South Africa’s Hell on Earth
FrontPageMag.com ^ | March 19, 2013 | Daniel Greenfield

When a 23-year-old woman was raped and tortured to death in Delhi, the case captured the attention of the world. Two months later, a 17-year-old girl was raped and tortured to death near Cape Town in an eerily similar case, but hardly anyone noticed. In both cases, the women were gang raped, mutilated and cut open. But the rape and murder of women has become horrifyingly common in South Africa.

Nelson Mandela is still officially venerated as a saint, his smiling face appearing on countless posters, while the man himself, having solved all the problems of his native country, tours the world with a group of elders, including Kofi Annan and Jimmy Carter, to solve the problems of other countries; but while Mandela tours, his own country has descended into its own kind of hell.

For women, South Africa may be the worst place on earth. South Africa is one of the few countries on earth where women die before men.

South Africa has the most rapes per capita of anywhere in the world. 3,600 rapes happen in South Africa every day. 40% percent of South African women will be raped. In one survey, 1 in 4 men admitted to being rapists. 1 in 10 of those admitted to raping little girls. Children are believed to be the victims of 41% of the rapes in the country.

But the best picture of how nightmarish South Africa has become for women may be that the President of South Africa, Jacob Zuma of the African National Congress, had been on trial for rape. Since the trial, Zuma’s accuser has fled abroad, after being threatened, while Zuma rules South Africa.

Both the 17-year-old girl and Zuma’s accuser were black.

Tellingly, Zuma’s accuser was HIV positive and a victim of child rape.

Both Mugabe and the ANC have tried to cover up their disastrous misrule by turning the white population into scapegoats with land seizures and racial hiring practices, but what they have really done is played favorites, handing out plum positions and farms to their cronies while destroying business and agriculture. And the Marikana mine massacre dispelled any illusions that the ANC would be any less brutal toward black workers than the old regime.

If Black Panthers took over Detroit...

A recent survey showed 28% of South African girls under 16 years of age have HIV/AIDS due to being raped by older men with AIDS.

There should be no doubt that the old regime Apartheid was about the only thing h0lding that country together. The violence vacuum has now been filled.

Where are people like Charlize Theron?

Oh, that’s right, Ms. Theron is too busy fighting for animals through PETA and for same sex “marriage”. She doesn’t have time to be bothered by such horrific acts in her own country when she can pontificate to the American middle class. This is so much easier and so much more chic and so selfishly beneficial to her career.

I really don’t care any longer.

The ANC/Mandela propoganda has been so thick and impenetrable the last 25 years, no light can get through. The ANC rec’d $80 million per year from the Soviets in the 1980’s. St. Mandela’s own wife has been charged with multiple counts of murder. Besides the brutal rape culture inflicted on women there, there is a also genocide of white farmers going on that no one cares about.

Any concern I may have had effected nothing - so if S. Africa drops into a Rwanda-style massacre tomorrow, I can only say that a people get the kind of Gov’t they deserve.

“...in South Africa every day. 40% percent of South African women will be raped. In one survey, 1 in 4 men admitted to being rapists. 1 in 10 of those admitted to raping little girls.”

That tells you everything you need to know. Talk of apartheid, Mugabe, etc. doesn’t matter. 25% of men acknowledging to be rapists. 10% as child rapists. Simply put, they’re a bunch of animals.

“Freeeeeeee Nelson Mandela.
Freeeeeeeeeee Nelson Mandela.”

What a catchy tune that was.

They believe a cure for HIV/AIDS is to have sex with a virgin and that’s why South Africa has such a high rate of child rape.

Yup, but that don’t make it right.

Jeez, that’s more than 1 in 4 South African girls who have been raped enough times to be given AIDS before they are 14.

These men with AIDS that rape 12 -14 year old little girls and give them AIDS need to be put up against a wall and summarily executed in the streets.
