A four-strong gang in KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa, broke into the home of a white farmer chanting “kill the Boer, kill the farmer” and violently assaulted him and his wife, stabbing the latter with a spear. Tim and Amanda Platt were beaten with “pipes, crowbars, and other instruments” by the gang, said Jacques Broodryk, a spokesman for the AfriForum group which supports South Africa’s Dutch-descended Boer (Afrikaner) minority. Amanda was reportedly “beaten with a bolt cutter and lead pipes, and eventually stabbed with a spear.” Incredibly, she managed to escape the fracas while her husband was still fighting with their attackers, and returned armed to save him as they fled. Julius Malema, the Marxist-Leninist lawmaker who leads the Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF) party in South Africa, recently led a packed stadium in chants of “shoot to kill, kill the Boer, the farmer” – an incident that gained international attention after South Africa-born Elon Musk highlighted it as a call to “racial genocide”. As President, Donald Trump tasked then-Secretary of State Mike Pompeo with investigating “the South Africa land and farm seizures and expropriations and the large scale killing of farmers” in 2018. It is unclear whether or not Pompeo ever did so, and the expropriation of white-owned land without compensation is back on the South African government’s agenda now Joe Biden is in the White House.
This is what reparations look like.
Going back to the Stone-age
These black nations starving to death and this is what they do.
It was so much worse under Apartheid. </sarcasm>.
I first thought the article was about Illinois.
America’s future considering the demographic changes we are experiencing.
That’s why there should be no reparations without repatriation to Africa.
Zimbabwe (Rhodesia) was once the ‘Breadbasket’ of central Africa.
Now they can’t even feed themselves.................
Homo erectus said lets get out of here 2 million years ago
I prefer we send our Wakandans back first.
There cannot be reparations unless these are demanded of the enslavers in Africa.
Benin, I have bad news for you.
I just don’t understand why the farmers don’t leave the country?
Those that have fled should help those still in-country.
No amount of wealth held in property is worth being beaten, raped & killed.
Since the G’vt is moving towards confiscating property even the property should not hold these farmers. This is the end result of reparations & the grievance industry and America should learn from this history.
Rhodesia then, South Africa today, tomorrow...America. That is the Left’s plan.
I have read that many of SA farmers are trying to get farms in the US.................
Many are. But they have the same love for their lands as Americans do, so it’s not easy..............
they all should have all left wi the fall of Rhodesia...
africa wins again
>africa wins again<
