JACOB EN JABBA

Dis ‘n harde maar onomstootlike waarheid: Die wêreld ween oor Nelson Mandela; die wêreld lag vir Jacob Zuma. Ná gister se gedenkdiens in die ENB-stadion word met nog minder respekte van onse Jacob gepraat.

Op buitelanders se Facebook-inskrywings word hy o.m. beskryf as ‘n ‘”jerk”: In Collins (die woordeboek) lees ek “jerk” is veral in Amerika en Kanada ‘n “slang”-woord vir “a person regarded with contempt, esp. a stupid or ignorant person”.

‘n Klipharde oordeel.

Ene Sunni Khalid vra : “Doesn’t Zuma remind you of Jabba the Hutt?”

Fliek nie juis nie – veral nie wetenskapfiksie nie. Moes maar gaan Google om te sien wie die Jabba-karakter Jabba_the_Hutt dan is.

Wikipedia bring die antwoord: “Jabba the Hutt is a fictional character appearing in George Lucas‘s space opera film saga Star Wars. He is depicted as a large, slug-like[2] alien. His appearance has been described by film critic Roger Ebert as “Dickensian”, a cross between a toad and the Cheshire Cat.[3] ”

Ek sit maar ‘n foto’tjie by om met die identifisering te help.
