        They knew this was coming. Why didn’t they build desalination plants while there was time?

        Waiting for UN/international money to fix their problem. Just liked the schools in the U.S. are waiting for the federal government to address their local safety issues.

        So the Israelis with the exact same problem find a way to provide water for both plants and humans but south Africa must still think it's still deepest, darkest, primitive africa ruled by tribes.. which is it?

        It seems that Ramaphosa’s solution will be to confiscate the land and businesses of the remaining white farmers in South Africa...So far as I am aware, this plan has not yet been discussed on TV nor has it appeared in The Press generally...
