South Africa’s Ominous Message to Europe

By August Pointneuf

The ANC had everything when it came to power: It was gifted a fully functioning nation, which had a respectable income. It was carried on the shoulders of the world’s moral endorsement, with a surplus of extraordinary international good will. It was to be the “Rainbow Nation”, the trumpet triumphal of Black success and capability. It was to be the final eclipse of “white exploitation”, and the mould for the world of the future. It was set to justify the “racial integration” of all the nations of the world, and the symbolic success of “multiculturalism”. It proclaimed a final defeat of the stratification of unique societies, and had succeeded in destroying the boundaries of societal identity expressed by culture and race.

How could that be? The ANC had no track record, no hard evidence of capability or moral commitment. Indeed, without exception, all black governed precursor societies in Africa had failed as economic and social entities

A perception constructed.

The European construct of a future South Africa as a highly desirable and successful society was a perception created entirely by Europeans. It was created by those who wanted to believe. Europeans structured a delusion, fuelled by an intrinsic belief in the ultimate triumph of Black Africa. The assumption was that “Africans are suppressed peoples” who, once released from their oppressors could only blossom into a new spring.

How did it start, this belief that Black Africa would eventually grow, prosper and blossom?

A stage set by missionaries.

This expectation has been present for centuries, as shown by the zeal and extraordinary endeavours of the European missionaries. The missionaries’ belief had been that Africa was made up of nascent societies and all that was necessary to invigorate Africans was to feed the intrinsic capabilities, to teach counting, writing and language. They believed they could inculcate into their aspiring pupils (as they perceived them) those rich virtues which the Europeans had established over centuries to be the keystones of a workable, satisfying society.

The missionaries’ qualities reflected the source of their recruitment (Christian institutions). Although the overt theme may have been to convert to Christianity underlying this, and reflected by the establishment of thousands of schools, the aim was far broader. It was spoken aloud that the missionaries wanted to “civilise savages”. Read another way, they planned to replicate their own society.

Part of their motivation was probably to assure themselves that they too would be recognised as possessing Christian virtues.

The Parenting Imperative

What were the incentives that drove the missionaries (and colonialists) to attempt to convert alien people to be become “like themselves “?

The answer requires taking a further step back, and to acknowledge one of the powerful imperatives which direct human behaviour - the parental commitment to the development of the child, that all-pervasive contribution to the societal structure of the succeeding generation.

Humans have a constant, unrelenting and at times unflinchingly need to have their offspring grow up to be “just like themselves” (or an improved version of themselves). Whatever the inadequacies of the child, and however far that child might fall short of its sought-for destination as a wholesome member of future society the optimism of the parents will prevail supremely.

There are other entrenched behaviours, of course, such as charity, compassion and “fairness”. However it is when these inherent (and distinct behavioural mechanisms) directives become muddled, one with the other, that the human “social psyche” fails its possessors.

Given this powerful and all-prevailing predetermination to parent, the strongest likelihood must be that when the Europeans were confronted with societies which they viewed as socially juvenile, those parental emotions surged to the forefront.

The Europeans therefore, and uniquely, set about the parenting those whom they regarded as inferior on the assumption and hope that if they could exercise “good parenting’” the subject societies would become “is just like theirs”.

Many will confidently interject in support of civic proselytising of “undeveloped and poor” societies, saying “That is expected” or “That is just natural” or the rhetorical “How can anyone think otherwise?” Becoming more aggressive the assertions will become “That is heartless” or “If you do not believe in this (or that) you are deviant, or a monster, or execrable”.

Those with a smug moral superiority soon discover that they have a powerful weapon to force their beliefs on others, via yet another powerful inherent directive - the need of people to evade criticism and sustain social acceptance.

The prodding and emotive phrases listed above are, however, merely word shifts, synonyms for instinctive or inherent or intrinsic or intuitive. Said another way these self-righteous people are demonstrating (perhaps without recognising it) that their behaviour is not governed by reason, but is a fixed, instinctive response. Since there is no rationale, the behaviour of the sententious cannot take account of context or probable outcomes. Because it is narrowly blinkered with much room for unintended consequences, such rigid self-assurance is therefore highly dangerous.

Necessary Delusions

For aspirations, motivation, and tenacity to succeed, a favourable outcome must be assumed. It is the imagined outcome – when contradictory information is ignored, - which sustains most human affairs. Endeavours are wrapped in delusions. Humans cannot function without these delusions, be they delusions of immortality or the certainty that an intended outcome will be successful. If these are stripped away the psycho-personality collapses.

Politicisation of Missionary Zeal

The narrow aspirations of the missionaries broadened into the 20th and 21st centuries. and paternalism strengthened. In both metaphorically and literal senses as the cry went out “bring these alien people into our homes. They need encouragement, understanding, maturing, compassion. They need to be protected from criticism and from any reference to their racial background.” It became necessary to begin suppressing those foundational human instincts of self-preservation, demarcation of domain and the fear of alien intrusion.

In what then seemed to be a self–congratulating confirmation of their delusions, Europeans began to precipitously proffer awards to those Africans who seemed to bear out their faith of their own evangelism. Robert Mugabe, for example, was awarded The Africa Prize for Leadership for the Sustainable End of Hunger in 1988 with the comment that his agricultural programs "Pointed the way not only for Zimbabwe but for the entire African continent.”

Mandela was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize, and a plethora of other awards were made to Africans – often awarded so precipitously as to exsanguinate all value and status from what had previously been prestigious awards.

The Politician Supreme

Catastrophically, and simultaneous with what individuals were doing to “integrate” aliens into their own cultures by destroying sociological (and racial) barriers, European governments were gaining unparalleled, seemingly unlimited, power over their populations. From being gentlemen Civil Servants, politicians began to see themselves in a role of grandiosity. Those in governing authority began to evolve an autonomy of their own, which served their personal ambitions, and sustained their tenure. It became practice for governments to begin manipulating their society, and to progressively suppress human instincts when these interfered with their security of authority and economic status. These governments began to appease one another in what Solzhenitsyn described as “The United Governments of the World" They began to mutually gloat by displaying that they were non-racial, non-sectarian, and combined in reducing migration barriers.

The suppression of their populations increased too slowly for the people to realise how powerful was to be the strangling of their instinctive behaviours. The British government forced upon the population the cult of “non-racism” with a stronger propaganda than the Nazis would have dared to use with their cult of “non-Judaism”. To force the behaviour of their population into subservient complacency the British governments imposed a more severe and extensive legal infrastructure than the Nazis ever had. The British population was indoctrinated as to what it must think, and disciplined into what it could not say and how it must make value judgements. Expression of intuitive behaviour could be heavily and ruthlessly punished, notably where an instinctive response to the fear of an invading alien population spilled out.

