Why anyone would want to live in the rathole that is Africa - much less fight for a piece of it - is beyond me

Have you ever been to South Africa?

South Africa -- and Rhodesia -- were once the breadbaskets of Africa.

After the US conspired with the world socialists and pseudo-egalitarian MORONS to convert them to black dictatorships, they lost that status.

Now it's on to "land reform" to run the last European (read that "white") farm owners/managers off the land.

A few years of THAT -- and the corruption, graft and tribal rivalries kept in check by those hated whites -- and they will no longer be capable of feeding themselves.

And, no, I am NOT a racist.

Google "Eric Hoffer" for HIS SPOT ON thoughts on this subject from 40 years ago.

I would agree. Unless there can be a black farmer class that can feed South Africa, the nation is doomed. I think there might be one in the making, but you can't do that just by seizing farms and giving them to your political cronies.

I think the Boers should stay and fight for their country

It has yet to be shown that any Western men will do what is necessary to seize and hold a homeland outside of Europe, North and South America, and Australia.

It is not even clear that we are willing to fight for Europe.

Your advice to the Boers is easy to give. It may not be so easy for them to follow.

They'd better sell what they can and get out now.

It's revenge for Aperthied, pure and simple.

Unfortunately, the ANC embraced Communism because their enemies opposed it, nothing more. The supporters of Apertheid gave free enterprise and community a bad name and their decendants paying the price for it. What's worst of all, some people are claiming that South Africa's decline is being caused by racial equality, when the real culprit is Communism.

It won't be easy with other Western men siding against them. The US and Europe forced them to give up their power.

We have a lot of Boers here in Southern California, too. One runs into them in churches, in particular. But they and their descendants will assimilate into white-American culture, and from what I gather, a lot of Boers would prefer to remain Boers -- which is their right -- and there's only one place you can do that.

Trouble indeed. Although not unexpected, and certainly not new.
