101214tt 10 12 14 14 Dec 2010 The Times Dewani case - Will a face mask work to gag Bheki Cele?
Every time the national police commissioner, General Bheki Cele opens his mouth, he seems to put his foot into it. Not only is he acting like police, he acts as judge, as well. His 'monkey jibe' comments about the prime suspect have certainly not helped the National Prosecuting Authority (NPA) in their case. Zapiro's cartoon suggests a face mask to gag his mouth as part of the SAPS murder investigation kit. However, the cartoon says that so far it has n't worked!

101212st 10 12 12 12 Dec 2010 Sunday Times Back to Boerassic Park - a continued misguided sense of racial superiority?
Race bias is rearing its ugly head again. Based on their own sense of racial superiority, two prominent Afrikaaners in the public eye came out with derogatory statements. On his Facebook page, pop singer Steve Hofmeyr crudely blames the 'propaganda of entitlement among black people' for the brutal murder of a Free state family. In answer to a question from a journalist, winner of the 2010 K Sello Duiker Memorial Literary award, Annelie Botes says that she does n't like black people because she feels threatened by them.
Both these incidents have prompted a debate mainly amongst white South Africans some pro and some critical of the statements and is the basis of Zapiro's cartoon. 'Live from Boerassic Park' (Jurassic Park) was a cabaret show put on by Pieter Dirk Uys back in 1997.

Zapiro's cartoon shows a comic strip of an alternative peace prize - China's New Confucius Peace Prize. The Chinese political leaders are not happy with this year's selection for the Nobel Peace Price. In fact, Liu Xiaobo will not be present to receive the prestigious award and make the customary acceptance speech. The Nobel Prize Committee has decided to leave an empty chair as a symbol for the imprisoned Nobel Prize winner. The Committee feels that China should combine economic development with political reforms. China, on the other hand, feel that the selection was interference in their internal affairs. According to the Chines authorities, Liu, a professor of literature and a human rights activist, is a common criminal. He is serving an 11-year sentence in a Chinese prison for incitement. Not even his wife may attend the ceremony in Oslo.

Find a good quote from confucius
Try this: What you do not want done to yourself do not do to others - Shut up
How about : When justice is arbitrary the people do not know how to move hand and foot - Shut up
To see what is right and not to do ...
An oppressive government is more to be feared than a tiger
or something weird like Govern a great nation like as you would fry a small fish
