After centuries of inequality, a decade of volatility, we take an in-depth look at land reform in South Africa.
(Excerpt) Read more at cnn.com ...
Reform is a buzzword for theft or more corruption or tyranny. CNN is so evil.
You mean “re-distribution of wealth-by-death”? Oh, the CNN love affair with Marxism, yes, that’s it.
After centuries of inequality
Yes
Farmers farm and produce.
Leachers leach and destroy.
Gee
Just like here.
I only got a video on the UK campaign.
Land reform in South Africa= Starvation!
You clicked on the wrong video.
Ahh, I’m glad that CNN brought up the “centuries of inequality”. I believe one of the inequalities is intelligence.
South Africa’s nation IQ average is a combination of the two main ethnic groups. These can easily be compared by looking at the Dutch (the Afrikanner’s heritage) which is tied for #6 in the world at 102 and Zimbabwe, which is probably what South Africa would be if you subtracted the several million Whites. It is rated #77 of 81, with an average IQ score of 66.
Somehow I’m expecting CNN won’t mention this. Instead we will be fed the “history of racism” bullcrap.
Thinking about it: if you had a child with an IQ of 66 would you prefer that they live in a society run by others with IQ’s of 66, or one run by people with IQs of 102? Which is more humane?

That list is very interesting, although I doubt some of it’s individual rankings. What is the source for it?
If you doubt it then disprove it.
the chart on wiki is even worse on third worlders and wiki ain’t known for being a stormfront site now is it?

Sorry, I can’t prove any of my thoughts on this, but the items that I have doubts about are the stated one point superiority of US over Canada, because of the US multicultural nature vs what I perceive Canada’s to be. The second item that I’m dubious about is the position of Israel. That seems to be oddly low.
The ANC is trying to do to South Africa what Mugabe did to Rhodesia.

-Parallels between Apartheid SA and USA--
-South Africa - The sellout of a nation--
-Robert Mugabe and the Struggle for Power--
-Rhetoric of blame is now a white lie--
-First it was Rhodesia then SA now America paying the price of silence--

Then again, we have problems of our own...
I support a white homeland within S.A., the Orange Free State. It is the only way this embattled group will survive.
Israel probably counted some in it's Arab and Bedouin communities which would have included larger chunks at times given political boundaries in that time period and Canada is harder to figure I agree....it's aboriginal pop is rather small.
The US IQ given demographics would probably be higher then than now just like height has gone down too.
IQ is so culture driven.
The information is from the book "IQ and the Wealth of Nations" and is reproduced on the Wikipedia page of the same name.
Well in the sense that cultures that last for thousands of years result in genetic changes yes. But there are many cases of identical twins raised in radically different environments who have been given IQ tests over time and the results show that IQ is largely inherited.
Did you forget the "U."
