Neo-Marxism Means Big Business in South Africa – and it’s Bombing

By: James Simpson

The article below, “South Africa: Only a Matter of Time Before the Bomb Explodes,” was written by Moeletsi Mbeki, the brother of the former Post-Apartheid President of South Africa, Thabo Mbeki, and son of an African National Congress (ANC) leader. Read my commentary below in light of this article and its author. If you still can’t buy the message after that, then I must conclude your mind is fatally shut!

South Africa is going the way of Zimbabwe, an outcome I predicted in 1994. This is not rocket science, or the result of some supernatural foresight. It always happens when a communist-led insurgency takes over a country, any country. Communism facilitates the enrichment of its top leaders at the expense of everyone else. That is and always has been its true purpose. Ideology delivers the rationale and the ideologically motivated foot-soldiers (who do most of the dirty work but rarely benefit). The end result is always repression and extreme economic hardship, while the Kleptocrats pillage and steal. If you don’t know that the ANC and its leader, Nelson Mandela were communists, you need to bone up.

This is happening here as well, in case you didn’t notice, although they market it with sugar-coated names like “Economic Stimulus” and “Bailout.” As long as there is an electorate to answer to, they have to. In 2009, a prominent economist was interviewed on CNBC. He characterized Obama’s economic policies as “Zimbabwe Economics.” Here is the interview: (at youtube.com). That is what we have, and we can think of Zimbabwe as the canary in the coal mine. Our country needs to reverse course while we still have the option.

Two excerpts follow, but the entire article is advised:

South Africa: Only a Matter of Time Before the Bomb Explodes.”

I can predict when SA’s “Tunisia Day” will arrive. Tunisia Day is when the masses rise against the powers that be, as happened recently in Tunisia. The year will be 2020, give or take a couple of years. The year 2020 is when China estimates that its current minerals-intensive industrialisation phase will be concluded.

For SA, this will mean the African National Congress (ANC) government will have to cut back on social grants, which it uses to placate the black poor and to get their votes. China’s current industrialisation phase has forced up the prices of SA’s minerals, which has enabled the government to finance social welfare programmes.

The ANC inherited a flawed, complex society it barely understood; its tinkerings with it are turning it into an explosive cocktail. The ANC leaders are like a group of children playing with a hand grenade. One day one of them will figure out how to pull out the pin and everyone will be killed.

A famous African liberation movement, the National Liberation Front of Algeria, after tinkering for 30 years, pulled the grenade pin by cancelling an election in 1991 that was won by the opposition Islamic Salvation Front. In the civil war that ensued, 200000 people were killed.

The former British prime minister, Margaret Thatcher, once commented that whoever thought that the ANC could rule SA was living in Cloud Cuckoo Land. Why was Thatcher right?

A wise government would have persuaded the skilled white and Indian population to devote some of their time — even an hour a week — to train the black and coloured population to raise their skill levels.

What the ANC did instead when it came to power was to identify what its leaders and supporters wanted. It then used SA’s strengths to satisfy the short-term consumption demands of its supporters. In essence, this is what is called black economic empowerment (BEE).

BEE promotes a number of extremely negative socioeconomic trends in our country. It promotes a class of politicians dependent on big business and therefore promotes big business’s interests in the upper echelons of government. Second, BEE promotes an anti-entrepreneurial culture among the black middle class by legitimising an environment of entitlement. Third, affirmative action, a subset of BEE, promotes incompetence and corruption in the public sector by using ruling party allegiance and connections as the criteria for entry and promotion in the public service, instead of having tough public service entry examinations.

MSM: Focusing on the Minor While Ignoring the Major to Help Obama

By: Lloyd Marcus

Mary and I accepted Becky’s gracious offer to use her condo for a week of relaxation. The panoramic view of the Gulf of Mexico from the balcony is breathtakingly beautiful. The spectacular scene of varying shades of blue sky and alive water is always in a continuous state of change. From our high vantage point, we realized that the gulf is a mirror reflecting the heavens, gifting the sky an opportunity to behold it’s own glory.

We were thrilled to witness a pod of dolphins swimming in one direction across our view in the mornings and swimming in the opposite direction in the evenings. Their amazing water ballet featured dolphins two by two, in unison, gracefully leaping into the air and reentering the water in one silky smooth movement.

“The fool hath said in his heart, there is no God.” Psalm 14:1

Surfing the TV channels, I caught the media frenzy over stupid statements made by Republican Todd Akin. One could only conclude that Akin was the most important news story on the planet. This is yet another example of irresponsible, reprehensible and sold-their-souls-to-the-devil behavior by the mainstream media. Their motto is anything that helps Obama or makes Republicans look bad must be exploited to the max. So Akin will receive 24/7 coverage until they have milked every ounce of negative PR for Republicans out of the story.

