WASHINGTON – When President Nelson Mandela took power in South Africa after apartheid, he proclaimed “each of us is as intimately attached to the soil of this beautiful country as are the famous jacaranda trees of Pretoria and the mimosa trees of the bushveld – a rainbow nation at peace with itself and the world.”
Over a decade later, the “rainbow nation” of South Africa is unraveling at an alarming rate, as race relations deteriorate and white farmers face genocidal levels of violence.
Since the 1990s, between 2,000 and 4,000 farmers have been murdered.
White South African farmers are several times more likely to be killed than South African police officers or even American soldiers serving in Iraq.
“Often, they only count the farmer and not his wife and children that were also attacked or murdered,” South African missionary Charl Van Wyk told WND in an interview.

Why is this America's problem? Because it's white people? No need to spend American money or American lives fixing a South African problem.
ReplyDeleteGood point other than that we always stick our noses and our money where they don't belong.
DeleteIt was America that upended South Africa's government because white people were running the government which everyone agrees now it was a safer place for all back then. Now white farmers are being killed and their farms taken over by people that can't run them and they wonder why they're starving.
ReplyDeleteNone of our business, we have enough on our plate here in the U.S.A!
ReplyDeleteOnce a beautiful country- now run into the dirt by thugs and murderous thieves.
ReplyDeleteIt isn't "us" or "we" here.
ReplyDeleteWhy do the commenters identify with the US Government?
The Government is an entity.
It happens to enslave the people who live in the jurisdiction of the United States (us and we).
Stop speaking of America as "us" and "we" and so on when the correct pronoun is "The US Government"
Once you do this, things will make more sense to you.
12:36 you are an idiot and make no sense at all- the US Government does not enslave us. Move somewhere else to find out.
