ANC drops appeal against Kill Boer hatespeech song

Kill the Boer Shoot the Boer genocidal hatespeech song: ruling ANC party reaches out of court settlement with Afriforum civil rights group

City Press  writes October 31 2012  that the ruling ANC-party has dropped its  court appeal against the Shoot the Boer song in a settlement with Afrifoum. Its spokesman Kallie Kriel said they were ‘happy about the out of court settlement which was reached’ over the song. Its attorney Willie Spies said in the Oct 31 2012 press conference announcing it that this was ‘a greater victory for Afriforum because the ANC itself has now agreed to not sing this song any more.’

 SA Judge Colin Lamont had ruled this song  as hatespeech -- and had issued a court-order banning people from singing it in public, as it incited genocidal violence against the vulnerable and very small Afrikaner minority. Afriforum. link  AfriForum's  Willie Spies told the Mail & Guardian on Wednesday the deal was struck at 8.30pm on Tuesday night after a day-long mediation on Friday. "The settlement that has been reached provides for three things.

  • Firstly, the ANC acknowledged that certain struggle songs contain lyrics that originate from a specific era in history which today can be hurtful to minority communities.
  • Secondly, the ANC and Malema undertook to encourage and counsel their supporters and members to refrain from singing songs that could contain hurtful phrases.
  • Thirdly, the parties committed to continued informal debate about cultural heritage and freedom," said Spies.

"As a result, the ANC abandoned its appeal and AfriForum and the Transvaal Agricultural Union abandoned the order granted by [the Supreme Court of Appeal] with all the parties consenting to the substitution of the ... order with this agreement," he added.

The appeal court on September 27 wrote to the affected parties, asking that they explore the possibility of mediation, which was agreed to under the facilitation of Charles Nupen. Last year, the struggle song containing the words "Dubul' iBhunu" (shoot the Boer) was declared hate speech by Judge Colin Lamont in the South Gauteng High Court.  AfriForum took the matter to court after Malema continued singing the song at youth league rallies.  Lamont ruled the words used in the song were "derogatory, dehumanising and hurtful". The judge interdicted all members of the ANC from singing the song in public or at private functions. http://mg.co.za/article/2012-10-31-00-shoot-the-boer-debate-put-to-rest

AFRIFORUM MAKES DEAL WITH ANC OVER SHOOT BOER HATESONG OCT31 2012                                                                Will Zuma et al now stop singing this song?

This still leaves the question whether South African president Jacob Zuma and his followers will now stop singing this banned song?  Also: why isn’t the ANC-alligned socalled non-governmental organisation ‘The SA Human Rights Commission,’ investigating the formal complaints against SA Pres Zuma – amongst others for singing this song in Bloemfontein in January 2012 AFTER it had been ruled hatespeech?

Transvaal Agricultural Union 'satisfied with mediation Agreement in Malema hate speech case"
1.      TAU SA wants to express its satisfaction with the settlement agreement that has been reached between the ANC, Mr Malema, AfriForum and TAU SA, pertaining to the song "shoot the Boer", which matter was enrolled for hearing in the Supreme Court of Appeal on Thursday 1 November 2012.
2.      TAU SA appreciates the fact that the ANC, in particular, has indicated that it is crucial to mutually recognise and respect the rights of all communities to celebrate and protect their cultural heritage and freedom, and that certain words in certain struggle songs may be experienced as hurtful by members of minority communities, and may no longer be applicable in South Africa today.
3.      TAU SA points out that the agreement relates to other issues to be discussed in future between the parties, other than struggle songs.
4.      TAU SA will now take all steps necessary to continue formal dialogue with the leaders of the ANC pertaining to better understanding of the cultural heritages and aspirations of minority groups, including Afrikaners.  TAU SA will most definitely insist that such dialogue should continue at the highest level.
5.      TAU SA also appreciates the fact that the ANC and Mr Malema committed to counselling and encouraging their respective leadership and supporters to act with restraint pertaining to any hurtful experiences that may be caused by the expression and use of struggle songs.
6.      TAU SA will be monitoring closely the development in this regard ant the steps that the ANC and Mr Malema will take in this regard.
7.      TAU SA emphasises the fact that there is wide recognition amongst farmers and Afrikaners in South Africa that violent crime, including farm attacks and murders, remain a huge problem in South Africa, and that such crimes are committed against the background of uncertainties caused by the continuation of the freedom struggle of the ANC and which is in particular pushed forward by the ANC Youth League, in furtherance of the National Democratic Revolution.
8.      TAU SA will therefore engage the ANC in further discussions at the highest level possible on the issue of violent crimes, farm attacks and farm murders.
9.      TAU SA records again that farm murders on white farmers remains a huge concern in South Africa, and that it is investigating the question whether it could be described as genocide in terms of the international law.  1372 white farmers (TAU stats are low estimates)  have been killed since 1990 out of a total of 1591. 

  • 86% of all farm murders have been committed against white farmers.  85 farm attacks were executed during 2011 and 106 during 2012. 
  • The ‘normal’ murder rate according to the current available statistics is 31 persons per 100 000.00 of South Africa's population, whereas for white farmers it amounts to 96 per 100 000.00 citizens. 
  • Therefore white farmers have a three times higher risk of being murdered than any other citizen

10.  TAU SA is therefore appreciative of the fact that the ANC and Mr Malema have at long last agreed to engage with TAU SA on the issues furthering a climate of armed violence and violent crimes, and to address these issues not only in discussions with TAU SA, but also among their leaders and supporters.

