Well, Mr Weaver, it is surely too late to join the ECC now, not after 911. Maybe in a parallel dimension somewhere, another life, one in which you didn’t support the apartheid military-industrial complex? There is no going back now, no second chance to undo the damage — to make the right decision, to oppose apartheid, to cross the rubicon and to take a path which you never had the guts take. No, Tony, you are a disgrace to the memory of all those who died because of apartheid, all those who suffered in detention or at the hands of apartheid torturers. The fact that you are able to get away with writing your claptrap on a regular basis for the Cape Times is a testimony to the outright prejudice and wilful ignorance of the publishers — INM continue to maintain that having a military record is preferably to a dishonerable discharge.*
