During the Trail of Tears through our community, the Indian women went out to their apple tree orchards (they were agrarian Indians) and cut them all down the night before removal. There were local farmers looking forward to the easy reward of apples, which they did not get. That is how one handles confiscation. I would.

That's what South Arfican Whites should do as well during the coming mass evictions/seizing of White land...but they should pollute the land itself to make it useless for generations

2 Chronicles 32:4 - So there was gathered much people together, who stopped all the fountains, and the brook that ran through the midst of the land, saying, Why should the kings of Assyria come, and find much water?

A not-dissimilar situation and the same solution. It’s a bit odd, though, as it’s out of character - most of the time you don’t destroy water supplies. Of course, when you read further in the Bible, it’s pretty much implied that this ended up forcing the Assyrians to use a particular water source, into which apparently someone dumped something. First recorded (if mostly implied) instance of biological warfare.

As the author Neal Stephenson wrote in his novel _Snow Crash_:

“The forces of Sennacherib surrounded Jerusalem. ‘And that night the angel of the LORD went forth, and slew a hundred and eighty-five thousand in the camp of the Assyrians; and when men arose early in the morning, behold, these were all dead bodies. Then Sennacherib king of Assyria departed . . .’ 2 Kings 19:35–36.”

“I’ll bet he did. So let me get this straight: the deuteronomists, through Hezekiah, impose a policy of informational hygiene on Jerusalem and do some civil-engineering work—you said they worked on the water supply?”

“‘They stopped all the springs and the brook that flowed through the land, saying, “Why should the kings of Assyria come and find much water?” ‘ 2 Chronicles 32: 4. Then the Hebrews carved a tunnel seventeen hundred feet through solid rock to carry that water inside city walls.”

“And then as soon as Sennacherib’s soldiers came on the scene, they all dropped dead of what can only be understood as an extremely virulent disease, to which the people of Jerusalem were apparently immune. Hmm, interesting—I wonder what got into their water?”