War is Upon South Africa

Top political scientist says the public distrust of the ruling ANC-party is so great that South Africa now is being plunged in a state of Warfare: http://www.neo-genocide.com/farmitracker/reportsview/476

War is Upon South Africa:A Secretive, territorialised violence of a low-intensity war, of counter-insurgency, is upon us’ warns Richard Pithouse, who teaches politics at Rhodes University in Grahamstown, South Africa:

Published by the South African Civil Society Information Service (Johannesburg)

30 October 2012 - Pithouse writes: "When COSATU and the Communist Party have to rely on the police and their stun grenades, rubber bullets and, by some accounts, live ammunition to force their way into a stadium against the opposition of striking workers it is clear that their assumption of a permanent right to leadership is facing a serious challenge from below. It's equally clear that the ruling party and its allies intend to force obedience rather than to seek to renegotiate support or enable democratic engagement, that the police aren't even making a pretence of being loyal to the law rather than the ruling party and that this is the way that Blade Nzimande likes it.

WAR IS UPON US BY POLITICAL SCIENCE PROF PITHOUSE OCT302012

   Misuse of SAPS to defend authority of ANC in Rustenburg:

The misuse of the police to defend the authority of the ruling party in Rustenburg is no exception to a broadly democratic consensus. In fact it has become a routine feature of political life. At the same time as the drama was unfolding in Rustenburg on Saturday a meeting with technical experts to discuss a plan to upgrade the Harry Gwala shack settlement on the East Rand was summarily banned by the police on the grounds that it was a 'security threat'. The settlement is in urgent need of services as basic as water and refuse removal but millions have been spent on a pavilion in memory of Oliver Tambo adjacent to the settlement. As the ANC's role in the struggles against apartheid is memorialised that memory is simultaneously desecrated as it is mobilised to legitimate the increasingly violent containment of popular dissent.

Ruling SA party’s hegemony on the mines in Rustenburg has collapsed:

RUSTENBURG AMPLATS VIOLENCE STOP FIRE ENGINES FROM DOUSING TORCHED MINESHAFT AND SUB STATION OCT302012

   He writes: “The collapse of the ruling party's hegemony on the mines in Rustenburg is not the first time that the ANC has lost control of a territory where it once took its right to rule for granted. In early 2006 the ANC was, despite a large police presence and a large contingent of supporters bussed in from elsewhere, unable to go ahead with a rally to be addressed by S'bu Ndebele, the then Premier of KwaZulu-Natal, in the Kennedy Road shack settlement in Durban. Some years later the ANC eventually took that space back with the open use of violence organised through party structures with the support of the police. But despite the announcement, made by a senior SACP member, that the state had decided to 'disband' the movement that had won popular support in Kennedy Road, and despite tremendous intimidation and the gross misuse of the police and the criminal justice system to try and effect this ban, that movement, Abahlali baseMjondolo endures. The rupture in Rustenburg may also cohere into an enduring force. And there will be more ruptures to come.

   “There are important respects in which the politics developed in and around Marikana is very different from that developed in and around Kennedy Road seven years earlier.

People have decided to take their future into their own hands – to speak for themselves where they live and work:

STRIKERS SA ESCALATING COMMUNISTS DESTROYING MINEINFRASTRUCTURE SA

“But one of the things that these two points of rupture do have in common is a firm insistence on the right of people in struggle, people who have decided to take their future into their own hands, to speak for themselves.

  • This shared suspicion of authorised forms of local representation, and the consequent desire of people to represent themselves where they live and work, could, along with other points of connection, ranging from familial links to a shared experience of repression, provide common ground for linking struggles in urban shack settlements and on the mines. It has, in itself, no predetermined political character but, amongst other potentials, some of which could well be marked by a dangerous counter-brutality, the rejection of the ruling party's local mechanisms for sustaining political control does carry the possibility for a renewal of democratic possibility.

   South Africa’s political class is treated as if it is above the law…

The path that winds from Polokwane to Kennedy Road and on to Marikana and Nkandla and then up, past the reach of our gaze and over the horizon, is not taking us towards anything like the kinds of societies imagined in the Freedom Charter or the Constitution. The only visible transition on offer is one in which liberal democracy is increasingly replaced with a system in which the political class is treated as if it is above the law, the state is openly used as an instrument for the political class to accumulate rather than to redistribute wealth and power and people engaged in certain kinds of popular dissent are treated as if they are beneath the law.

Police violence, including torture and murder, as well as state sanction for political violence by ANC supporters and political assassination have all become familiar features of our political life.

   Powerful figures in the ruling alliance openly speak the language of war:… against all dissent:

And powerful figures and forces in the ruling alliance from Jacob Zuma to Sidumo Dlamini, the Communist Party, MK veterans, SADTU and others are openly speaking the language of war. They may say that the war is ‘on the enemy within, enemy agents, neoliberals, imperialists, criminals, enemies of the national-democratic revolution and counter-revolutionaries ‘-- but what they really mean is that they do not intend to accept popular dissent as legitimate or to engage it through democratic institutions.

Instead it is proposed that dissent be dealt with by the police and on occasion the army, as well as counter-mobilisation that aims to destroy rather than to engage and which is already often armed, and, in Sidumo Dlamini's view, MK (UmkhontoWeSizwe).

Secretive, territorialised violence of a low-intensity war – a war of counter-insurgency --  is upon us

“War, generally not the war of open manoeuvre that we saw in Marikana and which we've seen, although with nothing like the same degree of murderous intent, in shack settlements across the country in recent years but rather the scattered, often secretive and frequently highly territorialised violence of low intensity war, of counter-insurgency, is upon us. The Kennedy Road, eTwatwa, Makause and Zakheleni shack settlements have all experienced this since Polokwane (Pietersburg).  

The figures in the ANC that talk of ‘a return to principled leadership’ have no material base from which they could make a serious attempt to challenge the capture of the party and, thereby, the state by factions that are both predatory and authoritarian. For this reason their discourse functions, irrespective of their intentions, to legitimate the party rather than to organise or represent a last ditch attempt to save it. And, with the exception of the metal worker's union, Marikana has marked the end of COSATU's claim to democratic credibility and moral authority.

  • If there is to be a renewal of democratic possibilities it will have to be undertaken against the ruling party and its allies.

