as far as the anc is concerned, anc is the state. perhaps most shameless with those anc defenders who argued that criticism of the anc amounted to the criticism of the majority rule. well times have changed. as it has always been, to get a flavor of the political scene in south africa today, please join me in watching a very short video from parliamentary proceedings in the south african parliament earlier this year. . >> we have indeed, allowed one powerful man get away with far too much for far too long. members, this honorable man is in our presence here today. honorable president in these very chambers, just five days ago, you broke parliament. please understand honorable president, when i use the term honorable, i do it out of respect for the traditions and conventions of this house. but please don't take it literally. for you, honorable president, are not an honorable man. you are a broken man presiding of a broken society. [ applause ] so you're willing to break every democratic institution to try and fix the legal predicament

i think the anc goes below 50. the likely partner is the radical left, together they have a constitutional majority, which is something that anc has not had since 2004. >> i see. the other question if i may. was a big one. namely what -- i was very surprised in your scenario you did not include the factor of the alliance of nations. what bricks means to me is vast increases in infrastructure development. now, if you factor in south africa not only being a member, but what the bank coming into effect in a matter of months, and africa being somewhat of a priority for brks as i understand it, how does that affect this picture? >> in terms -- it looks like a brick in absolute terms somewhat insignificant. i do think that goes into it. i think a lot of what flows into south africa, moverring into the narrow road scenario, is diplomatic pressure of sorts out of china that skis the enormous advantage to themselves in changing what would otherwise be a formative precedent, shaping the evolution of high-growth economies acro

probably likely to make some gains in major municipalities in the next local election, but overall, the ancs not really vented by this. the opposition leaders have not been able to capitalize on this effectively enough. in fact, the president mocked opposition leaders in parliament yesterday, mocking their pronunciation of the name of his private resident and basically seemed very very comfortable perhaps knowing what was to come from the policeman. >> in which case do you think the president will now feel emboldened by this decision. >> i hi so. very much so, in fact, the policeman have said recommended that more of taxpayers money be spent to complete the upgrades that are not yet completed. which, again is an element of this report. so the president does seem to be very very emboldened, very brazen and totally unphased by any demands. repeated demands both in parliament and outside for him to pay back the money. >> good to talk to you joining us there from johannesburg, thank you for your time. >> nigeria's new president will be sworn in on friday, in the capitol of but as reports once i

the army nurse corps, the anc, they served also. i put some of the other military women in here during world war ii. the african-american nurses that served -- they only served in african-american units because remember, they were segregated. i put this in because at first it was the women's army auxiliary corps, waac, and then it went to the wac, the women's army corps. but remember the auxiliary voluntary, volunteers -- does that tell you anything about what they expected from these women? basically, they were expected not to be permanent. they were expected to eventually go home. they were paid in the military. they got wages. that is a very important part of the whole thing because many of them liked earning those wages. it's like there had to be an character and u.s. citizens. they had height and weight and age requirements, too. they could have children, but they had to be under 14 years of age, but everybody came together to win the war. you have the military. rita hayworth is here because you have the canteens and everybody t

the likely coalition for me is that the anc loses its absolute majority, so it loses another 10 or 11 percentage points moves to just below 50. that is attrition both from the marxist left and from the liberal right of the party. if through that process of attrition the young marxists can gather another ten percentage points, then the likely coalition is former african national congress with former young marxists, and that completes a circle because the young marxist left is former youth wing of african national congress that was expelled from the party recently in the hope that like other splinters that have gone before it it would find life in the wilderness very difficult. it has thrived uh-uh uh-uh through some marketing genius and exploitation of the unmet expectations for young people. i think anc goes below 50, the likely partner is the radical left. together they have a constitutional majority which is something that anc hasn't had since 2004. >> the other question if i may it was a big one namely what -- i was surprised in your scenarios you did not include the factor of the

anthrax changes the way that all bacteria einvolves over time, i don't want to suggest this has suddenly become anc that is resistant to radiation, but it is something they have to look at, the suspicion here is this was a procedure roar of some sort. some kind of equipment didn't work obviously now the question is what steps are missing in this process. there obviously was not a step in before it was shipped out it was double checked to make sure it was truly dead that kind of step is crucial. no uh that we have seen these tiny. as but still possibly living anthrax was mailed all over the world. >> jake, that you have. sean coffman is a bio security consultant, he was a member of the response team. during the 2001 anthrax attacks he is in birmingham, so sean, the pentagon said today that human error was probably not a factor, they also said it was a failure probably of failure in the technical process. how can can that be? >> i don't know that i am going to agree that human error was not a factor. there is a serb protocol that folks follow to make sure that anthrax in a spore form isn't activated.