When governments force onto people a behaviour which is contrary to their intuitive and highly sophisticated inherent patterns, that is tyranny. This may not be the dictionary definition, but it is a more tangible and qualitative measure of tyranny.

Delusions and deluding

Were the ambitions of the missionaries fulfilled, 15 years after the pomp and panoply of South African independence? Was the vision of the European exponents of “open house to all cultures” fulfilled? Were the arguments of those who advocated “give them a chance and they will melt into European culture seamlessly” justified? Has Black South Africa succeeded? Has Europe succeeded?

The European bitter-end protagonists of multi-culturism will say. “Yes. Some have” or “if not, this is just a matter of time, compassion, support, understanding” and advocate what is usually reserved for the mendicant or the child, further handouts of largesse. I have heard the same words spoken by parents whose wayward children are corrupt, manipulative, and extractive addicts. These failures of their children nevertheless still evoked in their parents that persisting, and instinctive delusion that all will come right eventually. They failed to see that the child was intrinsically flawed. They could not see their delusions. Instead those children not only eroded their parents’ lives but continued to gnaw destructively at a society which had not the reserves to continue to appease them indefinitely.

If we were to choose an “independent” South Africa as the design model for an ultra liberal society of the future, how should we measure the current moral strength of that nation? Surely the best we can do is to look for efficient and frugal governance and qualities of conscious care of society by those elected “democratically”? Surely we must assess the people who claim to be the most successful, the most evolved, those who believe that they are the most capable of demonstrating that black South Africa is successful. Are they?

Rather than distribute critical analysis over a range of variables, let us look at a single aspect of the behaviour of a selection of ANC politicians. An array of travel and other benefits of office are available to South African Parliamentarians. It would be expected that the availing of these implied a prudence and selectivity, with discrimination based on honesty. Have these “leaders” fulfilled the same expectations of honesty that the missionaries had hoped to inculcate into their prodigies?

How did these politicians, given the potential to cheat and exploit, reveal their anticipated morality and virtue?

What a sad tale of failed expectation. What a reflection on those who appoint ANC candidates for parliament.

The Black Power Propaganda industry

Should it be argued that politicians cannot be regarded as a representative, let us look instead at individuals who are or were expected to achieve their positions by merit and endeavour.

The National Police Commissioner should exemplify critical selection for dispassionate honesty and unswerving compliance with the law. The Western world acclaimed Jacob Selebi in this role, and as part of the mission to defer to the Black African capability, he was also appointed President of Interpol. In 1998 he received a Human Rights Award for International Service for Human Rights.

Currently Selebi is on trial, charged with many offences, including corruption and defeating the ends of Justice. In evidence, it is claimed inter alia, that he had revealed secret UK correspondence to international criminals.

As much as the delusional expectations of the Europeans about Africa’s potential were formulated and executed by Europeans, so a parallel industry of Black Propaganda contrives to capitalise and exploit the European delusions. The aim seems to have been to demonstrate that Black Africans could compete on equal terms with the European in achievement and creativity. Sadly most of the claims promoted were fabrications, calculated to deceive.

If the above examples remain unacceptable examples, let us look at a contemporary example from sport, in which the Black Africans’ capability is unquestioned. Castor Semenya won the 800 m at the world championship in Berlin in 2009. An earlier commentary aimed at putting the subsequent furore into objective context.

However ANC high-rankers, which include the infamous Winnie Mandela and Parliamentary Ministers, instead of recognising that errors, misjudgement, and deception had occurred and that it would be appropriately prudent to withdraw and apologise to the world at large, chose to go into combat against the world in an even more astonishing ranting against Europeans and their “racism”. A desperate attempt to create a delusion of African competence via Black Power propaganda.

The Message

Europe, at least in the form of political assertions, wants its successful and often overcrowded populations to dilute their creative capacity with counter-cultural immigrants from failed nations.

European, look now and carefully at Africa if you wish to know your future, should the politicians’ aims be allowed to succeed.

Buks van Rensburg

In the popular mind decadence is the state into which the once omnipotent Roman Empire fell after centuries of dominating the Ancient World. The Roman Republic was founded in 509 BC, it flourished for centuries, dominating the Mediterranean, reached the status of Empire in 27 BC after conquest of other lands, and split into the Western and Byzantine Roman Empires in the Fourth century. The Western Empire finally became decadent and went into decline in the sixth century. The Byzantine Empire survived its Western counterpart by almost a thousand years, falling only to the Ottoman Turks in 1453.

The Roman Empire had dramatic effects on subsequent human history. Christianity became a dominant religion after the Emperor Theodosius I suppressed paganism and established the Creed of the Council of Nicaea in 325 as the norm for Christians. Roman Law, Christianity, and the methods of Roman civil engineering are still with us. Roman military precision became the standard for historical European and American armies marching in neat lines on parade, and this has now spread to armies all over the earth. Perhaps even the notions of military ranks and hierarchy can be traced back to the Romans, or has been passed to us from the Greeks by means of the Roman Empire.

Given all this, it must have been a surprising idea, at the time, that an Empire as almighty as the Roman Empire, and which lasted as long, could go into fatal decline and eventually disappear. "The decline and fall of the Roman Empire" is a much researched topic, and Gibbon wrote a six-volume work by that name. It is generally acknowledged that the fall of the Western Roman Empire, after the invasions of Barbarians from northern Europe, had dramatic consequences for Western Europe - the period of artistic, economic, civil and engineering decline resulted in the Dark Ages or Medieval Times, and this period would take hold of Western Europe for a millennium. In this time Europeans suffered from a lack of resources, superstition, short life spans, disease and poverty. It was only the advent of the Renaissance that finally brought relief to Western Europe, and the subsequent history showed that Western Europe climbed out of the Medieval period to become a potent part of the world and the world economy, dominating other areas, and forming Empires which would last for 200 years or more.

In the popular mind the decadence of the Roman Empire conjures up images of a high society that fell into dysfunction. Paintings and other depictions of decadence invariably focus on scenes of gluttony and depraved sexual behaviour, orgies and alcohol abuse. For example, the painting Romans of the Decadence by Thomas Couture portrays an orgy in full swing while shocked philosophers are witnessing scenes of gluttony and bare breasts.

There is a recent sense that the modern West has become decadent in the same manner as Rome, and charges of decadence may appear in the Western press. On the cover of a recent issue of the British magazine The Spectator a headline states that "[Muslims] are right about us", and the magazine expands on this in an article reporting that some British members of parliament agree with the apparent charge by Muslims that British society, and by extension the West, is decadent (and in this sense, sexually and morally so). In these interpretations of decadence it is meant that individuals are decadent or that individuals exhibit decadence in their ethical or moral behaviour and choices. Thus, decadence is imagined to be a state of individuals, rather than a state of a society at large.

