SANDF
l Why all these complaints about the navy? The navy was run perfectly competently before Van Riebeek arrived by locals who hadn’t been to sea either.
l When SA entered World War 2 the first thing we did was replace the majority of the senior permanent force officers, as our soldiers’ lives were to valuable to be led by these incompetents. History always repeats itself with leaders who have the attention span of overfed goldfish.
l Can the powers that be in the SANDF tell us how many non-seafaring men head any navy in the rest of the world? It’s like including non-swimmers in our Olympic swimming squad.
l Jane’s Defence analyst’s article on the obvious practical problems of having HIV+ soldiers shows political correctness has overridden common sense.
l It is simply not practical to exclude people who are HIV-positive from the SANDF. They do not have the manpower to replace them. It is an impossible dilemma.
l Do people actually pay for and read the Daily Sun? I always thought it was just there as a cheap toilet paper subsitute, but not as soft.
l What irony. The people who excuse their attacks on the victims of xenophobia say they are doing it because of crime and lack of jobs. They are the ones who are doing crime.
l Bronwynne Jooste, your article was an eye-opener and what some of us suspected. Well done.
l Pahad’s ‘third force’ consists of Tito’s interest rate, Eskom’s electricity, Mbeki’s absence, failed ANC goverment policies and ineffective police.
l If the government lowers my fuel levy I am prepared to lower my top speed to 100km/h. Truly a win-win, including lower imports and safer roads.
l It is now cheaper to smoke your appetite away while you feed your children. I smoke 10 a day so that my animals can eat. How are poor people feeding their pets when we can’t feed ourselves? Please, big business, help us.
l Mboweni may have to raise interest rates again, but a word of advice for him: Don’t stand there again in your pinstripe suit and tell the country with a smirk on your face to eat chicken wings. Many can’t even afford the feet. Next it will be cake, and we all know what happened after that.
l With food prices rising why doesn’t the goverment drop VAT to 10%? That will offset the price increase.
l John Pilger is insulting both Mr Mandela and all South Africans who have embraced change and democracy. Does he think only whites support the Boks?
l As a gesture of repentance, Brian Mujati should donate 80% of his 2008 match fees and bonuses to Tienie Martin’s family.
l Re the animals shot by police when they ‘get in the way’ during raids, would the same happen to curious children? People need to have more respect for animals.
l The police have their priorities mixed up. Violent, dangerous, criminal killers need to be shot nine times, not harmless dogs.
l Ban people from erecting shacks as they please. The Nationalists called it influx control, Sisulu. Take the factories back to the small towns, give incentives and get rid of the idiots running those towns. The Nationalists did it and the ANC destroyed it.
l If the accounts of Richard Sterne’s behaviour are correct, he is an embarrassment and should be ashamed of himself.
l Mo, why should we feel sorry for Schabir? He knew he was guilty from the start and had a chance to reach a settlement with the NPA. Had he done so, he would not have been in jail. He is the architect of his own misfortune.
l How can the SABC expect us to pay for TV licences if it fritters the money away on legal fees for needless and frivolous litigation instead of buying content? It is not the right thing to do.
l Like the story on the pot luck for easy cooking. Would like to see more of these articles on cookware itself as well as energy saving.
l A recipe for disaster: fill the country with unskilled people, and let the skilled leave.
l Dear Sasol employee who was not offered shares as they are reserved for blacks: I remember a time when shares were affordable to most whites and the insurance giants offered particular policies (which were obviously superior to those available to blacks) to whites only, irrespective of whether the blacks were employed by these companies. Very few whites saw the error in those policies.
l An outside energy company to supply electricity? Are they crazy? Foreigners took over Iscor and steel prices are killing small business along with petrol and now electricity.
l How would Mr Mbeki and the ANC have reacted had Mr Mandela been detained just before our 1994 election?
Questions
l If property prices go down by 40% will municipal property valuations also be reduced, and therefore our rates?
l I seem to have ‘lock-key-in-car syndrome’ but Willy of the AA got my keys out in a flash at Kenilworth Centre. Thanks a million.
l Is the Mouille Point idiot who crashed the light blue Maserati a while ago now back in a grey Lamborghini? They drive the same: like total idiots.
l I am so bored with Mbeki I could run head-first into a wall. Is he still alive or has he died and been stuffed? He is like a one-legged man at an arse-kicking competition.
