Spoke to the British High Commission today. They are now advising all prospective candidates for the British Military (and Navy!) that if they join up they will not be able to go into combat. Therefore they will not be accepted.
So now they will have to give up SA citizenship and even then will never be able to come back into SA if they have been in combat (this actually includes anybody who has been in a combat zone).
There are approx 1500 South Africans in the UK military - they will all have to give up SA citizenship or come home (to what??)
Not to mention SA Jews in Israel, US dual citizens, Greek dual citizens, etc. I suppose it wont apply to Palistinian dual citizens though!
Is this the thin edge of the wedge?
There is much more to this bill than meets the eye!
Funny though, in terms of this bill, even the SA Military will have to get approval to go into a combat zone?? Duuh.
Democracy = the tyranny of the masses.
