		<description>Mosili is a true African leader who does know the true colours and works of the Anglo Saxons and their so called democrats in the mold of the uneducated Khamas who claim to preach democracy yet in reality there are a military junta in their own country. viva Africa</description>

		<description>Mandela and Masire had no idea what they were helping to build in Lesotho when they deployed troops from their countries in 1998 to intervene &quot;to restore democracy and the rule of law&quot;. We have degenerated into a vampire state and the ruling elite and their next-of-kin and cronies are getting the government posts (we have man and wife cabinet positions, in-laws cabinet positions, cousins cabinet positions, husband minister and wife Permanent Secretary), winning big government tenders (roads construction, dam construction, stadia construction), and creating ridiculous benefits for themselves (like buying government Mercedes Benz cars worth a quarter of a million for just 4000 rands, and then selling them at their real value).

The vampires are protecting each other. That is why Mosisili is on Mugabe&#039;s side. Their day of reckoning will come Jeanne, just as Mugabe&#039;s is already in the air. 

What must happen is for stiff laws to be put in place (something equivalent to sharia law) to deal with leaders who so blatantly betray their trusted positions and their people with such impunity. Otherwise Africa is doomed forever because we will just continue to replace, at a very high cost, one vampire with another.

Hooray to Botswana and others like her.</description>

		<description>I share your disappointment and embarrassment - SA&#039;s so-called leader Mbeki has been in bed with Mugabe for the longest time, to my shame.  You have to ask yourselves what on earth Mbeki, Mosisili and others are thinking.  Do they really think that there will not be a day of reckoning for them??</description>

		<description>What, indeed, gives? The statement by Mr Mosisili serves to confirm that he and other leaders in the region (outside Botswana and Zambia) swim in the same pool as Mugabe. This we know: time is our ultimate weapon - though at times you would do with instant answers.</description>