This view is mostly wrong. The sexual depravity and gluttony we take for decadence are in fact not what decadence is. Rather, decadence is the state of a society in decline. Its citizens' behaviour is a symptom of decadence rather than decadence itself. The Merriam-Webster Online Dictionary defines decadence to be "a period of decline" of a society, and it cross-references decadence to "decay", "decline" or "corruption", and suggests "deterioration" as a possible synonym. In the Bosman, Van der Merwe, and Hiemstra Tweetalige woordeboek, decadence is translated into Afrikaans as "onder andere as verval, agteruitgang [van 'n samelewing]".

The Encyclopedia Britannica states that decadence "is a period of decline or deterioration of art or literature that follows an era of great achievement". This requires first that a society becomes "great" before it can be decadent. In his book Decadent Societies (North Point Press, San Francisco, 1983), Robert M. Adams examines as examples of decadent societies: the Eastern and Western Roman empires, the ancien regime of 18th century France, the Romanovs of pre-Communist Russia, and the British Empire. He further examines the current American Empire for decadence, and also comments on the role of weak leadership in societies at risk of decadence.

Sober thought would suggest that decadence is the failure of a ruling class that would not, or cannot, identify the risks and dangers facing their society. It is a shortcoming in the intellectual classes in a society, and not of its ordinary citizens. Decadence could come about when intellectual or ruling classes fall out of love and turn their backs on the citizens of the society which produced them. Such an intellectual or ruling class will fail to provide their citizens with a common purpose or a national myth. The result is a loss of faith and confidence of the citizens in their rulers and myths, and they escape in the pursuit of nihilistic pleasure, or they may dissociate from their community to seek their fortunes elsewhere. The symptoms of decadence, including corrupt behaviour, disreputable attitudes, and the destruction of a common purpose that binds a society together, flows from the decadence of the intellectual classes, and not from the citizens themselves. Ordinary members of a decadent society instinctively understand that they have been forsaken by their elite, and this challenges their loyalty and undermines their ethics and morality.

It is with all this in mind that one should approach contemporary Afrikaner society. This topic is far too large for an essay such as this one, and I will necessarily restrict my comments to a few observations. There is a sense in some circles that Afrikaners have lost their way. At least one Afrikaner author, Dan Roodt, has lamented the decadence of Afrikaners in several of his essays. For example, as long ago as 14 December 2003, he commented in his essay Ons Waardekrisis that "koerante vol skandale [is] oor die gedrag van Afrikaners", that "Afrikaners vandag nie meer weet wat die verskil tussen reg en verkeerd is nie", en that Afrikaners "is besig om af te sak na die laagste gemene deler toe, en [maak] die gebruike van die bloedige en amorele Suid-Afrika ons eie ...". He pleads for new [Afrikaner] leaderskip to stem this decadence and to catalize an Afrikaner renewal. For his efforts he was eventually fired as a columnist at Rapport, a main-stream Afrikaner Sunday paper. Talk of an Afrikaner renewal, or of an Afrikaner ethnic cohesiveness, or of the dangers of the ANC's agenda, proved too strong for the editors of Rapport. Afrikaner intellectuals, in the form of opinion makers at a newspaper, apparently quell such talk, as it might upset the ANC driven contemporary South African ethos. Let us therefore rather have peace than having ethnic Afrikaners.

It is without question the case that Afrikaners face severe challenges in the ANC's South Africa. Individually they are under assault by ANC policies such as Black Economic Empowerment (BEE) and Affirmative Action (AA). These policies are not mildly applied as in other Western countries, but are draconian in their scope, and are based on the idea of a wealth transfer from white to black, rather than the generation of new wealth to empower black South Africans which were sidelined by apartheid. Afrikaners further face the complete undermining of their institutions, from primary and secondary schools, universities and businesses (such as the defunct Volkskas, a bank built from the pennies of savings that small and impoveriched Afrikaner kids brought to school in the 1920's and 30's). Afrikaner farmers face land reform and invasion, sometimes apparently driven by the agendas of foreign NGO's or by ANC warlords, and also suffer discriminatory practices at the Land Bank and other government-related institutions which normally have a mandate for assisting farmers.

These issues would not have been so serious were it not for the fact that some of the Afrikaner elite either defend the application of these policies, or may even be actively involved in their application. Prominent Afrikaner businessman are known to implement BEE and AA with gusto, doing great harm to the economic and social well-being of Afrikaners in mid- and lower-level positions, and stories of Afrikaners being forced to train their own replacements before they are retrenched can easily be found. Young Afrikaners may find themselves stranded with no access to scholarships or entry-level positions. BEE transactions have created a new superclass of rich blacks, at the cost of thousands of Afrikaners who have invested their savings in the stock market, only to see it squandered on such transactions, apparently driven simply by a desire to please the ANC, and with at best a questionable return in the long run. University presidents of previously Afrikaans-medium universities have apparently either not opposed the introduction of English instruction, or have actively colluded with the ANC government to undermine the Afrikaans character of their institutions. In other words, the Afrikaner elite has apparently decided against Afrikaners, or they are unable to decide what is in fact in the best long-term interest of Afrikaners.

There was at some point in the past a well-defined Afrikaner community, with an ethos and culture curiously its own. This community existed well before the Anglo-Boer War, and it was defined by its common ethnicity and by a common purpose. Its leadership did make serious errors, but it was neither decadent nor corrupt, and Afrikaners survived many crises, including war and subsequent poverty, and fought tenaciously for existence against their historical enemies, the English and the Zulu. In 1910 this community was made part of South Africa, and while it would apparently grew in influence and size for another 50 years, it would eventually be undermined by demographics, weak leadership, and now apparently finally by creolization, emigration, and a new decadent ruling class in the post-apartheid years.

Decadence, as I argued above, is a failure of the intellectual class; an inability or a refusal to recognize the evident challenges and truths facing an ethnic group. Afrikaner artists and intellectuals may begin to escape their decadence by acknowledging same basic facts. Perhaps the most important is the fact that the ANC is intensely anti-Afrikaans. Accepting this will not achieve much, but it would at least be intellectually honest, and as such will set a better foundation for a response. By "anti-Afrikaans" I do not mean to anthropomorphize the ANC. The ANC is a collection of individuals, and I mean that in their collective decision-making they act in a manner which is detrimental to Afrikaners - a large fraction of the ANC leadership and policy makers have a knee-jerk anti-Afrikaner response on almost all issues.

