Future of White South Africans?

STOCKHOLM, Sweden – As former South Africa President Nelson Mandela remains hospitalized and reportedly in serious condition, questions about the future of increasingly marginalized European-descent South Africans are edging into international headlines.

Recent developments on multiple fronts are striking fear into the hearts of many Afrikaners, descendants of primarily northern Europeans who began arriving in South Africa three to four centuries ago.

From legally mandated race-based economic discrimination against whites to the thousands of farm murders targeting Boers across the nation, the problems are only getting worse. Poverty and unrest are spreading quickly as well.

Genocide

The world’s most prominent expert on genocide, President Dr. Gregory Stanton of Genocide Watch, already warned last year that the Afrikaner population could be on the verge of a government-linked extermination campaign.

During a fact-finding mission to South Africa, Stanton, who helped fight against apartheid, found evidence implicating the ruling African National Congress (ANC)-South African Communist Party (SACP) government in a plot to eradicate whites as part of a scheme to foist Marxist tyranny on the nation.

In fact, after the investigation, WND reported that Genocide Watch raised its alert level on South Africa to stage 6 out of 8 – the planning and preparation phase of the extermination process.

“There is thus strong circumstantial evidence of government support for the campaign of forced displacement and atrocities against white farmers and their families,” Stanton said in the Genocide Watch report, adding that the end goal was communist tyranny. “There is direct evidence of [South African] government incitement to genocide.”

As WND also reported, South African President Jacob Zuma routinely sings racist songs calling for the murder of whites.

Former ANC Youth Leader Julius Malema, a virulently racist self-styled communist with a significant following, is now forming a new political party to “fight white males,” South African media reported this week.

Malema’s alliance will also seek to expropriate white-owned property without compensation, nationalize key industries and force whites to “behave in a manner that says they regret their conduct.”

Economic discrimination

Meanwhile, on the economic front, authorities are cracking down on the white minority as well.

Through a controversial program known as Black Economic Empowerment (BEE), the government has instituted a race-based employment regime specifically targeting whites.

Critics, even among prominent blacks, say the results of BEE have been disastrous.

Among the myriad problems associated with the race-based employment system: mass emigration of skilled workers contributing to “brain drain,” soaring poverty rates among whites, chaos for businesses and more.

Hundreds of thousands of economically excluded Afrikaners now live in squalid squatter camps throughout South Africa without so much as running water or electricity.

Hundreds of thousands more have fled to Western nations seeking a better life.

“The advent of black rule has been devastating for whole groups of whites, even highly educated ones,” Dan Roodt of the Pro-Afrikaans Action Group, PRAAG, told WND.

Among those groups, he said, are European-descent South Africans from virtually every economic field – especially people with cultural skills, bank workers, and government employees.

“Some of these people have definitely ended up on skid row,” Roodt added, pointing to the racist affirmative action policies as the cause.

“I definitely blame the system of reverse discrimination or anti-white racism for white poverty,” the author and prominent activist continued.

“Almost all whites are educated, literate and generally hard-working, so they should not be poor,” he said. “The system makes them poor by denying them opportunities and expecting whites to be superhuman and to make money out of thin air.”

Roodt explained that once people are excluded from the economic life of a country, they “spiral downwards and lose everything,” making it increasingly difficult to re-enter society in the future.

“It makes me both sad and very angry to witness these scenes of whites living in third-world squalor while we have all the skills to employ them, but the system prevents us from doing so,” he added.

The corruption is out of control, too, Roodt explained, saying it was contributing to the growing economic problems facing the nation.

“South Africa’s ANC government is so corrupt that it is sometimes hard to distinguish between the ruling party and organized crime,” he said.

Media attention

Since the fall of apartheid in 1994 – when the Western establishment and Soviet powers finally succeeded in forcing the anti-communist, white-dominated government to relinquish power – the international press, which played a key role in the process, has been largely silent.

After almost two decades of ignoring the issues, however, the world media is starting to take notice – albeit slowly.

The British state-funded BBC, for example, featured a recent article headlined “Do white people have a future in South Africa?”

“The answer, as with so many similar existential questions, is ‘Yes – but…’,” reported BBC News World Affairs Editor John Simpson after exploring the problems.

While acknowledging that whites still own much of the nation’s wealth, Simpson concluded that only certain segments of the European minority have a genuine future in South Africa.

“Working-class white people, most of them Afrikaans-speakers, are going through an intense crisis,” the BBC noted.

“Those who fit in and succeed will certainly have a future,” the report stated. “As for the rest, there are no guarantees whatsoever.”

ANC reaction

A spokesman for the ANC could not be reached for comment by WND despite repeated attempts.

However, even though many experts said the BBC article barely scratched the surface, the reaction from the ruling ANC was to demonize the reporter and his employer, saying the BBC was suffering from an “apartheid hangover.”

“South Africa has never been in a situation where whites have been singled out and persecuted,” ANC spokesperson Keith Khoza was quoted as saying in South African media reports.

He also pointed out that crime and poverty affect all South Africans, which is true, though few dispute the fact that white farmers have been victimized in numbers all out of proportion even when compared with the rest of South Africa’s crime-ridden society.

“The BBC is living in their own world with their racist tendencies where they wish to undermine the government of South Africa because it is largely a black government,” the spokesman claimed.

“This isn’t just an attack on the government of South Africa and the ANC, it’s an attack on South Africa as a whole,” he concluded.

Farm murders

In a development that was considered surprising by analysts and South African exiles who spoke with WND, the BBC also touched on the ongoing farm murders that have claimed as many as 10 percent of the nation’s European-descent farmers.

“Virtually every week the press here report the murders of white farmers, though you will not hear much about it in the media outside South Africa,” the report said. “In South Africa you are twice as likely to be murdered if you are a white farmer than if you are a police officer – and the police here have a particularly dangerous life. The killings of farmers are often particularly brutal.”

As WND also reported last year, authorities have done little about the problem other than try to conceal it from the world.

“The government has so far been unwilling to make solving and preventing these murders a priority,” the BBC report continued.

Indeed, even keeping an accurate count has been made all-but impossible by the ANC-SACP government, which regularly downplays the vicious farm murders and even stopped tracking useful statistics that would reveal the true scope of the problem.

Many of the victims, often children and babies, are brutally tortured before being killed.

The horrors have included drowning infants in boiling water, raping children, disemboweling whole families, dragging victims for miles behind a vehicle and other unimaginable atrocities.

Experts say the goal is to terrorize and eventually eliminate white farmers, with Genocide Watch’s Stanton and numerous other convinced that the ultimate aim is to establish communist tyranny.

