Proper and Improper Parallels between the USA and South Africa

Donald Trump, Kennedy, Nelson Mandela, Obama, South Africa, United States

On Thursday 29 June 2017, Dan Happel, host of the Internet Radio programme Connecting the Dots, interviewed Harry Booyens, author of AmaBhulu. The subject was “proper and improper parallels between the USA and South Africa”, and what the United States could learn from South Africa.

The  discussion touched on the remarkably similar histories of the two countries and their common origins; both started by the Dutch, both taken by the British, both fighting for their independence, both winning their first wars against Britain. In fact, South africa has been described as The Second America, a concept incorporated in the subtitle of the book AmaBhulu. The interview went on to look at parallels between the two countries in order to better clarify the damaging improper parallels that have been drawn between the two countries since around 1966, starting with the visit of the late Senator Robert Kennedy’s to South Africa.

The profound difference between the terms “African American” and “Black American” were discussed, along with the resulting implications that the USA is only now starting to appreciate after the departure of Barack Obama, an actual African American, from the White House.

While the American experience of Black/White relations may well be that of a Master and a Slave whose original culture had been forcibly removed, the South African experience is one of Clashing Civilisations. Unlike Black Americans, Black people in South Africa have no confusion about the culture and origins of their ancestors. When Americans, against this background, project their experience onto South Africa, they make serious errors of interpretation, analysis, and judgment.

The conversation went on to discuss the hopes for both countries centered on the new American President, Mr. Donald Trump.

Donald Trump, Formal Media, South Africa, United States

It would seem my words were semi-prophetic. In my most recent blog post (And still my people die, Mr. President) I suggested folks simply delete the CNN channel from their TVs. I appear to be in good company, because in an interview this week that I was unaware of at the time, President Trump said,

CNN has covered me unfairly and incorrectly and I don’t watch them anymore. A lot of people don’t watch them anymore, they’re now in third place.

I also suggested that he keeps his pressure on the media. Yesterday, a day later he unwittingly obliged me in this matter by launching an attack on the US Mainstream Media at his rally (below) in Harrisburg Pennsylvania; this when all the regular pundits thought it was time for him to make nice with the media.

I confess, I enjoyed every second of him launching into them [watch the little girl in the righthand foreground of the video]. Of course, CNN’s cameras were there to follow him. The Washington Press Correspondents Dinner, which he pointedly spurned on order to be in Harrisburg, turned out to be a pretty pathetic affair where they failed to laugh at themselves, and the best they could manage was, “We are not Fake News“.

Really!? That’s the best they’ve got!?

My response to them is, “The point is, you’re not news at all! You’re pure destructive bile with no real insight, no real licence to speak on behalf on anyone, and no solid demographic behind you. You’re just unfortunately there when my TV turns on. And you did that all to yourselves by twisting information and forcing your own biased and twisted views down decent people’s throats. And, unlike President Trump, you need to be reminded that no one had a chance to vote you in. You just presume authority like a cheap tyrant. No one wants to know what you think. They just want the news. Try doing your job. It might be a revelation even to you.”

The media is clearly on unfamiliar ground. They’re not used to being under the looking glass. They actually do not understand their own country between DC and Berkeley at all. Nor do they comprehend in any way the audience that Mr Trump has, and it terrifies the living hell out of them. So it should. If these ordinary decent folks could find the “head” of the media snake they, would assuredly “rip it off” and the world would be a better place for it. If the media people do not understand why, then they can read the book AmaBhulu.

I guess I should explain to them, “Surprise! Surprise! Welcome to America! Welcome to the world of Wal-Mart, Ford F150, Dodge RAM, Remington, Country Music, and the long-suffering Americans who made America Great in the first place so you could prey on it like a leech.”

Or, as the three farmers at a diner in Saskatchewan [that would be Canada!] told me 10 years ago, “Why don’t you leave that fancy SUV of yours at home, come visit us with your F150, and help us shoot gophers“. I was an instant fan. I love those folks to death. I think I have known them all my life…. and I grew up in South Africa. They are normal human beings.

The media might understand better if they were to take another look at the movie “O brother where art thou” and the political workings of the 1930s. Just replace the Bluegrass music with New Country.

As to the Democratic Party, whose party emblem is the donkey, they find themselves in the same situation as their emblem in the image below. And the load on the back is the Liberal US Media, Obama, and the two Clintons.

Apartheid, or Bloodlust of the Racist “Savage”?

