Dear Editor,
"We must... intensify the struggle to eliminate the remnants of counter-revolution, which include the DA and a loose coalition of those who want to use state power to block the ANC President's ascendancy to the highest office of the land."
These are the chilling utterings of Julius Malema, president of the ANCYL.
Does this man even begin to understand democracy? I think not! If he did he would not be labelling the DA as "counter-revolutionaries". He would recognise that any healthy democracy needs an opposition party that is going to continuously challenge the ruling party when necessary.
I would love to know what he means by "eliminate". Has he found what he thinks is a more acceptable way of saying "kill"? He is also always on about the revolution. For Gods sake man, the "revolution" is over. The ANC has control of the country.
Wake up Malema, the only "struggle" the ANC is involved in is its members struggling to steal as much as possible and then stay out of jail by any means possible.
There are no doubt many good men and women in the ANC but we do not hear their voices above the senseless noise made by the likes of Malema.
Nick,
Randburg