With a population of around 5 million, whites today make up less than 10 percent of the population, down from above 20 percent a century ago.

Since the fall of apartheid in 1994, an estimated half-a-million have emigrated. Countless more would go if they could.

Land redistribution

In a separate BBC report, the state-funded news organization also documented the results of the South African government’s highly controversial land-redistribution policies.

The government admitted that 90 percent of farms it had “redistributed” from whites who farmed the land for generations to blacks with little knowledge of farming – almost 25,000 square miles of land so far – are now “failing.”

“The farms – which were active accruing revenue for the state – were handed over to people, and more than 90 percent of those are not functional,” Land Reform Minister Gugile Nkwinti conceded.

“They are not productive, and therefore the state loses the revenue,” Nkwinti continued. “We cannot afford to go on like that… No country can afford that.”

While the government plan was to redistribute a full third of white-owned land to blacks by 2014, there are now discussions about potentially trying to return some of the farms to their former owners in a bid to keep the tax revenues flowing.

In neighboring Zimbabwe, formerly known as Rhodesia, Marxist dictator and ANC ally Robert Mugabe violently expelled much of the population of white farmers. The land was then largely “redistributed” to cronies who knew nothing about farming.

Before that, the country was known as the “breadbasket” of Africa thanks to its massive agricultural export industry.

Today, Zimbabweans are starving as the nation increasingly depends on international food aid for survival.

Future in South Africa

Analysts on all sides of the issue seem to agree on at least one point: The eventual death of Mandela, 94, could make long-simmering problems explode to the forefront once again, potentially with deadly consequences.

The general public perception of Mandela, which tends to ignore or minimize his well-documented past involvement in terrorism and the international communist movement, considers the former president and ANC leader as something of a hero for his key role in the Western- and Soviet-backed takedown of apartheid.

When he dies, more than a few analysts say full-blown chaos could be unleashed in South Africa. One source with knowledge of the matter told WND that martial law may even be declared.

If the plight of significant segments of the Afrikaner population is bad now, however, the death of Mandela could mark a turning point toward total disaster – at least if current trends continue and the world remains silent.

What to do, though, remains unclear.

Afrikaners within South Africa and others exiled around the world have widely divergent views as to what route would be best for the European-descent minority.

Options

A few exiles, citizens and experts who spoke with WND suggested that there was no longer a viable future for Afrikaners in South Africa.

Along with advocates like Stanton of Genocide Watch, they say it is time for the United States and Europe to start urgently accepting vulnerable whites as refugees.

Others say a war for self-defense might be the only real option if the situation gets out of control – a conflict that would undoubtedly have disastrous consequences for all South Africans, but especially the white minority.

Plenty of South Africans, especially in cities like Cape Town, still do not see what analysts say are storm clouds building on the horizon. Most would simply like to live in peace.

Incompatible cultures

For an increasingly significant segment of the population, it is becoming clearer that today’s South Africa is simply not sustainable in the long term.

“South Africa is a colonial construct, currently an incompatible, unsustainable mix,” International Afrikaner Society President Hannes Louw told WND.

The major fault-line in what is dubbed the “Rainbow nation,” Louw said, is between Afrikaners – descendants of Europeans, Khoi Africans as well as former slaves from Africa, Indonesia, and India – and Bantu, descendants of migrant groups from central and eastern Africa.

“The time has come to face the facts: oil and water does not mix,” he continued.

“The same principles that applied to other countries, like North and South Sudan, also applies to South Africa – the country needs to be divided in two countries, a Western South Africa where Afrikaners are the majority and an Eastern South Africa where Bantus are the majority,” Louw said.

“Despite the current regime’s efforts to culturally colonize Western South Africa, with racist Black Economic Empowerment and busing in homeless Xhosa, Afrikaners are still the majority in in this region and that’s the saving grace,” he continued.

“The time has come for Afrikaners living in Western South Africa to democratically take back their inheritance, the land that was paid for with the lives of our ancestors, fertilized with their blood and watered with their tears,” Louw added. “But as Christians, let us not forget to do so responsibly in line with Biblical principles, international law and the South African constitution.”

Afrikaner homeland

PRAAG leader Roodt, meanwhile, says the European minority in South Africa must achieve self-determination and self-governance if the Afrikaner people and culture are going to survive and thrive.

“The sooner whites realize that the only way out is an ethnic state or Israel of their own, the better,” he told WND. “I can only see the system deteriorating progressively, with anti-white discrimination becoming so pervasive and pernicious that no one will be able to survive.”

Experts say the idea of an independent homeland for Afrikaners is a non-starter with the South African ANC-SACP government, Western powers, and the United Nations.

Still, among certain segments of the white minority in South Africa, the idea is alluring and will likely become increasingly appealing going forward.

Survival

Henri Le Riche, a patriotic Afrikaner activist in exile in Australia who runs a website focused on many of issues affecting South Africa, told WND that there could still be a bright future for his people in their homeland.

“The Afrikaner is a small minority, and unlike the U.S. don’t have numbers in the population which will help in long term survival,” he explained.

That does not mean, though, that anyone should lose hope. There is potential, Le Riche continued.

“Whites do have a future in South Africa, but only if they embrace their own culture and stop feeling shame or embarrassed,” he said. “This, of course, is not easy in the current atmosphere, as morale is at its lowest due to affirmative action favoring black people, and discriminating against skilled white people.”

Revival and the West

However, Le Riche sees the problem as something that goes beyond his own nation and really affects the West more broadly – particularly Americans, who he says have a lot in common with the Afrikaner.

There are two primary forces holding Western culture together, Le Riche said: family and religion.

“This is the focus point of Marxism in to break down these two pillars of our society, with the final goal to break down Western culture,” he explained. “We can see the effects of this Marxist strategy all over the world with moral decay in society and the breakup of families.”

Quoting an American, Le Riche said that the West may have defeated Communism during the Cold War, but Marxism is still winning. Communism, he added, is the structured form of Marxism – government.

Afrikaners and Americans

Le Riche offered two suggested ways for Afrikaners as a people to survive, which he believes apply to patriotic Americans as well.

For one, “do not feel guilty or shy about who or what you are,” he said.

“As humans we have good and bad points, and that goes for every nation on this earth’s history. Marxism focus on breaking down identity by form of making you feel ashamed of who you are, and your history.”

Secondly, Le Riche added, Afrikaners should reach out to Americans, and vice versa.

“As Afrikaners and Americans we have a very similar history spanning over a period of nearly 400 years on two different continents,” he said. “The nearest you will get to an American is an Afrikaner. No other nation comes as close.”

