Zimbabwean War Veterans and Robert Mugabe's thugs forcing a white commercial farmer off his property

HARARE - South Africa’s ruling party ANC is planning Zimbabwean style land invasions after the FIFA 2010 World Cup, amid reports Zimbabwe’s Zanu PF and War Veterans Association will provide crucial support for the programme, sources in Zimbabwe said on Monday.

Controversial African National Congress Youth League (ANCYL) President, Julius Malema, is set to visit Zimbabwe for a series of meetings with Zanu PF counterparts.

The crucial visit will go a long way in exchanging ideas and preparatory stages for both logistics and mobilisation for sporadic land invasions across the country.

A member of the Zanu PF security department told our reporter that the basis of Malema’s visit to Harare is a follow up to a secret discussion between President Mugabe and his South African counterpart Jacob Zuma, three weeks ago.

The source said when South African President Jacob Zuma visited Zimbabwe during the coalition talks between Zanu PF and the MDC, he discussed at length, matters ranging from the British media’s personal attacks on his private life during the recent visit to the United Kingdom and the need to expedite South African land reform.

It is at this stage that Mugabe converted Zuma into his camp, and the two leaders agreed to join hands in actively assisting each other in the land reform and indigenisation process.

This week, a high-level delegation in the South African security forces, intelligence and media with close links to the ruling party ANC are travelling to Zimbabwe and they will spend three months training at the Zimbabwe National Army’s Staff College.

Senior Zimbabwe National army officers who led Zimbabwe’s land invasions will train their South African counterparts and impart knowledge based on their experiences.

A source said, South African land invasion factor is the reason why Zimbabwean President Mugabe has identified Jabulani Sibanda as the prefered choice to lead the Zimbabwe War Veterans Association in the association’s reported power struggles.

Sibanda's speaks Ndebele and this is an important factor in his abilities to communicate with South Africa's ANC land invadors, the source said.

Zanu PF Youth League national secretary for administration Leslie Ncube said Malema was visiting Zimbabwe to discuss and share ideas on "youth empowerment and revolutionary tactics".

"The ANCYL president will be arriving next week. It will be a three-day visit and other executive members of the ANC youth league will accompany him," Ncube said.

The Zanu PF youth official said the ANC and his party have enjoyed cordial relationships that date back to the liberation struggle adding these ties would be further strengthened by Malema’s visit.

"We share the same revolutionary history and they (visiting delegates) are coming to learn from our agrarian reform and indigenisation.

"The ANC is about to expand its land reforms, and we will share advice and discuss how resources should be equitably distributed to the youth and also how they can benefit from natural resources such as mining," Ncube said.

Speaking to South African media, Gugule Nkwinti, the Minister of Rural Development and Land Reform accused white farmers of scuttling the land reform programme by frustrating government’s willing buyer willing seller policy through inflating prices.

He warned South Africa risks sinking into chaos as the patience of new black farmers is running thin as evidenced by sporadic farm invasions.

"If South Africans who own land  don’t recognise the reality on the ground  and can no walk the mind with government in terms of what is proposed right now then in fact they are the ones who will be responsible for creating conditions of chaos which can be worse than what has been witnessed in Zimbabwe," said Nkwinti.

Africa’s economic giant needs R 75 billion to acquire 80 million hectares of land by 2014 but this target will not be reached as national coffers are running dry as a result of a litany of service delivery issues that needs to be addressed such as a long housing back log, water and electricity deliveries to millions of households.

Nkwinti said the South African government is working on a policy aimed at addressing the land inequalities urging farm owners to be more flexible in land redistribution negotiations.

He said the new policy is about preventing going the disastrous way of distributing land like the one witnessed in Zimbabwe where President Robert Mugabe’s government forcibly took land from previous white owners in chaotic scenes that left many dead since the inception of the programme in 2000.

"This about preventing Zimbabwe," said Nkwinti.

He did not elaborate on whether his government will consider amending the constitution to enable it to forcibly take land like what happened in their northern neighbours where the government had to pass legislation to change the constitution allowing it to compulsorily acquire land from white farmers.

Nkwinti said just like in Zimbabwe where about 4000 white farmers owned most of the country’s arable land, land in South Africa is concentrated in the hands of a few land owners, most of whom are foreigners.

"We have a major monopoly of land ownership in South Africa and we must break that monopoly," said Nkwinti.

Nkwinti earlier this month told parliament that the government was adopting a "use it or lose it" policy to encourage increased production capacity but his weekend comments appear to be a shift towards a more radical policy.

Thousands of poor black South Africans, most of whom still live in abject poverty because of the apartheid era system are waiting for land promised at independence in 1994 and often repeated in campaign speeches by current President Jacob Zuma in his quest for political office last year.

Just like Zimbabwe, South Africa inherited an unjust land ownership system from the apartheid governments which parceled out all the best farm land to white farmers, leaving blacks to arid land not fit for agricultural purposes.

The South African government has in the past said it will not go it the Zimbabwe way and often move quickly to crush land related protests and attempts at invading farms owned by white farmers though it has largely been unable to stop farm murders but this time it appears it is starting to feel the people power.

Farm seizures are blamed for plunging Zimbabwe – once a net exporter of the staple maize grain – into severe food shortages since 2001 after black peasant farmers resettled on former white farms failed to maintain production because the government failed to support them with financial resources, inputs and skills training.

Kudzi, the only 'god' that will describe what you are saying is Satan.
With your war cries of 'pasi na jesu, Pasi na Jesu' during your liberation from freedom to slavery and beggars currently, you chased away the only real God in this world,Jesus Christ. What land did the Africans in South Africa have ? The Afrikaners bought Natal, bought and fought for Free State and Transvaal. That is why the Matabeles in Zimbabwe, now MDC territory are staying exactly there; - because Shaka drove all the Africans away during the Dfeqane, or Mfeqane, you moron.

Well said Pieter. God Almighty with his Angels will deal with them anyway. As if the farmers of SA dont know what happened in Zim they think we are sitting ducks! A pushover? They have a massive big surprise coming. There are nothing more dangerous than a Boer who has lost everything (or about to loose everything). What can the War Veterans teach the ANC? Sticks and stones?? Please!

SA is NOT Zimbabwe. We will kill anyone who tries to steal what does not belong to them. We will kill the kaffers on our farms, and once we've driven them off, we will hunt them down in their squatter camps. Do NOT think we will stand idly by and watch this nonsense happen in our country. The ANC will unleash a civil war that they wont win.

What they forget to mention is how many black people are employed and housed on white owned farms. They get fed, they get transport, they get housing and their whole families get housed and even schools are built to educate the children. Now what will happen to these families if the land gets taken over by force? Which is better to kill your fellow country men by starving them of food, knowledge and other resources or just to say say this land now belongs to someone other than a white farmer?

the nerve of you white racist boer hypocrites. you all are talking about starting a war to fight for the same freedoms,and rights that you denied the black people of southern africa of for over 300 years.

that is true correct? that you whites did not allow the blacks over there any human rights at all. for all of you morons who are talking about defending "whats yours" just remember they now have fughter jets and tanks, you whites do not. and also remember that no one is going to come running to help you former members of Ian Smith or the apartheid regime.

do yourselves a favor and take the poster Gregory's advice and leave peacefully. it is not worth you all dying for land that you all or your ancestors stole in the first place.

and as far as rebuilding europe and the west,remember this fact,europe and the west are NOTHING without the resources that africa has. you all will come to them before they go to you all. good luck with your move.

@Chris,this is way this place is stuffed up, people like you. Tell me who did your ancestors steal the land from? The original inhabitants of southern Africa were the bushmen, hots, koi and san people, thats is before the north African hordes arrived. History is always written by those in charge.

@Mbeki, thank you I agree. People overseas have too much to say making life difficult for all of us here. Everybody (black and white) who speaks of war have never been in one. Nothing romantic about it, taking a life is a nightmare one lives with forever.

jeff you can harp off whatever stories that you want to lie and tell your gran kids. but here is one fact that you cant debate. the black indigenous people of southern africa were there before the dutch east india ships and the poms arrived to colonize them.

then the whites there made them last class citizens in their own homeland.land that the indigenous people owned was taken by force and given to whites simply because they were white.

you can tell whatever kind of history that you want.but dont lie to the rest of the world and claim that none of the above mentioned ever happened. and remember the settlement from 1994 included land reform also.

Both this article and the following comments chill me to the bone. I hope the article is untrue - if the SA government has not yet seen & recognised how the Zim land reform process has resulted in plunging the country into abject poverty and famine, then they are truly blind - or perhaps just in ignorant/delusional denial. Young black farmers are only now starting to learn commercial farming techniques from Agri-SA and the like, so they will be woefully unprepared to just take over the process completely and make a good go of farming.
I will add the last - something like this forced land reform is quite possibly in the pipelines. In the Western Cape, Eden area the government was encouraging all farmers to register for water/food aid for the drought. They were only going to give aid to 200 farmers, but they insisted that all farmers in the area register anyway, giving full records and details of their farms and its contents. In retrospect that makes me uneasy now.

I actually can not believe this.you kno the youth in this country are doing perfectly fine,getting on with other races and dont feel uncomfortable around each other and now the older generation that are holding grudges are unleashing a wild dog.the youth are going to get influenced by these people and generations to follow will not live in peace.my personal point of view how can any government be so selfish and uncaring towards their people and let this even happen.oh wait i remember,they don't care about us young people who have a future,and to be quite honest im in grade 10 and i have a higher education than most of the people in goverment department and i actually cant believe that these people are running this country,im even more qualified than our president,HEY VOTE FOR ME!IM BLACK AND GOT A GRADE 10!!!!.this is a beautiful country and i wounldnt want it to end up like zim, and i wont be back down i love this country too much and i will fight for it to remain a rainbow nation and we can all live in peace!

lol.. chris... you speak as though countries like america, australia and new zealand were always in the hands of the white ppl... the natives of those countries died as well... and their land was stolen... forcibly. so don't sit on your high horse and judge what went on here. the only reason you have an opinion on this is because you were alive to witness it. but many people of colouor died in your country and you so quickly forget them. i don't like or believe in our government but it isn't because he is black. I will respect any president that delivers on his promises and puts the needs of his people before his own. the world has yet to see a president like that. i am tired of seeing innocent children going to bed starving and feeling unsafe in their shacks and homes. We are all south africans and we all deserve the right to live in a country that we love and want to build up together. stop passing judgement - the only suffering you know is what you see on tv and perhaps when mcdonalds doesn't have your favourite meal readily available. fix your own country before you interfere in ours. And finally - where ever you live - it isn't yours either then - because somewhere along the line your ancestors were brought there.. but you are very quick to forget that.. come to africa and see if you are man enough to survive

F****n dumb blacks could not figure out the wheel before Jan van Riebeech came here with a ship. If it was'nt for the white man they would still be chasing each other half naked over the fields with a knopkieries like a bunch of baboons. The white man WILL take over SA and clean the whole southern part of Africa. It's written in the prohpecies. Zuma was told he should leave the white man alone but he will not listen and the white man will destroy him and the rest of southern Africa - Then and only then will Africa awake, when it's rid of the black cancer killing it now.

Blacks seems to be dreaming. Show me one black country that have independence that are economically sound. One classical example is Haiti, 200 years of dependance, and they look like zim. South Africa was built up with the brains of whites and the labour of blacks. But we invented the wheelbarrow, which they have supposedly pushed claiming to build up this country.

Those who believe that whites stole land, don't know history. Whites TRADED land from the bantu tribe who STOLE it from the bushmen. But just like the bantu tribes are, their culture is one of deception and lies, and built on principles of theft. So lets give all our land back to the bushmen, and send the bantu tribes back where they belong in their godforsaken countries in central africa!

Whites did not steal any land. They did not know about theft until they came to Africa, just to find that their livestock gets stolen from the land that they bought from the tribes.

For all that I care, after all the racist comments from Blacks, is that whites must leave Africa and take their innovation, cancel all the financial support, medicinal support, food support, trades and all knowledge. Leaving Africa to die on its own! Then blacks can continue to be racist between each other.

It is not our fault that you are behind. The moment you realize it, you will get ahead!

Give the land to the bushmen as the bantus don't deserve it!

as a white South African female, born in Johannesburg: he who is innocent must throw the first stone! all of you - black and white - you think you are the only ones living with racism. Racism is world wide. Its not really racism. It's that we are different to one another. Why destroy everything that we all have? For who? Fight by the sword and you will die by the sword. All of you racist IDIOTS - black and white. You are all equally stupid.

I hope all the racists of the world kill each other, so the rest of us can live without your crap that you fill your own lives with. Happy Fighting! No war has ever been won. IDIOTS!!!!!!!

As for those Idiotic black people who wish to 'take back their country' : well you can have it. I can just pack up and move on - start over, start a new successful company, in another country. Without you. EASY. Show me a African country that is ruled by an African that has not sucked its own people to the bone... and I will apologise. But there is none! You want the same. Have it. You dumb ass idiots too! You pissing in the wind brothers!

Doctor Albert Schweizer – that humanist – par excellence, summed up Africa after devoting a lifetime to the blacks. “I have given my life to try to alleviate the suffering of Africa but there is something that all white men who have lived here must learn and know – that these individuals (the Africans) are a sub-race. They have neither the intellectual, mental or emotional ability to equate or to share with the white man any of the functions of our civilization for wherever a white man seeks to live among them as their equal they will either destroy him or devour him and they will destroy all his work. Let any white man who would come to help Africa remember that he must continually retain his status as master and they, the inferiors, like children that you would help or teach. Never fraternize with them as equals, never accept them as your social equals or they will devour you, they will destroy you.”

Sorry for letting you live propserous lifes! Sorry for giving u education, Sorry for giving u roads, health,food and other benifits!

WAKE UP AND SMELL the coffee u kill innocent white people for what reasons??? Because you want the land! UR barbaristic!

Do yourself a favour go to your own history books and have a look at what chaotic country SA was before the Whites! Native tribes killed each other and was pushed back into africa, Only The Xhosas and kois was present in Africa due to the Xhosa threat.

I can’t see the point of fighting each other if we know what we want.
It’s clear that whites and blacks have one thing in common “We cant and don’t want to get along” Forcing us to live together only puts more tension in racial relations. Why don’t we use what we have in common and put it into prospective?
Give us whites our own land where we can live without fear and suppression and you can have a land with no whites. You want us to leave and we want to go but we have no ware to go to.

The best part of it all is, this chaos that is being created, is just that, it is being created. There is a much bigger plan in process.

Civil war....maybe....I sure as hell hope not. As much as I think I am capeble of taking a life, I don't want to test it. I don't want to live the life's I see so many men live after having been in a war, having seen friends die crusemly next to them, in their arms.

I don't want any of this. I love this country, this continent. I would love to be able to see more of it. I'd love to be able to walk the streets at night and not watch every dark alley and every dark corner and look over my shoulder.

BUT, unfortunaly, when the rich wage war its the poor and young who die.

So, who is the rich and why should we play into their hands.

The best part of it all is that democracy is flawed...it has a flaw, and that flaw is used by individuals. Democracy only works is everyone is honest. Unfortunately that is not the case is it. That is why we see it so often, in every democrazy (yes...demo-crazy) that the losers, criminals, and corrupters always win.

I wish for peace. I do not focus my mental energies on war. I refrain from these news items. Not because ignorance is bliss. But when you focus on the negative, its easier to accept and run. But when you focus on the good, when evil happens, you stand up stronger. You will fight for what is good.

I just hope we wont fight. I do not want to loose my friends, my family, or my pets.

Malema, bugger off. ANC....I wish I could say do your job, but then again, you are doing it....taking for yourself.

As a Scotsman who has been travelling to SA since 1973, I just felt I would like to make a comment on this subject. I know I do not live in your country but feel a great love for it and it's people. I considered moving to SA as it is one of the most beautiful countries I have ever been to, but the security issues worry my wife.
I walked the streets of Cape Town in 1973 and while speaking with a black man in the street I endured lots of abuse from whites as they thought I was one of them not a 17 year old Scotsman who did not understand Apartied. I returned to SA many times between then and the day of the elections in 1994, seeing lots of changes during this time. It was ironic that my flight was due to land in Durban on the day of the elections and I was told to re-schedule as "blood would flow in the streets" but I just felt this would not happen and as you know it didn't. Since that day I have asked some white SA friends, 'was it as bad as you thought it would be' when the blacks got back into power and most admitted it was not. While in Durban some time after, I worked closely with a Zulu guy and as we sat next to each other on a wall at the end of a day, having a Coke and some Bunny Chow we reflected that this probably would not have been possible in years gone by. I have closely followed the SA situation over all of these years, as I feel a great love for your country.
As a very interested outsider looking in, I just hope this land reclamation does not go ahead as you only have to look at Zimbabwe to see how wrong that can go. Changing the 'bread basket of Africa' into a country that no longer exports and can not even look after it's own needs. When the white farmers and their families were chased or even killed so that so called War Veterans could take their farms over, it was the start of the downfall. The blacks that took over these farms had no idea how to run and manage them so they quickly fell into disrepair. As someone said earlier, the white farmers provided housing, work,education and looked after these black families who worked on their farms.
You may say who is this European that has an opinion on the running of our country..........believe me it is only out of love for your country that I felt compelled to write this.
Good luck to SA and I hope Mugabe is not able to influence Zuma to carry out these reclamations of land.