Remarkably, the mainstream media functions as if getting Obama reelected trumps everything including world affairs, national security, the U.S. economy and nation race relations.

While our media imitates sharks responding to blood in the water ripping apart Akin, Iran unveiled a new upgraded missile. In response, Israel is talking about possibly attacking Iran. http://www.foxnews.com/world/2012/08/21/iran-unveils-upgraded-missile-as-israel-further-weighs-possiblity-attack/ Food and gas prices continue to skyrocket. Mary said, “Can you believe a quart of mayo is five dollars on sale?” One in seven Americans are on food stamps. http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2012/06/28/food-stamp-programs-promoting-with-parties-games/

Have you heard the mainstream media talk about any of these crucial issues? The answer is no because these extremely important news stories do not further the mainstream media’s mission to reelect Obama.

As I stated, even national race relations is fair game to be sacrificed for Obama. For example: The mainstream media has ignored the New Black Panthers’ call for violence on Republicans at the Republican National Convention in Tampa. http://www.breitbart.com/Breitbart-TV/2012/08/14/NBP-Threaten-Cracker-Republican-Tampa-Convention-Wont-Be-Tolerated-Our-Feet-Will-Be-On-Your-Necks

The New Black Panthers’ rant on a radio program against Republicans was vile, profane, racist and hate-filled. And yet, we have not heard one peep of rebuke or denouncement from Obama, the Democrats or the mainstream media. The Panthers outrageously and absurdly claim that Republicans hate black people. Therefore, the Panthers claim moral authority to say to the RNC: our “Feet will be on your motherf***king necks.”

Judging by their silence regarding the Panthers’ hate-filled threat of violence on whites, one can only conclude that the Obama camp believes that the New Black Panthers ginning up hatred in blacks, against white Republicans is good for Obama’s reelection. So what if their evil lie rhetoric sets back national race relations, inspires violence and furthers racial division. The Obama camp is not going to look a gift horse in the mouth.

The Obama justice department and mainstream media simply yawned when the New Black Panthers broke the law by putting a bounty on the head of George Zimmerman. Could the under reported epidemic of black flash mob attacks on whites across America be the fruit of the mainstream media supporting Democrat race-baiting and ignoring New Black Panthers threats of violence? http://www.wnd.com/2012/06/chicagos-unreported-race-war/

This is the evil we good people of America are up against folks. It truly is a war of us against them who harbor evil intentions. This election is not politics as usual; Democrats vs Republicans fighting for control of America’s purse strings.

Given their obvious agenda to reelect Obama, lack of fair and balanced analysis and refusal to report news which really affects our lives, I have no, I repeat, no respect for the mainstream media. My gag reflex is growing increasingly weak watching small minded arrogant people on TV pontificating about premises which are flawed at their root; such as, all opposition to Obama is racist.

This week, it was 24/7 coverage of Akin. In these days leading up to the November presidential election, expect the mainstream media to triple down on their coverage of minor stories that they believe will help Obama while ignoring major news that impacts our lives.

The New Black Panthers are pushing for a race war. And yet, the president, his justice department, the Democratic Party and the mainstream media say nothing. Absolutely contemptible.

Hang in there my fellow patriots. God is still on our side and we will defeat this evil come November. May God bless you and the United States of America.

Oh look, two more dolphins just swam by.

All-Out Marxist Media Assault on Romney/Ryan Begins with Gusto!

By: Sher Zieve
Gulag Bound

Vladimir Lenin reading Pravda

First and foremost–lest I forget–both the presidential and vice-presidential “debates” questioning of Romney, Obama, Ryan and Biden will be moderated by the most leftist “journalists” who inhabit the alphabet network stables. To top it off, the sole vice-presidential debate’ “moderator”–Martha Raddatz–was married to an Obama FCC appointee Julius Genachowski whom the Daily Caller reports was a “Genachowski and classmate Barack Obama worked together on the Harvard Law Review, Genachowski as notes editor and Obama as the publication’s president. They graduated in the same class.” Note: This year, the media bias appears to be greater than ever…if that’s even possible.

The Marxist media have been passing on each and every Obama syndicate (which includes all White House staff and all Democrats in Congress) unsubstantiated negative story (aka “lie”) perpetrated against both Romney and Ryan. Long after they have been proven false, the media (including–of course–CNN and MSNBC) continue to float and “report on” these concocted yarns and tall-tales that Romney (while Governor of Massachusetts) outsourced jobs to India, caused a woman with no health insurance to develop and die from Cancer (not only did she have health insurance but, the entire premise of the ObamaAD appears to have been manufactured by Obama operative Stephanie Cutter illegally in conjunction with an Obama SuperPAC) and–another lie delivered via Ms. Cutter–that Romney lied to the SEC and is a felon.