“Sadly, many Americans don’t even know the Afrikaner,” Le Riche continued. “Americans need to help Afrikaners selling themselves, selling their identity. Fight the goal of Marxism.”

He says Americans should look beyond “Fortress America” and build new friendships and re-connect with old allies like the Afrikaners.

“When it comes to our way of life and survival of our values in the long run, we need friends, many friends, and friendships, like relationships, need work,” the exiled activist and commentator said. “Let’s start building those relationships.”

“Our biggest enemy is complacency,” Le Riche concluded.

IN JEOPARDY: FUTURE OF WHITE SOUTH AFRICANS

BBC discovers White Genocide in South Africa

The BBC wrote a report asking: “Do white people have a future in South Africa?”

Working-class white people, most of them Afrikaans-speakers, are going through an intense crisis. But you will not read about it in the newspapers or see it reported on television…

BBC World Affairs Editor John Simpson examines the challenges facing white South Africans.

The report generally takes a liberal ‘all whites are complicit in South Africa’s misery’ tack, and sandwiches various incontrovertible facts about whites in South Africa between such language.

With those bits excised, we get:

• The people who are suffering now are the weakest and most vulnerable members of the white community.
• Ernst Roets, a leading Afrikaans campaigner from the AfriForum organisation, took me to a squatter camp outside the country’s capital, Pretoria. A white squatter camp.
• It has been set up on the property of a sympathetic white farmer and is called, optimistically, Sonskyn Hoekie – Sunshine Corner.
• There are broken-down cars and bits of discarded furniture everywhere. Beyond the wooden shacks lie ditches and pools of dirty, stagnant water where mosquitoes breed. Two basic toilets serve the whole camp.
• According to Roets there are 80 white squatter camps – many of them bigger than this – in the Pretoria area alone. Across South Africa as a whole he believes there could be as many as 400,000 poor whites in conditions like these.
• Sonskyn Hoekie has no water and no electricity. The inhabitants live on two hand-out meals of maize porridge a day, which is provided by local volunteers. There is no social security for them, no lifeline…
• Semi-skilled white people have little chance of getting a job when so many black South Africans are unemployed.

In an article last year in FrontPage, Dan Greenfield writes:

Black Economic Empowerment (BEE) policies, the South African version of Affirmative Action, have closed job markets to white South Africans. Racial benchmarks have been incorporated into private industry and government service. As a result, Black South Africans with a higher education are 34% more likely to find a job than white South Africans with that same level of education. And even that education is becoming hard to come by as white students with excellent grades are being shut out of higher education and given few options besides a refugee camp or immigration to one of the few countries that will have them.

Towards the end of the BBC article, the writer acknowledges the post-apartheid genocide of whites in the country:

• There is another group of white Afrikaners, far higher up the social scale, who are deeply threatened – in this case, literally. Virtually every week the press here report the murders of white farmers, though you will not hear much about it in the media outside South Africa.
• In South Africa you are twice as likely to be murdered if you are a white farmer than if you are a police officer – and the police here have a particularly dangerous life. The killings of farmers are often particularly brutal.
• Ernst Roets’s organisation has published the names of more than 2,000 people who have died over the last two decades. The government has so far been unwilling to make solving and preventing these murders a priority.

2,000 targeted, murdered whites (murdered at four times the rate of rural black South Africans) is a low-ball figure. To see the horrific nature of these attacks, see here [Warning: graphic photos].

Meanwhile, these persecuted white families, many of whose lineage in South Africa goes back to the 1600s, are regularly being denied political asylum in western countries. And what sorts of Western voices are chiming in on the issue?

• …Professor Mark Behr, of Rhodes College, in Memphis, Tennessee, and Dr Dennis Laumann, of the University of Memphis, have rejected requests that they help the family.
• “I am not interested in assisting Afrikaners claiming discrimination in a non-racial, democratic, post-apartheid South Africa,” wrote Laumann.
• “In my scholarly opinion, there is absolutely no basis for their allegation – whatever evidence they may present.”
• Behr – who is an award-winning South African author – said he did not believe the law firm would find “any fair-minded scholar” to support the family.

Maybe if, on their immigration request forms, the white families said they were Muslim or non-white, they would improve their chances for successful asylum.

NOTE: Behr teaches courses in Fiction Writing, Post-Colonial Literature, Queer and Gender Theory, African Literature, Literature and War, and Contemporary World Literature.

One can safely guess what his politics are.

In the FrontPage piece, Dan Greenfield writes:

Dr. Stanton of Genocide Watch, a respected human rights organization, has stated that the white population of South Africa is now in the sixth of the center’s eight stages of genocide. That sixth stage is defined as “Preparation.”

“Victims are identified and separated out because of their ethnic or religious identity. Death lists are drawn up. Members of victim groups are forced to wear identifying symbols. Their property is expropriated. They are often segregated into ghettoes, deported into concentration camps, or confined to a famine-struck region and starved. At this stage, a Genocide Emergency must be declared.”

The next stage after “Preparation” is “Extermination”.

Brief uit ‘n wit plakkerskamp

My God, My Anker – Ek stap vanoggend weg van die plek waar dit dié slag Sarie se beurt was om haar kindjie te begrawe, sommer hier in die kamp, op 10 Julie2010. Sal iemand ooit weet of onthou klein Jana was ook vir ‘n rukkie, ‘n volle 16 maande, hier op aarde, of beteken dit as jy arm is en jy gaan sommer dood van koue, dat dit nie saak maak nie en dat die lewe maar net moet aangaan sonder jou, sonder om jou te mis of om ‘n gat te los? In Sarie se hart het haar kind se dood ‘n gat gelos -vir ewig. Die winter het ons gevang hierdie jaar. Ag, Here, hoekom is ek hier? Hoekom is my lewe en my kinders en my hele bestaan opgesom in ‘n vuil, gemufde tent vol uitgooigoed en vrot goed?

Ek leef en oorleef met ander mense se weggooigoed op hierdie godverlate vlaktes waar nie eers ‘n boom of gras se wortels wil vat nie. Niks wil hier wees nie, niemand moet hier wees nie… Die kamp en sy mense en die moedeloosheid is besig om my siel lagie vir lagie af te skil tot daar niks van my gaan oorbly nie. Dit maak my dood, maar op ander maniere as wat honger of siek wees jou dood maak. Dit maak die rede dood ‘n die rede vir opstaan en die rede vir weer probeer. Dit maak dit net dood. Daar was vandag niks om te eet nie. My maag het al so gekrimp dat ek net een keer ‘n dag hoef te eet.