   A popular struggle against a post-colonial state is a very different thing to a struggle against domination:

Popular struggle against a post-colonial state is a very different thing to a national liberation struggle against an internationally discredited form of domination. But the time has come when we have to, like the generations that confronted the end of the illusions in postcolonial states elsewhere, face a future in which defeat of democratic and progressive aspirations is the most likely outcome of the ruthless intersection between elite nationalism and capitalism.

And while there are some examples of popular struggles in the postcolony that have attained some critical mass in recent years they have also, as in Haiti and Bolivia, had to confront serious limitations. There is no easy route out of this crisis.

The line dividing the political from the economic has been drawn to sustain both privilege and exclusion:

   Nonetheless it is clear that the only viable resolution is one that includes the majority of us. This could take the form of an authoritarian and even quasi-fascist response to the crisis. But it could also take the form of a democratic project that seeks to move beyond the liberal consensus that reduced democracy to voting, court action and NGO campaigns and to build the political power of the dispossessed from the ground up. But if an insurgent project of this nature is to have any enduring success it will have to understand that the line dividing the political from the economic has been drawn to sustain both privilege and exclusion and that wealth, power and the structures that sustain them need to be subject to serious critique. This would put such a project at odds with most of the media and civil society as well as the ruling party making it, to say the least, a risky endeavour. But if political empowerment doesn't translate into material empowerment - into land, housing, decent incomes and decent education - it will be little more than a detour on the road that has already taken us from Polokwane to Nkandla with our journey marked out in a steadily accumulating record of intimidation and blood.

   The challenges that confront us are tremendous.

But when war is announced there are only two real choices - to resist or to submit.

ZA Boeren in voorstadium tot volkerenmoord

Shoot the Boer, Shoot the Farmer’ lied van ANC-leiders  bevordert haataanvallen op blanken:

Vertaald uit het Duits door E.J. Bron: (July 2012)

met nieuwste inlichting bijgevoegd in onderstaand artikel door A.J. Stuijt BOER ONEHUNDREDPERCENT PIC

video: Genocide of the South African European Minority by Friends4Humanity:

 

Sinds 1994 werden er in Zuid-Afrika meer dan 3000 blanke Boeren vermoord, vaak onder vreselijke omstandigheden. Alleen dit jaar al werden binnen een maand al 17 moorden geregistreerd, waaronder zes “Boerenmoorden” – moorden op ‘blanken’, die op verafgelegen boerderijen wonen. (ed: maar ook gezinnen in de steden ontsnappen niet aan de moordbenden).

De situatie is zo alarmerend, dat de in Washington gevestigde NGO “ Genocide Watch ” in Julie 2012 permanent de status van Zuid-Afrika van observatieniveau 5 (polariserend) naar niveau 6 (voorstadium tot volkerenmoord) verhoogde: aankondiging door Dr Gregory Stanton, its president:

Malema en Zuma scheppen atmosfeer van angst en geweld:

Een hoofdrol bij het scheppen van deze atmosfeer van angst en geweld speelt Julius Malema, de inmiddels geroyeerde, maar altijd nog sterk ondersteunde leider van de jeugdorganisatie van het Afrikaans Nationaal Congres (ANC). Volgens het economische tijdschrift “Forbes” geldt hij als een van de meest invloedrijke jonge mannen van het land. Meerdere keren begon hij op manifestaties liedjes te zingen met een inhoud zoals “Dood de Boeren, dood de farmers” (“Shoot the Boer, Shoot the Farmer”) en bevorderde daarmee de haat op blanken. Foutieve beweringen, volgens welke “loonarbeiders slecht door de Boeren zouden worden behandeld” en dat “de blanken 80% van het land bezitten” – hoewel dat in het jaar 2001 in werkelijkheid minder dan 33% was (en in 2012 minder dan 0,5% (ee half-procent) van totale ZA landoppervlakte) – stookten de agressie tegen blanke Boeren nog eens extra op. (Foto onder: Julius Malema).

Misdaden als deel van de politieke berekening

De Boerenmoorden zijn geen gewone misdaden, maar bevinden zich in een context, waarin de ANC-regering uit politieke redenen af wil van de blanke Boeren. Daarmee gaat het dus om volkerenmoord en om een misdaad tegen de menselijkheid”, zei de Zuid-Afrikaan Henk van de Graaf, vicepresident van de Transvaal Agricultural Union (TAU) in februari op een internationale conferentie in het Europese Parlement.

Henk vd Graaf Transvaal AGricultural Union at European Parliament
  • Afgevaardigden van het Vlaams Belang, de FPÖ en de Lega Nord hadden deze georganiseerd om hun zorg uit te drukken over de geweldsexcessen in Zuid-Afrika. Daarbij werd de regering ertoe opgeroepen om eindelijk veiligheidsverhogende maatregelen te nemen.

De  Zuidafrikaanse Europese minderheid verzetten zich steeds sterker tegen het antiblanke racisme: (ed.: Bij het Internationale Gerechtshof in Den Haag heeft (de Transvaalse Landbouwunie ‘s ondervoorzitter Henk vd Graaff in April 2012 ook een tweede aanklacht ingediend tegen Julius Malema wegens misdaden tegen de menselijkheid. )

In 2010 dienden een boer uit Rustenburg en in 2012 de Boerenvolksraadverkiezingsraad ook klachten in: zij beschuldigden allen de provocateur ervan met zijn liedjes aanhangers van de ANC-jeugdorganisatie op te roepen tot volkerenmoord op de Boeren van Zuid-Afrika. Uit angst voor vervolging zou de Rustenburgse Boer met zijn familie reeds korte tijd later Zuid-Afrika hebben verlaten.

(Ed:) Nu zingt ook SA president Zuma zelf het lied bij openbare vergaderingen:

‘New American’ slams Genocide in SA

Wed, 24 October 2012  “The New American’ journalist   Alex Newman:

Genocide & communist enslavement threaten South AfricaAFRIKANER GENOCIDE WHITE CROSSES MONUMENT PIETERSBURG ROAD MAY 27 2012

 Above: Along a highway on a grassy hill, thousands of white crosses — each one representing an individual victim of brutal farm murders, or plaasmoorde in Afrikaans — are a stark reminder of the reality facing European-descent farmers in the new South Africa. One of the iron crosses was planted last year in memory of two-year-old Willemien Potgieter, who was executed on a farm and left in a pool of her own blood. Her parents were murdered, too — the father hacked to death with a machete. Before leaving, the half-dozen killers tied a note to the gate: “We killed them. We’re coming back.”

