We are all guilty of underestimating Zuma.  His actions have been bold and unpredictable since the outset - he is adept at not showing his hand. He undoubtedly has,  in mafia terms 'a war time consigliere'.  What we need in response to this, are actions akin to that of Alexander The Great. Expect the worse, prepare for the worse, do whatever it takes to bury him. And when he is buried, EXPECT him to dig himself out and blow him to smithereens IF and WHEN he does. Unfortunately for us, with the way things are playing out...we will be hearing the he he he heh while S.A. continues to crumble around us.
CR is no match for Zuma. People who come by things easily never truly know how to fight to keep them.
