Pretoria and… Washington?
I have thought for a while now that the relationship the Bush administration (and perhaps a wider portion of the US political elite) seeks to have with the rest of the world is very similar to the relationship the white-minority regime in South Africa had with the country's non-white citizens during the days of apartheid. I realize this is not a perfect analogy. But there are enough parallels in these two relationships to make it an interesting one to explore.