Ja, om te dink daar was ‘n tyd wat ek maer wou wees. Ek wonder of dit my maag of my hart is wat pyn, want sien, Here, ék kan nog honger gaan lê, maar ek kan nie my kinders so sien nie! Dis ‘n pyn wat jou lyf nie kan vat nie! Ek het vanaand net water op die gel-stofie gekook tot Magrietjie en boetie, Jan, op die ou end aan die slaap geraak het. Hulle het bly wag en mamma vertrou en nie eers gevra of getwyfel nie. Ek kon nie sê hier’s niks om te eet nie. Die kerk se mense het oor die naweek die afvalkos gebring wat Checkers uitgooi, maar wat jy nog kan eet – en jy sal dit eet, selfs al stink dit soos iets wat die varke moet eet. Jy grawe die beste uit vir jou kinders en jy eet dit. Dit het gehou tot gister, maar vandag was daar niks.

Ek probeer, Here, regtig, ek probeer. Ek versamel “scrap metal” en ek pas die mense se karre op by die Spar en soms kry ek ‘n “tip” of ‘n brood, maar ek vra nie ander mense om agter my te kyk nie, regtig! Ek sál nie vra nie! Ek kán nie, Here, ek voel ek mág nie! Ek sal eerder iets by iemand vat en u my laat straf – al is arm wees genoeg van ‘n straf. Ek sal eerder nóg straf vat, maar ek kán nie ‘n ander mens vir iets vra nie. Asseblief, Here, moet my nooit so arm maak, dat ek moet vra nie. Ek vra net vir u, Here, want u weet. U móét weet, want u het dan alles gemaak. Of het ék hierdie omstandighede gemaak? Is dit my skuld dat ek hier is? Is dit iets wat ek gedoen het en nou verdien ek om arm te wees? Miskien nog ek, Here, maar nie my kinders nie! Hulle het mos nie gevra om hier te wees nie. Hulle het mos nie gekies nie… Hoe maak u kinders en laat hulle doodgaan van koue … doodgaan omdat hulle nie medisyne kan kry wat die siekte stop nie? Hoe laat u kinders vanaand honger gaan slaap omdat hulle ma net water het om te kook? Hoekom laat u toe dat wrede, ryk kinders hulle spot uitspoeg na dit wat ons huis noem? Hulle weet nie wat hulle doen nie!

Hulle weet nie hoe hulle woorde, wrokke en wrakke van ons harte maak nie. Vergewe hulle, Here, want hoe móét hulle weet? En hoe kán jy, as jy alles het, jou in mense se nood indink of inleef of invoel? Maak my kinders sterk, Here, want hulle maak my sterk. Ek wil ook opstaan as ek sien hoe hulle elke dag sonder kla of moeg raak of inkrimp op hulle voete bly en selfs trots bly. Ja, hulle lag nog, hulle hoop nog. Ek wil selfs sê hulle vertrou nog op my as ma wat maar sal sorg en sal voorsien soos wat u vir my gee om te kan voorsien.

Hulle leef met ‘n verwagting. Hoe kan ek dan opgee? Ek kan mos nie. Nee, solank as wat u my genadig is en ek vandag oorleef, sal ek maar weer opstaan more en sal ek veg vir die more daarna vir my kinders. Ek sal more weer my kinders vertel daar kom iets goed hierna, al kan ons dit nog nie sien nie en al kan ons dit nie eers dink nie, want op ‘n manier glo hulle dit. Al leef ons hier eenkant waar die lewe ons weggegooi het. Al reën dit weer en muf dit verder en al koop niemand meer my “scrap metal” of “tip” my vir die karre wat ek oppas nie.

Ek kies lewe! Ek kies dit, want dis in my bloed en dit loop deur my are en deur die eeue. En dit loop deur ons geskiedenis en deur elke uithoek van hierdie land. Dit loop deur my en dit loop ook deur Oom Bertus wat die kos bring, Sarie wat treur, Liena wat te veel drink, Pieta wat ‘n brandweerman wil word en selfs Magda wat wag om dood te gaan.

Lewe. En hoop. En geloof. Wees ons genadig, Heer, terwyl ons bewerig en bang die lewe kies.

Jesusliefde!

Genocide Solutions – Seminar for target-population

Solutions to certain aspects of the genocide, the systemic mass-slaughter of the white population in South Africa – By Pieter Oosthuizen

Solutions to certain aspects of the genocide, the systemic mass-slaughter of the white population in South Africa.

“In South Africa, the white population have been brainwashed into a permanent acceptance of their status as victims in the face of daily brutalities committed against them by certain segments of the population that acts out the role of cultural-marxism against innocent victims; – the whites.

The solution is difficult to implement in a country where the state controls the mass media like radio and television networks, and where the rest of the media are acting as proxy-agents for the government.

However the steps into effectively combating their status as victims are in short the following:

• Becoming educated on the phenomenon of genocide in the modern era. In this regard, many books and articles, including videos are available on the website – www.neo-genocide.com/farmitracker/reports
• Secondly before undergoing any training in fire-arms or martial arts, the target population should first undergo training in The Basic Principles of Personal Security.
• As a result of the sensitivity of this program of combating genocide, the real solutions are only presented in a seminar to audiences that were developed for specific audiences; including farmers, business owners and private individuals from the victim-group.
• Therefore the seminar, “A Line in the Sand: has been developed that includes: Background on aspects that comprise a genocide; Training on aspects of personal security; Handling violent aspects of the genocide- a legal perspective; A strategy that could maybe effectively combat any enemy actions.

A Line in the Sand Seminar : Combating violent aspects of a genocide

Aanvallers skiet pa dood – Kempton Park

Aanvallers het ’n pa van Bredell, Kempton Park, gister in die vroeë oggendure koelbloedig deur die venster van sy slaapkamer op die eerste verdieping van sy huis doodgeskiet.

Chantell en Manfred Schmidt. Inbrekers het hom in sy slaapkamer doodgeskiet.

Manfred Schmidt (42) se vrou, Chantell, het onder die bed ingekruip, maar haar man se moordenaars het haar aan haar bene daar uitgesleep.

Toe die egpaar se 14-jarige tweelingseuns, Kyle en Brendan, kom kyk wat aangaan, het die moordenaars hulle ook met ’n wapen aangehou en op hulle gevloek.

Nadat die aanvallers twee skootrekenaars en drie selfone geroof het, het hulle by die huis van Chris van Niekerk, Manfred se swaer, op dieselfde landbouhoewe probeer inbreek.

Die Schmidts was nog besig met werk aan hul nuwe huis op die hoewe in Charlesstraat waarop Van Niekerk en Chantell se pa, Jackie Andrews, in aparte huise naby mekaar woon.