The Potgieter family massacre is just one of the tens of thousands of farm attacks to have plagued South Africa since 1994. Like little Willemien’s cross, many of those now-iconic emblems represent innocent children, even babies, who have been savagely murdered, oftentimes after being tortured in ways so gruesome, horrifying, and barbaric, that mere words could never adequately describe it. The death toll is still rising. (daily updates)

FRIENDS4HUMANITY PAMPHLET2  Above: Texas-based human rights site  http://www.friends4humanity.org details genocidal acts of ANC-regime against Afrikaner minority

US immigrant Andre Vandenberg: five relatives brutally murdered in SA:

Like countless South Africans, Andre Vandenberg has lost multiple relatives to violence in the so-called “Rainbow Nation.” In separate incidents, according to Vandenberg, a motorcycle exporter and former military man who now lives in the United States, two of his female cousins were brutally and repeatedly raped in front of their husbands. One of the women was pregnant with the couple’s first child. All five victims were murdered. After sodomizing and killing the husbands, in both cases, the ruthless attackers raped Vandenberg’s cousins again.

Enduring the horror for hours, one of the women was eventually shot. The other had a tire filled with gasoline put around her neck and set ablaze — the agonizing punishment known as “necklacing,” which was once commonly meted out to black opponents of the predominantly black African National Congress (ANC) now ruling South Africa in an unholy alliance with the South African Communist Party (SACP) and an umbrella group for labor unions. Nelson Mandela’s wife, Winnie, was known for publicly supporting the barbaric act. Nobody was ever arrested in connection with those two farm attacks.

Before Vandenberg lost his cousins, his father was killed by a truck driver in a suspicious accident. The drunken suspect, apparently a respected figure within the ANC, was arrested at the scene. However, under pressure from the ANC, the killer was released on $100 bail. Again with help from the ANC, Vandenberg said, the driver fled and was never prosecuted for the killing. No explanation was ever given by authorities, despite repeated appeals for answers.

Vandenberg’s brother deported back to SA: murdered within a year of arrival:

After being deported back to South Africa from the United States over an alleged failure to report a change of address, Vandenberg’s brother was killed, too.

  • Within a year of his arrival, he was brutally murdered. Witnesses watched the murder unfold and told police, but as has become typical, nobody was ever prosecuted. A male cousin of Vandenberg’s, meanwhile, was shot in the chest while being robbed. And as is often the case, the murder was labeled an “accident” by authorities.

It’s racial crime,” insisted Vandenberg, an Afrikaner descendant of Dutch settlers, in an interview with The New American. “The ANC people are using genocide — they’re pro-genocide. Long term, they want all the property that belongs to the whites.” The black-led ANC-communist regime is “twice as racist” as the former white-led apartheid government ever was, he added. And along with its supporters, the South African government is willing to do “anything” to accomplish its goals.

 ‘Jacob Zuma ‘s chanting ‘Kill the Boer’ is taken very seriously by his followers ‘

http://youtu.be/femMZ7Hu6dQ

Below: “We are going to shoot them with the machine gun; they are going to run; you are a Boer [white farmer]; shoot the Boer,” the South African president sang at an ANC rally in Bloemfontein in January 2012, an incident that was caught on film and posted online.

SA pres Jacob Zuma singing Kill Boer to followers Jan2012

Above: When  top ANC government leaders, including South African President Jacob Zuma, chant about exterminating whites, “some people think they’re just singing songs,” Vandenberg said, becoming visibly uncomfortable at the thought of it. “But I think they’re very serious about that. That’s why we have all the farm murders.... What they do, their followers will follow.”


In its defense, the ANC regime points out that “crime affects all South Africans”; and it is true, the country has one of the highest murder rates in the world — blacks, whites, people of Asian origin, and others are all terrorized by it.

ANC lies about anti-white genocide:

But respected independent experts who have investigated allegations of anti-white genocide in the Rainbow Nation have concluded that the government is not being honest about the wave of genocidal murders. The ANC’s national spokesman declined repeated requests for comment.

This is an orchestrated Genocide… top expert:
Following a fact-finding mission to South Africa in July, Dr. Gregory Stanton, head of the non-profit group Genocide Watch, announced his conclusions: There is an orchestrated genocidal campaign targeting whites, and white farmers in particular. The respected organization released
a report about its investigation shortly afterward. On a scale the group developed to identify the phases of genocide, South Africa has been moved to stage six: the preparation and planning phase. Step seven is extermination. The eighth and final stage: denial after the fact.

http://youtu.be/ylKgntJcP4s

Dr gregory stanton Genocide on Afrikaner genocide
  • Among the startling discoveries, long known to South Africans and analysts monitoring the powder keg, was evidence pointing to the ANC regime itself. “There is thus strong circumstantial evidence of government support for the campaign of forced displacement and atrocities against White farmers and their families,” Genocide Watch leaders said in their report, entitled Why Are Afrikaner Farmers Being Murdered in South Africa?

“There is direct evidence of SA [South African] government incitement to genocide.”
According to experts and estimates compiled by citizens who track the killing spree, at least 3,000 white farmers in South Africa, known as Boers (from the Dutch word for “farmer”), have been brutally massacred over the last decade. Some estimates put the figures even higher, but it is hard to know because the ANC government has purposely made it impossible to determine the true extent.

With the total number of commercial farmers in South Africa estimated at between 30,000 and 40,000, analysts say as many as 10 percent have already been exterminated. Even more have come under attack.