African National Congress (ANC), Donald Trump, Farm Attacks, Genocide, Second Amendment, South Africa

— On 24 February 2017 I posted an article under the title The Real Face of South Africa. In it, I referred to the Howarth family of Dullstroom who were tortured and shot by their attackers. Sue Howarth, a British citizen, died as a result. As one might imagine, this raised some interest in Britain, where they are slowly coming out of their liberal coma; at least enough to have voted for Brexit. Perhaps that is an indication that they are getting their general socio-political brains back, which had certainly deserted them for some decades. Perhaps these events make it clear to Britons what “foreigners” are capable of.

Three of five men arrested in connection with the attack, torture and murder of the Howarths appeared in Court earlier this week. Given that this is but one of 30 farm attacks in February 2017, the police have some way to go. Of course, this would be the same government body that refuses to make public the statistics of farms attacks in South Africa. The lack of faith on the part of the farmers will therefore be understood. After all, this is the same goverment that disarmed them so that they could more easly be tortured and killed; all because they are white. Perhaps Americans who view their Second Amendment as a problem should take note.

Blaming Apartheid

The question this author has, is why it is that Black South Africans immediately try to haul out apartheid policies of more than a quarter century ago to try and defend these torture murders? Let me make this clear: The average age at which a woman first gives birth in South Africa is 22.5. If that woman was an innocent ten-year-old when Mandela walked out of his cozy Victor Verster “jail” with its personal pool and its dedicated personal White Afrikaner cook—read it in his own hand in his book—, then she had her first child in 2002 when his ANC government passed the racist discriminatory Black Economic Empowerment laws. That child is now 15 years old  and, having lived with 5 years of indoctrination by that post-apartheid and entitlement-addled mother, he is now ready to take to the streets and burn the country down. It is therefore actually that child’s GRANDparents who managed living with apartheid. I am pretty sure they would not approve of what is now happening in that country. I’m also sure they would not blame apartheid; they would blame the quarter-century old government that has all the power to do something about this nightmare, but has instead elected to disarm these farmers.

And the young accused?

Now return to that image above and estimate the age of the accused on the left. He looks as though he is in his early twenties. He was likely not even born yet when apartheid was written out of the statute books in 1990. How on Earth can his actions be attributed to apartheid? One might as well attribute Global Warming to that policy, and given its predeliction for blaming its own mistakes on apartheid, I am sure the African National Congress in fact does think that changes in climate are due to the policy from a quarter century ago.

It is ironic indeed that left-leaning Americans would attribute this kind of incitement to Donald Trump, when they have but to read these posts to see what it actually looks like when Western Christians are tortured and murdered due to a Government that targets and threatens them, and a president who actually REALLY DOES sing about killing white people. How can folks be surprised when ANC supporters then DO go out and torture and kill farmers?

So, is it Apartheid, or is it just the savage bloodlust?

Amnesty International

It is reported that a British friend of the Howarth family plans to plead the case of South African farmers with Amnesty International, an organization that is habitually quiet when Caucasian South African Christians are the suffering party.

Amnesty International is part of the Western Liberal Hegemon that has decided to pay for its own guilty conscience with the lives of the white South African farmers. These Liberals are merely impatient for all white South Africans to die out so they don’t get sidetracked from their myopic view of the world in which we live; a world in which they believe only white people do evil. In South Africa we have lived under the yoke of that collective warped  Liberal Guilt Psychosis ever since the London Missionary Society arrived in 1800. It is the reason for the country having the borders it has; it is the reason for the country having the problems it has; it is one of the embodiments of the evil that stalks the West as a whole. These are people who believed in the warped concept of “The Noble Savage”. Most never met a “savage”. If found guilty—I still believe in “innocent until proven guilty”— that would be the “Savage Nobility” in the picture above.

As a nation, the Caucasian Christian Afrikaner has suffered this warped philosophy and the role of Whipping Boy for the sins of the West ever since the end of the first decade of the 1800s. It is ever so useful to liberal people in the West to have such a whipping boy available, suitably far enough away from their own backyards.

For those too liberal and “enlightened” to know the meaning of the term, Google “Whipping Boy“. Remember to put it in quotes. Unlike the real whipping boys, we have never experienced an upside to the role.

Read it all in AmaBhulu.

