Allegations are flying that Ebrahim Rasool, former Premier of the Western Cape, lost his post because the ANC is concerned about Muslims having too much interest in politics. The allegation, from Rasool himself, was uncovered through Wikileaks.
This one does not pass the smell test. For one thing, Rasool is now the South African Ambassador to the United States. To get that position — a rather plum one, to say the least — he had to pass ANC muster. And Rasool continues to be an ANC member. Oh, and there is exactly zero actual evidence to support such an allegation.