This is far worse than murder: even children & infants are raped, sliced, tortured, left for dead, boiling water poured down their throats, burnt with hot irons, dragged along dirt roads for miles…FARMER DRAGGED BEHIND BAKKIE BY FEET TORTURE METHOD BOER GENOCIDE

Above: This Afrikaner farmer was dragged on a dirt road for miles in horrendous torture ordeal: Many of the SA genocide victims, including children and even infants, are raped, men or sodomised, many are savagely tortured or both before being executed or left for dead. Sometimes boiling water is poured down their throats. Other attacks involve burning victims with hot irons or slicing them up with machetes.

                                                                                                                       -----------------

The South African government, dominated by the communist-backed ANC, has responded to the surging wave of racist murders by denying the phenomenon, implausibly claiming that many of the attacks are simply “regular” crimes. Despite fierce criticism, authorities also stopped tracking statistics that would provide a more accurate picture of what is truly going on.

In many cases, the murders are simply classified as “burglaries” or even “accidents” and ignored, so the true murder figures are certainly much higher than officials admit.

Police also involved in murders and coverups:

Police, meanwhile, are often involved in the murders or at least the coverups, multiple sources report. A white South African exile living in the United States told The New American that when victims are able to defend themselves or apprehend the would-be perpetrators, many of the attackers are found to be affiliated with the ruling ANC or its youth wing.

Experts are not buying the government’s coverup.

“The farm murders, we have become convinced, are not accidental,” said Dr. Stanton of Genocide Watch during his fact-finding mission to South Africa. It was very clear that the massacres were not common crimes, he added — especially because of the absolute barbarity used against the victims. “We don’t know exactly who is planning them yet, but what we are calling for is an international investigation.”

Indeed, most unbiased analysts concede that the thousands of brutal killings and tens of thousands of attacks are part of a broader pattern. And according to Dr. Stanton, who was also involved in the anti-apartheid movement in South Africa and has decades of experience examining genocide and communist terror, the trend points toward a troubled future for the nation.

“These things I have seen before in other genocides…” Dr Stanton of Genocide Watch:
“Things of this sort are what I have seen before in other genocides,” he said of the murdered white farmers, pointing to several examples, including a victim’s body that was left with an open Bible on top and other murder victims who were tortured, disemboweled, raped, or worse. “This is what has happened in Burundi; it’s what happened in Rwanda. It has happened in many other places in the world.”

Speaking in Pretoria at an event organ­ized by the anti-communist Transvaal Agricultural Union, Dr. Stanton also lashed out at the effort to dehumanize whites in South Africa by portraying them as “settlers.” The label is meant to paint Afrikaner white farmers — descendants of Northern Europeans who arrived centuries ago, some as far back as the 1600s — as people who do not belong there.

  • “High-ranking ANC government officials who continuously refer to Whites as ‘settlers’ and ‘colonialists of a special type’ are using racial epithets in a campaign of state-sponsored dehumanization of the White population as a whole,” Genocide Watch said in its latest report. “They sanction gang-organized hate crimes against Whites, with the goal of terrorizing Whites through fear of genocidal annihilation.”

Dehumanisation process of Afrikaners which leads to genocide:
It is the same process that happened prior to the infamous genocide against Christian Armenians in Turkey, Stanton explained. The dehumanization phenomenon also occurred against the Jewish people in Germany under the National Socialist (Nazi) regime of mass-murderer Adolf Hitler, well before the Nazi tyrant began implementing his monstrous “final solution.”

Unfortunately, South Africa might be next in line. “Whenever you have that kind of dehumanization … you have the beginning of that downward spiral into genocide,” Stanton noted, adding that the situation in South Africa had already moved well beyond that stage. The next phase before extermination, which began years ago in South Africa, is organizing to actually carry it out.

Stanton: worried about genocide plans of organized militia-groups

ANCyouthleagueTRAINING MILITIAS FOR SOCALLED RURAL CENSUS Above: Stanton: “We are worried that there are organized groups that are in fact doing that planning,” Stanton continued during his speech. “It became clear to us that the [ANC] Youth League was this kind of organization — it was planning this kind of genocidal massacre and also the forced displacement of whites from South Africa.”

Genocide Watch: SA in Stage Six – preparation – of Genocide. 

:Genocide Watch first raised its alert level for South Africa from stage five to stage six when then-ANC Youth League boss Julius Malema began openly singing a racist song aimed at inciting murder against white South African farmers: “Shoot the Boer” and “Kill the Boer” were some of the lyrics. Described by the anti-genocide group as a “racist Marxist-Leninist,” Malema has also been quoted as saying that “all whites are criminals” and threatening to steal white farmers’ land by force. He said the farm murders would stop when Africans of European descent surrendered their land.

After the calls to genocide made international headlines, the South African judiciary ruled that the song advocating murder of whites was unlawful hate speech. Genocide Watch moved South Africa back down to stage five. Incredibly, however, the president of South Africa, ANC’s Jacob Zuma, began singing the song early this year, too.

“We are going to shoot them with the machine gun; they are going to run; you are a Boer [white farmer]; shoot the Boer,” the South African president sang at an ANC rally in Bloemfontein in January 2012, an incident that was caught on film and posted online.

Since then, the number of murdered white South African farmers has been growing each month, according to reports. (link of latest updates 

ANC HATESPEECH FEEL IT ITS WAR  Other senior government officials, meanwhile, have openly called for “war.” South Africa is now back at stage six.

“This is the kind of talk that of course is not only pre-genocidal, it also comes before crimes against humanity,” Dr. Stanton said, urging everyone to remember that they are all members of the human race. “Those who would be deniers, and who would try to ignore the warning signs in this country, I think are ignoring the facts.”

There is also increasing “polarization,” where the target population — white farmers in this case, and even moderates of all races — are portrayed as an “enemy,” Stanton explained about the march to genocide. And that phenomenon is ever-more apparent in South Africa today, with the situation starting to spiral out of control.

