Minister Muthambi's communicates a sad state of affairs - a government spokesperson who unashamedly plays the race card in a rear-guard face-saving action of a minority group of party beneficiaries in the same way the minority National Party leadership kept on doing it...despite the overwhelming evidence of an immoral / unethical foundation on which the leadership "protected" the country against a "misled" enemy. The big differences here: (1) both the "protector" and the "enemy" has just swopped colours and (2) that the present political leadership has outstripped the Apartheid government in self-enrichment schemes by an unimaginable margin! This article's total lack of introspection is scary and smacks of the Apartheid government's denial of what common sense / international community & the better inform populace has been asking in a growing wave of discontent. It is SO sad that the present government can ride a "wit gevaar" ticket in the same manner as the NP did with "rooi gevaar"!