The Suidlanders aim at the USA

African National Congress (ANC), Genocide, South Africa, United States

—The Suidlander civil defence organization of South Africa is quite wisely preparing for a nightmare in South Africa. I do not share their deep belief in the prophecies of Siener van Rensburg, their parochial use of the word “Boer”, or their idea that the “Boerevolk” was born at Blood River in the few days leading up to 16 December 1838. Given that I am in fact a Geloftebaba (Child of the Vow, born on 16 December), I take some interest in such matters. However, I have considered their anticipated nightmare inevitable ever since Thabo Mbeki took over the reins of the country from Nelson Mandela around 1997, three years before his actual inauguration as president. In the environment in which I found myself in South Africa the threats were rather vivid. One had to be deaf, dumb and blind not to be able to predict what would happen.

A mere three years later, overt threats were made to me face to face in the workplace by ANC Political Officers. These creatures clearly held sway over the top management of the organization, although they “moved in the shadows”. For clarity on this, read AmaBhulu. If you have absolutely no idea what I am talking about, you are sadly in need of education on the subject of Communist practice and doctrine.

I would like to make it clear that I believe these folks are correct to prepare for the worst, because much of urban White South Africa appears to living in some sort of state of denial. I do not think focusing on rugby and braaivleis (barbecue) is going to make the problems go away. I believe some of them to be suffering from Stockholm Syndrome.

So, SOMEONE, has to be planning for the worst, and, beyond Solidariteit (a trade union body) and Afriforum (a farmers’ union), the Suidlanders are the onlyorganized group at all that I see out there actually doing something. Most seem to just curse at the ANC and then have a beer or go have a break from the stress in the Kruger National Park. Others just descend into the oblivion of the white squatter camps. Looking at all of this from faraway Canada, is like watching a flock of lamb walk itself to the slaughter.

In 2015, Alex Newman, a freelance reporter for the New American, wrote a glowing review of my book AmaBhulu. He has now addressed the efforts of the Suidlanders quite sympathetically. In the process, he has also contacted this author for comment and to introduce the Suidlanders to me and vice versa. His latest article, published today, is all about the Suidlander effort and their proposed visit to the United States to seek support. It also covers the views of this present author on the subject.

I shall summarize my standard advice here for South Africans:

1. Move west or emigrate;
2. Those who move west should join forces politically with the Coloured population of the West Cape who share their language and basic values; and
3. Understand that indigenous Black people have no historic, political, or cultural claim to the West of South Africa. Their history lies north and east of the border that Governor van Plettenberg drew in 1778, and they never had a presence in the south or west of the Free State, nor west of the Korannaberg outside Kruruman. Even the Ba’Rolong of Thaba’nchu are 1800s Ba’Tswana immigrants from the old West Transvaal.

The Real Face of South Africa

Tags

African National Congress (ANC), Afrikaners, Democracy, Donald Trump, Nelson Mandela, South Africa

Take a good look

– Folks in North America seem to think that South Africa is some sort of miracle of democracy and brotherly love, a symbol of the power of democracy. Being generally ill-informed about the planet outside their countries, they have tended to believe the media when it comes to events in such other countries. More recently, they have started to realize that they have been extensively lied to and misled about matters in their own countries. President Trump is doing an excellent job of keeping pressure on the media for its actions. But he is up against 50 years of entrenched abuse. It will take a while for Americans in general to realize that they have been just as much lied to about other countries.

One mental picture they possess almost to a man, is that South Africa is this wonderful place with serene scenes of animals and a “rainbow nation” basking in the “Glory of Democracy”. They have been led to believe that they have played a major role in establishing this “Heaven on Earth” that is South Africa.

Well, the time has come to show folks in North America what it really looks like and what has really been done in their name. So I invite all Americans and Canadians to take a good look at the accompanying photo, because it is the true face of South Africa today. The country has now been essentially as long under the rule of Mandela’s ANC Party as what he sat in jail on Robben Island and in Pollsmoor Prison, and this is what they have done with it. We now have a situation where the 4.5 million White South Africans have sat in the jail that is South Africa for as long as that one single black terrorist, founder and leader of the military wing of his party, sat in a proper jail for being properly convicted. This was never done to him while in jail. In fact, he was treated in Tygerberg Hospital, the best the country has. When he was moved  from Pollsmoor, the prison authorities gave him a house with a swimming pool and a white male Afrikaner cook, and he was welcomed with a case of wine.

An Orgy of Bloodlust

The picture above shows the Wiggill family of Haenertsburg after they were attacked by black men on their farm. This story is repeating itself all over the country. In the last few weeks, all in February, there were 30 attacks on farms. In one case a white lady was raped and then her eyes were gouged out.  The savagery has assumed the proportions of an orgy of animal bloodlust by creatures that have become utterly subhuman.