ANC-regime disarming struggling ‘white’ farmers:

Meanwhile, the South African government is stepping up efforts to disarm the struggling white farmers — stripping them of their final line of defense against genocidal attacks. As has consistently been the case throughout history, of course, disarmament is always a necessary precursor to totalitarianism and the eventual mass slaughter of target groups. In fact, arms in the hands of citizens are often the final barrier to complete enslavement and even extermination.

“The government has disbanded the commando units of white farmers that once protected their farms, and has passed laws to confiscate the farmers’ weapons,” Genocide Watch noted on its website in an update about South Africa posted in July. “Disarmament of a targeted group is one of the surest early warning signs of future genocidal killings.”

Jail for whites is a virtual AIDS-death sentence

Even mere possession of an “unregistered” or “unlicensed” weapon — licenses have become extraordinarily difficult to obtain, if not impossible — can result in jail time. And in South Africa, especially for whites, prison is a virtual death sentence, with widespread rape and HIV infections being the norm.

Those who do surrender their guns may find themselves defenseless in the face genocidal terror — again, a potential death sentence. South African exiles who spoke with TNA said that many of the guns confiscated from whites by officials have later been found at the gruesome murder scenes of white farmers.

  • The United Nations defines genocide as “the deliberate and systematic destruction, in whole or in part, of an ethnic, racial, religious, or national group.” The term also includes actions other than simply wholesale slaughter, though. According to the UN, among the crimes that can constitute genocide are causing serious harm to members of a specific minority group; deliberately inflicting conditions on the minority aimed at bringing about its destruction in whole or in part; seeking to prevent births among the targeted population; and forcibly transferring minority children to others.

Former Mandela adminsitration consultant warns of Afrikaner genocide:

South African Sonia Hruska, a former Mandela administration consultant who served as a coordinator in policy implementation from 1994 to 2001 before moving to the United States, told The New American that many or even most of those conditions have already been met — and any single one can technically constitute genocide if it is part of a systematic attempt to destroy a particular group. “Acknowledge it. Don’t deny it,” she said. Other activists and exiles agree.

Meanwhile, Hruska and other experts say that the government is encouraging the problem, actively discriminating against whites, and in many cases even facilitating the ongoing atrocities.

“Forced displacement from their farms has inflicted on the Afrikaner ethnic group conditions of life calculated to bring about its complete or partial physical destruction, an act of genocide also prohibited by the Genocide Convention,” Genocide Watch said in its most recent report. “In our analysis, the current ANC leadership also publicly uses incitement to genocide with the long-term goal of forcibly driving out or annihilating the White population from South Africa.”

Many South Africans are in denial:

Of course, not all South Africans — especially city dwellers — are convinced that there is an ongoing genocide in their country, or even that one may be coming. The vast majority of blacks and whites would simply like to live in peace with each other.
However, virtually everyone who is paying attention agrees that without solutions, the precarious situation in the Rainbow Nation will continue to deteriorate, going from bad to worse, sooner rather than later.

Communist Threat: grab Land, Mines; enslave SA under totalitarian rule:
Behind the genocide lurks another issue that is inseparable from it — the ongoing communist effort to completely enslave South Africa under totalitarian rule. In fact, aside from white supremacists, who have seized on the problems in the Rainbow Nation to spread hate against blacks, most activists believe the stirring up of racial tensions is not an end in itself. Instead, it is a means to the ultimate end of foisting socialism on the nation while eliminating all potential resistance.

The issue of land distribution, which has become one of the key drivers of the downward spiral, is among the greatest concerns. The white minority in South Africa still owns much of the land despite ANC promises to redistribute it to blacks.

  • But the redistribution that has occurred — as in neighboring Zimbabwe — has largely resulted in failure, with redistributed farms often failing quickly while producing little to no food.

Despite the atrocious track record so far, extremists, including elements of the ANC-dominated government, are now hoping to expropriate land from white farmers more quickly, with some factions even arguing that it should be done with no compensation at all. And the communist agenda here, as in virtually everywhere else where forcible land redistribution has been adopted, has even broader goals than just enriching cronies.

“Whatever system of land tenure is adopted in South Africa, the communists — in the long run — have in mind to take away all private property. That should never be forgotten,” Stanton warned, noting that he has lived in communist-run countries before. “Every place you go where communists have taken over, they take away private ownership because private ownership gives people the power — the economic power — to oppose their government. Once you have taken that away, there is no basis on which you can have the economic power to oppose the government.”

Of course, this would not be the first time a similar tragedy has happened in southern Africa. When Marxist dictator Robert Mugabe seized power in Zimbabwe (formerly known as Rhodesia, once one of the richest countries on the continent — “the breadbasket of Africa”), he began a ruthless war against the white population and his political opponents of all colors.
The country promptly spiraled into chaos and mass starvation under the Mugabe regime when the tyrant “redistributed” the farms and wealth to his cronies, who of course knew nothing about farming. The regime butchered tens of thousands of victims, and estimates suggest that millions have died as a direct result of Mugabe’s Marxist policies. Many fled to South Africa.
Whites who refused to leave their property during the “redistribution” were often tortured and killed by the regime or its death squads. With Mugabe still in charge, the tragic plight of Zimbabwe continues to worsen today. But the mass-murdering despot is still held in high regard by many senior officials in the ANC.

“As a group, Afrikaner farmers stand in the way of the South African Communist Party’s goal to implement their Marxist/Leninist/Stalinist New Democratic Revolution and specifically the confiscation of all rural land belonging to White Afrikaner farmers,” Genocide Watch officials noted in their most recent report.

Beyond land, there is also the mining sector, which is crucial to keeping the rapidly deteriorating South African economy afloat. With the recent labor unrest and miner strikes focusing international attention on the “Rainbow Nation,” there are still more questions than answers. What has become clear, though, is that at least certain factions within South Africa’s ruling elite are seeking to exploit the crisis to advance the cause of nationalization.

Hysteria is whipped up amongst black South Africans by politicians, aspiring powerbrokers:

Politicians and aspiring powerbrokers seized on the escalating crisis — multiple gold and platinum mines were idled because of the ongoing strikes — to whip up hysteria for political purposes, analysts said.

