    It has all the signs if reports from the region are to be believed.

    A white farmer murdered yesterday in front of his wife and child. The perps were a group of black men allegedly.

    Nelson's passing could be the trigger for a blood fest, hopefully not but it could happen.

    Unlikely I'd say... It pretty much happened in Zimbabwe though.

    I have heard loads of talk about this. I know most Jewish South Africans have left.

    As I said in the Mandela death watch thread, there is a good chance in 15 years SA will be like Zimbabwe in the 90s. Just takes one party rule, a corrupt leader and some rabble rousing.

    Sometimes it's warranted, i.e. when people actually derail threads with conspiracy theories. But in this case, you're right, it's out of order.

    And this idea of (south africa going to rot because an old man who can't speak in public because of old age, will soon not be able to speak in public because of death), isn't a conspiracy theory because................?

    Anyways, if it pisses you off then "wah". (Not wha, wah, as in crybaby)

    One party rule: check.
    A corrupt leader. Sort of check, there have been some terrible politicians in office there since Nelson M. left the presidency.
    Rabble rousing. Check. The former ANC Youth League president (once tipped to be a future president) was one Julius Malema. His favourite song was "Shoot the Boer." He also gave some fiery speeches in Zimbabwe to ZANU-PF supporters that would likely make the Black Panthers look timid by comparison.

    If someone like him ever gets power in South Africa, heaven help all the people of that country - black and white alike.

    They should do as they like and watch South Africa turn from a booming economy to a cesspit of stupidity and Violence. You would think they would have learned from Zimbabwe but if they are not smart enough too, then their loss.

    South Africa belongs to the white as well as the black in the country, its stupid to think otherwise.

    Because if I understand the thought process correctly, Nelson Mandela is a force for moderation and harmony. When he's gone and South Africans have only racial figures like Julius Malema for black South Africans and stories about the latest farmer to have been murdered for white South Africans, it might not be pretty.

    Wow, that was mature. :rolleyes:

    By the way, the mods will decide if this thread is discussing a conspiracy theory in which case they will move it.

    Until then (stooping unfortunately to your level of petty childishness)

    Well, that was more for the fella posting behind you than you. At least you had the courtesy of explaining the point being made, and a valid point it is.

    So, re: the video, eh.....

    Yore Ma. :PAC:

    Ok... but what are the signs of some systemic ethnic cleansing?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,142 ✭✭✭Hitchens


    Ok... but what are the signs of some systemic ethnic cleansing?

    "In July of 2012, Dr. Gregory Stanton, head of the nonprofit group Genocide Watch, - conducted a fact-finding mission in South Africa. He concluded that there is a coordinated campaign of genocide being conducted against white farmers, known as Boers. “The farm murders, we have become convinced, are not accidental,” Stanton contended. “It was very clear that the massacres were not common crimes,” he added—especially because of the absolute barbarity used against the victims. “We don’t know exactly who is planning them yet, but what we are calling for is an international investigation,” he added.

    The number of farm murders, or “plaasmoorde” as it is called in Afrikaans, is staggering. Over the last decade, it is estimated that at least 3000 Boers have been killed. Estimating the number of murders is necessary because the ANC has banned crime statistics from being compiled, claiming they scare off foreign investment. Moreover, the world knows little about the savagery that accompanies those killings. Many victims, including women and infant children, are raped or tortured before they are killed. Some have boiling water poured down their throats, some are burned with hot pokers, and some are hacked to death with machetes, or disemboweled. Several others have been tied to their own cars and dragged for miles."

    Great. Can I have the link address to the Genocide Watch article?
    I noticed you didn't attach it, and one of the google results seemed to be stormfront and some other nutjobs.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,075 ✭✭✭Wattle


    It may happen in farming areas but ethnic cleansing the whole of the country? No chance. There is more integration now. It's not perfect but I don't see an imminent bloodbath.

    No... I googled it and I just got a load of off the wall websites like stormfront and jihad watch.

    Obviously you got it from the Irish Times or somewhere reputable... just looking for a reputable link, that's all.

    How many black people were murdered in South Africa yesterday?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16 Poo Fingers


    Don't be silly. Racism doesn't count when it's against white people.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,382 ✭✭✭✭greendom


    There may continúe to be isolated murders but there is no reason to believe
    that the death of Mandela will cause these to increase, never mind turn into a full blown genocide


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 314 ✭✭0066ad

    I can't find any news articles from yesterday of any blacks in South Africa, killed
    by a group of white farmers, can you?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,466 ✭✭✭Clandestine


    White genocide is coming to South Africa, mark my words.

    I doubt it. In Zimbabwe the whites were at most 4%, a very small minority. In South Africa, whites are nearly at 9% and the Afrikaner speaking "Coloureds" are also nearly at 9%, totalling around 9 million European language speaking people together. This gives them a much bigger voice inside the country and parliament than Rhodesians had.

    The murder of Boer farmers is massively unfortunate, especially considering many killings are politically motivated without actually taking anything. However, crime is rampant in SA and I would guess the blacks are no better off and are probably bigger victims of crimes because they can't pay private security firms.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,388 ✭✭✭KingOfFairview


    No, this is a bizarre fantasy entertained by racist imbeciles who wish to whip up trouble. Link to that report please

    If ethnic cleansing did start there would probably be a boycott organised similar to the ones that happened during apartheid. There would also be an inevitable backlash from the international community. I just can't see South Africa regressing like that.
