Mmm ..  think a nay will do .. not that I'm prejudiced or influenced by  a Judeo christian upbringing  and the promised land theory ( another  ' inspired " man written book of history that can be used to suit agenda) and after watching the yootube again , I will just stick to my original  belief  of that I think both sides are not entirely  in the right  and both are   in the wrong  for all the fighting and loss of life  ... and yes dont want mind blown open , got enough  playing out here on the tip of africa  that is  mindblowing  and  very relevant to  our  secure future ...  A neighbouring country  on point of collapse ... a  corrupt clown who wants to become our next leader and drag this  beautiful country down ... and we can play the same theme .. who does this country belong to ??  the  settlers or  the indiginous folk ?? am I a settler  or indigenous after all I was born here ?? who is indiginous ,,, 2nd generation 3rd  4th ? are aliens those  that  are here 1st time .??   are you  dark enough  for that cushy job  or a wad of free  or massively discounted  shares in a company ,,  african enough to  deserve a  place in the sun ?? too light skinned , too much mixed blood ??   .  whats next ?  the old  Nat  pencil test  in reverse  next on the  list of criteria ? .. accused of being eurocentric/western  when it suits the agenda  meanwhile  the luxuries and lifestyle  of euro/western  are avidly pursued ?? 
more likely to pop a blood vessel than blow the mind ... 
My belief is that  all prejudices put aside , there is a place in the sun for all providing  they contributing to the wellbeing and stability of a country .
Sigh ............

Hi Sandy,
              Thanks for that obviously heart-felt post. Your last two lines said it all.
I could not agree more.
Regards,
Bob.

Hi Sandy,
              Mark Tilbury? Very familiar name but my aging grey cells must be failing me, can't recall a face. Ask him for a few more details so that I can place him e.g. time in O'mund etc.
Thanks,
Bob.

Nope not from O,mund  he's my nieces husband ( daughter of  my brother Peter )  he went to NZ  for  about 7 months  a few years ago  to try secure a job ,, got relatives there  and relevant qualifications  but it all came to naught ,,  so he  had to come back  to SA ...

Hi Sandy,
             Mark Tilbury, very familiar but still can't fit a face to the name. I think I'll go for a brain cell checkup.
Regards,
Bob.