SANDF  CONVOYS OCT 20 21 2012 BLOEMFONTEIN AND OTTOSDAL DELAREYVILLE Above: In mid-September (*and to the present)over a thousand soldiers were deployed to support an embattled police force, as the ruling ANC regime and its communist partners sought to blame business for the tensions.

The ruling alliance consisting of the ANC, the South African Communist Party (SACP), and the Conference of South African Trade Unions (COSATU) implausibly claimed after an inquiry that mining companies were to blame for the chaos: “It is therefore our considered view that employers have an interest in fanning this conflict to reverse the gains achieved by workers over a long period of time.”

According to the ruling alliance, the mining businesses were deliberately stirring up union rivalries to suppress wages and benefits. However, credible analysts largely rejected the allegations as preposterous; the firms in question have already lost huge amounts of money as many of their mines remained shut down because of the strikes. Stock prices plunged, too.

Meanwhile, multiple communist agitators within and outside the ANC renewed their calls to nationalize the mines. The move, however, was hardly a surprise. Consider that even before seizing power, state ownership of the sector was established ANC policy. “The nationalization of the mines, banks and monopoly industries is the policy of the ANC and a change or modification of our views in this regard is inconceivable,” Nelson Mandela said in a 1990 statement from prison.

Malema inserted himself into the centre of the growing labor unrest in South Africa

They are still at it today. Marxist agitator and former ANC Youth League boss Malema, famous for corruption, inciting genocide against white South Africans, and demanding that the regime nationalize virtually the entire economy, inserted himself at the center of the growing labor unrest. He called for, among other schemes, nationwide strikes and the nationalization of the whole mining industry.

After Malema was expelled from the ANC earlier this year, the suspiciously wealthy communist racist — he lives far beyond his means and was recently charged with corruption — has started to attack South African ANC President Zuma, a polygamist and fellow open communist who also regularly sings the infamous hate song calling for the extermination of whites. After strikers were killed by police last month, Malema, apparently upset that Zuma had not sunk South Africa into total communist tyranny quickly enough, said, “How can he call on people to mourn those he has killed? He must step down.”

Observers, even those within South Africa’s ruling alliance, however, suggested the unrest was actually being carefully orchestrated by power-hungry elements within the communist-backed ANC itself. Even top officials within the alliance are suspicious about what is going on. According to COSATU President Sdumo Dlamini, for example, Malema supporters within the ANC were hoping to plunge South Africa into deeper chaos to solidify their power. “We also understand that there have been certain individuals behind him who are funding this for their own political ambitions,” Dlamini said. “Julius Malema may be the point person running at the front, but we know that there are big guns behind him.” And big money, too.

Dlamini said COSATU was “very angry” that unsuspecting mine workers were being used as pawns by opportunists, sometimes even being killed in the process. “This is a systematic, orchestrated, long-time plan that is unfolding now,” he added. “The ANC as the ruling party shouldn’t be afraid to be bold, condemn and expose.... The ANC must continue to identify and deal with those who fund this chaos.”

Communists historically often create superficial impression of internal division
Communists, of course, have historically been known to create the superficial impression of internal division to further their agenda while collaborating together behind the scenes — the use of strategic disinformation, as defectors have called it. Obviously, there are occasions when would-be communist despots fight among themselves as well. It remains unclear what, if anything, may be going on outside of the limelight between the ANC, the SACP, and other totalitarian forces working to crush individual liberty and all resistance within South Africa.

Other analysts attributed the expanding labor unrest to widely different causes, ranging from anger over the ANC regime’s lawless corruption to genuine grievances about dangerous working conditions and low pay at the mines. Tribal tensions have also been cited as playing a role, though just how significant is difficult to determine.

Numerous observers have attributed the violent tensions to rivalries between the ANC-linked National Union of Mineworkers (NUM), which is the largest member of COSATU, and its increasingly influential rival known as the Association of Mineworkers and Construction Union (AMCU). Some experts said the crackdown on protests was an effort to quash the AMCU before it further splintered workers’ support for the ruling ANC-SACP-COSATU alliance.

Critics have accused the AMCU, which touts itself as anti-communist and has long criticized the established powerbrokers for corruption, of fomenting the unrest. The South African Communist Party even called for AMCU leaders to be arrested after the incident, and among the ruling communist establishment, fears about the renegade union are reportedly growing.

The chaos has been ongoing since early this year, but it exploded and entered into the international headlines in August after dozens of striking miners were killed in what has since been dubbed the “Marikana massacre.” Police, who were reportedly fired upon by armed demonstrators, returned fire, killing more than 30 people.

(*On the video below: it is mentioned that some miners also were found with bulletholes in their backs, indicating they were shot dead by their own comrades charging towards the police behind them.)


Top government officials — many of whom have personal stakes in the situation including shares in the mining firms — have vowed to crack down on the strikes. Proud communist revolutionary Jeff Radebe, the “Justice Minister” in the ANC regime, said at a September 14 press conference that authorities were intervening because the mining industry is crucial to South Africa’s crumbling economy. “The South African government has noted and is deeply concerned by the amount of violence, threats and intimidation that is currently taking place in our country,” he told reporters, warning that anyone taking part in “illegal gatherings” would be “dealt with” very swiftly. “Our government will not tolerate these acts any further.”

Critics of the harsh response warned that raids and use of force against miners would likely contribute to further unrest. Perhaps that is the desired outcome, with anarchy helping to pave the way for police-state measures. While the crisis was growing, however, Marxist genocidal forces seized the opportunity to unleash an even larger bloodbath.

Friends 4 Humanity:
A newly formed U.S.-based group of human rights activists and South African exiles known as
Friends 4 Humanity, founded to raise awareness about the genocide of the South African minority, told The New American at the time that the number of racist attacks and murders against Afrikaner farmers had surged dramatically amid the labor unrest.