Examples of the confusion of Afrikaner intellectuals are easily found. A simple survey of recent publications provides the following examples: In a 17 August 2005 editorial Die Burger states that it is "die ANC vandeesweek 'n spesiale verklaring uitgereik het waarin Afrikaans gelukgewens word met sy 130 jaar van bestaan …". That the ANC is using statements such as these in a cynical attempt to pacify Afrikaners on the language issue has apparently not quite registered with the editors of Die Burger. Nelson Mandela is almost universally revered by Afrikaner commentators. It is indeed true that his personal intervention and charisma avoided a civil war in South Africa, but it is also a fact that the ANC, under his leadership, negotiated a new South African constitution which apparently implies the extinction of Afrikaners and the formation of a "New South African". An honest and frank evaluation would indicate that at best, Nelson Mandela should be regarded with mixed feelings by Afrikaners. Lastly, leaders of the Afrikaner community realize that many skilled Afrikaners are locked out by BEE and AA from the economy, and they have now offered to compile a register of such people. This is a very lame reaction. In a normal situation, the leaders of an ethnic group would have expressed outrage at the discrimination, but then, these are decadent and not normal times.

The prize-winning journalist Max Du Preez has spent a lifetime documenting and recording the experiences of victims of apartheid laws. He has founded an anti-apartheid newspaper, was a researcher and writer for the Apartheid Museum, was an anchor at the new ANC-controlled SABC, and he has risked his life not once as a journalist reporting on police death squads, on riots in Soweto, and on the general decadence of the apartheid regime's senior ministers. As an Afrikaner, one would have expected Du Preez to file reports on the ANC's instinctive and deep-seated anti-Afrikaner streak. But it is difficult to find such sentiments in his contributions. In his writings there are but scant mentioning of the plague of murders on Afrikaner farmers since 1994, apparently nothing on the new emergent underclass of poor Afrikaners, and he evidently sees little or no problem with the destruction of Afrikaner institutions by the ANC ruling class.

Du Preez is not alone in this; his choice of issues and attitudes are universally common in Afrikaner opinion makers all over South Africa, including newspaper editors and even political figures. It appears that the story of Afrikaners in post-1994 South Africa is not a story worth filing, and that even Afrikaner opinion makers cannot look with compassion on the sufferance and failings of their own ethnic group. The post-1994 Afrikaner experience is a rich source of captivating stories. Stories of crime and discrimination abound. One captivating story involves a young farmer who survived an attack at the hands of two black assailants by playing dead after being shot three times. A fluent speaker of Sotho, he addressed his assailants in Sotho while they were beating him. They responded by ordering him to speak Afrikaans during his beating. This, unfortunately, is also the Afrikaner experience since 1994, unrecorded and ignored by the Afrikaner elite. There is also a tendency in the mainstream Afrikaans press to condemn Afrikaners who dare speak out against crime or discrimination against Afrikaners. The destruction of Afrikaner institutions and the subsequent confidence crisis among Afrikaners is a potent political story that should be recorded and told.

Average Afrikaners are not blind to all of this. They understand instinctively that elite Afrikaners such as Du Preez have an apparent aversion to them, and that they cannot expect anyone to act in their interest in response to pressures from the ANC. When Du Preez laments in a recent column the large-scale emigration of tens of thousands of Afrikaners from South Africa in the last couple of years, he argues that this and other factors may imply the eventual extinction of Afrikaners. Crime and affirmative action are given as reasons for emigration.

Du Preez and many other prominent Afrikaner commentators ostensibly fail to understand the underlying motive for emigration. Emigration is in particular due to the failure of Afrikaner intellectuals to provide Afrikaners with a vision for the future. That is, a failure to provide a set of arguments, myths and institutions that constitute a model for the continued existence of Afrikaners in South Africa. Afrikaners are acutely aware that the new order in South Africa may phase out Afrikaner culture and the Afrikaans language from both the private and public sectors through transformation and integration. Afrikaners have no province or haven like Québec for Francophone Canadians. The common man is no fool, and he knows that in other societies organized as in post-1994 South Africa minority cultures and languages have failed to thrive, and have ultimately become extinct. Afrikaans will not escape this fate; as it is forced out of South African institutions, so it will disappear from the kitchens of that country as well.

This leaves Afrikaners with an impossible choice: stay in South Africa and anglicize, or emigrate to Australia, and anglicize. In neither country is there an Afrikaner future. This is not even a fair choice. In Australia there is little crime and no affirmative action imposed on Afrikaners. Afrikaners emigrated in the 1830's from the Cape Colony during the Great Trek to escape British domination. Perhaps the current large-scale migration is the Last Trek which will close the book on centuries of Afrikaners, and in a thousand years all of Afrikaner experience will have been reduced to a footnote.

While Du Preez does lament in his recent essay Changing Ideas of Afrikaner/White Identity (published on the LitNet website) the fact that Afrikaners are not accepted as African by the new Black elite, he appears generally to be incapable of opposing the ANC rulers' agenda. A self-styled radical who fought against apartheid, Du Preez still appears to be psychologically incapable of understanding that his old comrades are now his enemies, bent on destroying the institutions and cohesion of his ethnic group (or perhaps he does not believe that Afrikaners should exhibit ethnic cohesion, unlike Jews or Scots, for example). As a self-styled radical, he apparently cannot stand radicalism when he encounters it in someone like Dan Roodt. Instead, his behaviour towards Roodt is reminiscent of the behaviour of apartheid ministers to Du Preez, calling him names and attempting to push him to the fringes of mainstream thought by means of boycotts and explicit name-calling on main-stream websites.

The obsession of Max du Preez, Koos Kombuis, and other Afrikaner opinion-makers with Dan Roodt is fascinating. Roodt seems to be driving the debate, since they are constantly reacting to his ideas and statements. Whatever opinion one has about Roodt, it is obvious that he has at the very least provided an intellectual and radical alternative to the lame sentiments coming out of Afrikaans newspapers and from Afrikaner intellectuals since 1994. In this respect he has done Afrikaners a tremendous favour.

The longer-term future of South Africa remains unsure. It may be the case that we are witnessing the birth of a New South African, an Anglophone creature who will be a dominant regional and global force. On the other hand, South Africa may fail in the same way that Zimbabwe has failed. In the first instance Afrikaners will be assimilated and will disappear, and in the second case Afrikaners will go under with South Africa. In both cases they will be on the losing side of history. But this story must still be written.

Zimbabwe suffers without White Israelite rule

Re: Zimbabwe inflation hits 11,200,000 percent

Once considered the breadbasket of Africa, Zimbabwe has been in the throes of an economic meltdown ever since the country embarked on a chaotic land reform program that has decimated commercial agriculture.


White-Israelite managed Rhodesia was the breadbasket of Africa, but now under atrocious Black misrule, with their racist attacks against White Israelite farmers who worked the land and blessed everybody (why does the media fail to focus on this racial issue?), Zimbabwe is in ruins.

Sold-out South Africa is quickly reverting to its primitive state (due to lack of White Israelite leadership), ANC changes for the worse, and stupid Americans prepare to elect another Black Marxist to office, ignorant and indifferent to the real world and history lessons, having been Obamatized, falling under delusions of Obama's grandeur, easy prey to PC propaganda as White Rhodesians and White South Africans proved to be and now suffer horribly for it.