I have given my life to try to alleviate the sufferings of Africa. There is something that all white men who have lived here like I must learn and know: that these individuals are a sub-race. They have neither the intellectual, mental, or emotional abilities to equate or to share equally with white men in any function of our civilization. I have given my life to try to bring them the advantages which our civilization must offer, but I have become well aware that we must retain this status: the superior and they the inferior. For whenever a white man seeks to live among them as their equals they will either destroy him or devour him. And they will destroy all of his work. Let white men from anywhere in the world, who would come to Africa, remember that you must continually retain this status; you the master and they the inferior like children that you would help or teach. Never fraternize with them as equals. Never accept them as your social equals or they will devour you. They will destroy you.
This has usually been presented as something "said shortly before his death" without any definite source, but appears to be entirely spurious. The "FAQ about the life and thoughts of Albert Schweitzer" asserts "This quote is utterly false and is an outrageously inaccurate picture of Dr. Schweitzer’s view of Africans. Dr. Schweitzer never said or wrote anything remotely like this. It does NOT appear in the book African Notebook." This refers to some citations of it being from Afrikanische Geschichten (1938), which was translated as From My African Notebook (1939) by Mrs. C. E. B Russell.

Chris Chris Chris,,, you dumbass. I (a mining engineer) really disagree with your uninformed statements that the west needs our resources. This is incorrect, please go read a book or something, we are not a major producer of any mineral anymore.. and, frankly speaking, without the Europe and even influences from the east you blacks would properly rot like your brothers in Somalia or Congo, or well, any African country. And, just by the way, if the shit hits the fan, I would accept the shitter job that was offered to me in Canada… on the other hand, I would see you on CNN dying on the blunt side of an panga, enjoy dear dumbass

I was shocked by the content of the article. Then I started reading the comments. What is this - a racist forum? I've never seen so many people full of hatred. This more than any land repatriation is the most disgusting thing I have ever read. Racist buffoons all of you.

after reading the post by all of the white supremacist that posted here it is no wonder that the rest of the world shunned you all before the fall of apartheid.

you whites built nothing in the name of freedom and democracy. everything that you whites did was in the name of white supremacy. all of southern africa was full of the likes of terre blanche.

go ahead and start a civil war because of the death of a white bigot that lived in black africa,just dont depend on us or anybody else to come and help you all out when you get slaughtered.

in case you havent noticed,they are in charge of the military now. they dont need a MK wing anymore,they have fighter jets now.and when they run you all into the ocean dont come crying to us or any other country that you are being oppressed.

you all talk really tough, but you all are lucky that there was a political settlement in 1994,they would have killed you all off then or ran you all out of the country. go to bloody hell back to Amsterdam

@kim

how can anyone love with the hate that the white people of southern africa have?
they have always been this way and will never change. winnie mandela was right about them,mandela should have kicked them all out after 1994.

but where would they go? what country would take them in? whoever does take them in will immediately get the stigma of supporting the remnants of apartheid.

the world knows what the white people of southern africa has always been.it just took the death of one racist to show it.

Chris from reading ur comments, forgive me if im wrong but have u ever lived in South Africa? and i dnt mean a holiday or for a few mnths or years? The reason y people take shit into their own hands is becos people in other countrie turn a blind eye to other's cries, people like u. In my experience, people abroad are ignorant to wot REALLY happens and happened in SA during and after apartheid. Even African history is wrong, even the history taught in african schools is wrng,the people who fight for their socalled history have even rewritten it in their favour, as said above, history is written by the winners and its 100% true. People hear abt apartheid but they dnt knw wot really happened then, they think it was like in america where the black people were 100% separated, but people forget that black people worked along side white during the apartheid even in the police force.There are also many untold stories which were covered up to make the whites look even worse, like one i know of where a massive black insurgance boarded a train with machettes and were bound to go off and kill every white person they could, thousands of lives were saved thru the interception of that train. I'm not racist, i have many non-white friends and we all agree the way SA is going was not hw things were promised to turn out, in my opinion Mugabes regime has become fashion in africa. This isn't abt race anymore becos killings occur within race as well as across. If my family were offered free refugee status to the uk id tell them they'd b stupid not to take it and id shoot them myself if they didnt take it. I fear for the lives of my family over there everyday becos i knw its not a joke when people say they llive with a gun next to their bed, my mother did too when we were young. So before u run ur mouth CHRIS some empathy and understanding, people like u r the reason y leaders like mugabe are allowed to do wot they do, or hitler to do wot he did or even saddam hussein and pol potz among other tyrant leaders. U obviously have no cooking clue, and i bet if u had loved ones living there u wud sing a different tune. Y dnt u go there and be ur charitable self in SA, shake hands with the people who won the "struggle", i can tell u that black and white man alike will turn their backs on u. Again i say this isnt race anymore, this is pure greed and malice.

I've just about had it with the judgement of being a white south african. I cannot change the past i especially did not create, and neither can i change the colour of my skin, besides maybe with tattoos, but thats a different subject. What I'm getting at is, people abroad who point the finger without REAL justification behind their accusations and prejudice should really learn to shut their big yaps, if it weren't for the european settlers africa wud've never been considered ANY class of citizen and probably wud've only reached their peak iron age equivalent now, if not still be in their equivalent of the neolithic period. Europe was just fortunate enough to be more advanced at the time they began to discover other lands, and by god sometimes i wished they'd just kept their curiosity at bay, and let the rest of the world take its natural course. Humans are humans, greedy and simple and theoretically shudnt even be dominant due to their self destructive ways. But DONT point ur finger at me, DO NOT tell me that we as white south africans are in the wrong, the ANC are no better than our forefathers were this is apartheid reversed, and if thats hw its gonna be let to be then every jewish person has the right to mutilate and torture and kill every german they want, becos their grandparents were probably hitler supporters.

Oh did i mention that, Chris i find ur comments highly offensive and ur no better than the so called "white haters" as u like to put it and the ANC all put together. Where is ur justification? Where is ur qualification? u are putting up an argument against thousands of white, black, pink, blue, purple and green south africans, after all we are MEANT to be the rainbow nation, and in some places we are, equally against this take over, need anybody need reminding that mugabe even kicked his own people out of his country, i personally knw of a black zimbabwean woman who fled for her life across the borders to south africa, hw can u justify that hey chris??????????????? have an excuse for that too? blacks killing black people with as much hate and malice as they have for us whites? brothers killing brothers????hmmm????

@siobhan

oh yeah the whites of south africa let the black people there have great jobs alright. house servants and maids and gardeners. and the few black police officers that were allowed to join the force were simply there just to inform on the ANC at the time of apartheid.

you talk about history? your doing a pretty good job yourself of trying to change history dont you think. you white people in south africa are responsible for the environment that you all live in today.

are you aware of the number of black people that were murdered during apartheid without any charges ever being brought against the white attacker? are you aware of the number of rapes that were conducted by the white afrikaaners there without any charges being brought to the white attackers?

how do you think that the cape colored population was spawned? it wasnt black people raping the whites that for sure.
you white people over there are simply reaping what you have sewn.

you seem to also forget that just sixteen years ago the black people there had no rights at all.and you were o.k with that right? I hope you dont think that all has been forgotten in just sixteen years. if so,then you should go to the U.K. because things are going to get worse before they get any better for the whites over there.

and no one is going to come to your rescue.

Many farms in SA have been bought by gov and handed to new black owners. Once very productive, 95% of these farms are now unproductive. The same for Zim where they now are looking into the eyes of the West (whites) to save them from their own greed. Every country on this continent in blacj hands are either at war or have gone miserably backwards. We see this now in SA. While the "struggle" is supposedly over the blacks are incites hatred by chanting "kill the boer". This gives fuel to a new breed of racial hatred. The ANC has been ruling since 94 but this country has systematically gone backwards. The blacks have infiltrated gov by means of BEE. Here service delivery has gone backwards and corruption thrives. While all of this is going on the tolerance of whites are being tested to the utmost. The ANC is a cancer spreading in this country, consuming everything in its path. When nothining is left they will too, like Zim say "eish" the West must bail us out. The ANC must be warned that they must be very afraid of the man that has nothing to loose. When you have taken everything we have worked for the minority will show the majority how frightening life can be - just like in the past!!

I’m ashamed to call myself a South African when I read these comments. What happened to us? Where are our hopes and aspirations to become one of the best nations in the world? Where are our leaders that are supposed to inspire us? What happened to them? It’s time that our “leaders” get out of their fancy villas and come together to find solutions for our poverty problem. In fact we all need to get off our arses and start doing something about it. We should stop pointing fingers. How can we call ourselves proudly South African when the majority of our people are starving in squatter camps? Are we really that selfish? Our country cannot grow and move forward if we don’t do something about it. Theft, violence, racism and all those things will continue if we don’t come up with a solution. Land invasions are not the solution – anyone that believes that is a fool. Come on people, we have such a wealthy country, we can share and there is plenty for everyone. Our parents made the mistakes, don’t let us repeat it.

Chris, you are indeed a dumb fuck... never heard such bull shit before! You are the reason why a lot of White people hate Blacks. And to those Whites that are calling for war, you are just as stupid. In fact, the white Afikaner is almost as dumb as the blacks they hate so much! Not all whites are Boers and were involved with the apartheid regime, most of us were too young to understand what it was and that it was wrong! So all you idiots, especially ons that have never lived in Southern Africa, keep your bloody mouths shut, you are just making things worse. But here are a few facts that cannot be ignored. Africa is way behind in many ways (unfortunately Black people are notoriously lazy!), and most of the Black people are not capable of sucessfully managing anything. I am really hoping that with time this will change, but in the meantime businesses and farms have to be run efficiently, so skill, not colour should be the deciding factor as to who run the place. Because if the economy fails, then no one wins. As for land ownership, ho many people in Europe can afford to own land? Lets be realisic, every country in the world has rich, middle class and poor, and it's the uneducated, lazy and stupid that are usually the poor, no matter what colour. Here it just happens to be the Blacks, as they are the majority!!!! And Chris, there are more Black peeps driving fancy cars thatn Whites, I have an ancient old piece of shitty car, I have no medical aid, I don't onw my house, the Bank does (and will take it back if I can't pay!), and I can't sell the place as no one will buy it since it is near a FILTHY NOISY BLACK SQUATTER CAMP. And as a middle aged white woman I cannot even get a decent job anymore, I don't have too many choices left. I would love to leave, but to go where, permanent residence is had to get in America and Australia, I could go to Europe, but the Economy is not exactly great there either, and I would probably have to learn another language and I am too old for that (45y) and I have kids, so that complicates things even more! So Chris you idiot, what would you suggest people like me should do, lie down and get killed because of idiotic comments by peeps who don't have a clue!! Oh, one more thing, usually it is the minorities that are protected, but here the Blacks are so arrogant and stupid that they want to be protected. Even American Blacks that I have met have been shocked at just how dumb, lazy and totally incapable the Black population is in Africa. I am not saying they are not nice,I know plenty of really nice people of colour, but the bad and stupid far out number the good! And as a minority Group White person I am sick and tired of supporting the lazy, useless masses, why must I pay taxes? There is not much benefit to me, the only ones that benefit are the likes of the shit head Malema and the idiot Zuma and their evil followers. The roads are full of pot hols, water is getting dirtier by the day as the purification plants are not maintained, electricity supply is regularily interrupted as they are incapable of regular maintenance or getting coal to the power stations on time, Cholera is back again, as the rest of he African Niggers come to SA to look for a better life as they have succeeded to destroy the rest of the African continent, AIDS is rampant bacause our idiot President Zuma tells the people there is nothing to worry about as long as they have a shower after sleeping with an AIDS infected person, and all this while he gets himself more wives, lovers and children, which the WHITE minority has to maintain since the Black majority is not clever enough to keep the economy running! When the White leave the Blacks will die in SA as they have done in the rest of Africa... or perhaps the Chinese will see this as an opportunity and take over Afica, as they are doing bit by bit, and I'm not sure if that wll be a good thing, because they have less human rights principles than any nation in the world! Then the Blacks will be crying to have us back!!! So you dumb FUCK Chris, why don't you swap with me and live here(oh, and you never did answer that question, WHERE DO YOU LIVE?). But Africa is not for sissies, so I doubt you'd stay for long!
Oh, and to MOST of you on this forum, why don't you go back to school and learn to spell and use punctuation (wish I could highlight all the mistakes)and please refrain from using sms/texing 'language', it's just another step to stupidity and illiteracy!! And instead of picking up weapons to kill people, rather read some books and educate yourselves, and that goes for Black and White, as the White kids of SA are not as well educated as in the past! Oh, that's because schools were integrated and the standards lowered so that Blacks could pass. Now you only need 35 - 40% to pass a subject, that is just pathetic!!! Oh, and I sooooo hope that some Government idiots like Zuma, Malema, Mandelas and the Msimangs read this, I so wish I had their e-mail or postal addresses! And to those few that are trying to do a good job, keep it up, hopefully it will be noticed and recognised one day.
HAPPY EASTER ALL OF YOU

Chris, You all hold on what happened and even some whites as well, that is the hoge problem with both of us. Concentrate on now and the future, how we can make this work, but instead all are digging out what was passed, we can't change it, you can't even say you were part of the struggle because you were too young, but because you hear what happened in the apartheid you got a big mouth. Shit did happened but it is passed. Malema say no one can take his history for singing Kill the boer, but the big picture is you have taken awoy the whole afrikaaner history, doing that you have taken away your own history. You cand cut and paste history like you want it, it happened, nothing can be done but we can change what is to come.

Killing Eugene terre’ blanche was one thing, chopping him up was a statement. Malema says now that he's life is in danger. He’s right - He says it is his heritage to sing kill the Boer- well my heritage is to call a KAFFIER a KAFFIER, BLOOD FOR BLOOD, the kaffier drew blood, now its time for pay back. South Africa is not Rwanda here we fit back.
GOD is watching and will protect his people, watch the news every time a Boer is killed by Kaffiers there is a taxi crash killing the occupants.

Gavin, you're not helping... and 'nameless', you are right history is history, good or bad... just look at all the atrocities committed in Europe in the past! And they are still in the history books, the Germans didn't just delete the fuck-up that Hitler made... it is still history and they recovered rather well, but then again, Germans have brains, can't say the same for the majority of Africans.
Oh, and this nonsense of changing names of cities and streets... and airports!!! WTF, do they know what it costs and how much confuion is created? And names that cannot be pronounced? Besides, most of those places were founded and financed by whites, blacks were/are not capable of creating a functioning city, they just know how to destroy it! We should give them all Sim City and Sims games to play, lol, maybe that would educate them a bit!

EDITOR - We advise you, our readers to refrain from racist comments as exhibited above.

This website is owned by blacks and all we're doing here is to report stuff good for the mankind, white or black.

If you start calling me an Ape and all sorts, then I can as well delet all the stuff and stop reporting things going on out there about you and leave you exposed to the vultures of the Dark World.

So, please grow up and discuss this issue about to revisit your country in a civilised way or else we leave you face the music on your own.

One thing you must know is, NOT everyone in South Africa or Zimbabwe belongs to ANC or Robert Mugabe's Zanu PF.

Don't say you've not been warned.

The article below is from - Thought Leader Blog - http://www.thoughtleader.co.za/siphohlongwane/2010/04/05/sorry-to-disappoint-but-south-africa-will-succeed/
........................................

Sorry to disappoint, but South Africa will succeed


I have news for you. Yes, you. South Africa is going to succeed.

I’ve come across you several times on the interwebs. You like to brand yourself as the ultimate thinking person and a visionary. The amount of energy you invest in foretelling South Africa’s doom is simply astounding. You gleefully link every article or blog post that decries corruption, lawlessness and mayhem. You rant endlessly about the ANC Youth League, about Zimbabwe and about crime. Your Caps Lock key is permanently in. Your life is going to be so much better in Australia, you roar. It may be easy for you to cynically predict our downfall, then watch things fall apart, but it’s laziness on your part. You’re far more comfortable breaking down than building up. It requires less effort, doesn’t it. To actually get up and try to make a difference is just too much effort. It’s too … plebeian. It is far more intellectually gratifying for you to shoot everyone down from the comfort and safety of your ivory tower. Well, I have news for you, buddy. South Africa is going places.