Dis net enkele kilometers van die plaas by Olifantsfontein waar Eddie Fouché, ’n plaasvoorman, Maandagoggend vermoor en Gert van Wyk, sy werkgewer, gewond is. Van Wyk was gister nog in ’n bedenklike toestand.

In die jongste voorval het vermoedelik vier rowers gisteroggend net ná 02:00 blykbaar by die hoek van ’n 2 m hoë baksteenmuur met elektriese draad bo-op geklim en daarna ’n leer gebruik om by die slaapkamervenster op die eerste verdieping uit te kom.

“Hulle het blykbaar probeer om die venster verder oop te maak en die blindings voor die venster weg te trek,” het Van Niekerk gesê.

“Manfred het dit gehoor en opgespring, toe skiet hulle hom dood. Chantell het gegil en probeer om onder die bed in te kruip.

“In daardie stadium was die inbrekers reeds in die kamer en het haar aan haar bene onder die bed uitgesleep.

“Die seuns het kom kyk wat aangaan en is met die vuurwapen gedreig.”

Die rowers is met twee skootrekenaars en drie selfone vort.

“Ons krag het sowat ’n uur voor die aanval afgegaan. Toe ek ná die skoot en die gil buite op my balkon kom, kon ek figure daar by Manny se huis sien,” het Van Niekerk gesê.

“Van hulle was ook besig om op die grondvlak van my huis te probeer inbreek. Ek het vier waarskuwingskote in die gras voor die huis geskiet.

“Die rowers het oor die muur geklim en verdwyn.”

Van Niekerk het die noodknoppie van die veiligheidsmaatskappy gedruk en hulle en die polisie was kort daarna daar.

Lede van die forensiese ondersoekspan het verskeie vingerafdrukke gekry waar die aanvallers oor die muur geklim het.

Vriende en ’n traumaberader het Chantell en die seuns gisteroggend in die huis ondersteun.

Volgens kapt. Jethro Mtshali, polisiewoordvoerder van Kempton Park, ondersoek die polisie verskeie leidrade, maar is niemand nog in hegtenis geneem nie.

Boewe klouter op, skiet pa dood

Muldersdrift man dies in hail of bullets

Desmond Botha was a helpful, kind and generous man who was always there for everyone whenever they needed him.

Desmond Botha

However, it was that kindness that eventually led to his death.

The 59-year-old Muldersdrift man received a distressed call from his female neighbour at around 9.30pm on Saturday, asking him to check on her dogs, which were barking incessantly.

The neighbour was scared to do so herself late at night.

Botha, who had moved into the new place four months ago, got into his bakkie and drove around to the back where the dogs were.

He drove straight into a hail of bullets.

As the bullets rained, he reversed, trying to get away. But it was too late. He died soon afterwards, and the bakkie hit the wall of a nearby cottage.

The armed men disappeared in the darkness without taking anything. Botha was hit five times.

On Sunday, his siblings Barbara Fraser and Andy Botha, together with Fraser’s husband Dougall, arrived at his cottage to collect his belongings.

Fraser said her brother had left his Weltevreden Park townhouse four months ago for the tranquillity and the beauty of his new place.

Some of his plans had included getting chickens and goats.

However, his brother’s life had suddenly been taken by an unnecessary death, she said.

“His window was open when he was attacked, he was shot at a close range.

“He was a wonderful person and the kindest of people, always there for everyone. The proof is in the fact that he went to help a neighbour in the time of need, at 9.30 at night,” Fraser said.

While sad, Fraser, a staunch Christian who also lives in a plot in Magaliesburg, said she had made peace with the death.

“I don’t hate the people who did this, they will have to stand before God and account. I choose to forgive them so I can be free, I choose to pray for them because they need Jesus.

“If I don’t forgive them, I will harbour hatred, which will make me ill or a horrible person.”

Botha’s death was the third attack in the area in three days.

In the wake of the incidents, police held a second meeting in three days in the area to find solutions to the spate of attacks in the area.

Spokeswoman Lieutenant Katlego Mogale said they were trying to engage with the community on what is going on because in some of the incidents, nothing was taken.

“We need to find what the motive is,” she said.

Wingerdterreur

Die ANC se revolusie teen die blankes in Suid Afrika duur voort.

President Zuma het vroeg in Januarie aangedui dat die kwessie van nasionalisering in die huidige fase van die revolusie afgehandel gaan word.

“All animals are equal,but some animals are more equal than others.”

Wat duidelik blyk uit die handelings van die ANC se alliansievennoot, COSATU, in die Hexriviervallei se plase, is dat terreur deel is van die taktiek om die bedryf, die streek, die boere en produksie tot ‘n stilstand te dwing deur verliese te veroorsaak wat dit onmoontlik maak vir die boere om verder aan te gaan met hul boerderypraktyke. Op daardie stadium gaan die staat die plase vir ‘n appel en ‘n ui koop en dan die werklose swart massas op die grond vestig.

Natuurlik gaan daar dan nie verder op die grond geboer word nie, maar daar gaan massiewe aantal permanente swart inwoners na die grond toe stroom en in reuse-plakkerskampe met hul reuse-getalle, ‘n permanente ondersteunersbasis van die ANC vorm. Sodoende verseker die ANC dat die Wes-Kaap ook permanent deur hulle beheer word. Die onluste is die aksie wat die hek gaan oopmaak vir n reuse toestroming van ANC ondersteuners na die Wes-Kaap toe op ‘n permanente basis.

Dit is ‘n strategie om die permanensie van ANC-regering in die gebied te verseker.

En nadat die reuse-plakkerskampe op die voormalige wingerdboorde gevestig is, dan begin die nagmerrie vir inwoners van die Wes-Kaap.

In Transvaal word plakkerskampe gebruik as basisse en afspringplekke van terroriste, rowers en diewe wat die omliggende blanke gebiede verwoes, leeg steel en die inwoners stelselmatig vermoor. Die Diepsloot plakkerskamp het al soveel keer gedien as basis van terroriste van omliggende blanke gebiede dat ‘n plek soos Muldersdrift, nou al bekend staan as Murdersdrift.

Met ‘n plakkerskamp onder hul beheer, gebruik die ANC dit om geweld teen die blankes te pleeg, of om die blankes te dreig met geweld. Paaie wat verby die plakkerskampe loop, en snelweë, verander in paaie van die dood. Motoriste wat se motors in die omgewing van die plakkerskampe onklaar raak, word voor die voet vermoor, veral na skemer in die aand. Vrouens wat alleen reis is ook teikens van kriminele wat op die paaie rondom die plakkerskampe aktief is.

