Judge Albie Sachs (S. Africa) on Tavis Smiley Show. Amazing
Talks about how S. Africa is not afraid to look at international laws for guidance (US will not even consider international laws for any guidance). When you hear this show, it makes you ashamed to be living under this Bushbot regime.

1. This has been a wonderful discussion. It appears that S. Africa
after Apratheid is much more civil than America after the Civil War.

2. Haven't heard the show so I can't really comment...
...but maybe after decades of being shunned by the rest of the world when it was an apartheid state, South Africa especially values the good will of the rest of the world and international law.

Maybe it will take some of that kind of shunning for America to evolve into a a more internationally civil nation?