What about you? You’re a rational, logical and responsible person. You work hard, you pay tax and you bring your children up right. Everyone acknowledges how smart you. You get dinner invitations all the time. Poverty, violent crime, corruption, the scourge of HIV/Aids — you have all the answers. You know what’s best for everyone. So it is utterly unthinkable that there’s someone out there who deigns to oppose your views. Your worldview is the correct one, don’t they know? Anyone who disagrees is immediately reduced to a puerile level of intellect. You tsk-tsk at their childishness. How could anyone be so stupid, so naive? And you try your best to enlighten your foolish neighbours. You use small words and short sentences, so they’ll be able to understand. But the truth is, people who disagree with you threaten the very core of your existence. The truth is, you’ve been born and raised into a life of privilege and comfort. You didn’t ask for it, but it happened and that’s fine with you.

When Julius Malema talks about nationalising the mines, when Gugile Nkwinti talks about nationalising the land, this is not only a threat to constitutional values of property ownership, it is a threat to your way of life. The reason why these men can talk like this, the underlying causes of all of this don’t matter to you. So it is far easier to imagine that this is just Africa being Africa. I have news for you too. South Africa is going to succeed. Despite the pessimists, despite the naysayers and despite the racists among us.

We live in a difficult time. Our country is undergoing changes that seek to redress and reorder the balance of power in society. It isn’t an easy task by any measure, and the transition is upsetting a lot of people. The fact that those who are supposed to be the guardians of that transition — our government — display worrying traits of corruption and cronyism only makes things worse.

Thank God for people like David Gemmell, who choose to praise the things that are right about South Africa. People like him are everywhere. It is so easy to be pessimistic, but it is the eternal optimists among us who will save this country.

Look at all the good things that have happened over the last 20 years. This country was on the brink of civil war 17 years ago. But we’re about to host the most splendid event the world has to offer. There was no black middle class to speak of in 1994. Today, the euphemistically named black diamonds are numbered in the millions. South Africa’s economy continues to grow, despite the level of unemployment. What has been achieved so far is nothing short of miraculous. That miracle can and will continue.

Success isn’t a zero-sum game. My gain isn’t your loss. The isn’t a finite amount of achievement available. South Africa belongs to all of us. A guaranteed way to for all to succeed is for South Africa to succeed.

Take my word, South Africa will succeed.

Well said Alexander, but it really is sometimes difficult to stay positive, and it is not always easy to get on with people that have not grown up in the same way as me. I am Europen born, but have lived in SA since I was 11y old. My family and I now run a little B&B and Pub in a small town in Mpumalanga, but it is sometimes very hard. I have countless staff problems as they just don't seem to want to learn, they can do somehing right a few times and the very next day they tell me 'I don't know'.. they have no idea about customer service and cleanliness, although I drill it into their heads almost every day that without happy guests we will all be out of a job! Why oh why is it so difficult to teach 'Blacks' anything? And remember, I was not brought up to be a racist and these are not racist comments (In fact, my late father was a member of the ANC before they became a legal party!), but I would appreciate any advice in how to teach my Black staff the value of excellent service and in pleasing the customers and Guests! Even the garden help is useless, they work for you for two or three days, then want an advance or loan already and then don't pitch up for work the next day, and then you discover that thy have stolen things as well! But yet the poor blacks are crying out for jobs, money and food, but I guess it's easier to blame the Whites for their misery and expect hand-outs rather than do the work. Most weeks I work 7 days a week, 11 hous a day, as this is the nature of the business, in this industry we are busy when others are on leave, that's how we make our money, but the staff are not too willing to work on holidays... they would rather work during the week when there is less to do. But yet they want their pay, even if they saw that we had a miserable 1st quarter of the year, they still have the odasity to ask me for a loan, do I look like a bloody bank? I have not even drawn a salary and paid all my bills, but I made sure they got paid! Previously I worked in a factory, same sh!t there, not arriving at work, too babbelas/hung-over to bother, asking for loans, demanding this, demanding that, but at the same time not doing their job properly and losing the company money and clients. I have tried to teach them new things, to help them grow as people, to give them tools and knowledge for their future, but now I am tired, it seems I am wasting my time and energy. Either they are too stupid or they just simply don't want to put any kind of effort into bettering their lives, they would rather have handouts and cry about how hard they have it, and that is a sad reality. Maybe the next generation will be different, but I am not putting my hopes up just yet, as someone pointed out previously, the schooling system is getting worse and worse. When I look at my son's schoolbooks I want to cry, he is in grade 11, but some of the work they are given is so easy that it should be grade 5 work! I got out my old school book the other day, and was amazed at the level of work I was supposed to do when I was in grade 4 or 5... I think schools seriously have to look at a system of having different levels, and then instaed of bringing the level of education down, they should work on taking the 'less capable' students up to the level of the rest or grade them differently!
Anyway, I do hope SA succeeds, it is a beautiful country, and even if we don't all want to be friends with Blacks/Whites/Asians/Chinese etc, we can at least be civil to each other.
BUT... the Government must lead by example, a country is only as good as it's leadership, and unfortunately the leadership in SA (and Zim) leave a lot to be desired! So actually we should all be united in voting for a leadership that is capable, educated and has good morals, only then can we begin to re-build a strong, functioning, non-violent society.
And peeps... don't read more into the Eugene Terre Blanche murder, he was not really a nice man and I reckon his workers just got fed up with him, I doubt there is anything political behind it. Lets hope that tempers cool down and the AWB doesn't do something they will regret.

Was there a wage dispute between the workers and Ugene Terblanche – not at all? Julius Malema finds himself somewhat isolated from the main stream political views of the majority within the ANC. His political reforms are somewhat radical from the ruling party’s plans for the country.

In order to gain support for his reform, Malema started by starting a new liberation struggle, sinning songs like kill the “Boer kill the farmer”. Malema needs a new focus on his radical reforms by utilizing the age old race issue in South Africa for his political reforms in the country.

The death on the extreme right wing leader was an intended action, hoping for retaliation by the white extremist group in the country to fuel race tension in South Africa. This sort of action is what Malema is hoping for, as we know an injury to one is an injury to all especially where it is white on Black violence.

His plan is to use this support if it comes his way to press the ANC into radical land reform and nationalization of mines, businesses and banks in South Africa. Any political leader with political aspiration usually does the opposite of what Malema does, all his actions are radical and seek the support of other radical leaders, including those who find themselves in problematic situation like we saw in the athletics SA and ESKOM – where Malema used the race card to defend those who were incompetent or hiding behind lies pointed out in the media – who is suppose to be owned by the whites. By using this he wants to portray the role of savior, against the evil white owned media, business in South Africa.

Nkwinti on a collision course with the constitution

Dave Steward on the minister's dangerous new land reform proposals


NEW LAND REFORM PROPOSALS MIGHT POSE A SERIOUS THREAT TO PROPERTY RIGHTS

The land reform proposals that were outlined in parliament last week by Minister Gugile Nkwinti, the Minister of Rural Development and Land Reform have their origin in the ANC's National Democratic Revolution which calls, among other things, for "the elimination of apartheid property relations" including "the de-racialisation of ownership and control of wealth, including land".

The ANC's 52nd National Conference at Polokwane in December 2007 called for far-reaching land reform in a resolution that was highly critical of organized agriculture. It asked the government to abandon "market-driven land reform"; to review "the principle of willing-seller, willing-buyer" and to align all legislation relating to expropriation with the Constitution. It also demanded the removal of "all institutional, legislative, regulatory and tax-related policies that create a bias in favour of large-scale, capital intensive, environmentally damaging agriculture" as well as the introduction of "a special land tax and other progressive tax measures with the aim of creating incentives for the disposal of under-utilised land and the deconcentration of land ownership."

The latest proposals, which will be published in a Green Paper at the end of April, will apparently make provision for a three-tiered land tenure system comprising state land, private land and foreign-owned land. Land is to be categorized according to its use at the level of household, small holder and commercial farming. The new system will change the present ownership of private land to "freehold with limited extent" - implying that limits might be imposed on the number or the size of properties an individual may own.

The limitation on foreign ownership of land is even more ominous and is described as "precarious tenure linked to productivity and partnership models with South African citizens." In other words, foreigners will be permitted to retain part of their interest if it suits the government and if they take on local partners. In an e-TV interview on 29 March Minister Nkwinti said that he did not think that this would discourage foreign investment, since all that foreign investors required was "certainty" about government policy.

It was also clear, from the same interview, that large farms will be a major target of the new initiative. The Minister insisted that the government should break up these ‘monopolies' even though large farms, which comprise 10% of the total, produce 80% of South Africa's food. When asked whether this would not jeopardize food security the Minister replied that these farms had not always been productive and that with the right support small black farmers could be equally successful. It would be important for white farmers to co-operate with the implementation of the new proposals to help prevent an even worse outcome than Zimbabwe.

All this was based on the novel concept that, because sovereignty is defined by land, the state actually has a claim on all land in the country. (Does this mean that all those countries that recognize unrestricted freehold property rights are somehow less sovereign?) Minister Nkwinti has nevertheless denied that this is an attempt to ‘nationalise' land and has stated that he is not contemplating a constitutional amendment.

It is, nevertheless, difficult to see how these provisions could be introduced without amending section 25 of the Constitution. The proposed limitation of freehold in respect of privately owned land would require payment of fair compensation to the extent of the reduction in the value of the property Where would the state find sufficient funds to pay compensation in a system that might affect the rights of all private property owners and seriously limit the rights of foreign property owners?

In keeping with NDR doctrine, the Minister states that "All anti-colonial struggles are at the core about two things, repossession of lost land and restoring the centrality of indigenous culture....Fundamental land reforms were therefore a key catalyst in the ANC's mission to resolve inherited race and class contradictions".

Minister Nkwinti is mistaken: the struggle was not primarily about land and race, but about the establishment of a non-racial constitutional democracy based on equality, human dignity and freedom. The outcome was the adoption of the 1993 and 1996 constitutions which represented a victory for all South Africans from all our communities. The new Constitution makes ample provision for balanced land restitution and land reform while at the same time protecting the property rights of all South Africans. The fact that the government has thus far achieved such little success with its land reform initiatives may be ascribed to a large extent to its own failures and - as he admits - to the incapacity of Minister Nkwinti's own department.

The Constitution most certainly does not countenance the ‘centrality' of any single culture but proclaims unambiguously the equality of all South Africans and of all our cultures. There should be no mistake about the Minister Nkwinti's approach: what he is proposing is an assault on the property rights of sections of the population on the basis of their race and nationality. It is a frontal attack on our historic constitutional accord. Section 25 was one of the core compromises on which acceptance of the new Constitution depended. If the requirement for fair compensation for expropriated property is diluted or abandoned, the national consensus that made the constitution and the new South Africa possible, will be seriously eroded.

The Minister has committed himself to engaging rigorously with all South Africans so as to emerge with a tenure system that will satisfy the aspirations of all South Africans. We urgently need such a system, but we simply cannot afford to embark on a reform process that does not guarantee full and secure property ownership and that does not address the stark economic realities of the world in which we live.

We must await the Green Paper before we can assess the full implications of the proposed land policy. However, Minister Nkwinti's statements thus far already provide ample grounds for serious concern.

It is really sad to see the hate speech on the internet and in the press. As South Africans let us stop and remember the famous quotes by our much loved and respected Mr Nelson Mandela:

"If there are dreams about a beautiful South Africa, there are also roads that lead to their goal. Two of these roads could be named Goodness and Forgiveness".
Nelson Mandela


"We enter into a covenant that we shall build a society in which all South Africans, both black and white, will be able to walk tall, without and fear in their hearts, assured of their inalienable right to human dignity – a rainbow nation at peace with itself and the world."
Nelson Mandela, Inaugural Address, Pretoria 9 May 1994.

Nationalising land and wealt and taking something that is rightfully not yours is another, just because things take to long for your liking does not mean you can take it. Follow procedures and everyone is happy, taking something will coase friction. If you are a Black person and a white man comes inside your house with belingings which you worked hard to buy and tell you it is his now because of nationalising what would you do, Fight? But if the right precedures is followed and negotiations things can get to an acord and both parties is happy. But then again the ball is in the government's hands. There is space for all of us, just start getting along, is that too much to ask?

I am a third generation African. I am white - born that way, and will die that way. So be it. Lived in four different African countries and watched them all wilt away sadly. SA on its death bed - whether we like it or not.
I read this article and believe it is not a case of black and white - but a case of revolution over evolution. Lets look at the xenophobia in SA. When we couldnt kill whites we killed Zimbos and took their houses. Lets look at Ethiopia and Eritrea - no food but plenty of guns for years, Idi Amin in Uganda, Burundi, Chad, Zim, DRC, Darfur, Senegal, Sudan, Somalia - need I go on - REVOLUTION after REVOLUTION. Africans will kill for the hell of it - the proof is in African history. Hey in SA Shaka was doing death and colonisation too. But we forget this? When,I ask will Africans understand evolution and build their own economies - sadly not in my life time I suspect.Old Kudzi's comment is so typically African - he could come from any one of the countries I have listed hey? And me - well like the typical African if revolution comes my way - well I too am soldier - it was my first job.

Boy, oh boy, I do not like the sound, the smell of this... It makes me shiver.
The same kind of argumentation had been uttered before the French Revolution. The result? Many (very good, efficient people) went to the guillotine, nothing and nobody worked anymore, all, yes, all suffered badly and then Napoleon came. And he cleaned France, and how. You were for Napoleon or simply dead, no "inbetween". Do you want that to happen in "God's blessed Country"?

Chris - the name derived from the L. Christus, pertaining to Jesus Christ, a Jew. A man of colour, that preached peace, and forgiveness. He said, 'The greatest commandment I give unto you is that you love your neighbour as you love yourself.' This implies not only that you unquestionably love your neighbour, but that you also love yourself. If you have no love for yourself, you can attach no value to your live, your possessions or your purpose to life. It is then, that one is able to take someone's life, possesions and be a waif. You were named by parents that loved you more than themselves, obviously being African I assume by your use of the English language that you were schooled in a good higher education setting - no doubt your parents who lovingly paid for this slaved to send you here. This is how you repay them...an oracle of hate. A soothesayer of vengeance. A propagandist in an educated forum. There is no uneducated, starving, homeless person commenting in this forum - makes you think. So don't feed hate, but love your neighbour as you love yourself. But...first learn to love yourself, my friend.

People, please remember, racist extremists are always in the minority. We are a new generation and not part of whatever happened in the past. We should all focus on making this beautiful country of ours (all races), even more beautiful. Currently, we are an example to most countries. We were strong throughout this whole recession, thanks to our national credit act. We haven't had any civil war since the release of Nelson Mandela, even though it was expected. Why now, must one or two individuals stir this pot and generate negativity amongst others, with their propaganda? Don't listen to this kind of talk. We are on a good track. The Rand is becoming stronger, the 2010 world cup is around the corner and we can all flourish. we, as individuals should stand up and stand together against the criminal element. Most of us sometimes buy fake DVD's or buy branded clothing on the street corners, turning a blind eye. This is where it all starts - stop supporting all these illegal vendors! If there is no demand, there will be no supply. Don't get involved in negative conversation - be positive and influance others around you with a positive aditude!

As someone who has lost a parent to murder in SA, I'd like to say my bit here. I do not and have not ever blamed black people as a whole for my fathers murder, nor have I become a racist over it. You cannot seek revenge on a whole race or nation because of the opinions and actions of a group or individual, unless that WHOLE race or nation shares the same view, which is not the case, it never ever is in any of the conflicts in the world. Yet innocent people continue to die all around the world.

In the case of SA, land distribution, and seizing of the mines is NOT an issue of color, but an issue of WEALTH...not for the masses but for the FEW. The sooner people realize this the quicker we can move forward together. The enemy is not in SA, and it is not black nor is it white, it is much larger and complex than that. No political party, not the ANC, not ZANU PF or MDC, not even the Democratic Party in the US, or any other political party in the world for that matter cares about its people. They are only interested in peoples votes for their own wealth and power. This power and wealth (not money, but natural resources...money is not wealth, its merely printed paper) can only be achieved with two equally important elements:

1. Funding - Well this ones easy. These large global criminal elements have been around for centuries. They have had a hand in all conflicts globally for centuries. To them, the world has no boundaries. Its like a chess board, and they have more money than you and I can every dream of. Money is no object, money is not what they are after.