Snelweë word met rotse besaai in die aand, en wanneer ‘n niksvermoedende motoris oor die klippe ry, en sy motor beskadig, is hy ‘n teiken en slagoffer.

Toe COSATU die eerste keer ‘n staking uitgeroep het, en daar het tydens die staking geweld deur hulle lede voorgekom, was dit dalk toevallig of onbedoelde nagevolge.

Maar noudat COSATU stakings uitroep, en dit elke keer sonder uitsondering met geweld gepaard asook lewensverlies en eiendomsverlies, is dit nie toevallig nie. COSATU weet nou al dat elke staking van hulle met geweld gepaard gaan. Daarom moet COSATU se stakings as ‘n de-facto aanhitsing tot terreur gesien word. As alliansievennoot van die ANC, is beide die ANC en COSATU skuldig aan ‘n regering wat terreurdade pleeg teen sy burgers.

Die Verenigde Nasies se 2000 Omvattende Konvensie oor Internasionale Terrorisme, lui onder andere dat ‘n persoon op enige manier ‘n misdryf begaan as hy onwettig en doelbewus veroorsaak dat mense sterf of beseer word, en as daar ernstige skade aangerig aan openbare of private eiendom, en as daar skade aan eiendom aangerig word in n poging om n bevolking te intimideer.

Nou dit is presies wat met COSATU se stakings gebeur op die oomblik. Mense sterf. Daar word ernstige skade aan private eiendom aangerig, en plaaswerkers en boere word geïntimideer.

Ons sien dus grootskaalse terrorisme in die Wes-Kaap waarby die ANC en COSATU altwee teenwoordig is. Daagliks is daar geweldige skade aan ekonomiese infrastruktuur. As bomwerpers van ‘n vyandige moondheid dieselfde skade aangerig het, en vrugtepakhuise verwoes het, was ons in n staat van oorlog. Die vyand sou dit waarskynlik as ‘n suksesvolle lugaanval beskou het, en die sjampanje sou gevloei het tussen die generale staf van die vyand.

Nou is die vyand wat ons Afrikaners se ekonomiese infrastruktuur verwoes op n manier soortgelyk as in ‘n konvensionele oorlog, die land waarbinne ons woon en werk, se regering. Nie ONS regering nie. Hierdie land se regering beskou Afrikaners en blankes duidelik as ‘persona-non-grata’. Ons word nie gesien as deel van die burgers van die land nie.

Ons Afrikaners word as die vyand gesien, hoewel ons binne die land bly, en met ons belastinggeld die staat help om ons te onderdruk. Ons word soos die vyand behandel deur die regering van die land. Ons moet besef dit is nie ONS regering nie. Nie omdat ek so sê of skryf nie, maar omdat die regering van Suid Afrika ons so behandel.

Ons staat voer ‘n veldtog van wingerdterreur teen die Afrikaners.

Die ingevoerde terroriste is nie eers die plaaswerkers nie, maar werklose misbaksels uit die Transkei, Mosambiek, Lesotho en Zimbabwe. Ook van die daggaproduserende Lesotho word op ‘n groot skaal deur die staat as terroriste aangewend, natuurlik onder die dreigement van deportasie indien hulle nie die terreurdade uitvoer nie. Die staat gebruik dus hierdie burgers van mislukte buurstate om die ANC se terreurdade uit te voer.

Wat duidelik blyk is die ontbrekende instrumente en meganismes waaroor Afrikaners en boere beskik om hierdie nuwe vorm van wingerdterreur en nasionalisering tee te werk. En hierdie tekorte en gebreke gaan natuurlik in die nabye toekoms deegliks uitgebuit word deur die regerende terroriste van Suid Afrika, wanneer hulle op ‘n massaskaal die res van die land se plase gaan ontwrig en inval.

Wat ons moet sien op die oomblik in die Wes-Kaap is die regerende ANC-terroriste se ontwikkeling van ‘n oorlogsinstrument, waarmee hulle die nasionalisering van plase, en die revolusie van die ANC landwyd gaan voltooi.

Vir my as strateeg, is dit ‘n duidelike ontwikkeling van ‘n strategie en instrument waarmee die res van die land se grond gevat gaan word. In ‘n situasie van twee opponêrende wille rakende grondbesit, die van die boer, en die van die staat, is die staat besig om ‘n instrument te ontwikkel en te gebruik waarmee hulle die wil van die boere om die grond te besit en te bewerk, te ondermyn en te vernietig tot op die punt waar die boere nie meer die grond wil besit of bewerk nie. Op daardie punt van die vernietigde wil van die boere, het die ANC dan die sielkundige oorwinning bereik, want dan wil hulle opponente nie meer weerstand bied nie, of nie verder weerstand bied teen die revolusionêre magte en alliansies se terreurdade nie.

Ons as Afrikaners en boere, moet so gou moontlik koppe bymekaarsit en instrumente ontwikkel waarmee ons hierdie oorlogstrategie van die ANC en sy alliansievennote gaan teëstaan en oorwin. En dit sal oplossings moet wees wat nie net landboukundig van aard is of rondom salarisverhogings sentreer nie, want dit is glad nie die onderliggende kwessie nie. Salarisse is bloot die propagandaveldtog waarmee die wil om terreurdade te pleeg, by die niksvermoedende ‘betogers’ of buurlande se vyfde-kolommers opgewek word.

Wetsgehoorsame burgers se reg op lewe, en die reg op private eiendombesit is basies aan enige land wat homself as n ‘demokratiese’ regering wil voorhou. Beide regte is ononderhandelbaar. Jou reg om te lewe, en jou reg om jou lewe te beskerm is ononderhandelbaar. As jy voel of vermoed jou lewe word bedreig, of gaan bedreig word, het die jy die reg om jou lewe te beskerm, al moet jy doodmaak in die proses.

Deur jou lewe te verruil met harde werk, fisiese inspanning en die loop van risiko’s en die aanwending van jou kapitaal, verkry jy eiendom. Enige iemand wat eiendom besit het van sy lewenstyd opgeoffer om dit te verkry en te behou. Indien jou eiendom beskadig of verwoes word, of die moontlikheid bestaan dat dit verwoes gaan word, het jy die reg om dit te beskerm op enige manier wat nodig is om dit suksesvol te verdedig.

Wat duidelik is dat ons twee regstelsels in die land het.Ons leef die nagmerrie van George Orwell se rolprent ‘Animal Farm’.

In die boek Animal Farm skryf die varke op mure van die plaas die volgende slagspreuk: “All animals are equal”.

