'Our Poisoned Land' is genuinely searing, factually detailed, fantastically analytical, and even contains delicious sprinkles of dark humour

. It is a poor strategy to use on the part of an aggrieved subject, even if they are objectively correct about falsehoods in a book. Readers love to rush to buy books that are “controversial” and to even panic-buy a title that might be taken off the shelves soon. To that end, the publishers probably secretly enjoyed the response to the excerpt about the EFF’s wild parties in Africa’s richest square mile.

This is, yes, a serious critique of the EFF but the condom party-story is the least important aspect of that EFF critique. For me, the heart of the book is actually a devastating lament of lost opportunities, grand theft and sustained assault on the constitution by mostly ANC politicians and their immoral friends in the private sector.

Before we get to the EFF around page 351, for example, we would already have travelled deep inside the rot at Prasa, the SAPS, the SSA, the Hawks, crime intelligence and the NPA. If the book stopped there, it would still have been worth your money, time and serious engagement. Yet these aspects have not been mentioned in the early public articulation of this new work.

The keys to the promised landPeace between Israel and the Palestinians seems ever more elusive. Israelis have just elected the most right-wing government in their history, and even talk of expelling all Palestinians from Israel is mainstream. On the other side, Iran is arming and prepping Hezbollah, its client government in a collapsed Lebanon, and it’s also readying the Hamas faction for war in Gaza, writes Patrick Bulger.
