I usually refrain from making much political commentary.

I will say this: SA is a deeply troubled country, but for once I think the ruling government has actually done a good thing by pursuing this.

SA does not really present itself as an earnest or true actor in the sphere oh human rights.

Nation states are often immoral and hypocritical

The outrage from the USA at the invasion of Ukraine, when the invasion of Iraq is a crime of the same magnitude - both dreadful stains on humanity

Most recently the international support for the actions of the IDF whilst condemning Russian actions in Ukraine

SA is just normal in this regard
