The title is creating the impression that Cde Kgalema is involved some YL agenda against the current President. It is misleading, divisive and is meant to define the ANC into a Zuma vs Montlante template. We do not need that especially as we approach the centenary. It is unfortunate that Cde VC sees it fit to qualify this heading - it actually needs to be condemned. Sent from my BlackBerry®

Its really improper comrades. If some people choose to do things incorrectly, we can't then follow suite and say "oh well if they are doing it, why can't we"- hence some are facing disciplinary matters Let's allow objectivity and discipline to prevail and not encourage factionalism. Cde Gwede came out strongly against it and acknowledged the severe ramifications it has on the organisation Sent via my BlackBerry from Vodacom - let your email find you! -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] Sender: [email protected] Date: Thu, 29 Sep 2011 06:17:01 To: <[email protected]> Reply-To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [YCLSA Discussion] Kgalema Motlanthe faction smashes KZN structures VC you do not have to be defensive- the article is too divisive- do not let your anti-Malema mindset rule your brain! No one approves of Malema's way of doing things- but leave Kgalema alone!!!!

It may be shocking to you, but in fact the Malema faction of the ANC Youth League is also a Kgalema-for-President faction, which the Deputy President has not discouraged, and which he actively encouraged by appearing at the Youth League National Congress after the re-election of Malema, to pose with him for the cameras. When the rioters were outside Luthuli House on 29th/30th August burning Cde Blade's image, Cde President Zuma's image and the ANC flag, were at the same time brandishing large, expensive pre-printed placards saying "Motlanthe for President", Motlanthe did not distance himself from the display. Kgalema Motlanthe is mentioned in the article of the Business Day. When it comes to the Subject line of the e-mail postings, we are not prisoners of the newspaper sub-editors, Cde Gugu. If the Kgalema thing is an "elephant in the room" for you, that you want to pretend is not there, it's not anybody else's fault. The rest of us have to see it for what it is. We can't go on talking about "anti-Zuma" as if we do not know who is actually being referred to.
