I have friends from South Africa. They said there is a lot tension there right now and it's quite dangerous. My friends family has held at gun point and she said that whenever there is a red light, a gang of guys come and smash your car window and hold a gun out, telling you to take off your jewelery and give whatever money you have, then they kicked them out of the car and drove off with it. Apparently a lot of fair skinned people are being attacked there right now. Otherwise, from what I have seen, places like Durban, Johanessburg and Cape Town ..look awesome.

Well it depends on what kind of job you want to get in the fbi a secretary maybe yes an fbi agent probably not. It is extremely hard to get a job as an FBI agent being from south africa is gonna hurt your chances but it also may help your chances depending on what kind of job you are trying to get. Also you may want to go to a graduate school in America it will make you resume look better.

NO - the rule is that to work for a US government agency you must be a US citizen

No Never will happen

No, you need to be an US citizen to work for the FBI. But there is bound to be a South African equivalent you can join. Working abroad is much more complicated than working at home.
5 :
FBI requires US citizenship and typically Top secret security clearance.Technically I don't see how it is possible.

they say whites are gods
2 :
The main idea they taught us in the lower grades ( 6-9) is that the "whites were evil/bad". They teach us only out of the perspective of the black people too, so it is more a campaign to keep the youth ignorant and telling us that our forefathers did nothing good, but everything they have now, white people had to plan and build throughout all the hardships(Boer wars, WW1, WW2 and of course the Bush war).