Note: As with all Marxists and other totalitarian aficionados, at some point it becomes almost impossible to keep up with their contrived lies. This is what they count on occurring.

However, with regards to the upcoming debates, we suspect the questioning may go a little like this:

Presidential Debates

Moderator: “Mr. Romney, we’re aware that you’re a vulture capitalist, a felon and that you love to outsource jobs to other countries but, why do you and the Republicans hate women and minorities? I don’t have much time so please answer my question in 15 seconds!”

Moderator: “President Obama, we already know your first choice but, what other super-powers would you like to have? Please take all of the time you need.”

Moderator: “Mr. Romney, do you remember when you first become a racist or have you always been one?”

Moderator: “President Obama, where do you plan to take your next vacation and why did you decide to choose that location?”

Vice-Presidential Debate

Moderator: “Mr. Ryan, we know you hate seniors so how do you justify your economic program?”

Moderator: “Vice-President Biden, is it too soon for you to give us your picks for the next Super Bowl?”

Moderator: “Mr. Ryan, why are you a misogynist?”

Moderator: “Mr. Vice President, is it still too soon for you to give us your Super Bowl picks?”

The good news is that at least the vast majority (61%) of US citizens (if one can even marginally believe the polls) know that the media are not only voting for Marxist Obama but, are now actively campaigning for him on air! The bad news is that neither Romney nor Ryan appear to have demanded at least one right-leaning moderator. And speaking of presidential polling, can anyone tell me how in the world the vast majority of our citizens (some as high as 70% of even leftist pollsters) believe that Obama is destroying the country but, still think he’s a “nice guy?” These “likeability” polls are as skewed as they come.

For those who still don’t see the media’s bias for dictatorial policies and individuals, please try to watch the upcoming debates with a truly unbiased mind

Again, it’s time to take our country back from the thugs and criminals occupying our federal government. If Team Obama doesn’t pull off some event that will allow him to declare “elections off” we still have the chance to save our country in November. If he does declare elections-off, we can still do it. But, it will be a great deal messier, harder and far more dangerous. However, rid them we must or we should be prepared for abject slavery. Our choice…

“Call unto me, and I will answer thee, and show thee great and mighty things, which thou knowest not”
–Jeremiah 33:3

The DNC Embraces Radical Islam

By: Terresa Monroe-Hamilton
Hat Tip: Nancy Jacques

Well, the DNC is no longer just on the whacky edge. They have charged full bore (or is that ‘full boar?’) off the loony cliff of radicalism and are currently yelling Allahu Akbar! all the way down. They’ve dhimmied up and have gone weak kneed submissive to radical Islam with the steadfast leadership of Keith Ellison and the guidance of Islamic fundamentalist Louis Farrakhan. Obama and the DNC are indeed staying true to his Islamic roots by giving Islam an honored place at the table for their convention in Charlotte, NC. From RedState:

How BIMA gained access to the DNC is more of a mystery. Muhammad Heshaam Jaaber, the Executive Director, Jibril Hough, spokesman, and Captain James Yusuf Yee, BIMA National Representative for the DNC are the only publicly identified members and each one appears to be connected to U.S. Representative Keith Ellison; the first Muslim ever to be elected to Congress and a former supporter of Louis Farrakhan. Ellison, who attended President Obama’s Iftar Dinner earlier this month, made the news last month when Representative Michelle Bachmann called for him (among others) to be investigated for ties to the Muslim Brotherhood. Whether or not he has ties to the Muslim Brotherhood, Ellison is not far from them having associates within BIMA. Jasser points out that Hough sought advice from Ellison before proceeding with his Town Hall with Rep. Myrick. Captain Yee (who will be speaking at the event) appears in BIMA’s promotional video for Jumah at the DNC quoting Ellison as saying, “If you’re not at the table, then you’re on the menu.” Yee is described by BIMA as “a chaplain in the U.S. Military” and an “eye witness to to the unjust treatment of military detainees and prisoners of Guantanamo Bay” who was allegedly detained “when he took steps to prevent the injustice.” However, BIMA fails to mention that Yee was charged by the military with sedition, aiding the enemy, spying, espionage and failure to obey a general order; charges ultimately dropped due to national security concerns about releasing evidence in the case. Also speaking will be Hassen Abdellah, who BIMA has no problem admitting was “a lead defense attorney for the 1993 First World Trade bombing suspects” Ellison has also appeared alongside Wahhaj on many speaking engagements for organizations such as ISNA and NAIF, despite both organizations being fronts for the Muslim Brotherhood. If Ellison is the link between BIMA and the DNC, then can it be said that, not only does he not mind the questionable associations of those within the organization, but also the other speakers they will be bringing in?

