The Ruin and Re-Birth of the South African Republic

The ruin of the Republic is almost complete. Twenty years ago many predicted exactly this outcome. But it appeared that there was no alternative, as the country was becoming isolated, a true pariah. Today, there is no electricity and the water supply is unreliable. This is a fabulously rich country, with gold and diamond mines, and a temperate climate. 

The world political order is in process of re-organization. The tension between the USA and the EU, and Russia and its tacit ally - China, is growing and hardening. The incompetent government of the Republic is aligning itself with the anti-American group. The pic shows the American Secretary of State Blinken and her S.A. counterpart, Mrs. Naledi Pandor. 

This situation cannot continue. If it cannot, it will not. As the saying goes, ’n Boer maak ’n plan.  

Or it will follow South Rhodesia into inconsequentiality.