2. Instability of the nation - This ones the tricky part, but this is where money comes in because EVERYONE can be bought. The reason they need instability is quite simple. Keep the locals fighting amongst each other while we rape their land of its resources. Used to great effect time and time again in history. This is where the politicians do their bit, all bought and paid for ofcoarse. And in the case of Africa, the most powerful tool that politicians use to create instability is?? Yep...the "Race Card". Divide and conquer is the name of the game. It is in their best interest to create instability, remember that! Africa is rich in natural resources (as is the middle east) so there is a constant fight for power there and here. I believe we are in historic times now where a shift in the balance of power from the criminal elements in the west to the criminal elements in the east is happening. Ie from Jews and Europeans to Asians. Africans are just tools in all of this I'm afraid, so all of you who think these wars and conflict are empowering Africans, you are very sadly mistaken. Your masters are merely changing. You need a great deal of wealth and resources to pull off large campaigns, such as the ones going on in Zimbabwe, Angola, and many other countries in Africa. Africans are definitely involved, but they are much much lower down in the food chain and stand to gain only short. The elite do NOT share!

In any case, there is absolutely NOTHING NEW going on here, and no different from whats going on in the rest of the world either, and throughout history for that matter. In fact if this is news to you, you need to get educated, and fast!

Now the only reason why it is so "in your face" in Africa, is simply because it is much, much easier to influence public opinion here. This is due to the fact that most Africans are uneducated who do not understand politics and so the tactics to influence public opinion is soooo much more simple, in your face, and primitive. Quite frankly in Africa this type of propaganda works, and it works well! But only in Africa. These large criminal elements do the same in the rest of the world too, however due to the rest of the world having a larger educated population they do it in a much smarter and tactful way (mainly through schools and media - TV, newspapers, magazines, movies and such) where its not so much in your face. Majority of rural Africans don't read newspapers, watch (or even own) a TV, so ambush style propaganda, and speaking to the masses like Julius Malema does is the best and only way to achieve this. To the educated he is a fool, but to the uneducated he is a hero and saviour. Do not underestimate his power and influence! The methods are different but the agenda is the same.

So going back to SA there is only 2 ways to resolve the conflict here:
1. Rightly educating the MASSES, a small handful will not do any good at all because you need the majority see through the hidden agendas of these global criminal elements. This will empower the masses to form their own educated opinions about the real problems this country is facing and how best to solve them TOGETHER as a people. This will take years however, possibly decades to achieve.
2. A good old fashioned civil war, nothing new with this method either, in fact it is an easier and much quicker method. This will flush out the people who are too blind to see the men behind the curtain. No other options really. Now it is clear to me that there is quite a large group of these blind people in south africa already (quite possibly a majority) who are too uneducated/ stubborn/ old/ greedy/ not interested/ impatient/ (pick whichever one you want) to go through the long education and negotiation process in option 1 and want to see results right now. They are buying into the propaganda and are looking for a war...so I say lets have it. But please lets have it now so we can have it over and done with. Lets not drag this on for another 16 more years. Once the blood is shed, the smoke has cleared, and the dead of both sides of the conflict are buried, the rest of the people can begin the process or rebuilding the nation through proper education and negotiation and without the influences of the global criminal elements which screwed this country up in the first place. We do not need them if we work together as a people. This CAN be done! Africa is largely still untouched and can become an example to the rest of the world on how to live freely from the shackles of the criminal elements that have had their dirty hands in conflicts throughout Europe dating back centuries. Time for a revolution. Currently, the masses in this country cant see that they are playing right into the hands of the few people at the top who dont give a sh*t about them...and sadly I dont think they will ever see it. They need to either be educated or flushed out. There are forces at work in this country that are threatening on a daily basis to destabilize the entire nation. Its time for the rest of us who want a peaceful and democratic society to stand up and say enough is enough. We will not stand for this anymore. Mugabe and Malema are tools, so is every other politician for the matter. Its time for the people of this great nation, and I mean ALL the People of SA, to stand up together and fight for the future of this country, and for your children's future, just like our forefathers unselfishly did for us century after century. The time has come, the time is now. God Bless all.

@chris, you mentioned earlier that the Black South African's had Fighter Jets and Tanks. I am in the SAAF as a Instructor Pilot on the Gripen Jet. I have 17329 Hours on Fighter Jets. Unfortunately, we do not have competent pilots that can even pose a threat to Zimbabwe, let alone a bunch of people threatening on the ground. Ground targets are difficult to attack as if the individuals breakup it's a waste of a missile or what ever you want to deploy.

Zimbabwe's aircraft arsenal includes an estimated six MiG23s, 18 F7s (Chinese equivalent of the MiG21) and 12 Nanchang K8 fighter jet trainers and six 6 MI35 Russian attack helicopters. If we were told to intervene in Zimbabwe we would not be able to do anything because the Zimbabwe air force, which is very competent, has aircraft that can shoot down transport aircraft and carry out ground attacks, We cannot shoot down aircraft or protect our ground forces and if you cannot dominate the air you cannot operate.
The the cash crisis had led to the disappearance of the country's fighter cover and the shortage of personnel. The SAAF cannot pay the pilots and ground crew properly or fly their aircraft properly.

It is very easy to get hold of Anti-Aircraft Missiles on the "Black Market" at a very cheap price, just about anything can be bought on the "Black Market" What you should consider in your statement that nobody would come and help the "Whites" if a war broke out; Russia is no longer a communist state, they will definitely come and assist the "Whites" should any war begin, they are so desperate to get back into battle but definitely not with an African country. They would rather side with the under-dog. Test out their new equipment. I think Germany would assist the Whites too, perhaps the USA. Don't think for one minute if the ANC decided to make war against the Whites the rest of the World will sit back and watch, that won't happen. God forbid it ever does!

@Seekandfind: My deepest sympathies. And I do applaud you for you views. But not everything is political, the fact that most poorer Blacks are unable or unwilling to learn, even when they have the resources is one of the downfalls of this country, and all of Africa. They want what the West has, without the skills and hard work that goes along with it. It is what it is, and until they change and accept that they need schooling and have to work hard, there will always be crime and friction, even if the politicians were able to do the right thing for a change!
The Northern Hemisphere did not get where they are today by sitting on their asses, but a lot of Africans seem to think they are entitled to everything without the work. Tell me one great thing that was invented in Africa?

Alexander Chigumira, you stupid ignorant peanut. Your conviction can only exist on the taxi rank que where you are shuffled from one dissapointment to the next by a brainless goon that thinks his Toyota Hiace is actually a speeding ambulance of urgence. You defy the acknowledgement! The whites are now very very unhappy. We have given nothing but everything you have asked. We dont bother to vote because the inevitability is obvious. However, when the likes of Julius Malema are appointed future leaders and have actually no regard, respect, reservation for the minority of the whites that brought "the wheel" to your dark continent. Now the economy, technology, artificial intelligence and academics are a farce. A farce that is no longer going to run away. We cant go anywhere. So now your words need to see your money. You have something a bit more to realise. A ranting mob of toy toying savages are not going to succeed anymore. The whites are no longer going to sit down and be murdered, raped, side lined and intimidated by corrupt, fat, under achievers. You had your chance. You blew it. ET's murder was your own initiative. Now accept the consequences.

you white people who live in AFRICA just dont get it do you? you all seem to forget that it was the UNITED NATIONS that branded you all the evil most vile and hate filled regime ever known to man.have you all forgotten that?

we havent, look here folks,you white people over there can tell yourselves what ever you all want to believe. how can the rest of the entire free world be wrong when you all had international SANCTIONS bought upon you all for what was determined to be GROSS HUMAN RIGHTS VIOLATIONS?

are you people sick,or delusional? you mean to tell us in the free world that the UNITED NATIONS WAS WRONG? AND YOU BIGOTS WERE RIGHT? how stupid do you all sound,or are you all still the big liars that you were when you were lying to the rest of the world and denying that you were oppressing the black majority there?

you all have no clue how evil white africa is til this very day. terre blanche was a walk in the park compared to Botha and Smith and De Klerk. the reason those african countrys have failed is because of white and european interference.

are you white people over there telling me that you all dont know how Botha and Smith attempted to destabilize the newly elected govt. of zimbabwe before it was even installed?

are you all telling me that you all know nothing of the plot by Smith and Botha to kill the entire british delegation,along with Mugabe at Rufaro Stadium on April 18,1980 and blame it all on the blacks just to have Botha and the SADF illegally invade zimbabwe on the day of its independence and annex the country and then turn it over to smith again?

you white people over there are beginning to sound like the liars that the U.N. made you out to be.zimbabwe has been a failure for the last ten years because of Great Britain and america, and remember folks I live in AMERICA. YOU ALL ARE REAPING WHAT YOU HAVE SEWN, DEAL WITH IT!!!!!!!!

Some comments come from really ignorant ex-Zim or South Africans/Poms. Black mentality is always to push the blame to the "colonialist/oppressor" before thinking that he may be the master of his own fate-as is evident in sub-saharan Africa. Even now with another prominent farmer murdered it was the farmer's "evilness" and whatever BS subhuman intelligence can think of. Eugene Terreblanche's murder won't be the last and the poor excuse of a wage dispute is a cover-up for the motive of racial warmongering and who is really behind this killing and 3000 other whites killed. 300 000 people -not just whites killed the last 16 years is far more than years before 1994. Many also instigated and carried out by ANC MK Caders. After the unbanning of the ANC the MK Caders-13 000 killed police, intimidated black opposition, started necklacing in townships. False information -a '3rd Force" was reported by the media in SA and overseas (very common in Apartheid years-twisting of facts and showing blacks being "dead" on Church square while they were actually sleeping) in fact I never in 37 years saw black masses killed in Church Square Pta. If you're so ill-informed rather do yourself a favour and read Dr Anthea Jeffery's book, entitled People’s War: New Light on the Struggle for South Africa. Last point: Mandela was and is still a terrorist-never stopped the struggle it is still going on at farms and suburbs. He should have been tried and convicted for high-treason-a mistake by 60's SA high court. Now we are truly in a unconventional civil war.

We actually dont try and drag our European history of success, civilisation feats, conquering and fantastic roots of art and culture. No we are simply Africans, born and bred. Then your brethren on that Free! Democratic! Modern, Best lifestyle continent! are all hating it and missing Africa. The most uncivilised bunch of supersticious greedy neandathals in Africa who wear European fashion, cars and adopt their culture to feel worthy. Look at Zims military parades. No spears and loin clothes, but red jackets and plinth helmets. Gee wizz, how African is that? You are a joke of your own intelligence. Meet me for a coffee, and then you will feel quite silly after a minue when you look me in my eye. I dont hide behind my keyboard, or in the darkness, waiting for the whitey to fall asleep.

sorry to disappoint you sir, but I guess you forgot that after WWII Germany is not allowed to assist ANYONE without A U.N. mandate. as for america I live there, no way will our govt.help the same people that previously oppressed the black majority over there for over 300 years. and also you should google the Rangel amendment on south africa, if you honestly believe that america will help you bigots you are either a fool or an idiot. after reading the rangel amendment you will know for sure that you can expect no help from america.

and the Russians have the memory of an elephant. they remember the number of Nazi's that went undetected into saffer after WWII with assistance from your former apartheid led govt.

Nelson Mandela can pick up a phone and be on the other end of the line from ANY head of state on this PLANET. De Klerk will get "tell him I am not available" in 1990 after he was released after being WRONGFULLY incarcerated for 27 years we gave him a ticker tape parade. even had green lights on the empire state building to commemorate the ANC's struggle.

how is it humanly possible for you white people over there to think that the rest of the entire free world is wrong,and YOU ALL, the most evil and vile regime ever known to exist is right?

you people are hate filled, and are still the white supremacist from apartheid, I have seen with my own eyes, your words say it all.

@ Chris. The Rivonia trails was about the overthrow of a government with violent & terrorist means- similar in terms of violent attacks as any Al Queida/9/11 trail. So, there was no bombs and killing of white or black civilians by the ANC, and what happened in MK camps with torture of some soldiers/detainees? Your clear facts are a bit shaky. Why was Mandela till recently listed as a terrorist in your free country then? You can have ticker tape parades and green or strobe lights at ground zero a 1000 times over, some of the worst atrocities were commited after WW2 ON German citizens by US Soldiers and the government made it worse, starving millions of Germans, so don't talk to me about vile and evil.
Mandela should have been hung if he was tried for high treason. And he is nearing the end of his life, so I doubt if he could call anyone soon. I don't know what your statement has got to do with the present SA-Mandela can't do much these days, accept backing the present ANC regime.
NEWSFLASH! your world is not as free as you believe, just read about who controls the media and money in you're so-called free world. I guess Yanks realised what you are doing to sovereign countries like Iraq, Afghanistan and soon Iran when invading them with your ideas of democracy. Just by the way what happened with democracy in Zim and other states? Now RSA is heading the same way. Western democracy doesn't work in Africa.If we had a black government from the 50's or 60's SA would look like Nigeria, Mozambique, Angola- civil war, famine, religious and tribal violence. There was actually more peace in SA between races than at present-racial tension is heightened by loud mouthed ANCYL Malema-racist. Fact: We have a criminal, terrorist ANC regime, that is why they are buddy, buddy with Mugabe-always defending him, no matter if his country cannot even produce enough food for his own people, typical Africa. You clearly don't know much about Africa-rather comment about USA, maybe you know more. But it is typical of loudmouthed Yanks. In the 60's the CIA and UN buggered up in the Congo, later in Rwanda. Yanks could not win a war in Vietnam. Much the same in Afghanistan and Iraq now. So where is Osama?

Another thing Chris.
You can crap on your hands and fling dung in every direction you want, blacks this... whites that..., its all history.

Man people of every creed have done horrendous things both black and white we all read in amazement, but really harping on and on about everything thing in Africa is the white mans fault, is well.... stupid, don't you think?

As if the white 'demon' as your see them' did nothing useful in this world.
Come to the west and be amazed and get out of your swamp.
Sure nobody's perfect, and we sold our own people to them in the North as slaves you forget? does that matter now? no it does not.

I moved away from Africa, and found these whites to be quite nice people overall, And they have helped me become very successful, you know what your problem is Chris?
You have an inferiority complex, you know your just a lame ass, and its easier to blame someone else.
No point threatening me unless your Donkey can swim 12000 km. LYAO

@observer

very valid points observer about the crimes of the U.S.observer. but your deeming mandela a terrorist is an opinion,just like a 9mm hand gun here in america,everybody has one of those.

remember observer, one mans terrorist,is another mans freedom fighter. I believe Ben Franklin spoke those words after he along with George Washington, Thomas Jefferson and so forth were deemed terrorist by King George the third.

and then Golda Mier said the same thing after Neville Chamberlin, or was it Churchill that branded the founding fathers of the Jewish state terrorist? oh well all the same, but I am sure that you get my drift.

to you and the supporters of apartheid he is a terrorist,but to the rest of the free world he is freedom fighter, has to be, all of our presidents since 1990 has said so, correct?

@ CHRIS I WAS 5 FUCKING YEARS OLD WHEN APARTHEID ENDED! and do u have any idea of the jobs black people get nowadays OBVIOUSLY NOT, maids???????? gee id love to be a maid in SA, by law they must be provided a medical aid, a minimum salary of thousands, free food, free housing and and and and anyway, maids? most people dnt have a maid cos they cnt afford it. Everytime u comment u prove ur ignorance, the heirarchy of job positions is in favour of the black man, allow me to explain a short example. If an employer had 5 people for a job position, 1 black woman, 1 black man, a disabled man, an other non white and a white man. By law the employer has to favour the black man, then the black woman then the other non white, then the disabled THEN the white man, why do u continue to argue and put summin down u have no idea about. Due to BEE ALL companies have to have a minimum of a certian % of all employees to be black. Not non white, black. So fuck off with ur ideas that all black people work as maids or gardners, most people never ever had a maid let alone a garden boy in their life. Why cant u just accept that my generation of white south africans are actually trying to live together regardless of race, and most of which are colourblind. The fuckers u r attacking us for are fucking 70 years old and the people that promised equality are going so far as going against basic human rights. And as for the cape coloureds population as u so put it, dnt be naive foreigners are just to blame for their outbursts, white foreigners are in love with the idea of fucking a black person, they do today and they did back then, and whose to judge em right? u may slp with who u like, but back then rape was 150% LESS over 50 years during then than 14 yrs after. Rape is wrong regardless of colour, but dnt put the torch to the heads of the people who dont deserve this, do u hate germans? hitler persocuted the black man as well as the jews, as well as homosexuals? wot abt the australians and how they treat the aborigines TODAY, u want an opressed race there u are go fuck around on an aussie site, cos africa doesnt need anymore twats like u to look upon the african countries like a septic sore.

here is one thing that you cant deny or debate, (I hope anyway) apartheid was evil,and the people that supported apartheid are still alive today.and when it comes to evil,sorry to say this to you,but your past is also your future,because that is all that evil knows. they will never change.