Nadat die revolusie van die plaasdiere verby is, en die diere die boere van die plaas af gejaag het, begin die varke al meer van die opbrengs van die plaas vir hulself vat. Die varke sit naderhand in die kombuis en drink alleen bier terwyl die ander diere niks bier kry nie. Die diere raak toe ongelukkig en murmureer.

Toe skryf die varke op die plaasmure: “All animals are equal,but some are more equal than others”.

So in die Weskaap het ons ‘n vakbondleier,Tony Ehrenreich wat COSATU-lede tot stakings aanhits, welwetende dat die stakings uitloop op blote terreurveldtogte van boere en plaaswerkers, waartydens enorme skade aan privaatbesit en private ekonomiese infrastruktuur aangerig word.

Fisiese terreurdade word deur COSATU gepleeg sonder dat ‘n haan daarna kraai met die goedkeuring van die staat.

In Bloemfontein sit Afrikaners in die tronk, omdat hulle volgens die bewering van n kommunistiese staat se agent, gepraat het oor terreurdade. Niks beskadig nie, niks vernietig nie, geen wapens gekry nie, maar nogtans in die tronk.

En ek sien op die mure van die Suid Afrikaanse plaas staan daar geskryf: “All animals are equal, but some animals are more equal than others.”

En ek sien die ANC het ‘n monopolie op terrorisme en wingerdterreur teen Afrikaners.

Slegs ure later nóg ’n Vrystaat plaasaanval

SLEGS ure nadat ’n bejaarde egpaar van Parys se lyke in hul plaas-snoepwinkel gevind is waar hulle wreed vermoor is, is ’n vrou van die Kroonstad-distrik gister in die vroeë oggendure met ’n knopkierie buite haar plaashuis oor die kop geslaan.

Malani Pitout is gister in die vroeë oggendure met ’n knopkierie oor die kop geslaan op die plaas Malana in die distrik Kroonstad. Sy het knoppe en kneusplekke opgedoen.

Intussen is ’n 30-jarige man en 46-jarige vrou gister in hegtenis geneem weens die wrede moord op Ernst (75) en Annetjie van Rooyen (74) van die plaas Somerset.

Die man is ’n eertydse werknemer van die Van Rooyens, het konst. Peter Kareli, polisiewoordvoerder, gesê.

’n Samsung-selfoon en kruideniersware wat aan die egpaar behoort het, is in hul besit gevind.

Skerp reaksie en veroordeling is uit verskeie oorde ontvang weens die vlaag plaasaanvalle wat die afgelope maand in die Noord-Vrystaat plaasgevind het.

Die aanvaller wat Malani Pitout (48) van die plaas Malana by Kroonstad met ’n knopkierie geslaan het, het haar op haar Sotho-naam aangespreek en sy meen hulle het presies geweet wie sy is.

“Hulle het lank gewag. ’n Mens kon die spore sien waar hulle heel moontlik van die vorige middag af al in die skaapkraal weggekruip het. Ek dink die diefwering is voor die tyd al afgesaag sodat hulle later kon inklim. Hulle het seker nie gedink daar gaan iemand by my in die huis wees nie. Gewoonlik is ek alleen,” sê Pitout (48).

Sy sê as haar verloofde, Diederick Reinecke, nie die aand daar was nie, is sy sekerlik dood in haar huis aangetref.

Sy het knoppe op haar kop en bloukolle opgedoen, en is gekneus en seer, maar “is verder eintlik heel oukei.”

Reinecke het ook kneus- en skaafplekke opgedoen in ’n stoeiery met die aanvallers.

Pitout sê haar honde het die Dinsdag omstreeks 23:00 erg geblaf. Later, om 01:00 die oggend, het die honde weer geblaf. Reine-cke het gaan ondersoek instel en twee onbekende mans in die badkamer aangetref.

“Hy het die deur toegedruk en vir my geskree ek moet hardloop. Toe ek by die slaapkamerdeur uithardloop, sien ek hulle druk die deur van die badkamer oop en stoei met Diederick. Ek het na my broer se huis begin hardloop. Toe ek so 50m ver is, het een wat buite was, my met ’n knopkierie oor die kop geslaan. Toe val ek. Hy het my nog geslaan en geskop. Hy het my aan my nagklere se kraag gesleep en vir my in Sotho gesê ek moet saamkom.

“Hy het vir my gesê: ‘Thula, Masabata, thula.’ Dit is my Sotho-naam, so hy het presies geweet wie ek is,” sê Pitout. Sy kon egter daarin slaag om los te ruk.

Haar gille het haar broer, Nico Lategan, wat sowat 150m weg in ’n ander huis woon, wakker gemaak. Hy het ’n skoot geskiet en die aanvallers het gevlug.

“Die plaaswag en boere was binne minute op die toneel. Hulle het die aanvallers naby een van die koppies in die omgewing gesien, maar hulle het weggekom,” sê Pitout.

Die polisie het die voorval bevestig en gesê niemand is nog in hegtenis geneem nie.

‘Net die doodstraf sal help’

VINGERS word uit verskeie oorde na die regering gewys oor sy oënskynlike onwilligheid om plaasaanvalle tot prioriteitsmisdaad te verklaar.

Ongeveer ’n honderd Suid-Afrikaners wie se lewe deur plaasaanvalle verwoes is, se stories gaan vandag in Pretoria aan die minister van polisie, Nathi Mthethwa, oorhandig word, sê AfriForum.

Die slagoffers gaan van die minister eis om sy stilswye te verbreek deur plaasmoorde tot ’n prioriteitsmisdaad te verklaar, sê die organisasie.

Nóg ’n plaasaanval in die vroeë oggendure gister op ’n vrou in die distrik Kroonstad bring die getal plaasaanvalle in die Noord-Vrystaat vanaf die begin van Desember op ses te staan.

Die DA-LP vir die Fezile Dabi-distrik en die party se adjunkwoordvoerder oor staatsveiligheid, Theo Coetzee, sê: “Alleen die herinstelling van die doodstraf kan die hoë misdaadsyfer, waarvan plaasmoorde, moorde, aanvalle, verkragtings en molestering van vroue en kinders die grootste gedeelte uitmaak, bekamp.

“Al beteken dit dat ons nou moet aandring op ’n referendum hieroor.”

Hy het, soos verskeie ander belanghebbendes skerp gereageer op die dubbele plaasmoord op ’n bejaarde egpaar van Parys, asook etlike ander plaasaanvalle wat die afgelope maand voorgekom het in die Noord-Vrystaat.

