🚨🎙️Thierry Henry on why Arsenal didn’t lose the Champions League Final to PSG, they lost it to inconsistency from the officials:
“People are talking about PSG winning the Champions League. Fine. But let’s tell the truth: Arsenal were not beaten by PSG, Arsenal were beaten by inconsistency.
You cannot tell me Kvaratskhelia gets a penalty for contact in one box and then Noni Madueke gets clipped by Nuno Mendes in extra time and suddenly we’re told to play on. Football does not have two different rulebooks. Either contact that impedes an attacker is a foul, or it isn’t.
The Madueke incident is the one that will haunt Arsenal supporters for years. He gets in front, Mendes makes contact, Madueke goes down, the referee says no penalty, VAR says no penalty. If that happens in midfield, it’s a foul every single time. But because it’s in the penalty area in a Champions League Final, everyone becomes brave and wants to ‘let the game flow.’
Then people wonder why fans get frustrated.
And don’t tell me it was one isolated incident. Arsenal had a corner taken away before half-time. Every 50-50 challenge in the second half seemed to go PSG’s way. Arsenal were accused of time-wasting and suddenly every decision felt like a punishment.
What Arsenal fans are asking for isn’t favoritism. It’s consistency.
If PSG’s penalty is a penalty, then Madueke’s is a penalty. You cannot spend all season telling players to get in front of defenders, win the position, draw contact, and then in the biggest game in club football decide the rules have changed.
The sad part is that we’ll spend years talking about PSG lifting the trophy when the real talking point should be why Arsenal were denied the opportunity to win it themselves.
For me, PSG didn’t prove they were the better team. The officials made sure we would never find out.”

“I will never hate Africans for votes,” and emphasizes dignity and humanity by insisting, “I will never deny an African child education or a pregnant woman healthcare in South Africa.”
Now let me tell you about the most brazen heist in South African military history.
This is former Denel CEO Danie Du Toit who sold the SANDF most critical intellectual property.
The media tried to say it was the Guptas but it was not. You were fed lies. It was a few months into Ramaphosa's presidency. The timing was to blame the previous administration but that won't work anymore.
Seven senior Denel officials including—names still being protected by the very system that should jail them—got together and decided to sell our missile intellectual property to a Dubai company.
Not just any missiles. We’re talking about the Mkhonto, Ingwe, and Mokopa missile systems. The crown jewels of South African defence.
They sold the blueprints, the software, the guidance systems—everything. Then, just to add insult to injury, they all resigned from Denel and joined the company in Dubai.
So now, whenever Denel tries to build a missile for the SANDF or another country buying from Denel, these seven ghosts sit in their Dubai air-conditioned offices and collect licensing fees from Denel. For using Denel’s own technology.
They sold our country's defense to a company in Dubai.
Our government does not own its own defense, it was sold.
We are going to expose these 7 ghosts and they have nowhere to hide. Not even Dubai can keep you from our reach.
We see you Danie du Toit and we are coming for you & all your cronies. Watch this space.

Helen Zille Is Missing the Point — And South Africans Know It
South Africans don’t switch off their conscience when issues are “far away.”
Responding to Helen Zille, Ml Sulaimaan Ravat argues that the DA’s and Zille’s position — focus locally, avoid division, and wait for legal processes — doesn’t hold.
Firstly, South Africa is a product of international solidarity — sanctions and global pressure helped end apartheid.
Secondly, moral positions don’t require court rulings. The DA has condemned countries like Russia and Iran without waiting.
Thirdly, this goes beyond terminology. The concern is the DA’s reluctance to hold Israel accountable as the occupying power, often creating a false equivalence between Israelis and Palestinians.
Fourthly, this is not a religious divide. Jews, Christians, and people of no faith have all been vocal in their criticism of Israel.
Finally, South Africans judge both governance and values. Service delivery matters — but so does moral clarity.
That’s why this issue continues to follow the DA.