@ siobhan
i think you're forgetting one other possible person in ur short example - WHITE WOMAN.. look at most corporate companies even today and whites are still in more executive positions than any other race group. only this time, instead of them shopping or in the hair salons, as was the case during the apartheid years, they are now in the boardrooms, and their white husbands are not. So dont give chris the wrong example here. white women are still classified as disadvantaged so are still sitting at the top of the food chain. most of your generation of whites are still as racist as your forefathers.only difference now, is that you hide behind the fact that you werent old enough to experience apartheid. how many black, colored or indian close friends do you have? i'm sure you dont have any or if you do, then its really just as a pretense. this country has a long way to go before racism will be completely eradicated. 16years is nothing.

@Imc it was a quick short explanation to nobrains above u there aka chris and for ur information i have many non white friends most of which i went to school with and still greet and chat when i go back to SA and also many white friends with non white partners, so dnt judge me before u knw me. If u have read my posts before u will see that i do not support apartheid, hw can one be expected to follow summin they never experienced????????? im a scientist and not one to follow wot i am told and i am agnostic so not one to believe something until experienced or researched and proven, AND neither do i support wot the ANC is doing either, two wrongs dnt make a right. You will also see that in my past posts i state that this is no longer a racial thing, because the problems in SA effect all races there, shud jews now be allowed to put up concentration camps to put germans in??????????wot wud the world say?
@Chris again I say most of us are too young to have any say in the matter of apartheid. We are joined both black and white against Zanu and JM, if we are so racist hw can we do this together? iv had debates with, WITH not AGAINST black people and they all agree that wot they are doing is no better and we all cnt believe hw the people of the world excuse it. as i say again two wrongs dnt make a right. And chris its a bit annoying hw u go to a country for a few months and deem urself an expert on it, iv been in britain for years and i still cnt claim to knw the inner workings of the country and im working within the law side of the country

you were obviously to young fully comprehend and or to experience apartheid.i on the other hand experienced it firsthand. the problems experienced in SA today is due to the legacy of apartheid, thus it still remains a racial thing. you're not in the country today, right now and havent been for year.. so please that too doesn't make you an expert either.

@imc I never caimed to be an expert, but at the same time experienced my fair share of the problems that CAUSED us to leave, almst lost many family members thru mindless violence that were nothing more than that. And u knw wot those family members are permanently scarred today, mentally and physically and for wot? my argument is yes i am not an expert, and yes i was too young, but that doesnt mean i cnt fight for my country and am still more of an expert than an american who sits in judgement after visiting sa for a month or two. The wounds of my family are just as real as anybody elses, and y shud they be made less becos of the colour of my skin? people who think like that are no better than the people they go against

@ siobhan. the fact of the matter is.. whites still were and to some extent are better off today. yes many of them such as yourself have fled to greener pastures for whatever reasons, whether it be violence or other.i have lost family members who fought to free this country from the enslavement by white hands.and exactly which country are you routing for here rhodesia or sa? you cannot fight for your country when you are thousands of miles away...thats like just sitting on the fence. an american visiting this country experiencing the poverty and hardship of the non white people here, still makes them more of an expert than u sitting behind ur pc in her majesty's land. if u want to help. do it from here. build this country's economy up to what it should be. but hey you probably won't want to do that. cos it means you gonna have to work beneath a black person.. and we all know you just can't do that!!

I am not trying to be critical of you,but trust me,you know nothing about what is going on over there. all you know is what the white people feed you. do yourself a favor and try to find the truth siobhan it's out there if you want to see it.

the white people over there will NEVER tell the truth because their white way of ultra luxurious life is at stake. they have no where to go after south africa,and there is no where on this planet that they can have the lifestyle that they have in south africa,and they achieved it all through apartheid.

they know this,they know that they cant compete in a fair and open job market anywhere. that is why they all go to australia and new zealand countrys that still have apartheid based economys and laws.

Imc i do not deny u ur opinions because u r clearly a south african, and as for zim my mothers entire family are from there, but that isnt my country, SA is my home, and i do long for it, but yes i have more here and its not abt who is over me, i cudnt give a rats ass who i work under really i dnt,i work under and have worked under many non whites ad to b honest alot of them i prefer over a white employer, but i can never go to university and better my life and my future family's life in sa. I miss SA alot i long to go back and sometimes almst do go back, but wot do i go back to? call me typical but call me a typical human being with a will of self preservation, just like u wanted to have a better future for ur children so do i.

Peeps.

Take it easy. A lot of horrible things being said for no good reason.

We're reading a press article not required to divulge sources of findings - a source that cannot be trusted.

This article is not constructed on objectivity.

People on this blog are abusing the lack of objectivity to generate propaganda of their own and stir up tensions which need not exist.

Julius Malema is unpopular with the bulk of South Africans (black, white, woteva) as it is. One would suspect that his trip to Zim is to find some support for another irresponsible, selfish cause for which he can't get support in South Africa.

Chris, I have toyed with you enough.
I'll admit I'm white as RACE is important to you it seems...
But to be honest I think both white and black are full of c**p in Africa.

The blacks for blaming everything on the whites, and the whites fear of the blacks.

Arguments on who pissed on which rock first and all that, we are in a global world this days, its a much bigger picture.

But still we fight about little corners of the earth.

Unfortunately while this is all going on much higher powers are smiling...waiting to swoop in when the dust has settled one day, when Africa is so destitute nobody's going to care what color they are... they will be too hungry.
The world economy has turned, when times get really tough the world will turn its back on Africa and look after its own, no more handouts.

I agree if black South Africans feel they should take back everything, we should not stop them ...go ahead, while we at it why don't I make a claim for a farm in Ireland or better spain hang on I think I have an Egyptian ancestor too but wait don't all humans originate from Africa?
You get my point?
Seriously I wish you could spend some time with us here in Canada, everybody just gets along. Everyone is a minority.
Now suppose you where an alien and stumbled on this rock called earth, which cultures would you consider being the most successful, yes it could have been either way, so look and learn, Just about everything was build / won with violent conquest in the past, why don't we give South Africa back to SAN the people who really 'own' the land (before you, me whom ever)
Or should we send all the blacks in the west packing back to Africa where they belong? - The planet is our home.
the world has moved on but if one thinks that using yesterdays conquest techniques into today's context is going to work you have learn t nothing from the past, you would not be practicing what you preach not so?

then you havent been to Clifton,or bantry bay, or constantia lately then have you? havent been to hyde Park or Atholl? go and see for yourself. and zim was the same way. you have no clue about whats happened there. good luck in england,while your there try some Earl Grey tea,just remember that the Tea that you will be drinking will actually be from...........yep you guessed it ZIMBABWE. p.s. the Lipton stuff is from zim also

And anyway, wots wrng with just telling us? there are countless people reading and am sure want to knw too, most prob dnt even have matric let alone any form of degree, bachelors or prehistoric digging as u call it. You dnt have much evidence to support ur claims just a whole lot of i knw this and i knw that, well wots ur sources where do u get ur information from, have u researched this? have u spoken to people, have u done meta analyses? in my honest opinion im not so sure u have, i think u say stuff to make urself seem like ur summin to be intimidated by, and when someone backs u in a corner u get spiteful and rude and offensive, without heart pr thought at wot ur saying, lets just say i think ur over defensive, and u send people off on trails becos u dnt knw urself and thats y, i think u wnt tell us anything. I may be wrng and i do ask ur forgiveness for wotever wrng i as a person have done to u cos obviously, i have offended u gr8tly, well then we r now equal, alot i have not disclosed becos of safety of the people i treasure most in SA, anyone in SA will knw wot i speak of and to be honest alot of wot u say hurts, and it hurts to a perosnal extent, but thats wot u want right? i will take my leave now, becos i think i will send myself to an early grave worrying abt ppl like u chris, i care only abt the people i wish to save, anyway i can from anywhere i can. whether it b a samll effort or large it is something, ghandi did nt run into his fight with a machette or machine gun and neither did ur brother in america martin luther king.

Chris is one of those cowards that fled into exile and now sprouts his venom from abroad. Perhaps the thing that the colonialists that came to Africa failed to do which their counterparts who went to America did, was exterminate the local population. Your beloved Americans come from the same place as a lot of white South Africans, the UK. Sure there where Dutch, Germans and French but the ones who exterminated the native americans were British. Stop being a coward come back to the land of your birth and sprout your retoric here, you sound about intelligent enough to lead the ANC youth League.

What are you all fighting about???? Why must it always be "black and white". At the end of the day everyone wants to live in peace. Who's raping and who's killing? Why fight about land, the biggest problem in SA is crime! Why don't we sort out the criminals instead of fighting over materialistic things. Who wants to go to war, and see your families get killed. This is not God's intension for us. At the end of the day we're all humans made by the same GOD. Leave the farms in capable hand - Black or white. As long as they can produce so that everyone can benefit. No one wants another Zimbabwe, the people are dying and Mugabe is living like a King! Please people, start thinking with your heads! The enemy is not the white people. If the government doesn't allow illegal immigrants, there will be more jobs and less crime. Start looking at the facts instead of blaming EVERYTHING on the white people. Most of you who are blaming white people didn't even live in the "apartheid" years!!! You're using it as an excuse for everthing. Thinking about it ........ the educating, working black people don't blame the whites. Funny isn't it????

If the ANC want South Africa to become a thir-world country like Congo or Zimbabwe, go ahead !!!

The Whites will move to Europe, North America or Australia and the Blacks will suffer and die.

If you want that, just go ahead.

Chris, I have read all your posts.
Selous scouts fought for white minority in Zimbabwe. How did you befriend these people, and why are they anti-apartheid?

Anyways, interesting how you as American has such deep knowledge of Southern African politics, since the majority of Americans will struggle to identify South Africa on the world map.

About Apartheid: Us youngsters, black and white, saw the END of apartheid. We don't want white minority rule / apartheid. We don't support radical right wingers, PW Botha etc.

Did I have a choice of where to be born? My forefathers were colonizers - I grew up in South Africa. Do you have a problem with me being proud to be born here?

Apartheid was wrong and we have ANC rule. I am fine with that, but I don't appreciate how they are mismanaging funds and keeping the majority of poor black people in squalor.

ANC inherited immaculate infrastructure and failed to maintain a lot of it.

But since you know all about the rich neighbourhoods in South Africa, I can only surmise that you emigrated from here as a rich south african, or if you're a proudly black African American, used your privileged position to come and sight-see.

If indeed you are African American, it's very interesting that you criticize colonialists, since you are one of the main benefactors.

EDITOR - We advise you, our readers to refrain from racist comments as exhibited above.

This website is owned by blacks and all we're doing here is to report stuff good for the mankind, white or black.

If you start calling me an Ape and all sorts, then I can as well delete all the stuff and stop reporting things going on out there about you and leave you exposed to the vultures of the Dark World.

So, please grow up and discuss this issue about to revisit your country in a civilised way or else we leave you face the music on your own.

One thing you must know is, NOT everyone in South Africa or Zimbabwe belongs to ANC or Robert Mugabe's Zanu PF.

Don't say you've not been warned.

If you travel Africa you will see poverty all over. Yet many countries prosper...

Take Zambia, Namibia and Botswana, to name a few. They PROSPER. What is the attitude between black and white? It is GOOD. Go and see for yourself. There is TOLERANCE, PATIENCE, RESPECT, CO-OPERATION, ALL the attributes to make a country prosper, in all those countries. And a black government in charge. And all those governments respect and protect the rights and lives of ALL its citizens.

Once you lose those attributes and resort to anarchy and land reforms and what Mugabe did, people starve. People die. We have all we need in this country. But we need tolerance and RESPECT. I do not care who has the brains and who has the muscle. We can and will prosper if we display and practise RESPECT.

Lets all push and ask for a government to bind our people and work towards a solution. And practise respect. And that includes ALL races.

I've been reading a blog on the BBC's website about the Terreblanche murder and followed a link to this site. I must say after reading a lot of these posts I despair of humankind. If the majority of South Africans hold the views I have read on this site I'm afraid your country has absolutely no chance. There is so much hate displayed it's depressing. I live in Britain so will not comment on how to solve South Africa's problems. What I will say though is that all this hate will destroy your country.

Please note that:
1. Not all "niggers"/"kaffers" are uneducated barbarians.
2. Not all "niggers"/"kaffers" are afilliated with the ANC
3. Not all "niggers"/"kaffers" are for the land reform/land grab campaign. Some of us actually understand that it takes an experienced farmer to run a successful farm. Some of "us" are not even interested in farming.

4. Some "niggers"/"kaffers" have spent many years studying hard @ universities and are qualifified professionals.

I am a senior software developer at a fortune 500 company in Cape Town. I am a firm believer in the human race. Name calling and race cards are not solving anything. Please dont let your emotions get the better of you and please refrain from placing all us "niggas" in the same boat because trully speaking some of "us" are ignorant uneducated fools.

PS... I too sometimes hate "niggers"/"kaffers", so in conclusion, white people, I understand your pain.But please forgive them ignorant "nigger"/"kaffers"

You probably have one of those annoying American accents as well... Doesn't even sound African anymore. "African American" MY ASS! You lost your "African" title the day you went to, or were born to America. People always have 110 things to say about SA, but they have no idea what goes on here. Our generation gets along just fine with each other. We work together, we eat together, we live together, we play togeter, we PRAY together, and guess what, Chris - we are going to FIGHT together (Black & White). This is not about white South Africans being angry and broken into pieces and raped and killed etc, etc. It's about ALL SOUTH AFRICANS this is happening to. Guess what, not just the Whites are being killed - the Blacks too are being killed. On trains, in taxis, trying to protect their hard earned wages against thugs (Illigal immigrants - from ZIMBABWE) Illigal immigrants running from their country to ours and creating havock!!! ALL South Africans are being let down by government - ALL OF US!!!!! And the fact that Eugene Terre'blanche got killed has got nothing to do with YOU!!!! THIS generation does not care about the old politicians and leaders from the old SA. The ones responsible for Apartheid crimes were repremanded and jailed. They were all held responsible for their actions and paid for what they did. AND GOOD!!! That's justice! It's not going to be too long, then all those people will die of either old age, or get murdered. What ever - then all those Apartheid leaders and supporters will be gone (Thank God) - but then?? What then?? Who and what will be blamed for the next fuck-up caused by racism and misunderstanding??? People like YOU misunderstands OUR situation on this side and spread faul untrue shit like you are doing now. Live in your safe country. And leave your big fucking nose out of ours! It has got absalutely NOTHING to do with you!! You spread hatred and annoyance. AND YOU HAVE ABSALUTELY NO IDEA WHAT YOU ARE TALKING ABOUT!!! Shhhhh, hush and keep quiet... The people who live here and craves peace are trying to speak now, okay???

Chris, If you go back in history... South Africa learnt how to implement racism from western countries. America and the UK implemented racism looooong before we did. I suggest you keep yourself well imformed of all the facts before you make comments about something that actually is of little concern to you.
I'm in the age group that was far too young to have any involvement in apartheid (Born mid to late 80's) and also have no interest in the political propaganda thats being forced on us. We're getting along fine with our black counter parts, some of my best friends are of colour. Although, if these right wing idiots dont stop their nonsense I am one of the ones thats going to get killed. Not because i am a part of any of it, but merely because of the colour of my skin. A guy isnt going to hold a gun to my head and ask me 20 questions before he pulls the trigger if we get to a civil war situation.

So please people, speak for yoursevles if you're going to go on these tirades. Your opinions are yours, it doesnt mean we all feel like that and i am almost sure, you haters are in the minority!

I have a ANC war veteran working in my garden. He has 8 children to feed but cannot get fixed employment. His war veterans pension was stopped 4 years ago, no reason given. he is going blind, but the ANC clinics and hospitals won't help him. I took it on myself to get his eye sight sorted out.These incompetent clinics and hospitals are just holiday resorts for fat arse lazy assholes. If it were not for the white folk that employes him 5 day's a week, his children would starve to death. No help from the rich fat over indulged big mouth malema.(did you see his photo whilst in Zimbabwe, that facial expression reminds me of something that I rather not mention here)By the way, Zimbabwe stands for Zero Intelligence Mainly Because All Brainey Whites Emmigrated. Hows that malema.

@ Chris. Who said I was white in the first place? I could be coloured or part of the Indian minority! Well, every terrorist here carries an AK47 if not R5-that includes criminals and these days there's no difference. But, my point is in the "Civilized world" being beaten to death and hacked with a panga is barbaric and that nothing has changed in Africa the last 60 years, even 358 years. Since the abolishment of the death penalty in SA crime has radically increased-the "human rights" of the ANC has benefitted the criminal more than ordinary citizens-Criminals get away with murder-police is corrupt, some even commit violent crime, others assist the criminal. Botswana is totally different in terms of crime- death penalty still inplace. This is more about the poor and criminal government in SA than about race. There's also white, indian, coloured ANC gravytrain MP's and supporters.

