South Africa From God to Mortal

Smoke billows from burning houses in the Valley of a Thousand Hills in Natal province, where at least 39 die in clashes among feuding Zulus. In the town of Welkom in the Orange Free State, a black mob surrounds a minibus, hacks to death the six black occupants and sets fire to the vehicle. In the southern Transvaal township of Sebokeng, police open fire on a crowd of 50,000 people protesting high rents, killing perhaps eleven. In Katlehong, east of Johannesburg, war erupts among black taxi drivers, leaving at least 25 dead and scores injured.

Is this the new South Africa...