  • There were at least 30 documented attacks in the first two weeks of September — many resulting in multiple murders. http://friends4humanity.org/

“Since the beginning of 2012 we have noticed that murders increased to approximately one every second day, with some victims as young as six months,” said Sonia Hruska, the former Mandela consultant who is also a founding member of the new organization. “However, since the start of the mining unrest it has now escalated to as much as at least one attack a day with multiple fatal victims.”

Impeding the Plan
The New American magazine warned readers almost two decades ago that the ANC leaders of the anti-apartheid movement and their foreign backers, despite the establishment media’s bogus claims, were deliberately plotting to condemn that nation to communism. The signs were all over the place — literally. For example, Nelson Mandela made a public appearance in front of a giant hammer and sickle with SACP chief Joe Slovo. Now, after almost 20 years of patient waiting, that conquest appears to be nearing its final phases as anti-communist whites are slaughtered to make way for a collectivist “utopia” ruled by the ANC and the SACP. Troublesome blacks were exterminated by the ANC and its allies before 1994.

Among South Africans and foreigners concerned about the ongoing problems and a looming calamity, however, there is a wide range of thoughts about what should happen.

Dr Stanton of GenocideWatch’s promise and warning to Afrikaners: ‘don’t give up your guns…’

Dr. Stanton of Genocide Watch promised the Afrikaners that he would visit the U.S. Embassy and bring the issue to the attention of world leaders. However, he also urged them not to give up their guns and to continue resisting the communist “ideology” espoused by so many of the political and party leaders that now dominate the nation’s coercive government ­apparatus.

So far, efforts to garner the attention of the “international community” appear to have been largely unproductive. The Dutch Parliament, though, narrowly defeated a recent bill calling for the government of the Netherlands to investigate and help combat racist violence directed at Afrikaners in South Africa by offering expertise and judiciary support while helping to preserve threatened basic rights, such as freedom of the press.

  • Despite failing to pass, the effort was taken as a sign that world opinion may be changing, albeit slowly.

Activists call on European, USA governments to accept vulnerable white refugees from SA as a high priority:
Activists are also calling on European governments and the United States to immediately begin accepting especially vulnerable white refugees from South Africa as a high priority. There are less than five million whites left in the country, about 10 percent of South Africans, down from almost a quarter of the population decades ago.

Analysts say that giving them asylum may prove tough politically — partly because it could expose the myths of Nelson Mandela and his communist ANC being “heroic” so-called freedom fighters.

Even if it were possible, millions of white South Africans would refuse to leave the land of their forefathers anyway, at least at this point, knowing that if they left, the Afrikaner culture and language may disappear forever.

  • “Up to a million people have already emigrated, almost as many as left Lebanon during the civil war. However, mass emigration would mean the demise of our nation, together with our unique language, history, literature and culture,” Pro-Afrikaans Action Group (PRAAG) chief Dan Roodt told The New American.

“You must also remember that to most of the Western countries, we represent unwanted immigrants, despite being educated, law-abiding and Christian. Despite being persecuted, very few actually get political asylum as the mass media still portray South Africa as a model democracy.”

Roodt also wants an autonomous homeland in Southern Africa for his people

Like a significant subset of the Afrikaner minority, Roodt wants his people to have their own autonomous homeland in Southern Africa, a proposal that the ANC regime rejects out of hand. “Many of us want to stay and fight and turn the tables on this anachronistic left-wing, racist regime,” explained the controversial Afrikaner (-rights) advocate.

Other South Africans hope the international community will intervene to protect persecuted minority groups — either militarily if the downward spiral continues, or at least through sanctions and diplomatic pressure. More than a few sources who spoke to The New American said foreign action is a necessity: They view South Africa as a sort of “canary in the coal mine.”

The Rainbow Nation might be the first to go, but Western civilization, they say, will not be far behind.

Unsurprisingly, the establishment press has barely reported a word about the looming potential catastrophe in South Africa. However, there is hope: Activists say that if Americans get involved, even just helping to raise awareness, a bloodbath of apocalyptic proportions may well be averted.

It will not be easy to roll back the blood-red tide of genocide and communism in South Africa:

It will certainly not be easy to roll back the blood-red tide of communism and genocide in South Africa. The roots have been firmly planted, nurtured by Western governments and communist tyrants for decades. But for South Africans of all colors, and for humanity itself, activists insist that the battle must go on. It will.

Kroonstad station – before and after

KROONSTAD RAILWAY STATION TODAY – Jan and Martie Sempels took these heartbreaking pictures

Oct 24 2012 - The historic Boer-Republican Kroonstad railway station, dating from January 1892, was ravaged by a massive fire on January 24 2012 – however contrary to newspapers’claims  new photographs reveal that it was not totally “destroyed’.  Actually, most of its infrastructure remained intact and probably could be restored to its previous glory --  if the political will had existed to do so. KROONSTAD 7 RW STATION OCT242012 SEMPELS

TODAY: Kroonstad railway station, dating from 1892, as it looks today. Sixty passenger trains a day stopped there in 1955 yet now--  although it  is located at a crucial railway junction, it has been closed down and barred to all passenger-traffic after a mysterious fire in January this year.

Kroonstad had 70 trains a day stopping at its station in 1955:

Yet  Kroonstad, with its railway station now totally disfunctional, is still being described as ‘an important rail junction”. The first train steamed into Kroonstad on 20 February 1892. During 1955 the station received 70 trains every 24 hours, one train every 20 minutes.

KROONSTAD STEAM ENGINE DETERIORATION The town lies directly on top of the N1, and bypasses the town to the east. It is the second largest urban center in the Northern Free State, and an important railway junction on the main line from Cape Town to Johannesburg.

Kroonstad is historically important to Afrikaners and Boers:

During the Second Boer War, from 13 March to 11 May 1900, the town became the capital of the Orange Free State, and subsequently the site of a British concentration camp to accommodate Boer women and children.

Kroonstad was established in 1855 and was the first town founded after the independence of the independent Boer Republic of the Orange Free State. Kroonstad also is primarily Afrikaans-speaking and lies in the middle of the country’s grain-producing region.