What I just can't understand is, why do we still have to suffer for mistakes our ancestors made? I'm turning 26 now and can not remember what it was like when I was young. The Lord said to love your neighbour as yourself..He did not say only if he is white or only if he is black. I dream of a South Africa true to the rainbow nation we claim to be.

@SA (White) Woman
Having read all the comments it took this last one to bring my mixed feelings of anger , despair, disgust and above all sadness back down to earth. You have managed to say it all.

I cannot claim to be an expert but have some experience of South Africa and of Africa as a whole. I am white , english and lived and worked for two years (1974/5/6) as a farm sales rep travelling throughout Natal ,Zululand and occasionally into Swaziland . I thus met many white farmers and their black employees during the apartheid period and saw the ridiculous system at first hand. Believe it or not I had a number of small black farmer clients, miners working in Joburg who would invest their savingsin farm machinery on smallholdings in Zululand. Imagine going into the local pub and wanting to buy a drink for a black or coloured acquaintance but having to send it through to the separate 'coloured only' bar.
In later years I visited Zimbabwe many times on business as well as Mozambique, Angola, Malawi, Zambia, and several other 'african' countries. I am now retired and have only very real fond memories of all the people both black, white, coloured , indian etc with whom I shared many unforgettable moments out in the 'real' african countryside.

I sincerely believe South Africa does not belong to anyone except the 'South Africans' themselves.- SA quote '...our generation gets along just fine with each other....' unquote
No-one who has any inkling of the complexity of south africa (or afroca for that matter) believes that things will change for the good overnight perhaps not for another generation , but give them collectively some faith.
Chris - I find phrases such as "you whites" or "you blacks" totally abhorent and somewhat smacking of ignorance .. You might try just a little bit of respect such as "White South Africans" or "Black South Africans" .

Calm down, take charge of yourself. There will be no civil war in South Africa. Now is the time for people to exercise some enlightenment. It's natural that people polarise their views when they feel threatened, but there are too many people who oppose racial violence in South Africa to see it unleashed by the ignorant, or ill disciplined. Don't buy into this nonsense. Black people in South Africa have just as much to lose by rampaging against white people as white people do. We've seen how successive black governments fail their countries without the expertise and management of the other races. South Africa must retain its multicultural, multiracial identity or join the ranks of declining African states. Read 'capitlist nigger' by Dr Chika Onyeani and you'll understand - 'african' culture doesn't produce, it consumes, it relies on others to mastermind development and production. My advice to all those whoite haters is first learn how to do the job before you attack those who can teach you.

If you look at all the comments above, you'll notice that there's black people who agrees with the whites. These are educated people who understands economy etc. You know what Chris ....... Turn to God and you'll find some peace. It's not about what happened in the past, it's what we're going to do in the future. The people today can't help what their ancestors did, why must we all be held responsible. And you know what, Pres. Mandela is well know all over the world, WHY? Because he wanted PEACE. Watch the movie "Invictus", The black people wanted to kill all the white but Pres. Mandela said NO, we need the white people. That's why he is such a well-known popular man. Have you ever heard of Celebs or international presidents who wants to meet Pres. Mugabe of Pres. Zuma. NO NO NO. I wonder why?!

Wow... I know peeps are entitled to their opinions, but I think both the extreme right wing whites and the left wing comarade blacks should be locked in a desert together, then they can kill each other off without hurting the rest of us. I may not have many black friends, but that does not make me racist... I don't have many Afrikaans friends either, and I can hang out with whomever I feel like, it is a free country, or so we are told! I get on just fine wih most educated individuals of all races, but I DON'T GET ON WITH IDIOTS LIKE CHRIS and some of the others that have posted here. And I also belive that a big problem is not the colour difference, it is a class issue, I don't hang out with poor uneducated Whites either, we move in different circles!
Malema is a dangerous fool, Mugabe should fuck off and die so that the Zims can go back to their country and stop their robbing, stealing and raping and taking jobs away in South Africa, just because they have nothing left to live for in their own country.
I have never had the chance to go to Zim, but I have friends that live there and they say it is beautiful, but now a really sad place to live. Supermarkets are empty, no fuel, nothing works properly anymore... Mugabe's regime took a pefectly well functioning coutry and ran it into the ground... I just wonder why? Why is this a trend in Afria, or are there more sinister forces behind this? I don't really belive the theory that the USA and UK are behind it, but maybe they make things worse, but it is up to the people of any country to have the will to improve and educate, if you don't have that, a country will just go down the tubes. And I don't want SA to end up like Zim, this is my home, and I do hope that we will eventually have a Government that is worthy to run a wonderful country like this, in the way it should be run, not by emotions of the past but with economic savvy that will benefit all of us, Black, White, Indian, Coloured.
And to the asshole CHRIS... the Yanks should be ashamed of themselves, they had slavery, which was much worse than Apartheid, and now they try to tell SA what to do. And who are the poorest there... a recent poll showed that the Black Americans are the poorest, are the most % in prison, and have the highest unemployment rate! And you are a minority there!!! So shut your dumb mouth and let us in S/Africa work things out, or not.
I could also generalise as you keep doing with the Whites, and say that all Americans are fat, stupid, ignorant misfits, but I know they are not all like you, I know you are fortunately a minority.
The lower class Black S/Africans still have a lot to learn, and as an educated person this can be extremely frustrating, as we take a lot for granted. But it takes two to Tango, they also have to show their willingness to learn and progress, and be willing to work hard (not in the garden or digging) but working with their brains, cooperating with others and learning the value of customer service (one of the biggest problems here!).
Anyway, to end on a positive note, I do think there are more of us that want things to work and want to get along with each other.

WOW, this frightens me. I heard about the night of the long knives (hnuru)- Have any one of you heard of this? If this is true, many lives will be lost. And many innocent children will die. I cannot understand why our generation should be punished for something our grandparents did. I guess our only option as white people is to fight back. Like Seiner van Rensburg said, This war will be the hardest war ever fought, but we will prevail again. I just hope that all this is not in vain, I just hope that God will hear our cries for help. I'm really frightened, but I guess, time is time. If there should be a war between blacks and whites, i will give my best and fight back. Please people, google hnuru and do your research and be prepared. What we need is a good plan.
BUT i still hope that this beautiful country will not fall. I still carry hope that we can resolve this tension in a peaceful manner. My heart is breaking, and i'm living in fear. CRY MY BELOVED COUNTRY, CRY!

Oh. Another cock up, well what did we expect. A fucking useless exercise to even comment on. They must sink Africa as it is a drain on the rest of the world. What more do they want to destroy, this is satans work. Look at the SA goverment trying to build a "gautrain" and stadiums for the soccer world cup, what an embarrasment, money pours into africa and 90% of the money is used by the politicians to grease thier arses. And even if this is an Aprils fool joke, this will eventually happen, because we all know this will be deep dark africa and will eventually be a large bottomless pit for the rest of the world to throw money into.

@seekandfind.

My friend, I think you would agree with me, that when speaking about the string pullers, you are speaking above most people's heads. When the whole Malema things started I started to see how they are really hammering the wedge into the crack to create chaos. You gotta give them bas@rds that, they are really cunning in their chess game hey?

Just look at what they have done. Here I sit in Port Elizabeth, South Africa, wondering, what is really gonna happen in this country. Will I have to fight for my life because some dipshit was put there to enrage the uneducated masses, who has been failed by their winning party, the ANC?

I have always thought I might end up in some kind of war, maybe because of influence where war is made to look cool. Who knows, I'm 28 and like to watch movies, I don't like to watch tv though.

I try and stay positive about South Africa, even amongst the hatred being spewed by many, and fueled by few. When the rich wage war is the poor and uninformed who die isn't it?

Land reform. Race. AWB. Onlooker chanting "hero" to two people who killed another human brutally and gruesomely. Come to think of it, it does kinda resemble the scenes from some of those SCI-FI movies.

But as it has been proved by them so many times before, the best way for them to bring about change (to introduce their solution which benefits them) is through war. The same way they started, what was it, WW2 with the sinking of the passenger ship? Like they started the so called "War against terror"

People, please, I'm 28, I just started working for myself 3 months ago. Why? Because I have dreams. And now, after putting my dreams on hold for 10 years because I thought I could get their by working for a boss, it seems I will have to put in on hold because people are hating one another because of what a minority is doing? COME ON!!!!

Don't get caught up in the bickering of fools. You are playing straight into their hand. Lets build this country. Lets focus our energy on those that are responsible.....our so called government. REMEMBER THIS: If we have a civil war in this country, those who provoked it, will sit high and dry in their mansions.

When the rich wage war its the poor who die. Why are we in such a need to prove this?

its proven this doesnt work
there are blacks sitting with land administered to them via land reform but CANT farm because they dont know how, suddenly you have land and you are what, rich?? and they run at a loss because it costs money to farm and the government must just give give give. imagine 38 million blacks all owning land - talk about a shit sarmie!

10 percent of this population is white - us tax payers support 3 to 4 people on our taxes. I say we all up and leave and let these morons find their own way to sustain - let them sink back into the stone age. Take your intellect and just get out of SA. Julius maleman never struggled a day in his life - he was 9 years old when Mandela was released for petes sake - its getting so old!!! get over it!!!!!

If this article is true God help SA.

All i can say white farmers of SA will not lie down and have their land taken away. Only diff between Mugabe and Malema it took 30 years for Mugabe to distroy Zim it will take Malema and his clueless clan 30 months aand guess what white and black will prevail to rebuild what was destroyed. Whole SA goverment and business directors can be Black as long as they provide on what they promise and the last 16years the ANC have provided nothing to SA except their own wealth. Now if Mr Mandela was reigning for those 16 years this counrty would be the world leader. I bow in respect to you MADIBA for all you did for SA while you were leading.

Here's an idea. If you want land... BUY IT like everyone else.

This fscken bullshit must stop now.

If they dont want the whites in South Africa, then strike a deal with another "western" country and give us a fscken passport to get out.

I would have moved to the UK/Canada/US years ago, but i can't because i only have a "green mamba (south african passport)"

I have the most amazing black friends and people in my life, and we will always remain so, regardless of the rest of south africas "stereotypical differences".

(SEPTIMIUS-SEVERUS) WAS AN AFRICAN BLACK EMPEROR OF ROME (200 A.D) AND JUDGING FROM THE BUST OF HIM AND HIS CHILDREN THEY ALL HAVE CURLY NOT STRAIGHT HAIR WITH WIDE NOSES AS WELL AS OTHER BLACK FEATURES. TAKE A LOOK AT THE EARLY EMPERORS AND POPES OF EUROPE ONE WILL SEE THEIR AFRICAN BLACK FEATURES, EVEN (KING-JAMES) ORIGINAL PORTRAIT SHOWS THESE FEATURES. THE EUROPEANS WERE IN THE “DARK AGES” FOR THOUSANDS OF YEARS, THEY WERE 99.9% ILLITERATE, EVEN THE KINGS AND QUEENS COULD NOT READ OR WRITE AND THOUGHT IT WAS A SIN TO TAKE A BATH. THE AFRICAN MOORS WENT TO EUROPE AND TOOK THE WHITES OUT OF THE CAVES AND TAUGHT THEM HOW TO READ AND WRITE AND BUILT OVER 100 UNIVERSITIES.
THE PREMISE OF CHEMISTRY ORIGINATED IN AFRICA AND IS AN EXTENSION OF KEMETIC SCIENCE, WHICH MEANS (THE BLACK LAND SCIENCE).
CRACKERS: (CHARLES-BABBAGE) IDEA OF THE COMPUTER WAS INCOMPLETE BECAUSE HE WAS TOO FUCKING STUPID TO ACTUALLY FINISH IT (FAIL). (ALAN-TURING) WAS A GAY-FAGET THAT HAD TO GET HIS NUTS NEUTERED FOR DOING HOMO SHIT AND DIDN'T INVENT ANYTHING BECAUSE HIS IDEA OF THE COMPUTER WAS INCOMPLETE AS WELL (FAIL-AGAIN).
BLACKS: COULD YOU IMAGINE WHAT A COMPUTER WOULD BE LIKE WITHOUT A HIGH SPEED INTERNET MODEM, PRINTER, MOUSE, AND KEYBOARD ETC. WELL A MAN BY THE NAME OF MARK DEAN IS RESPONSIBLE FOR INVENTING THE COMPUTER’S BUS CONTROLL SYSTEM THAT ALLOWS ALL OF THESE HARDWARE DEVISES TO BE CONNECTED. IN (1980) HE INVENTED (3) OUT OF THE (9 PC) PATENTS AT (IBM) AND HAS (20) OVERALL COMPUTER PATENTS. MARK DEAN IS THE VICE PRESIDENT OF (IBM) AND OWNS MORE THEN 30% OF THE COMPANY, WITHOUT HIM GUYS LIKE (TIM-BERNERS LEE, GOOGLE, STEVE-JOBS & BILL-GATES) WOULDN’T EXIST.
PART 2
(PHILIP-EMEAGWALI) INVENTED THE WORLDS FASTEST SUPER-COMPUTER CALCULATING SOFTWARE, WHICH IS PRIMARILY USED FOR OIL DRILLING AND WEATHER FORECASTING. (OTIS-BOYKINS) INVENTED THE ELECTRICAL RESISTER AND A UNIQUE DEVISE THAT IS ESSENTIAL TO ALL (IBM) COMPUTERS AND GUIDED MISSILES AROUND THE WORLD. (LEWIS-LATIMER) INVENTED THE METHOD FOR THE PRODUCTION OF CARBON FILAMENTS IN THE LIGHT BULB (THE WHITE-POWDER SUBSTANCE) (NOT THOMAS-EDISON) (FAIL). (LEWIS-LATIMER) INVENTED THE TELEPHONE (NOT THOMAS-EDISON) (FAIL-AGAIN). (DR.HENRY T. SAMPSON) INVENTED THE GAMMA ELECTRIC CELL, WHICH CONVERTS GAMMA RADIATION INTO ELECTRICITY WITHOUT GOING THROUGH A HEAT CYCLE. IN (1964) HE ALSO RECEIVED PATENTS FOR A BINDER SYSTEM FOR PROPELLANTS AND EXPLOSIVES, IN (1965) A CASE BONDING SYSTEM FOR CAST COMPOSITE PROPELLANTS AND IN (1973) A PROCESS FOR CASE BONDING CAST COMPOSITE PROPELLANTS. (JAMES E.WEST) INVENTED THE MICROPHONE AND ALSO HOLDS 47 OVERALL PATENTS. (Dr. PATRICA-BATH) INVENTED THE LASER CATARACTS REMOVER. (JAMES S. ADAMS) INVENTED THE AIRPLANE PROPELLER. (FREDERICK-JONES) INVENTED THE “18 WHEELER REFRIGERATOR UNIT. (EDMOND-BERGER) INVENTED THE SPARK PLUG. (GEORGE-ALCORN) INVENTED AN IMAGING X-RAY SPECTROMETER. (VALERIE-THOMAS) INVENTED THE ILLUSION TRANSMITTER WHICH GIVES I PODS AND OTHER GADGETS THE ABILITY TO PROJECT THE IMAGES ON THE SCREEN AND IS THE NEXT GENERATION OF THE TELEVISION THAT’S COMING TO A HOME NEAR YOU SOON, THAT’S JUST TO NAME A FEW. WE DIDN’T INVENT A LOT OF THINGS, WE JUST INVENTED THE THINGS THAT PEOPLE USE. THE WHITE MANS ONLY ACHIEVEMENTS IN LIFE ARE DERIVED FROM LIVING OFF THE BACKS OF OTHERS, MAINLY BLACKS, LATINOS, ORIENTALS AND OTHER SO CALLED “THIRD WORLD COUNTRIES” (WHICH WAS CREATED BY CRACKERS TO SEGREGATE THEMSELVES FROM OTHER NATIONS THAT AREN’T INVOLVED IN TRADE WITH AMERICA). WE NEVER NEEDED WHITES FOR ANYTHING *REMEMBER THAT* (THEY NEEDED US AND STILL DO).

