    Imagine robbing a bank, refusing to come out because you don't want to be arrested, starving to death and the police is the one being blamed

    At least you didnt ignore our comments from your previous post. We told you that those are criminals and refuse to come out because illegal mining is a crime. Also, they are in the country illegally

    If SA doesnt decisively deal with organized crime, it will decend into a failed state. I am a Lesotho national, and many of my countrymen are probably there, but i would never hold up a logical argument as to why they should not be arrested. Its pure criminality and they must be held to account. Organized crime hurts the poor even more than anyone, but we are the first group to virtue signal when we confuse accountability of poor people with prejudice. Why should a poor man be excused from breaking the law?

      One "mlungu" state that's buying up gold as if their life depends on it, is Switzerland (especially Russian gold through Dubai). Though nothing new here. Back in the day, when SA was under sanctions, our gold was shipped off in secret (the Oppenheimers and their masters in the shadows) to Switzerland to be refined. Same with our diamonds. Only ones able to bust the sanctions. Oddly, Switzerland has the second highest sanctions imposed on nations. Only second to the US. Cool huh?!
