I usually refrain from making much political commentary.

I will say this: SA is a deeply troubled country, but for once I think the ruling government has actually done a good thing by pursuing this.

This is the same government that was just months prior going to quit the ICC so they could host Putin. They have no credibility, and frankly, no fucking power for most of the day. Utterly failed state.