Part 3

THE MAJORITY OF CRACKERS ARE LIKE THE AVATAR, THEIR BOTH BARBARIC RACIST THUGS ESPECIALLY THE MALES. THEY CAN’T HELP IT BECAUSE THEIR TERRORIST BY NATURE, IT’S IN THEIR DNA SO DON’T BE SURPRISED BY THEIR RACISM BECAUSE THEY INVENTED IT. YOU SEE THEIR ONLY CLAIM TO FAME IS MURDER, LYING, CHEATING, STEALING AND BENEFITING FROM THINGS THAT THEY THEMSELVES HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH, WHICH HAS BEEN BASED AROUND THE PREMISE OF WHITE PRIVILEGE (AMERIKKKAN-STYLE) LOL. WHITES CLAIM THEY INVENTED THE (COMPUTER) AND (INTERNET) BUT WHAT WOULD THESE INVENTIONS BE WITHOUT THE INNOVATION OF (MARK-DEAN) A BLACK MAN WHO OWNS (30%) OR MORE OF IBM AND IS THE VICE PRESIDENT. HE INVENTED THE (PC) AND HOLDS (3) OUT OF THE (9) COMPUTER PATENTS AND HAS A TOTAL OF (20) OVERALL COMPUTER PATENTS. THE TRUTH NEVER LIES SO DON’T BE FOOLED BY THE WHITE MEDIA, IF THEY COULD GET AWAY WITH IT THEY WOULD CHANGE THE COLOR OF DR. MARTIN LUTHER KING JR TO LOOK WHITE IN ALL THEIR HIS-STORY BOOKS (LIKE THEY TRY TO DO WITH THE BLACK-EGYPTIANS). CHINESE, BLACKS AND JEWS ARE THE MOST INNOVATIVE GROUPS OF PEOPLE IN OUR SOCIETY TODAY, NOT WHITES (THIS IS A FACT NOT MY OPINION). YES! AFRICAN AMERICANS HAVE TO DO A BETTER JOB OF NOT LETTING OUR ENVIRONMENT DETERMINE OUR FUTURE, WHICH IS BEING SURROUNDED BY POVERTY STRICKEN NEIGHBORHOODS, CRUMBLING SCHOOLS AND BAD TEACHERS (*NO PRE-COLLEGE TRAINING) AND NOT ENOUGH BLACK HISTORY AND TOO MUCH CRACKER HISTORY WHICH HAS ALL BEEN A STRATEGY PUT TOGETHER BY YOU GUESSED IT, (THE US OF KKK) *LAWS AND POLICIES.

GOOD RIDDANCE YOU INCEST-INFESTED CAVE-DWELLING FISH-LIP FAGET-CRACKERS.


1. WHAT’S THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A WHITE MAN AND A SNAKE?

2. HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE FOR A WHITE WOMAN TO TAKE A CRAP?
(9 MONTHS). LMFAO

3. WHAT’S WHITE AND 9 INCHES LONG?
(NOTHING AT ALL)

Part 4
HERE IS WHAT’S SO FUNNY ABOUT ALL OF THIS, THE BRITISH PARLIAMENT SENT LARGE GROUPS OF (PURITANS) WHICH MEANT CRAZY CRACKER PRIEST AND CONVICTED CRIMINALS FROM EUROPE TO THE AMERICAS ALONG WITH THEIR ENGLISH LANGUAGE. AS SOON AS THEY GOT HERE THAT’S WHEN ALL HELL BROKE LOOSE, THEY MURDERED MOST OF THE INDIANS AND THE ONES THAT SURVIVED WERE FORCED TO LEAVE OR HELP KILL THEIR OWN PEOPLE. FOR FOOD WHITEY ATE THE DEAD INDIAN ON LAND AS WELL AS UNDERGROUND AND SOMETIMES THEY WOULD EAT THEIR OWN FAMILY MEMBERS (THESE ARE FACTS NOT MY OPINION). LOOK UP *HISTORY IS A WEAPON* BY (HOWARD-ZINN) WHITEY WOULD LATER GET THEIR INDEPENDENCE FROM THE BRITISH WITH HELP FROM OTHERS AND THEN THEY BEGAN SLAVERY.
WHITEY HAS TRIED TO HOLD US BACK SINCE WE FIRST LAID EYES ON THEM AND YET WE’VE BEEN MORE INNOVATIVE THEN THEY’VE BEEN. SLAVERY FOR CRACKERS AND BLACKS IN AMERICA LASTED FOR ABOUT 400 YEARS (UNOFFICIALLY) BLACKS WERE NOT ALLOWED TO READ OR WRITE BUT STILL MANAGED TO CREATE THE MOST INNOVATIVE INVENTIONS OF THEIR TIME. THE MOST FASCINATING PART OF THIS IS THAT WE’RE ONLY 13% OF THE POPULATION IN AMERICA (ACCORDING TO THE CENSUS) AND WHITEY HAS BEEN IN POWER FOR AROUND 400 YEARS WHICH TELLS ME THAT THEY CAN’T COMPETE WITH US ON A CONSISTENT LEVEL WITHOUT (WHITE PRIVILEGE) AND ANYBODY WITH ANY HISTORY OF INTELLIGENCE WOULD KNOW THIS. CRACKERS TRY SO HARD TO KEEP US OUT OF THE PICTURE BECAUSE WHEN THE PLAYING FIELD IS EVEN THE BLACKS WIN AND MOST TIMES IT DOESN’T HAVE TO BE EVEN. CRACKERS PORTRAY THEMSELVES TO HAVE SUPER INTELLIGENCE AND TO BE HEROES OF THE WORLD *(LMFAO) BUT WHEN THE CURTAIN IS PULLED BACK AND THE TRUTH IS REVEALED THEY’RE IN THE BACK OF THE PACK WHEN IT COMES TO RESPECT AND INNOVATION THAT DOESN’T INCLUDE INGENIOUS WAYS OF KILLING SOMEBODY. THE CRACKER MEDIA WILL GIVE YOU THE IMPRESSION THAT BLACKS ARE IGNORANT AND LAZY BUT DON’T BE FOOLED, WE’VE BEEN AT THE FOREFRONT OF INNOVATION IN THIS COUNTRY AND AROUND THE WORLD FOR CENTURIES. BLACKS NEVER NEEDED WHITEY FOR ANYTHING *REMEMBER THAT* (THEY NEEDED US AND STILL DO). NOW THEY NEED A BLACK MAN TO GET THEM OUT OF THE SHIT HOLE CREATED BY ANOTHER INCOMPETENT CRACKER.
P.S WHITEY’S INGENUITY HAS BEEN SURPASSED BY THEIR TREACHERY AND BARBARIC NATURE THROUGHOUT HISTORY. REMEMBER THEY INVENTED RACISM AND SLAVERY IN AMERICA. AS YOU SOW SO SHALL YOU REAP, REMEMBER THE SHARPEVILLE MASSACRE IN SOUTH AFRICAN, REVENGE IS A BITCH, YOU FISH LIP FUCKERS.
1.THE GORILLA HAS STRAIGHT HAIR ON THEIR HEAD - WHITEY HAS STRAIGHT HAIR ON THEIR HEAD.
2.THE GORILLA HAS FISH LIPS - WHITEY HAS FISH LIPS.
3.THE GORILLA HAS WHITE SKIN UNDER THEIR HAIR - WHITEY HAVE WHITE SKIN *(UNDER THEIR HAIR) LOL
SO IF ANYONE IS UNEVOLVED! AHEM

BREAKING NEWS: IF YOU’RE BLACK JESUS IS NOT YOUR LORD OR SAVIOR, IT’S A WHITE LIE TO HAVE YOU PRAISE THEIR WHITE GOD. PAY ATTENTION TO WHAT THESE WHITES ARE TEACHING YOU AND YOUR CHILDREN, IT’S MEANT TO MAKE YOU WORSHIP THEM *DON’T FORGET THAT*. WOMEN NEED TO STOP WORSHIPING SOME INVISIBLE DUDE THAT NEVER EXISTED AND START WORSHIPING YOURSELF! DUH, FOR CRYING OUT LOUD IT WAS CREATED BY CRACKERS TO BRAINWASH YOU INTO BELIEVING THAT YOUR NOT AS CAPABLE AS A MAN *TRUST ME (I’M A MAN), IN FACT WOMEN HAVE ALWAYS BEEN OUR FOUNDATION OF MAKING CRITICAL DECISIONS BEHIND THE SCENES AND WITHOUT THEM WE WOULD OBVIOUSLY BE EXTINCT, BUT SHUSH LADIES. (YOUR NOT SUPPOSE TO KNOW THAT). THE FUNNIEST PART OF ALL THIS BUYBULL BULLSHIT IS THAT WHITEY DOESN’T EVEN BELIEVE IN IT BECAUSE ALL THEY DO IS HATE PEOPLE THAT LOOK DIFFERENT FROM THEM AND PLOT OUT WAYS TO KILL THEM, NOW I’VE NEVER READ THE CRACKER BUYBULL BUT I’VE NEVER HEARD OF ANYONE SAYING THAT HATING, KILLING AND ENSLAVING PEOPLE BECAUSE OF HOW THEY LOOK OR ANY OTHER REASON WAS HOLY OR HEAVEN SENT. THEY ARE FULL OF SHIT! WAKE UP PEOPLE! NOW
PS. YOU ARE THE LEADER OF YOURSELF AND AS SOON AS YOU FORGET THAT YOU BECOME A FOLLOWER (LOST WITH YOUR HAND’S OUT). STOP BEING FOOLED BY THESE DIVIDE AND CONQUER TACTICS. IF YOU NEED GUIDANCE LOOK IN THE MIRROR AND ASK YOURSELF IS THIS THE RIGHT OR WRONG, TURN TO A FRIEND OR FAMILY MEMBER FOR COMFORT NOT (WHITE/JESUS) *TRUST ME* I’M AN AGNOSTIC WHO LEADS AND BELIEVES IN MYSELF!
P.S. DIVIDE AND CONQUER TACTICS. 1.RELIGION 2.RACE 3.CLASS. (DON'T BE FOOLED). WAKE UP PEOPLE

KEMET = BLACK LAND, WHICH DERIVED FROM (THE FERTILE BLACK SOIL OF THE NILE VALLEY). EVERYTHING THAT IS IN THE ARYAN WHITE BUYBULL ARE STORIES TAKEN OUT OF KEMET = AFRICA. THE TEN COMMANDMENTS WERE TAKEN FROM (THE 42 CONFESSIONS OF THE GODDESS MA’AT) BUT EUROPEAN CRACKERS HAS PLAGIARIZED IT FOR THEIR OWN PURPOSE.

SOUTH AFRICA HAS 430,000 OUT OF 5 MILLION SHIT-STAIN CRACKER’S LIVING IN GARBAGE DUMPS (LITERALLY) AND YOU CAN BET YOUR DIRTY WHITE ASS IT’S GOING TO GET A LOT WORSE REAL SOON. U FUCKING BITCHES WON’T LAST MUCH LONGER, YOU SHIT STAINS WILL BE EATING EACH OTHER AFTER THE SOCCER GAMES ARE OVER (WATCH) AND I’LL BE (LMFAO) CRACKER. THE TIDE IS COMING AND THE SHARKS ARE HUNGRY, BETTER HOLD YOUR BREATH AND SWIM FAST BITCHES.

THE REASON WHY WHITEY HAS PROSPERED IN PLACES LIKE U.S, AFRICA AND EUROPE IS BECAUSE THEY MURDERED INNOCENT MEN, WOMEN AND CHILDREN. AFTER STEALING THEIR LAND CRACKER’S BENEFITED BY SELLING THEIR PROPERTY TO FOREIGN BUYERS LIKE CHINA, CANADA AND EUROPE. WHITEY’S A MASTER AT TREACHERY AND HIS ABILITY TO USE IT. (AS YOU SOW SO SHALL YOU REAP)

THE CRACKERS THAT LEFT KNEW THEY WOULD BE SLAUGHTERED LIKE THE REST OF THE DIRTY WHITE FARMERS. IF I CAME TO YOUR HOUSE AND MURDERED YOU AND YOUR FAMILY BECAUSE I WANTED TO MOVE IN AND CREATE MY OWN FORM OF LIVING WOULD YOU ENJOY THAT OR WOULD YOUR RELATIVE’S SEEK REVENGE, IF NOT SEND ME YOUR ADDRESS. BEFORE THE EUROPEANS GOT THERE AND STARTED MURDERING INNOCENT MEN, WOMEN AND CHILDREN THE AFRICANS WERE *(MINDING THEIR OWN BUSINESS). AGAIN! THE TIDE IS COMING AND THE SHARKS ARE HUNGRY, BETTER SWIM FAST BITCHES.

Well what happened to this anomally of an intelligent black man, what happened to his off-spring, what has EVER been acheived by these people that hasn't involved stealing and the destruction of what has been built & established???? Hundreds of years have passed and what has the black man given the world - NOTHING! Their best creation is BEE & Affirmative Action to "protect" themselves from a minority.....

Going through all the comments I must laugh at these blacks.Years ago they were called ZULU's by our great forefathers. Dingaan under estimated a handfull of boers and let's not forget the land belonged to them.Just like now you cant trust them.What was suppose to be a deal on land for the boers to farm on turned to a bloodbath. Then they came for the few left over at bloodriver and we all know what happened there.For those BLACKS who dont know their history of what happened,be aware it's happening again only this time we have studied you better and are better prepaired.I served in THE SANDF in 1988 and trained along side blacks fro 151 battalion and 32 Battalion. There is more of your own race"BLACKS" that stand with us.Be assure of that.We are coming for you most men from 30 is millitry trained to survive.These comments from some whites to make us look like the bad ones are the ones who never went to army or tried to get out of it"sissies"

All this crap is just a smokescreen anyway to try take attention away from the rising anger amongst all races in this country at the gross incompetence and corruption in the anc.

I'm living in Ireland for the last six years,married to an Irish woman (no kids,not yet),but there is no way in hell that i will ever move back to s.a. again. I'm getting my family out of there as well.

Non the less I'm still South African,still love my country,but are not proud of my country. People here always ask why did I leave such a beautifull country for this climate, my answer is that i can't take the shit over there anymore,can't live in fear,can't get a job because i'm over qualified(believe it or not) and just because frankly there is no hope.

In the last two years I've taken my wife over to vist my parents and sisters,she absolutly loves the country,and every time i ask would she ever want to live there she has this answer,"I'd loved to but if I want to live in a prison I'll just kill you".

She has seen what S.A. has to offer and its embarrassing to know that people think that way about my country,and it's not just my wife.

So to all the people that has opinions about S.A. and it's people keep it too yrself,especially you Yanks and Brits,you really have no right,you invasional fucks.

Lets put aside the hatred for a moment and look objectively. Fact is 2 million liberated Zims is hungry. 3 million Zims flee from an oppressed Azania. If they are so free, what are they doing there? Most of the changes are driven from people not even living in these countries. They have no love of the country, or the people. Lets look at the freed Zim as an example. Why did the people not moved into the farms and started farming for food? They fought so bitterly for it? And for nine years they did nothing. Apartheid have been abolished for 15 years. The country have gone backwards since.

Sure our skin is different, our brains are different, our physical abilities are different. Currently it is loose-loose for all. Surely you can see that what you have done in Zim is not working as you expected. If we can conquer our past and move on, we might find a win-win solution for all. A plea of wisdom and reason.

But then I also know this will not be listened too......

I am born and bred South African. I never voted for apartheid I was too young for those politics. Somehow I am not referred to as previously disadvantage either. Although I’m desperately seeking these supposed advantages that all "whites" received?? I beg an explanation. My forefathers judging by my genealogy were not that advantaged to start out with. I recall being a small boy and my parents always voting for the then Diplomatic Party and marching for the release of Nelson Mandela. What are they getting in return for fighting in the “struggle”? Political positions, free houses? Nope it seems all they are getting in return are threats to steal their hard earned land. YES most who have something in this country actually had to work for it!! Easy come easy go. Give it away and watch it all fall apart. I am more of a South African than the estimated 5 million illegal immigrants living in SA from up north will ever be. I will only ever be South African, does the colour of my skin change that? Does me being white now make me a WHAT ?

Larry, it makes you...and me a thieve. We stole cattle and land. Do not forget, gold and diamonds too. If you look around in the 2 km mine shafts, you will find rock paintings of these super intelligent beings. Not too long ago, the Boer's farms was burned down by the British, women and children murdered in very cruel ways. Putting powdered glass in the food, that cuts the kidneys. So if they do not eat, the starve to death. And now its the blacks doing the same things, just more savagely. So what did we steal? Oh, but they do not have home, or food or education. Before the whites came, they did not have an education either. Homes where simple huts. And the food? Well, 300 years ago, they where not 30 million blacks, so it was easier for their farming methods and abundance of food to make a living. So they try to get the land back, and they still die of hunger. So why do the land not feed them? Because of the enormous amount of people. The farming methods have to change to yield more crops to be able to feed people. The picture at the top, they victoriously chase away the man who knows how to feed them. Black people have a teeny struggle to think forward. And currently they are stuck in the past. So with the white man gone, it is going to be heaven on earth. Food and houses will rain from the sky. The international community will help us, which happen to be not black. Ahhh, I forgot, let sell some uranium to a country that can potentially trigger a nuclear arms race and a war that can wipe out the whole planet. Maybe Obama might try to stop me, but then he is a Muslim. So what did we steal again? Maybe some textbooks, cause they didn't know how to read or write. Or their excellent breed of cattle, with massive horns and poor meat and milk production. Or sheep, or goats, or horses, maybe chickens. The African horse is called Zebras, and nobody bother to tame them. Its got to be African sheep. And of cause there weapons of war. Neah, the land must be the secret...

