HIV/AIDS takes a back seat with Obama:YouTube - Spotlight on Aids in South Africa amid World Cup
Quick note analysis/editorial by Marc Aupiais
Below, I'm going to link to an Al Jazeera video, which gives frightening stats (statistics) on HIV/AIDS in Southern Africa.
Why is it important? Because of the pope's statements some time ago: that the west's condom focus with HIV/AIDS was costing lives. I'm not going to go into the statistics that seemingly show a correlation between an increase in condoms and an increase of HIV/AIDS in the African frontier, you can research them independently, nor shall I go into the Ugandan situation, where those age groups where condoms are used as a prevention are those older groups where HIV continues to increase most. Nor shall I focus on quotations by condom supporters, that actually say that the effectiveness of condoms against HIV/AIDS is actually not statistically known.
Instead, I note: under that mad man, George w. Bush, anti-retrovirals and other things took a focus in Africa, and lives were saved, but under Obama, HIV/AIDS is not a major concern. More than that condom advertising, even if it were moral which it isn't, is done in such a manner that they are almost certain to be used incorrectly, and the study by Lancet showing that people educated on use are less likely to use, further agitates the problem. If the west is to do a favour it is through anti-retrovirals.

About me
A deep interest in the law of South Africa, especially our constitutional and common law, guided my studies and continues to influence my current career path. I enjoy engaging in the day to day work of being an attorney, and reading the material contained in our case law.
After graduating Bachelor of Laws (LLB) from the University of the Witwatersrand, where I had enrolled for, and passed, the maximum number of courses ordinarily permitted, I completed, with distinction, the Law Society’s School for Legal Practice full-time 6-month practical legal training course.
I have gained and enjoyed much exposure to the law and to the day to day details of practice, and to extensive litigation work, during my years of practise since my admission to the profession and enrolment as an attorney of the High Court, as well as during my articles of clerkship and, prior to that, when I worked as a student counsellor/paralegal at the Wits Law Clinic – in the final year of law school and during my studies at the School for Legal Practice.
I am passionate about the place of my birth, South Africa, and am proud to be a patriot and citizen of this diverse and beautiful nation. I consider myself a global citizen and keep connections in a number of different nations across the world. Communicating with people from other cultures, I believe, has aided me to have a more open-minded approach in so far as how I see, and interact with, the world.
I believe success requires not just hard work but intelligence, perseverance, humility, integrity, ingenuity, diligence, a strong work ethic, and the courage to request the assistance of those better-versed in a matter, or field, where necessary.
The cultures and legal systems, morals and courtesy systems, languages, intricacies and religions of South Africa and of the nations of the world, are subjects I love to research. I enjoy reading and writing. To keep abreast with important events occurring in other countries, I find my knowledge of other languages, especially French, to be highly useful. I passed Afrikaans at a matric level. I took Zulu from grades 5 to 7. The language I am best acquainted with, is my first language of English, which I speak in everyday life.
I enjoy public speaking and debate, and believe that manners, appropriate dress for an occasion and courtesy are of very great importance. I enjoy hard work and like to throw myself entirely into solving a problem.
