  1. I’m amazed how many fools cannot understand that ambassadors are trained to do the exact opposite of what this idiot did.

    Whatever your crappy opinion is about the US it’s best to keep it to yourself when you are an ambassador being hosted by that country.

    Seriously people how hateful and Ignorant are you all??

    How about we start having ambassadors call out France’s racial issues like its ghettos we’ll have US ambassador do exactly what this guy did but to the French people and see how that works out.

  2. SA has so many problems of its own I don’t think having a diplomat who is antagonistic towards the country he is sent to getting removed is all that special. You send typically send someone who can work with the other country amicably.

  3. Thank you, Ambassador Rasool for speaking truth to power!!! SOUTH AFRICA WILL NOT BE BULLIED……In the current Trump regime, BLESSED IS HE WHO IS EXPELLED for calling out THE REGIME'S "white supremacy"