Barack, we can not complain, we taught you to write. A shame we could not teach you to write common sense. We came, we conquered. Lots of nations did that before. The USA is a shinning example. We made one mistake, we did not kill all the inhabitants like the USA. We allowed them to live and work amongst us. Big mistake.

Then we have 30 million blacks that have been so oppressed by 3 million whites. That is the most lame pathetic excuse I have ever heard. So the white oppressors gave the reign to black, and after 15 years we are worse of then before this oppression?

Look at Zim as the prime example of a freed country. Do you want to hear the truth. It sucks. So what did you gain from stealing land of people who worked for it and made it into a value adding asset, a food basket for Africa? I will tell you, after nine years it turned into a waste land. The value is not in the land, it was on the land.

But you are so on a roll, blinded by a very clever third party, that in the end watch and wait till you have perished. You have become masters in creating your own demise. So who is really the idiots.

Instead of making friends with us, because we have the same love for Africa, we have been born here, you made us your enemies. Look a bit north at the "free" Africa, they suffer and die from hunger. Free black rule.

The population explosion in Africa can't be supported by the simple African methods of farming. You never had any proper homes, or sewerage systems, or fresh water systems, or electical supplies, or roads, or rail road, or manufacturing methods or systems, or storage facilities. The basic things we are used too is missing. That what allows you to develop value in the land.

But you burn them down and destroy them because you see them as symbols of oppression. Where you are comes from inside of yourselves.

Why did blacks end up as labourers? Because you have a superior ability to perform the labour. That is your strength. What you lack is the more advanced civilization techniques the whites have developed.

You did not need it, because food is still available for example in summer. In the snow regions where the whites came from they would die if the did not make provision for food in the winter. So they learned to produce more and store for winter. And they learned to share and trade it.

A concept you still obviously do not understand. The whites try to trade land from you, but you where clueless to the concept. Its clear because you still convinced we stole the land.

But I am wasting my time. Go back to your knuckle dragging thinking. Primitive savage. Kill and rape, thats about all you are capable. Black women where the real workers in the black cultures. Black men are useless workers.

'To the Previously Disadvantaged'

We are sorry that our ancestors were intelligent,
advanced and daring enough to explore the wild oceans to discover
new countries and develop them.

We are sorry that those who came before us took you out
of the bush and taught you that there was more to life than
beating drums, killing each other and chasing animals with sticks and
stones.

We are sorry that they planned, funded and developed
roads, towns, mines, factories, airports and harbours, all of
which you now claim to be your long deprived inheritance giving you
every right to change and rename these at your discretion.

We are sorry that our parents taught us the value of
small but strong families, to not breed like rabbits and end up
as underfed, diseased, illiterate shack dwellers living in poverty.

We are sorry that when the evil apartheid government
provided you with schools, you decided they'd look better
without windows or in piles of ashes.

We happily gave up those bad days of getting spanked in
our all white Schools for doing something wrong, and much
prefer these days of freedom where problems can be resolved with
knives and guns.

We are sorry that it is hard to shake off the
bitterness of the past when you keep on raping, torturing and killing our
friends and family members, and then hide behind the fence of
'human rights' with smiles on your faces.

We are sorry that we do not trust the government... We
have no reason to be so suspicious because none of these poor
"hard working intellectuals" have ever been involved in any form of
"corruption or irregularities".

We are sorry that we do not trust the police force and,
even though they have openly admitted that they have lost
the war against crime and criminals, we should not be negative and just
ignore their corruption and carry on hoping for the best.

We are sorry that it is more important to you to have
players of color in our national teams than winning games and
promoting patriotism.

We know that sponsorship doesn't depend on a team's
success.

We are sorry that our border posts have been flung open
and now left you competing for jobs against illegal immigrants
from our beautiful neighbouring countries. All of them countries that have grown into economic powerhouses after kicking out the 'settlers'.

We are sorry that we don't believe in witchcraft, beet
root and garlic cures, urinating on street corners, virginity
testing, slaughtering of bulls in our back yards, trading women for cattle
and other barbaric practices.

Maybe we just grew up differently.

We are sorry that your medical care, water supplies,
roads, railways and electricity supplies are going down the
toilet because skilled people who could have planned for and resolved
these issues had to be thrown away because they were of the wrong
ethnic background and now have to work in foreign countries
where their skills are highly appreciated.

We are so sorry that we'd like this country to fulfil
its potential so we can once again be proud South Africans.

Put some effort into it and you will be able to find out where that is. You do that, and you will be one of those to survive and come back with our God's legion of angels to win the war. They will win the first battle, but by our God's side, we will win the war. The time just isnt right yet. Make plans and prepare yourselves for what is to come. Pretoria and Johannesburg, please wake up and prepare yourselves.

We are sorry that our parents taught us the value of
small but strong families, to not breed like rabbits and end up
as underfed, diseased, illiterate shack dwellers living in poverty.

We are sorry that when the evil apartheid government
provided you with schools, you decided they'd look better
without windows or in piles of ashes.

We happily gave up those bad days of getting spanked in
our all white Schools for doing something wrong, and much
prefer these days of freedom where problems can be resolved with
knives and guns.

We are sorry that it is hard to shake off the
bitterness of the past when you keep on raping, torturing and killing our
friends and family members, and then hide behind the fence of
'human rights' with smiles on your faces.

We are sorry that we do not trust the government... We
have no reason to be so suspicious because none of these poor
"hard working intellectuals" have ever been involved in any form of
"corruption or irregularities".

We are sorry that we do not trust the police force and,
even though they have openly admitted that they have lost
the war against crime and criminals, we should not be negative and just
ignore their corruption and carry on hoping for the best.

We are sorry that it is more important to you to have
players of color in our national teams than winning games and
promoting patriotism.

We know that sponsorship doesn't depend on a team's
success.

We are sorry that our border posts have been flung open
and now left you competing for jobs against illegal immigrants
from our beautiful neighbouring countries. All of them countries that have
grown into economic powerhouses after kicking out the 'settlers'.

We are sorry that we don't believe in witchcraft, beet
root and garlic cures, urinating on street corners, virginity
testing, slaughtering of bulls in our back yards, trading women for cattle
and other barbaric practices.

Maybe we just grew up differently.

We are sorry that your medical care, water supplies,
roads, railways and electricity supplies are going down the
toilet because skilled people who could have planned for and resolved
these issues had to be thrown away because they were of the wrong
ethnic background and now have to work in foreign countries
where their skills are highly appreciated.

We are so sorry that we'd like this country to fulfil
its potential so we can once again be proud South Africans.

@chris
I wish that you and other people of different race and cultures will start to realize that not all whites are hatefull racists and that some of us just wants peace and has nothing to do with apartheid. If everyone has to start killing for what other people's forefathers did don't you think there would be no people left in this beautiful country of ours? I understand the frustration and feel so bad for everyone who was unfairly treated in any way... no one deserves to suffer NO ONE! maybe you just have to stop hating and start understanding that all people (or the majority) are trying since 1994 to get along, to live in peace and to be considerate to all humans.
Please stop being so racist. I understand that the people of the old South Africa (whites) were racist but that is not fair to include the youth of today trying to live together and not worrying about race... when you look at all the multiracial relationships, don't you think people are kind of almost over this thing? Except for a few still... white and black.

You can take a black man from the bush....but you cant take the bush out of the black man!.....

Oh!....and you can take a white man out of aparthied.....but you cant take the aparthied out of him! (in the SA context)

I am not sure which of the two is a better evil.....The Bush......or Aparthied but being a black man myself....and having lived with both evils...I think I will stick with Bush....

Interesting that the White man brought Christianity to Africa. The Bible is such an interesting book, because it teaches us how to live a morally upright life, preaches values such as forgiveness, equality, respect, love for your neighbours, compassion, mercy, giving, and a whole lot of values that makes us civil.

Or is there another bible from which the various people who have contributed so far read from. Some have the guts to quote the Bible while preaching hate speeches, equating themselves with a higher being....ridiculous! I mean are these guys reading the Bible up-side-down or what. I feel truly sorry that we have people who are stuck up in some racial superiority complex. In fact instead of making them civil, it appears its making them evil!!!....What Irony!!!!! Its sad because such people go about cursing everyone of a different race instead of cursing themselves for being so prejudiced. The arguments about corruption, poor governance are valid, and so are the arguments about an unequal economic playing field and the need to correct the injustices of the past. I think people should be mature enough to see beyond colour and beyond self-preservation and see the bigger picture. For me the starting point is to define the goals......What do we all want for this country .....for our children and the next generations. If we are clear and in agreement with those goals, then the next step is to assess our present situation and identify those positives that will move us closer to the goals and equally the obstacles. If corruption is an obstacle surely its in everyone's interest to rid society of it, equally if a well planned land reform program is necessary then all should embrace it. It does not help anyone, and certainly not the writer to throw tantrums like kindergaten kids, because quite frankly it doesnt change anything, other than give one a few red marks on the face!

And finally we need to define the road map towards the goals, and the milestones we need to achieve to realise those goals. A very simple Socio-political and economic development strategy. (Finally I can put my MBA lessons to good use for the betterment of all and free lessons to some misguided missles amongs our midst)

This is all rubbish and hogwash to say the least whilst I may not want to take away anything from the Ladies and Gentlemen who have responded to this article, I say Zimbabwe's way of doing things is the best way that Zimbabwe found to chat their destiny, there is no revolution which is an easy stroll on the park. It is unfortune that we still have rapacious racist supremacist within our ranks who still think that the white race is a supreme race. I sy to all those white racists Go to Hell this is Africa and is for Africans and its for blacks.

You know, reading all these comments fills me with sadness. I am a young, white, south african male. I was born in 1980 when apartheid was still in full swing, but it ended in 1994, officially...when i was 14... whether i wanted to take part in it or not ( I would not have wanted to) I was too young to vote. What saddens me is that we really are still such a splintered, fractured nation. We do not know each other. We tolerate each other as best we can in our day to day lives, but we do not have a deep bond between races. Unfortunately it takes major events such as the world cup to unite us. Why can we not choose to have a united frame of mind perpetually - without the world cup as a catalyst? You can call me shmuck, but why is it that we as humans can choose to adopt animals like dogs and cats, feed them, love them as if they are part of the family, and they do truly become part of the family... but as humans (black and white) we cannot even extend that decency to other human beings? If you can love an animal that does not even belong to the same species as you, why not to another human? For good or for bad, south africa a s a whole needs to come to a radical decision and once again we need to change, It has now been 16 years of freedom and things have only changed on the surface. War will be inevatable if we cannot settle our differences amongst our races. We need to decide what we are going to do. What is the point of a half hearted reconcilliation from both sides? why even bother and waste time? It is either 100% for peace or 100% for war, no compromise, no middle ground. But let us rather choose peace so that we can focus on more pressing issues, e.g. global warming...

south africa is a clear case of missed opportunities. had the blacks and the whites been in truely adult relationships since 1652, south africa would have been hong kong, canada, malaysia, switzerland, and taiwan all rolled into one of africa today with its location, banks, diversity, and natural resources. it should have woken up in 1884, not 1994, when the british empire imposed the borders in the berlin conference of 1884. it should have realized right then and there that it needed radical changes its policies in the face of the poor reaction to the borders that made the british empire win the ballroom, just as the unequal treaties were to East Asia after the opuim wars of the 1830s-1840s. had the whites been excellent partners with the blacks throughout, the south africans would have made very quick work of the borders and the country would have been probably bigger than it is now and certainly would have evolved into a hong kong/switzerland with 1884 borders.

Chris you dumb idiot. Rather than waste your time writing nonsense on blogs about a country and a people you obviously do not understand, I would suggest the following -

Your country has more problems than the good old S.A. will ever have.

Bin Laden and his cronies have it in for you "BIG TIME" brother. When they again unleash their terror on the good old US of A our problems will look like a Sunday School picnic compared to yours.

So, keep your sordit comments about the whites in S.A. to yourself and rather pray that your President and his bunch of skullduggers can protect the likes of you.

Mugabe was voted out a year ago and is still ruling, that`s what yu call democracy, that how the whole of Africa works. Without whites that will be the fate of RSA. Millions of people getting murdered and starving from hunger, but that seams to be the norm in Africa.

We have some very clever and intellectual people here. I am glad this is the case because the end product of this application is easy to understand.

I will spell this out for all of you –

We only have two options in South Africa

Option 1

We live together in peace, tolerate each other, work together to build this country. We fight crime and reap the rewards of our hard work.

We stop our threats, polarization, farm attacks and senseless murders including xenophobic violence. This is in my opinion to much asked in any case.

Option 2

Things go ahead as right now or get even worse. Continue to attack farmers, people of this land, foreigners. Hurt the economy and take away the land from the white people. Continue to talk war and who has the jets, tanks and army.

None of that matters, if you think it does – YOU ARE AN IDIOT!

The end result of option 2 is nothing good for no one. War will destroy this country. It will destroy you and me. Listen to me know. Look at Africa!

I am a racist, just like you. Stop branding this word politically. I love my people just like you love your people. I love my history and stand by it, you’re people were part of it. You should accept your history and the fact that we are part of it.

Now we can blame each other till we are blue in the face of who came here and when. Fact of the matter is the following –

White people are here to stay – note we have nowhere to go accept here!
Black people are here to stay
We can tolerate each other and move forward
We can go to war on each other and move this country back to the stone age

Let me spell this out to all of you, many people will share this sentiment –

If we go option 2, it is not going to be nice. Nothing will ever be the same. There will be no stop and the rest of Africa will look like a kinder garden to what will happen here.

I can not speak for all the white people, not at all for black people but am sure the feeling is a lot the same.

We are not scared of the fact that you have jets, tanks, guns, uniforms and what ever you apeace yourself with. We have ability and will. Just push us far enough.

If you test us, we will unleash it and it will not be good for anyone. Not for us either. We are patient and we have tolerated everything pushed out in front of us.

Let this be clear – do what you want to do! Continue the way you do!

Watch the space, history here will be changed forever, it will be named and talked about for ever there after and written up in great books without lying.

There is a couple of sayings –

BE CAREFULL WHAT YOU WISH FOR

DON’T START SOMETHING YOU CAN NOT FINISH

DON’T BITE THE HAND THAT FEEDS YOU

DON’T COUNT YOUR CHICKENS BEFORE THEY HATCHED

DON’T BITE OF MORE THAN YOU CAN CHEW

And before you go all out on this, it goes both ways, black and white.

You shall reap what you sow, we will be helping with the reaping when the time is here.

The type of reaping will unfortunately be decided by the black majorities of this democratic country and currently I do not see something positively.

Continue to kill our people, one of these days you will be taking from the wrong someone his companion, children or family members and there will be hell to pay.

You better hope and pray that this situation goes to option 1. For the sake of all of us!

Camoe Joe....

You are right....there are some clever and intellectual people here....in fact more cleverer than you think....maybe more cleverer than you also.

You go on and on telling us what you think are facts.....and hoping that you are driving some sense into people's minds by pretending to be a level headed person who is for the good of this country. Well I can read between the lines, your lack of respect and appreciation of the black person and your weird assumptions that we can be sucked into your rhetoric.

Dont dare tell us (blacks) that we should let things as they are or risk white retaliation because quite frankly that argument does not hold. 200 years ago whites defeated the blacks not because of some inner will-power you seem to believe in but purely because of superior artillery....certainly not the case today. Everyone can access the same ammunition and war will ultimately bog down to a numbers game, and guess who has the upper hand on that.

Having said that I am not wanting to start a war, but if whites are not willing to share and give up, then war is inevitable. So the solution is not to just let things as they are, (status quo), but rather to ensure that there are some positive changes that result in more black participation in the economy. If you choose to ignore that point then you are very stupid, because you are going to loose everything. What good is a good economy to me, (black) if I dont enjoy it. I'd rather go Mugabe way in order to enjoy some of it, and you can take that to the bank!

Bottom line, nobody wants to destroy the economy, but the blacks want to be part of it. This is the only option, and not the two options you have there. Ignore this and very soon some nigger will be fu......yo wife and sister in your living room while you watch helplessly....and then they will take away all you got and kiss you.....the Juju way!!!!!