Africa is not for sissies

Anonymous has left a new comment on the post "Mandela - The Legend and the Legacy. Part 2":

hi

thank you for a very good read.I am a south african and it is nice to see someone else understanding it like i do because i was starting to think i was going mad. the problem is that because of all the past and present problems south Africa faces we ( White - South Africans) can no longer pack up and leave as many of us would like. no one will have us and because we are not "at war" we cannot even become refugees. in the last year Ive been mugged twice, my handbag was stolen on 2 separate occasions as well, and i am one of the lucky ones.
i would advise anyone thinking of coming here for the 2010 world cup to prepare mentally for it beforehand. don't be surprised if u get mugged, your room or is broken into, your luggage is stolen or you become involved in a accident because these happen on a daily basis. This is a beautiful country with lots of promise and potential, but shamefully this is all being washed down the drain. the ruling president of the ANC is currently up on fraud and corruption cases, he has 12 wives, and he slept with a woman with aids and explained he took a shower after to prevent getting aids himself. now i ask you if this is our next president, what type of a role model is he to the youth and what message does he send out to the rest of the world?Sadly things here will get much worst before they get any better. But as they say: "Africa is not for sissies"
thank you again

South Africa Ruled By Barbarians, America Next?

South Africa Ruled By Barbarians, America Next?

I received this disturbing email from a gentleman in South Africa that sheds light on their dark situation:

8/21-08

Dear David,

WOW! Thanks for putting the unsaid truth into words........so many South Africans have been brainwashed into believing that things are going to get better........when, I am not sure. The decline here is simply history repeating itself. I was also very interested in the 2-part article written by Sarah Maid of Albion. Very accurate. I was horrified last week to discover that my daughter who is 10 years old and in Gr4, has to learn about people like Mandela, Lillian Ngoyi and Lesley Ann Foster (all ANC activists) in Social Sciences. These people, together with Gandhi, are the examples used to portray human rights leaders to our children.

In this book (Social Science for Grade 4 - Oxford Press) Mandela is said to be "The prisoner who changed South Africa". I will quote one or two lines from the book:

"The police were very violent and killed and tortured many protesters."

"The ANC said: The time comes in the life of any nation when there remains only two choices: submit or fight. That time has now come to South Africa. We have no choice but to hit back by all means within our power in defence of our people, our future and our freedom.:

One of the "Four characteristics of leaders" mentioned in the book:

* Leaders are soldiers when they: - know when they need to take control and tell people what to do.

- make sure people stay true to their principles"

I ask you........why do these youngsters have to be brainwashed and forced to learn this garbage!?! It is blatant terrorism and intimidation of young minds!

Keep up your outstanding research and let the world know what is going on here..........no-one here actually has the balls to do it!!

D

After asking permission to post this (folks are free to post comments here, if they please), he replied:

Hi David

Thanks for your reply. You are welcome to post it. I have no problem with that. So many people feel the way I do, but have seemingly given up voicing their opinion. It is frightening what is actually happening here and so few people know the truth. I was sent a very disturbing and graphic email about a young black toddler who had been murdered. His head was lying on the ground of a mud hut, his torso in a silver dish and he had be disemboweled. Horrific to say the least! I have deleted it, but should I come across it again, I will send it through to you. We are living in the dark ages, being ruled by a bunch of savage barbarians.

William Wallace has left a new comment on the post "Mandela - The Legend and the Legacy. Part 2":

A brief note:

1. thanks for telling the truth about mandela - simply a communist terrorist like Che Guevara who is now idolised - this syndrome has brought misery to millions who would be better off under competent management/governance
2. Africa has a clear pattern and track record of nation destroying and chasing whites out - so after each handover, the writing is broadly on the wall - whites should pack up and disinvest and take as much with them as they can - not leaving by haste but having a careful exit strategy. Black politicians will always play the race card and stir up race and class warfare at election time, whites will always be 2nd class citizens in Africa and blacks will always envy white success. Blacks will broadly remain more brutal due to a culture and heritage of darkness. Democracy is the worst form of govt and in Africa a sure recipe for disaster.
3. be thankful for the good old days - the old SA - pre-UN and pre-communist atheist society where vice was outlawed and people lived in a proud Christian country and enjoyed a very good balanced life with faith, family, sports, education, ETC Be proud to be a South African and honour the true old flag (of the republic) but disregard the new ugly flag which represents a takeover by communist terrorists and immoral idiots. Every new calamity caused by the ANC is a tribute to the competence and effectiveness of the Nationalist/apartheid government - hoora for the boers and shame on the ANC idiots.
4. people will debate until the cows come home about SA and Africa - but we all know where it's heading...now that it is under black management...it's a waste of time to debate the current or future state of Africa - clearly it has regressed as a continent since being handed over to black management. Therefore - I repeat 1-3 above and say amen!

for future reference - we all need to be more vigilant and not taking our blessings for granted - people were brainwashed by the mass media into white guilt, into focusing on the hole instead of the donut, into handing over a great country to a prison gang of total idiots - the joke is on us. How could we be so naive as to expect anything but a disaster?! - by giving people with kindergarten mindsets and criminal natures the levers of power??!!!

GENOCIDE BEING COMMITTED AGAINST SOUTH AFRICAN WHITES
Is it not very strange how the whole world is ignoring the apparent Genocide being committed against the white people in South Africa?

Why Rhodesia is in Ruins
So WHY did you not explain to your audience the "real truth" that Rhodesia DIED the day it succumbed to pressure from the world and gave up its ISRAELITE government to primitive African mob rule?

A Warning for America from South Africa
It is already too late for South Africa, but not for America if enough people strengthen their spine and take on the race terrorists, the armies of the "politically correct" and, most dangerous of all, the craven politicians who believe "compassionate conservatism" will buy them a few more votes, a few more days of peace.

Aid for Africa?
Why, after all these years, are so many countries in Africa still dependent upon Western aid? Has such aid truly helped the situation or encouraged them to let others do for them what they won't do for themselves?

Where angels fear to tread
My world changed three years ago, on my daughter’s 7th birthday. My brother and his family joined us for a celebratory barbeque on our farm in a remote rural area in the Gauteng Province. A distress call came from an elderly lady living on a neighbouring farm.

How Evil was Apartheid?
How does one measure evil? Is there such a thing as a universal 'index' according to which deeds of evil can be judged? If we, for example, take the Universal Declaration of Human Rights as the final arbiter of what is evil and what is not, how could we then judge Zimbabwe as being more evil than, for example, China and Saudi Arabia – two countries enjoying marvelous ties with the West despite their abysmal human rights records.

