    PETER BRUCE | Picking the wrong Jewish target for anti-Israel anger (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    How depressing to hear reports that pro-Palestinian protesters have returned to picket outside the stores of Cape Union Mart owner Philip Krawitz despite losing comprehensively in the Western Cape High Court on September 4 in a case Krawitz had brought as he sought to save his business. The protests against Cape Union Mart began in 2023 as Israeli retaliation in Gaza against Hamas for its murderous attack into Israel was reaching an early peak. Krawitz sucked it up until earlier this year, when

    PETER BRUCE | November 4 likely to fall short as a day of destiny (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    As the local government elections on November 4 rumble towards us, I can’t help wondering whether we are not getting a little carried away with the notion that they will somehow be a “defining” moment for the country. Of course, politicians will think that, because it is going to be defining for them. But for the country? I’m not convinced. For us, the big story is going to be the general elections in 2029.

    PETER BRUCE | With a government like ours, the ‘middle power’ boat will pass us by (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney is fast becoming the leader of what used to be the “Free World”. This past week he compounded his growing stature by telling US President Donald Trump to go suck, abruptly ending trade talks and possibly starting a trade war with the world’s biggest economy and its president, an unhinged and corrupt madman. Carney is a sophisticated man, a former governor of both the Bank of Canada and the Bank of England. He came into office directly as a result of Trump insu

    PETER BRUCE | Let parliament choose new NPA, Idac chiefs (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Critical tone · English

    Read excerpt

    I watched TV news footage on Friday of the appearance in the Pretoria magistrate’s court of much of the leadership of the South African Police Service’s crime intelligence division with some joy. The group were charged with fraud and corruption by the National Prosecuting Authority (NPA) in June last year after its Investigating Directorate Against Corruption (Idac) decided that they had fraudulently hired a young woman, Dineo Mokwele, from BMW to a highly technical job and made her a brigadier.

    PETER BRUCE | The folly of South Africa’s industrial hallucination (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Critical tone · English

    Read excerpt

    One definition of madness is doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result. The old adage has never been more true than when you try to understand President Cyril Ramaphosa’s obsession with industrial policy. It’s as if manufacturing were the beginning and end of all measures of economic success. The ANC has been banging the same drum since almost the moment it came to power in 1994. And just this week the president was at it again, whistling into the wind. He told a breakf