Ernst (75) en Annetjie van Rooyen (74) is Dinsdagoggend in die snoepwinkel wat hulle op die plaas Somerset by Parys bedryf het, dood gevind.

Coetzee sê die aanvalle en moorde die afgelope tyd in die distrik bedreig die land se veiligheid en versoening.

“Die DA kan hom nie daarmee versoen dat die minister van polisie weier om plaasmoorde en aanvalle te klassifiseer as prioriteitsmisdade nie.

“Nog ’n probleem is die minister van staatsveiligheid, Siyabonga Cwele, se laksheid om betrokke te raak.”

Bertus van der Westhuizen, Vrystaatse veiligheidsverteenwoordiger van TLU-SA, sê hulle het met skok en afgryse verneem van die moord op die Van Rooyen-egpaar.

“Ons wil ons ernstige kommer uitspreek oor die skynbare toename in plaasvoorvalle die afgelope maand in die Noord-Vrystaat.”

Van der Westhuizen sê bekommerde en woedende boere het hom ná die Van Rooyens se moord gekontak en hul misnoeë duidelik en onomwonde uitgespreek oor die veiligheidsituasie op plase.

“TLU-SA-Vrystaat betreur die feit dat die landbousektor van die Suid-Afrikaanse ekonomie onder hierdie onveilige en ongunstige omstandighede moet funksioneer.”

Hy moedig boere aan om groter beheer oor hul eie veiligheid te neem deur by georganiseerde landbou in te skakel en so deel te word van hul plaaslike veiligheidstrukture.

“Indien daar nie strukture in plek is nie, moet boere leiding neem en strukture in plek kry,” sê Van der Westhuizen.

“Boere moet hul marnetradio’s afstof en weer in werking kry, want kommunikasie is baie belangrik,” sê hy.

Carina Serfontein, DA-raadslid vir die Ngwathe-munisipaliteit, sê dit is onaanvaarbaar dat bejaardes as sagte teikens beskou word.

“Aanvalle soos hierdie dui op ’n verval van moraliteit in ons samelewing. Nie te lank terug nie het pres. Jacob Zuma ’n oproep gedoen om morele herlewing in Suid-Afrika.

“Solank die owerhede nie die veiligheid van ons burgers kan verseker nie, sal moraliteit verder agteruitgaan en aanvalle soortgelyk aan hierdie aanhou plaasvind.”

Die VF+ het die Van Rooyen-moord ten sterkste veroordeel.

“Wat opvallend is, is dat in vier van die ses gevalle die slagoffers ouer as 60 jaar was. Dit dui op ’n lafhartigheid van aanvallers om bejaardes te teiken.

“Hierdie vlaag van plaasmoorde in die Noord-Vrystaat is totaal onaanvaarbaar en elke plaasmoord is een te veel,” sê Abrie Oosthuizen, die Vrystaatse leier van die VF+.

Hy sê die minister van polisie, die premier van die Vrystaat en die Vrystaatse LUR van polisie se swye oor plaasmoorde, maak die regering aandadig aan plaasaanvalle.

Sticks and Stones May Break Your Bones – Gregory Stanton

In July this year, I traveled to South Africa to conduct a personal investigation, assisted by the Transvaal Agricultural Union and the F. W. De Klerk Foundation, of the growing number of murders against Afrikaner (Boer) farmers since black majority rule in 1994. The average murder rate of all South Africans is 34 per 100,000 per year, a high murder rate. (England’s is 2.4 per 100,000. Israel’s is 2.6. The Netherlands’ is 1.4. Japan’s is 0.5. The U.S. rate is 5.9.)4 But against white Boer farm owners, the murder rate in South Africa since 1994 has been 97 per 100,000, the highest murder rate in the world. (In Colombia, the next worst, the rate is 61.1)Most of the murders were hate crimes, with the victims’ bodies disemboweled, eyes gouged out, women raped, children burned or boiled alive. Very little property was stolen.

A few years ago, the President of the African National Congress Youth League, Julius Malema, revived the ANC revolutionary song, “Kill the Boer, Kill the Farmer.” He sang it at countless ANC Youth League rallies in the past several years. Genocide Watch immediately issued a Genocide Alert when Malema began to sing the hate song, since he represented a radical, racist, communist wing of the governing party. We moved South Africa up to Stage 6 (Preparation) from 5 (Polarization) on our scale of genocide warnings. After Malema began to sing the hate song, the murder rate of Boer farmers increased monthly. Finally a farmer sued Malema under South Africa’s “hate speech” law, which defines hate speech clearly, and states that it is unprotected by the general free speech guaranteed by South Africa’s Constitution. South African law gives judges the authority to impose injunctions, fines, and even imprisonment. A South African judge found Malema guilty of hate speech and enjoined him from singing the “Kill the Boer” song. In his injunction, the South African judge directly paraphrased the analysis of incitement on the Genocide Watch website.

Malema mockingly converted the song to “Kiss the Boer” while his followers sang the original “Kill the Boer” words. On January 10, 2012, even President Zuma himself sang the “Kill the Boer” song in a public ANC celebration, and Zuma has done so several times since. After the President sang the song, the number of farm murders increased each month. However, the ANC removed Julius Malema from his office as President of the ANC Youth League and expelled him from the ANC. Malema’s downfall was only one step against genocide, because the Deputy President of the ANC Youth League has now called for “war” to “take back the land.”

Why is there a relationship between the “Kill the Boer” hate song and official government policy? The African National Congress (ANC) continues to be dominated by the South African Communist Party, which holds a majority in the South African Senate, and COSATU, South Africa’s Communist-run trade union association. The ANC has issued a “green paper” calling for forced land redistribution in South Africa, in violation of the SA Constitution. The SA Communist Party has also called for nationalization of all mines, banks, and industries. Currently 87 percent of commercial farms in South Africa are owned by 3 percent of the population, mostly white Boer farmers. The commercial farms produce most of South Africa’s food supply. The farms that have been turned over to black ownership have usually fallen back into subsistence farming, because there has not been adequate training for Black management. Many farm murders are committed by employees on the white Boer farmers’ own farms.

So there is a racial agenda operating – the forced displacement of all Boer farmers so the land can be “redistributed” to Black farmers, though the farms were cleared and developed by Boers many generations ago. The Boers and all Whites are commonly referred to as “settlers”, even though they arrived in South Africa 300 years ago. They are classified as “foreigners,” a common tactic of dehumanization by those intent on forced displacement or genocide. By the same standard, most Americans would have to leave the USA for Europe or Africa and return all the land to Native Americans, who have been as discriminated against as South Africa’s Blacks under Apartheid. Native Americans were not even granted American citizenship until 1924.