Fellowship with Besieged White South Africans
I care for South Africans, Israelis, and Americans but it's horrifying to see our white Israelite peoples are being sold out (we often get the leaders we deserve) and/or just go like sheep to the slaughter or worry about being called "racist" more than our survival. Truly our nations are under a CURSE for our disobedience and the only way to reverse the curse is to REPENT. Will we? God knows.

South Africa under Black Misrule to Revise History
I noticed that Thabo Mbeki said in a speech earlier this week, that Geographical as well as Place Names had to change throughout the country. He particularly mentioned names in the Eastern Cape that show that the Boers were the first people in the western half of this province.

************************

And ignorant and naive Americans want to vote Obama into power, a Black Supremacist who was indoctrinated by Black racist preacher Jeremiah Wright for over 20 years and only recently distanced himself for political purposes? Because Obama has "learned to talk to White people"? Because Obama has learned how to pull the wool over their eyes! Useful idiots, a danger to themselves and others.

Read why...
It's A Sin To Vote For Obama!

There Goes The Nation
The day of reckoning has come for America. We have DESTROYED South Africa and Rhodesia and pressured them to abandon their Israelite nation and turn it over to the most primitive of people. Now the whites FLEE for their lives from those nations and under primitive African "democracy" those nations are no longer the productive nations of Africa.

Obama lies, America dies
Shamefully, we rarely hear such an honest appraisal of South Africa's deteriorating situation in the United States. If we did, perhaps the stark reality check of the much vaunted "New South Africa" would dim the luster of Obama's lies about "change" (as if his Black Liberation Theology would bring about a change for the better when logic and history testify otherwise)...
Children Are Their Oppressors

The Curse of Jeremiah Wrights
Al Sharpton, Barack Obama, Louis Farrakhan, Jesse Jackson and others all represent the curse of reverse discrimination, the tail wagging the dog, the animals running the farm, the serious consequences for White Israelite disobedience to God (Deuteronomy 28:43).

President Barack Obama sound good to you?
Sounds good for Africa, Asia or some Arab country - but not for the United States of America. I'm not some silly woman all googley-eyed over Barack Hussein Obama (sounds like Osama, doesn't it?) or some self-hating or misguided white person who feels I must vote for the black man to prove to the racist PC masters I'm not racist.

South Africa Robbed By Fear

"In times of universal deceit, telling the truth will be a revolutionary act." George Orwell, 1984

WHY I'M FLEEING SOUTH AFRICA
by Anne Paton (widow of Alan Paton)
(London Sunday Times)

I am leaving South Africa. I have lived here for 35 years, and I shall leave with anguish. My home and my friends are here, but I am terrified.

I know I shall be in trouble for saying so, because I am the widow of Alan Paton. Fifty years ago he wrote Cry, The Beloved Country. He was an unknown schoolmaster and it was his first book, but it became a bestseller overnight. It was eventually translated into more than 20 languages and became a set book in schools all over the world. It has sold more than 15
million copies and still sells 100,000 copies a year.

As a result of the startling success of this book, my husband became famous for his impassioned speeches and writings, which brought to the notice of the world the suffering of the black man under apartheid.

He campaigned for Nelson Mandela's release from prison and he worked all his life for black majority rule. He was incredibly hopeful about the new South Africa that would follow the end of apartheid, but he died in 1988, aged 85. I was so sorry he did not witness the euphoria and love at the time of the election in 1994. But I am glad he is not alive now. He would have been so distressed to see what has happened to his beloved country.

I love this country with a passion, but I cannot live here any more. I can no longer live slung about with panic buttons and gear locks. I am tired of driving with my car windows closed and the doors locked, tired of being afraid of stopping at red lights. I am tired of being constantly on the alert, having that sudden frisson of fear at the sight of a shadow by the gate, of a group of youths approaching - although nine times out of 10 they are innocent of harmful intent. Such is the suspicion that dogs us all.

Among my friends and the friends of my friends, I know of nine people who have been murdered in the past four years. An old friend, an elderly lady, was raped and murdered by someone who broke into her home for no reason at all; another was shot at a garage.

We have a saying, "Don't fire the gardener", because of the belief that it is so often an inside job - the gardener who comes back and does you in.

All this may sound like paranoia, but it is not without reason. I have been hijacked, mugged and terrorised. A few years ago my car was taken from me at gunpoint. I was forced into the passenger seat. I sat there frozen. But just as one man jumped into the back and the other fumbled with the starter I opened the door and ran away. To this day I do not know how I did this. But I got away, still clutching my handbag.

On May 1 this year I was mugged in my home at three in the afternoon. I used to live in a community of big houses with big grounds in the countryside. It's still beautiful and green, but the big houses have been knocked down and people have moved into fenced complexes like the one in which I now live. Mine is in the suburbs of Durban, but they're springing up everywhere.

That afternoon I came home and omitted to close the security door. I went upstairs to lie down. After a while I thought I'd heard a noise, perhaps a bird or something. Without a qualm I got up and went to the landing; outside was a man. I screamed and two other men appeared. I was seized by the throat and almost throttled; I could feel myself losing consciousness. My mouth was bound with Sellotape and I was threatened with my own knife (Girl Guide issue from long ago) and told: "If you make a sound, you die." My hands were tied tightly behind my back and I was thrown into the guest room and the door was shut. They took all the electronic equipment they could find, except the computer. They also, of course, took the car.

A few weeks later my new car was locked up in my fenced carport when I was woken by its alarm in the early hours of the morning. The thieves had removed the radio, having cut through the padlocks in order to bypass the electric control on the gates.

The last straw came a few weeks ago, shortly before my 71st birthday. I returned home in the middle of the afternoon and walked into my sitting room. Outside the window two men were breaking in. I retreated to the hall and pressed the panic alarm. This time I had shut the front door on entering. By now I had become more cautious. Yet one of the men ran around the house, jumped over the fence and tried to batter down the front door. Meanwhile, his accomplice was breaking my sitting- room window with a hammer. This took place while the sirens were shrieking, which was the frightening part. They kept coming, in broad daylight, while the alarm was going. They knew that there had to be a time lag of a few minutes before help arrived - enough time to dash off with the television and video recorder. In fact, the front-door assailant was caught and taken off to the cells.

Recently I telephoned to ask the magistrate when I would be called as a witness. She told me she had let him off for lack of evidence. She said that banging on my door was not an offence, and how could I prove that his intent was hostile?

I have been careless in the past - razor wire and electric gates give one a feeling of security. Or at least, they did. But I am careless no longer.

No fence - be it electric or not - no wall, no razor wire is really a deterrent to the determined intruder. Now my alarm is on all the time and my panic button hung round my neck. While some people say I have been unlucky, others say: "You are lucky not to have been raped or murdered." What kind of a society is this where one is considered "lucky" not to have been raped or murdered - yet?

