Worrying signs from South Africa

Julius Malema, the leader of the opposition party in South Africa, "Economic Freedom Fighters", says his party will not hesitate to use violence if the ruling party (ANC) uses violence against them. There have been earlier incidents in Johannesburg and Gauteng, where the government has responded with violence from calls to discussions from the opposition party. To understand the situation clearer, Malema says that his party are not really fighting ANC or president Zuma (who is black). Instead they are fighting "the white monopoly capital". The fact that the opposition leader openly announces that his group are willing to revolt the regime is worrisome.