Just for the record, the Wiggill family has been in South Africa since at least the 1820s, when the nearest Black people lived east of the Great Fish River in the Eastern Cape. That is longer than most Americans can trace their own ancestors in the USA. Julius Malema, a political leader who shares the tribal ethnicity of the killer, threatens violence on White South Africans. He cannot even prove his ancestors were ever south of Pretoria. Apparently, having a black skin is a licence to violence in his mind.

A Month of Slaughter

This month of February 2017 has been one of abject slaughter of white people in that country and I defy anyone to point to an article in the formal North American media about it. They are too busy printing and broadcasting their hatred of Donald Trump to care about actual news— the infamous Liberal Mental Meltdown. They never were good at the truth, because this picture shows what it actually looks like. Their usual reaction is to ignore news that does not fit their script.

Some further example attacks from February:

The Howarths of Dullstroom

Tanya Wiers of Polokwane

The Solik Family of Nottingham Road

The Smuts family of Balfour

Trevor Rees of Underberg, 

Gavin Carter (Australian) of Underberg

The Great Mandela Lie

At his Presidential Inauguration in 1994, Nelson Mandela spoke the Great Mandela Lie :

Never….NEVER! … and NEVER AGAIN….shall it be that this beautiful land will again experience oppression of one by another….

He is is dead and mouldering in his grave, and life in the country has turned to Black Racist terror at the hands of his followers. There are now more racist laws aimed against White people than there ever were addressing Black people before 1994. We always knew this would happen and that is why White South Africans  resisted to the best of their ability, but the battle was lost when the United States turned on them in the mid 1980s under a Democrat dominated Congress trying to win Black American votes. Most White South Africans, like the present author at the time, did their best to make the New South Africa work, but a mere three years after Mandela’s assumption of power the endgame was clear. This author reluctantly packed his bags and left with his family within another three. And this picture shows readers exactly why – and I am certainly sparing you the worst.

North American Cognitive Dissonance

But American Democrats prefer to talk about special immigration rights for Syrians, whose very own people are in fact in command of their own country. South Africa is a racist bloodbath in the making, and the Left utters not a word. Of course, the White South Africans are largely Protestant Christians, so they get no consideration. They must just wait to die. But Syrian Muslims? Oh no, that is somehow a moral argument and the Left takes to the streets and the ACLU to the courts in support.

Are decent Americans and Canadians, both of them nations who helped directly to engineer this situation with great pride, really going to attempt to plead ignorance? Seriously? Are you kidding me? Pierre Trudeau backed the Cubans in invading Africa to keep South Africans from helping black people oppose the USSR in the mid-1970s. The Democrat US Congress overturned a very well-informed veto by President Reagan against the Sanctions they insisted on slamming on South Africa in the mid-1980s. Both were key events in creating the above image. The first killed South Africa’s successful outreach in Africa and the second killed its economy.

My apologies to North American liberals who experience Cognitive Dissonance—discomfort when confronted with new information that contradicts existing beliefs, ideas, and values—when faced with this reality. I trust they will not choke on their lattes. The South African ones have fled or are living in secure communities, anywhere far enough from a farm.

Biblical

The reader needs to understand that I am holding back the truly extreme pictures. The degree of torture that accompanies these farms attacks is extreme beyond what can really be shown to “civilized” media people. And so they look away and wash their hands, but they do send the Afrikaner into oblivion. But we’ve seen this before, have we not? At least the character in the centre of the picture lobbied for the Prisoner to be spared before washing his hands. [Click the cross at the top right of the picture page in this link to see the article].

The time has come

The time has come for decent and  honourable Christian people with a sense of justice and human compassion in the United States and Canada to do the right thing. They need to demand that their Congressmen take a hand in addressing the situation in South Africa. Could these farmers be at least shown the compassion the Syrians have experienced? This hell has been brought upon the ordinary folks in South Africa by the specific actions of past liberal Canadian and US governments. And the American Pottery Barn rule says, “If you break it, you own it!“. Both President Reagan and George HW Bush knew the true situation. But Reagan’s veto was overturned by Congress and George HW Bush’s own listing of the ANC as a terrorist organization in 1988 was overturned some 20 years later by none other than his own son.

White South African farmers are strategically in no position to defend themselves; certainly not while the the US and Canadian media laud the monsters that really lurk behind what one can see and read above. It is amazing that anyone should be surprised at this situation. I warned about all this as best I could in the book AmaBhulu, which took me seven years to put together in order to ensure that every statement is backed up by evidence. All is now much worse.

The West ought to be ashamed of itself.
