Under Mbeki,blacks have far LESS property rights! It was Mbeki and the ANC,after all,who have gone in,unannounced,and bulldozed house of blacks.The white government had left these people alone since they had set up these places.

Your abject lack of knowledge on this subject is appalling,especially since you come onto these threads and write things that are patently false.

"Under Mbeki,blacks have far LESS property rights!"

What I said was property rights were not guranteed under apartheid SA. You could look it up. Ironfocus (who I understand is South African) said the same thing. I'm not attacking anyone criticizing the current government. I am attacking the idea (so often put forth here) that apartheid was a picnic and the country should return to it.

"It was Mbeki and the ANC,after all,who have gone in,unannounced,and bulldozed house of blacks."

And I am saying that seizing property and destroying homes has been going on for much longer than 11 years in SA.

"The white government had left these people alone since they had set up these places."

Which does not mean, as you imply, that the apartheid government left ALL people and NEVER confiscated land or bulldozed houses.

"Your abject lack of knowledge on this subject is appalling,especially since you come onto these threads and write things that are patently false."

Prove me wrong with facts and I'll gladly acknowledge my error. Do not impugn my intentions.
