Mugabe, Zuma plummet white power into crisis

With veteran nationalist and liberator of South Africa Nelson Mandela gone, the structures of black and white balance of eco-political power are likely to weigh heavily in favor of black people's economic emancipation. Mandela seemed to have been fanning off the heat of the already kindling flames of the black eco-political freedom revolution through his tolerable policy to protect white eco-political supremacy against the gruesome bedrock of black eco-political marginalization.

Though we live in turbulent times, it is nevertheless not often that history moves visibly before us. The sense of historical change is felt only when there occurs a lurch in the balance of power on a scale large enough to upset particular eco-political systems for good.

Mugabe and Zuma's boycotting of the EU-AU Summit is a strong diplomatic signal announcing the initial stages of the collapse of white power in Africa and an opening up of the wave-way for the emancipation of the black peoples, a move which will in the long run bring a massive shift in the balance of eco-political forces in the African continent.
From what was seemingly an all-powerful and compact EU-SA concerted white eco-political domination there now emerges a new picture of a thoroughly dislocated power structure. Zuma's utterances to the EU show a huge paradigm shift in granite South Africa's foreign policy with the western block.

Consequently, Mugabe's political influence is gradually gathering momentum with early signs evinced in Zuma' decision to let down the western economic block. The effects of Mugabe's political ideologies have reached a convergence zone and are fast forming dew and warming the day to day ordering of African politics.
The two super-powers of Africa south of the Equator, Zim and SA's main thrust of the offensive form a carefully dovetailed plan to disintegrate white power in a international summit that has been traditionally buttressed by covert western political arrangements. Prospect for such a political furore in the EU-AU link looked dangerously promising, and is likely to pose a serious problem for the AU and even more for Mugabe and Zuma economies.

Of particular importance in the immediate EU-Zim/SA relations is the fact that eco-political events in the former Mandela are over and the ushering in of a new era is drastically shifting the order of African-Western eco-politics from the status quo thus birthing into existence what historians call ‘the chain of historical causation.' It means that the new eco-political dispensation visiting us is likely to loose the teeth of the jaws of white eco-political power in Africa.
Historical records will show that the EU-SA movement by Zuma received major impetus from Mugabe's stalwart eco- political groove which has seen thousands of poor landless blacks in Zimbabwe transformed into landlords through the controversial land reform and indigenization programs.

As I write I am conscious of moving on a escalator with a rapidly changing scenario around us, yet I am convinced that whatever current behind closed door negotiations may produce for Zim/SA, and other AU states, the political stance taken by Mugabe and Zuma will remain in a condition of conflict with the western block until all the white regimes, especially that of SA have fallen apart.

That particular task still remains especially difficult since the whites in SA regard themselves as indigenous, having no metropole to retreat to, and since the Western imperialist interests still regard especially SA as the bastion of western economic, political and military interests in the region as a whole.

The boycotting of Zuma and his political utterances depict a gloomy picture for the EU and has certainly put the block into a quandary. It is also difficult for the EU to impose sanctions on SA as it is presently considered the ‘fields of Europe.'
It is SA that the west has tasked with felling the Mugabe regime, as pressure on the Zuma administration by the west has been aimed at pushing Mugabe out, a bargain which the EU had placed on the summit conference table in order to ensure rapid eco-political change in Zimbabwe.

The EU block is said to have lured some stray AU member states to bargain in the Zim-Fix political deal, a move which would cause the western block to bring investments into the lured states and relaxed immigration linkages.
The future of SA is on Europe's table and the west was putting pressure on SA to handle the issue of South African blacks to be conducted in ministerial parlors rather than on the battlefield. But with Zuma's new move the music is likely to change. This is the advent of a black war against white power and the west is quite aware of that.

As long as the battle is on the negotiating table there is no way that SA will ever be owned by its black masses. If there is ever going to be meaningful eco-political change in SA the strategy must shift from the table to the field. It is in the farms, the mines and the game reserves that the whites have stolen the eco-political will of the South African masses.
We must not sing freedom before is has fully come. Freedom is yet to come. I personally do not ratify present SA as a independent state when I view it from the perspective of economic freedom for the black peoples. Most of SA's social policies are designed to create future economic and political spell for the blacks. The whites have tailor-made SA policies in a way that seems good to the blacks but is in fact a time-bomb that is only at the mercy of white power.

The characterization of the system of white domination in South Africa remains elusive for Africa as a whole. Whites are here for the crude notion of conquest as their primary determinant, to race prejudice, to simplistic propositions about capitalistic class exploitation, and to a modification of the internal colonialism thesis.

White power manipulates the economy the same way a soldier manipulates his gun for battle. In days gone by the use of chartered companies was a cheap form of imperialist expansion since the expense of control and administration was borne not by the government but by the company. That system still exists in SA. In Zimbabwe before the land reform and indigenization programs the Zim government was borne by the white farmers and a few chartered companies such as Standard Chartered, Barclays, Meikles, Anglo America etc. It is quite clear that Mugabe succeeded while Mandela failed to destabilize the same in SA. It was never F.W De Clerk who made jobs and cleared the mess in SA but the whites through their chartered companies. SA must wake up and realize that the same whites with chartered companies have deliberately stopped making jobs and cleaning waste in SA in order to paint black power black and make Africans develop a condition of inherent bad faith in their own black capabilities to own mines, farms, game reserves and let alone chart their own economic and political destiny.

 While making political utterances ahead of the May 7 general elections, Julius Malema of EFF must see beyond the political horizon that it is not the black vote that is destabilizing SA today. The people messing SA are the silent whites who own chartered companies, fisheries, farms, mines and game reserves in SA. They are the ones beating the drums eco-political change in present day SA. In such a scenario the tendency is that the suffering black masses will be hoodwinked into thinking that white power is better than black power. What the blacks do not know is that it is their land the whites have colonized. And it is through the exploitation of black peoples' natural resources that the whites are using to root their power and simultaneously keep blacks underdeveloped.

A survey called ‘Top Companies' shows that the economic power of the state sector is in a direct relation to the private sector in SA. Some key companies include, Barclays Bank, Standard Bank, Anglo American, De Beers Consolidated, United Building Society, Charter Consolidated, SA Mutual, SA Permanent, Consolidated Gold, Vodacom, Eskom etc.
Mugabe and Zuma's stance on the issue of the EU-AU Summit continue to reveal internationally that black aspirations cannot be suppressed forever. Even the staunchest white supremacists in this world can now clearly see that.
