ONLY IN AFRICA: 400 SEX TAPES: Government official is arrested after more than 400 sex tapes leak
As you can see, not much work gets done in Africa at a high level. I‘ll bet you these aren‘t the only women he slept with either. These were just the important ones.
[This is just enemy nonsense. When I was working on my lecture about race war in southern Africa, I took a bit of a closer look at this battle, which is the greatest battle fought in Africa since WW2. What struck me was the incredible success of South African armour in this battle. South African armour totally SHATTERED the Russian-led Cuban and Angola forces. In fact, one of the incredible features of South African armour was how the RATEL which is NOT A TANK but an APC (armoured personnel carrier), was modified to fight tanks. This vehicle was NEVER designed to fight tanks. But the Ratels made mincemeat of the Russian tanks. There were South African tanks, but they were few in number and were used only for the nastiest fighting. We will revisit things like this much later. But this is just enemy crap. South Africa wiped the floor with the enemy army especially in armour, just literally wiping out all the enemy armour for very few losses. It was a magnificent battle – the greatest battle of South Africa at the time, and definitely something to be incredibly proud of. Never listen to enemy crap. It's like all the crap you read and hear about Stalingrad or the Battle of Kursk, or even Napoleon's Waterloo. They leave out so much of the facts and twist things out of context. Cuito Cuanavale was the SADF's finest hour. Make no mistake. South Africa took on a Russian led coalition and smashed their main forces – and tore the shit out of them. Jan]
The racist South African regime had chosen an area it considered favorable for its adventures in southern Angola, but it was precisely the battle of Cuito Cuanavale that, in the words of Nelson Mandela, "marked the turning point in the struggle to free the continent and our country from the scourge of apartheid"

"South African aviation on the ground and its tanks flying," is the phrase loaded with sarcasm with which Fidel, speaking to a group of diplomats from non-aligned countries gathered in Havana, described what happened on March 23, 1988 in the Angolan locality of Cuito Cuanavale.
The racist South African regime had chosen an area it considered favorable for its adventures in southern Angola, but it was precisely the battle of Cuito Cuanavale that, in the words of Nelson Mandela, "marked the turning point in the struggle to free the continent and our country from the scourge of apartheid."
The Cuban and Angolan forces had resisted, for long weeks, the racists’ constant bombardment, with their G-5 and G-6 long range artillery; while, in silence, they mined the terrain, to turn the advance of the enemy forces into a deadly ambush that, on March 23, trapped the South Africans between the mines and Cuban artillery.
By then, Cuban anti-aircraft gunners had put an end to the impunity of South African aviation, forced to forego their attacks to avoid losing white pilots under fire of blacks and mulattos skilled in the use of Shilkas and Iglas.
On the other side of southern Angola, the advance of Cuban tanks and the positioning of Mig-29s providing an advantage in that area, the racists were obliged to accept UN Resolution 435, which created the conditions for the independence of Namibia and would demoralize, forever, the apartheid regime, which had no use for the nuclear weapons Washington’s had facilitated for them.
Comandante en Jefe Fidel Castro was the brilliant political-military strategist who made possible what international sanctions and speeches had not secured for the peoples of southern Africa.
Mandela made this clear when he visited Cuba and spoke on July 26, 1991, in the city of Matanzas: "The defeat of the racist army in Cuito Cuanavale made it possible for me to be here with you today! Cuito Cuanavale marks a milestone in the history of the struggle for the liberation of Southern Africa! Cuito Cuanavale marks the turning point in the struggle to free the continent and our country from the scourge of apartheid!"
Oliver Tambo, another prestigious anti-apartheid fighter, would define Cuito Cuanavale as "South Africa’s Waterloo," a Waterloo in which the descendants of slaves uprooted from Africa returned to do justice for their own, and did so.