The Democratic National Convention will commence from August 31st through September 1st with a focus on Islam. Jumah at the DNC will begin Aug. 29th. 20,000 Muslims are expected to be in attendance. This is according to the Bureau of Indigenous Muslim Affairs (BIMA), led by one of the un-indicted co-conspirators in the World Trade Center bombing. The DNC has come full circle since 9-11 and they are now embracing the enemy from within and joining with radical Islam and their hatred of America. Have you ever seen a more clear demarcation between good and evil, light and dark? I haven’t. From Robert Spencer:

Take, for example, BIMA spokesman Jibril Hough. Hough’s mosque, the Islamic Center of Charlotte, is owned by a Muslim Brotherhood group, the North American Islamic Trust (NAIT), which was named an unindicted co-conspirator in the Holy Land Foundation Hamas terror funding case. When confronted about this on a radio show, Hough first professed not to be aware of the charges against NAIT, and then refused to disavow the organization, saying only that he himself was “not necessarily” a member of NAIT and: “I was not involved in the decision to allow NAIT to be the [title] holder.”

Meanwhile, the “Grand Imam” for Jumah at the DNC is none other than Siraj Wahhaj. Wahhaj is one of the most sought-after speakers on the Muslim circuit, and has addressed audiences all over the country; in 1991, he even became the first Muslim to give an invocation to the U.S. Congress. After 9/11, his renown as a moderate Muslim grew when he declared: “I now feel responsible to preach, actually to go on a jihad against extremism.” But as with so many other Muslim leaders in the U.S., Siraj Wahhaj is not as moderate as he may appear at first glance.

Wahhaj was several years ago designated a “potential unindicted co-conspirator” in the 1993 World Trade Center bombing. He himself has denounced this designation as essentially meaningless, but he didn’t earn it by doing nothing. In the early 1990s he squired the Blind Sheikh, Omar Abdel Rahman, all around New York City and New Jersey, sponsoring talks by him in area mosques. The Blind Sheikh, of course, is now serving a life sentence for his role in the first World Trade Center bombing in 1993, as well as in jihad plots to blow up the Lincoln and Holland Tunnels.

Issues to be covered at the convention include: Islamaphobia, Anti-Shariah, Middle Eastern Crisis, the Patriot Act, the National Defense Authorization Act and more. But I am sure they will not cover the fact that our government and military have been infiltrated by radical Islam. Or that the President’s concerns and sympathies so obviously lie with Islam, to the exclusion and persecution/dissing of Christians and especially Jews. Or that Israel is being treated like garbage by Obama and his minions and that Israel most certainly does not have our government’s support in a conflict with Iran or other radical Islamic nations. Radical terrorist plots within our borders by Muslims will also not be covered and neither will be the spread of Shariah law and its implementation in direct conflict with our Constitution. What is evident from this slobbering elevation of Islam at a political convention, is that Islam is as much a political system as it is a “religion.” This all goes to prove that radical Islam is more about power and control than it is about salvation. Each Muslim who attends is being asked to donate between $500 and $10,000. Even M. Zuhdi Jasser M.D., Founder and President of the American Islamic Forum for Democracy, has expressed serious concerns over all this. Man, if this were the movie Miracle on 34th Street and I were the attorney that had to prove that Obama was a Muslim, it would be a cakewalk. Just sayin’.

The DNC is sooo immersed in their belief in multiculturalism that they have welcomed with open arms Islamic extremists that declare that America will fall unless America “accepts the Islamic agenda.” They have asserted that “if only Muslims were clever politically, they could take over the United States and replace its constitutional government with a caliphate.” It’s like those who embraced Stalin or Hitler – the DNC has embraced hate and national suicide. And they feel fine evidently. The DNC has listed the Islamists attending the DNC function as ‘typical’ of the DNC community. If that is true, then the DNC is no longer the party we knew from our parents. It is now a thoroughly subversive enemy from within and a serious threat to our nation. These same ‘typical’ Muslims declare that Islam is a militant religion and that the US will become a caliphate. Not as long as patriots breathe it won’t.

The DNC has embraced radical Islam. But America hasn’t and the DNC has aligned itself with America’s enemies. We must confront the enemies from without AND within if we are to survive as a nation. While Romney and Ryan embrace the traditional roots of our country’s founding, the DNC embraces those who would conquer America. To the DNC: may the odds NEVER be in your favor again. It will be interesting to see if what Barack Obama calls “one of the prettiest sounds on earth at sunset,” the Muslim call to prayer will, ‘insha’Allah,’ end the first day of the kickoff to the Democratic National Convention (DNC) in Charlotte, NC. I would not be surprised. We, the heirs to Liberty, can only hope — God willing — that this year’s DNC will, indeed be their sunset. I could embrace that.