A character in Cry, The Beloved Country says: "I have one great fear in my heart, that one day when they are turned to loving they will find we are turned to hating." And so it has come to pass. There is now more racial tension in this country than I have ever known.

But it is not just about black-on-white crime. It is about general lawlessness. Black people suffer more than the whites. They do not have access to private security firms, and there are no police stations near them in the townships and rural areas. They are the victims of most of the hijackings, rapes and murders. They cannot run away like the whites, who are streaming out of this country in their thousands.

President Mandela has referred to us who leave as "cowards" and says the country can do without us. So be it. But it takes a great deal of courage to uproot and start again. We are leaving because crime is rampaging through the land. The evils that beset this country now are blamed on the legacy of apartheid. One of the worst legacies of that time is that of the Bantu Education Act, which deliberately gave black people an inferior education.

The situation is exacerbated by the fact that criminals know that their chances of being caught are negligible; and if they are caught they will be free almost at once. So what is the answer? The government needs to get its priorities right. We need a powerful, well-trained and well-equipped police force.

Recently there was a robbery at a shopping centre in the afternoon. A call to the police station elicited the reply: "We have no transport." "Just walk then," said the caller; the police station is about a two-minute sprint from the shop in question. "We have no transport," came the reply again. Nobody arrived.

There is a quote from my husband's book: "Cry, the beloved country, for the unborn child that is the inheritor of our fear. Let him not love the earth too deeply. Let him not laugh too gladly when the water runs through his fingers, nor stand too silent when the setting sun makes red the veld with fire. Let him not be too moved when the birds of his land are singing, nor give too much of his heart to a mountain or a valley. For fear will rob him of all if he gives too much."

What has changed in half a century? A lot of people who were convinced that everything would be all right are disillusioned, though they don't want to admit it.

The government has many excellent schemes for improving the lot of the black man, who has been disadvantaged for so long. A great deal of money is spent in this direction. However, nothing can succeed while people live in such fear. Last week, about 10km from my home, an old couple were taken out and murdered in the garden. The wife had only one leg and was in a
wheelchair. Yet they were stabbed and strangled - for very little money. They were the second old couple to be killed last week. It goes on and on, all the time; we have become a killing society.

As I prepare to return to England, a young man asked me the other day, in all innocence, if things were more peaceful there. "You see," he said, "I know of no other way of life than this. I cannot imagine anything different." What a tragic statement on the beloved country today. 

"Because the white man has power, we too want power," says Msimangu. "But when a black man gets power, when he gets money, he is a great man if he is not corrupted. I have seen it often. He seeks power and money to put right what is wrong, and when he gets them, why, he enjoys the power and the money. Now he can gratify his lusts, now he can arrange ways to get white 
man's liquor. I see only one hope for our country, and that is when white men and black men, desiring neither power nor money, but desiring only the good of their country, come together to work for it.

I have one great fear in my heart, that one day when they are turned to loving, they will find we are turned to hating.

A Warning for America from South Africa

How Evil was Apartheid?

Mandela - The Legend and the Legacy

Mandela - The Legend and the Legacy. Part 2

Mandela - The Legend and the Legacy

It is often said that one man's terrorist is another man's freedom fighter, however, this usually means that the other man has been less than fastidious in his choice of hero, or that the “freedom fighter” in question was on the crowd pleasing side.

On the 27th of June, London's Hyde Park played host to a concert in honour of Nelson Mandela's 90th birthday and as expected it received wall to wall coverage from a star struck and worshipping media, who continue to laud Mandela as one of the greatest, or indeed the greatest, heroes of our time.

The beaming old man appeared on stage in one of his trademark multi-coloured shirts and cheerily acknowledge the cheers of the adoring crowd, most of whom have been taught to believe in his sainthood since their first days in primary school, which, for many of them, will have occurred around the same time their hero walked free from Robben Island.

The unquestioning belief in Mandela's universally admired saintliness was again on display in the gushing media coverage and by the unending line of politicians and dignitaries from presidents to Prime ministers who queued up to genuflect before him and sing his praises. It is a brave politician or journalist who would dare to question the godliness of this legend and consummate showman, and hence no such questions were raised, nor were his much vaunted “achievements” subjected to any objective scrutiny.

No matter how many speeches are given or how many news articles are written, it will be a long time if ever before the truth about Mandela is told.

In fact the truth about Mandela is so hidden in mythology and misinformation that most know nothing about him prior to Robben island, and those who do tend to exercise a form of self censorship, designed to bolster the myth whilst consigning uncomfortable facts into the mists of history.

For most people all they know about Mandela, prior to his release in 1990, was that he had spent 27 years in prison and was considered by many on the left at the time (and almost everyone now) to be a political prisoner. However, Mandela was no Aung San Suu Kyi, he was not an innocent, democratically elected leader, imprisoned by an authoritarian government.

Mandela was the terrorist leader of a violent terrorist organisation, the ANC (African National Congress) which was responsible for many thousands of, mostly black, deaths. The ANC's blood spattered history is frequently ignored, but reminders occasionally pop up in the most embarrassing places, indeed as recently as this month the names of Nelson Mandela and most of the ANC remained on the US government's terrorist watch list along with al-Queda, Hezbollah and the Tamil Tigers. Of course the forces of political correctness are rushing to amend that embarrassing reminder from the past. However, Mandela's name was not on that list by mistake, he was there because of his Murderous past.

Before I am accused of calumny, it should be noted that Mandela does not seek to hide his past, in his autobiography “the long walk to Freedom” he casually admits “signing off” the 1983 Church Street bombing carried out by the ANC and killing 19 innocent people whilst injuring another 200.

It is true that Mandela approved that massacre and other ANC killings from his prison cell, and there is no evidence that he personally killed anyone but the same could be said about Stalin or Hitler, and the violent history of the ANC, the organisation he led is not in question.

According to the Human Rights Commission it is estimated that during the Apartheid period some 21,000 people were killed, however both the UN Crimes against Humanity commission and South Africa's own Truth and Reconciliation Commission are in agreement that in those 43 years the South African Security forces killed a total of 518 people. The rest, (some 92%) were accounted for by Africans killing Africans, many by means of the notorious and gruesome practice of necklacing whereby a car tyre full of petrol is placed around a victim's neck and set alight. This particularly cruel form of execution was frequently carried out at the behest of the ANC with the enthusiastic support of Mandela's demonic wife Winnie.

The brutal reappearance of the deadly necklace in recent weeks is something I shall reluctantly focus upon later.

Given that so much blood was on the hands of his party, and, as such, the newly appointed government, some may conclude that those who praised Madela's mercy and forgiveness, when the Truth and Reconciliation tribunal set up after he came to power, to look into the Apartheid years, did not include a provision for sanctions, were being deliberately naive.

