So sad. It was once such a beautiful country, so full of promise.
I remember when I was at school in around 1985, a South African schoolboy came and spoke at our school in Sydney.
He described the situation of apartheid as like having a magnificent lion in a cage.
It really shouldn't be in a cage, but if you let it out it will eat you.

Well they let it out and now it is eating them and in the process destroying the country. Eventually the lion will die because there will be nothing left to eat!

While it is not politically correct to say so, it would have been far better for all concerned to keep the lion in the cage.
