Long live Alliance long live!
The strategy of Divide and Rule was defeated under apartheid. It can't be resurrected in a democracy! Socialism is the future. Build it now! From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of sabelo gina Sent: 21 June 2010 08:01 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [YCLSA Discussion] Please comment on this article Dear Comrades, I agree with Dominic that the article was reactionary and opportunistic from Mr Mbeki. This is the same Mr Mbeki who has written a book on the mining industry in South Africa few months ago. I am ashamed that Mr Mbeki once worked for COSATU, and yet he says that the time is ripe for COSATU to leave the Alliance. I am not surprised when Nqaba defends Mr Mbeki and Rossouw because they are raising what Cope tried to do and failed to chase COSATU from the ANC with assertions like 'I did not join the struggle to be poor", we stayed in the midst of that provocation. COSATU is committed to an alternative economic system and therefore I do not think that its existence is about opportunistically weighting the opportunities and timing for forming a political party. We are far ahead of the likes of Morgan from Zimbabwe who when he saw the possibility of entering parliament tried to form a political party which has not been able to carry the aspirations of workers of Zimbabwe even as a prime minister in the Zimbabwe government. We will not leave the alliance, we will help the alliance and the ANC to rid itself of people who have forgotten why we fought for freedom in the first place.

The article says: "These companies played a pivotal role in the transition from Afrikaner nationalist rule to African nationalist rule," and there is more in that spirit. This is a return to the falsification of history whereby the big bourgeoisie is held to have been the agent of revolutionary change in South Africa. It leads to the proposal of the big bourgeoisie as a "motive force" and part of the alliance. This is what I am calling reaction.