Such nativity is not uncommon when it comes to the adoring reporting of Nelson Madela, and neither is the great leader himself rarely shy of playing up his image of fatherly elder statesman and multi-purpose paragon. However, in truth, the ANC's conscious decision to reject a policy of non-violence, such as that chosen by Gandhi, in their struggle against the white government, had left them, and by extension, their leader, with at least as much blood on their hands as their one time oppressors, and this fact alone prevented them from enacting the revenge which might otherwise have been the case.

As the first post Apartheid president of South Africa it would, be unfair if not ludicrous to judge Mandela entirely on the basis of events before he came to power, and in any event there is many a respected world leader or influential statesman with a blood stained past so let us now examine Nelson Mandela's achievements, and the events which have occurred in South Africa in the 14 short years since he took power in following the post Apartheid election in 1994, and the new South Africa which he created after coming to power on a surge of worldwide optimism and hope in 1994, when, following the end of Apartheid, he and his followers promised a new dawn for what became termed the Rainbow Nation.

Today South Africa stands out as one of the most dangerous and crime ridden nations on Earth which is not actively at War. In 2001, only seven years after the end of Apartheid, whilst the city of Amsterdam in the Netherlands with 5,6 murders per 100,000 population was declared the "murder capitol of Europe", Johannesburg, with 61.2 murders per 100,00 population and remains the world's top murder city.

In South Africa as a whole, the murder rate is seven times that of America, in terms of rape the rate is ten times as high and includes the ugly phenomenon of child rape, one of the few activities in which South Africa is now a world leader. If you don't believe me, you can read what Oprah Winfrey has to say about it here.

All other forms of violent crime are out of control, and Johannesburg is among the top world cities for muggings and violent assault, a fact seldom mentioned in connection with the 2010 World Cup which is scheduled to be hosted in South Africa.

As always with black violence the primary victims are their fellow blacks, however, the rape, murder and violent assault of whites is a daily event, and there is more ...

As with the Matabeleland massacres, news of which the BBC, together with much of the world media suppressed for twenty years to protect their one time hero, Zimbabwe's Robert Mugabe, another secret genocide is being ignored by the world media, the genocide of white Boer farmers, thousands of whom have been horribly tortured to death in their homes since the end of Apartheid. Anyone who clicks on this link should we warned that it includes some very gruesome images as the savagery of these attacks belie the authorities attempts to dismiss them as nothing more than a "crime wave".

Given that it is now all but illegal in South Africa to report the race of either victim or the perpetrator of a crime (unless the perpetrator is white and the victim black) and as modern South Africa's official crime statistics are notoriously massaged, it is impossible to know the exact numbers of farm murders that have taken place. Many reliable sources estimate the figure as close to 3,000, but even if we take the more conservative figure of 1,600 quoted in the politically correct South African press (but not quoted at all in ours) this is three times the numbers killed by the South African security forces over a period of 43 years, and which the UN calls a crime against humanity.

To put this in perspective, the population of South Africa is 47 million, (13 million less than Britain despite its far greater land mass) of which the 4.3 million whites account for 9.1%, about 1% less than the immigrant population of Britain. Can you imagine the outcry if 1,600 (let alone 3,000) members of a minority community in Britain were tortured to death by the native population?.

Yet when the victims are white, there is hardly a peep in the South African press and silence from the international media. Compare this to when a white youth is the killer, such as in the case of Johan Nel, who shot three Africans, a story which became instant world wide news with the predictable screams of racism and machete wielding mobs baying for his blood.

(And they accuse us of hate?!! Don't such people nauseate themselves with their hypocrisy?!)

Crime aside, Mandela and his ANC inherited the strongest economy in Africa, indeed, despite economic sanctions, South Africa was still one of the richest world nations, and indeed initially there was a brief post Apartheid boom, resulting from the lifting of sanctions and due to the fact that until affirmative action forced most of the whites out of their jobs to be replaced by under qualified blacks, those who had built South Africa were still in place.

However, any optimism was to be short lived. Now, after just 14 years of rule by Mandela and his grim successor Mbeke, corruption is rife, the country is beset with power cuts and the infrastructure is crumbling.

The nation's great cities like Durban and Johannesburg, which could once rival the likes of Sydney, Vancouver and San Francisco, had descended in to decaying crime ridden slums within a decade.

And in recent months we have seen the so called Rainbow nations ultimate humiliation, as xenophobic anti immigration violence spreads across the country. (“xenophobic” is what the media call racism when blacks do it) As poverty and unemployment explodes and is exacerbated by the floods of immigrants flooding in to escape the even more advanced Africanisation of the rest of the country, the mobs turn on those they blame for stealing their jobs, their homes, and their women.

Thus the cycle turns, and, like watching some barbaric version of “back to the future", on the news we see exactly the same scenes we saw on our televisions twenty years ago, wrecked buildings, burning vehicles, mobs brandishing machetes, axes and knives hacking at everything and everyone which comes within their reach. Most horrific of all, we see the return of that most savage symbol of African brutality, the necklace where, to the cheers of a blood thirsty crowd, some poor trembling soul, with a tire around his neck, is dragged from his home and set alight, exactly as all those other poor souls were set alight throughout the Apartheid years, when we were told it was all the evil white man's fault.

As nothing else the return of the necklace exposes the failure of Mandela's revolution, and those who fought for him should weep.

Under Apartheid, blacks and whites went to separate hospitals but they received world class health care, whatever their colour, now the facilities are collapsing or non-existent. Black children went to different schools than white children, but they received an education, something which is now a privileged luxury. When they grew up, their bosses may have been white, but they had jobs and a living wage, as the recent violence shows us, such security is but a memory for most South Africans.

Eighteen years after Nelson and Winnie made their historic walk towards the cameras, and 14 years, since Mandela assumed power on a tide of optimism, a once proud South Africa slides like a crumbling, crime ridden, wreck towards a precipice created though greed, corruption and incompetence.

For all his gleaming smiles, grandfatherly hand gestures, and folksy sound bites, tomorrow night, when crowd cheers the retired terrorist in the gaudy shirt, they would do best not to focus too closely upon his much admired legacy, as they might just find that the Xhosan Emperor has no clothes. For Nelson Mandela's lasting achievement is that, in the face of a wold wishing him well, he, and the party he leads, have shown the world that, for all its flaws, Apartheid was a more benign system than what replaced it, and that the average South African was immeasurably better off under the hated white rule than they are under the alternative which black rule has created.

That is quite an achievement, even for a living legend.

Stop terrorist Nelson Mandela!
Flaming liberals and other dangerously misguided souls, the kind that led to the destruction of once peaceful and prosperous South Africa, are now out to sanitize the "saintly" terrorist Nelson Mandela (wolf in sheep's clothing, who knows how to talk to white people) and his toxic organization - the terrorist African National Congress (ANC) - and have them removed from the United States' terrorist list where they belong (HR 5690). Don't let them succeed!
