And before anyone tries to use Apartheid as a counter-argument, bear this in mind: Yes, the Apartheid government was GROSSLY unfair, biased and bigoted. Yes, the majority of the population was badly treated and badly educated. BUT I believe this has no bearing on my argument because it was the exact polar opposite of what is currently happening. NO MIDDLE GROUND (such as equality for ALL) HAS BEEN REACHED. Besides that, it was almost before my time (the horrendous Apartheid government came to an end when I was 12 years old) so I focus on what is happening now, during my time.

You like many others are a realist that sees what is happening yet when you speak up you get tarnished with the racist tag. The South African Government single handidly has kept the butcher called Mugabe in power. They have managed to make South Africa the most dangerous country in the world to live in.
While we all agree apartheid had to end, the reality of the ANC isn’t that much better
