Meet South Africa: Hypocritical, Racist, Ignorant, Dangerous and Unhappy

People who live in glass houses, shouldn't throw stones. And if they do, perhaps they deserve the stone that is thrown at them.

Of all the nations of the world, it never occurred to me that South Africa would self-righteously appoint themselves as the voice of humanity for the world, the voice against genocide.

So, allow me to throw my stones - all facts researched to expose the ugliness of South Africa.

South Africa has a long and violent history of political unrest, racial tensions, and struggles for liberation. The country consistently ranks high in the relative number of murder, rape and other crimes.

They have long been allies with Hamas and it takes a certain level of stupidity to think you can go before the International Court of Justice without your own dirty laundry being exposed. When South Africa cleans up its own ugliness, then, maybe, they can consider being the voice for others. For now, the world can only laugh at the pathetic case they had no right to file against a country that has lower crime rates, lower homicide rates, lower rape rates, a higher standard of living.

 So instead of trying to make their country better, apparently they believe attacking others without justification, facts, or logic is better. While Israel consistently ranks in the top 10 (usually in the top 5), South Africa hovers in the mid-40s.

Homicide Rate

According to Wikipedia, "In Israel the homicide rate is relatively low: in 2015, there were 2.4 people killed per 100,000 inhabitants (in Switzerland the number is 0.71, in Russia it is 14.9, in South Africa it is 36/4 (as shown below).

8th highest in the world - Way to go, South Africa!

South Africa is a house built with glass when it comes to hatred, racism, apartheid, high crime and hypocrisy. Someone who lives in a glass home, shouldn't throw stones.
