I agree the article was inflammatory and biased; however I do believe that INVESTING in South Africa is not a prudent maneuver. I just believe that a process of nationalization has begun. I stated I was making no moral judgements. If you want to invest in South Africa, feel free. I do not invest to make a moral point. And even if I did, I do not find the South African Miners particularly to be moral paragons. (I do not invest in tobacco companies because they to me are morally repugnant). BTW I found the train of thought in Newfoundland's post incoherent. I could not follow exactly what was his point.

Fun-da-Mental#1 Re: "Whites usually only hear one side of the story. For instance white farmers' land being confiscated sounds shocking, but most of that land was originally confiscated from blacks, and not a long time ago, but within living memory, when Apartheid started in the 50s and 60s. In many cases the blacks are just trying to take back their own personal property.
