Searle,
My impressions of recent activity by certain senior level people in the South African government reflects those who wish to do good for their people and now see a pathway to accomplish these goals using the Gata/Howe lawsuit.
These government people I reference here have long known the inside story of their history, and the two face double dealing x prez clinSin administration talking the talk and doing a walk backwards.
But as we all know on this thread, its easy to cry manipulation and point a fingle towards those who we know are doing wrong but are smart and careful to give an impression that they have only the best interest of those folks they "touch" by their actions.
What is more than needed, as in required, is two things.
(1) Proof = gata/howe lawsuit identifies criminal activity (2) Guilt Trip by those usa politicians that were not involved in the evil manipulation, but were aware of it and keep quiet. These political cronies and hacks will use their phony pseudo guilt trip to mask their real fears of being held accountable to the fact that they placed their own political re-election ahead of the hurt and pain of a massive scale on a nation. Thus they will proclaim in public a great outrage towards those who become identified by the gata/howe lawsuit as the criminals.
Just speculation, but if i held stock in any South African company i would quickly sell now because once this (non gata) news reaches the usa mainstream media, and they know a story (a.k.a. one that draws eyeballs & increases commercial rates), they will milk it and milk it a.k.a. the rich & powerful living the good life at the expense of the helpless near death youth children of South Africa.
Good v Evil via your 6 o'clock world news broadcast.
Heart wrenching pictures, in color and close up of hurt and suffering.
While the manipulators ski in the Swiss Alps eating food fit for royalty.
Also, if i lived in South Africa and could buy land or property cheap, then i would since if above happens the South Africa will have the wealth of those Middle East nations that have the oil and did not allow those western crooks to keep them in the gutter bleeding while they took the oil and let the nation citizens fight like wild animals among themselves for survival of limited food water medicine.
Searle, you staying there and not leaving may soon look like you made the better choice than those who left and may return later if thing do indeed change for the better x100 times.
"Who has the physical gold..." has great wealth and thusly power.
South Africa is presently a very poor nation receiving help from other world organizations. They have nothing to lose by taking control of all mineal mining activity using the gata/howe lawsuit as reasons to stop foreigners from taking any more of their property. So what if all the mining activity stops, South Africa has been getting very little of the very little money being generated from the price of gold being manipulated low so that those like Barrick can arrive and take control of it all. Let South Africa stop all mining for months or a year, and Good Golly Gee lookie lookie what will happen as the shorts can not cover their shorts and derivatives at any cost, even $5,000.00 since no more physical gold bing mined in South Africa AND AND and those Central Banks that do have some will hold onto it and not dump it onto the markets like been doing. But maybe they could not since where did all that leased out physical gold go to these past years ??? jewerly or or or Middle East nations that see gold as a store of value. Maybe Iraq now has more than usa fort know "should" have.
