Best Independent Website that monitors Russian Tank losses in Ukraine War
Oryx is a brilliant independent Dutch website that monitors lots of military losses including the losses of Russian and Ukrainian tanks. They ONLY count vehicles that they can get photos of and can prove that these are the correct vehicles that were destroyed. This link will take you to see the verified Russian tank losses and you can click to see the photos.


[Firstly, this has been dragging on for a long time, so I doubt much will happen. The route from Johannesburg down to the coastal city of Durban is very busy. But it's all handled by Black Taxis. To introduce a train service would massively impact the Black taxis. I can't see them accepting this easily. They would sabotage this. We have a dumb "high speed" rail service in Johannsburg/Pretoria to the main airport. This was built in the time of President Mbeki. It really didn't amount to much and it definitely was NOT a high speed. That little "high speed" railway cost an insane amount of money at the time. Given the distance from Johannesburg to Durban as well as the engineering feats required, I would imagine the cost would be crazily high, given what a bunch of crooks these people are as they give handouts to all their pals. The amount of money would surely be crazy. If this ever goes ahead, I don't think it will amount to much and it could even be sabotaged by spiteful taxi organisations. Jan]

Cape Town: China is reportedly in talks with South African authorities regarding the construction of a high-speed rail linking two of the country’s economic hubs – Johannesburg and Durban.

According to a report by Business Insider, the plan to build the rail network has been in the works for more than a decade.

“China stands ready to work with South Africa to move China-South Africa ties forward towards a deeper level and broader scope,” Xiaodong said.

He said China was “also continuing to connect with South Africa on major projects, such as a Joburg-Durban high-speed railway, "the Chinese ambassador to South Africa, Chen Xiaodong said. He was speaking at the JobFairSA 2022 event last week.

In 2019, the African Union said plans were on track for a high-speed rail network connecting the continent’s borders by 2063, the African Union’s Development Agency said, citing a Voice of America report.

The ambitious multibillion-dollar project aims to ease the movement of goods and people across African borders, but the AU warns that corruption could derail that goal.

Chinese companies have constructed railways across Africa, including one running from Mombasa on the Kenyan coast to Naivasha, a town in the Central Rift Valley, financed by the Export-Import (Exim) Bank of China, at about $4.7 billion, according to South China Morning Post.

China has become South Africa ‘s biggest trade partner and export destination, and South Africa has become China ‘s largest trading partner in Africa. In 2011, bilateral trade hit a record high of more than $45bn, accounting for a quarter of China-Africa trade.

Audio: JEWS108: Jews are MANAGERS (Strategists), Whites are WORKERS, Soldiers, Scientists Tacticians
This is a follow up video from How Jews Think. In this video I discuss the class warfare of the Jews as an upper class with a work outlook of Managment versus whites, who almost universally are some form of High Quality Worker. I look at the different outlooks of these two groups and then examine the resulting clashes between then.
