At least that is where many of the Afrikaners I know have emigrated, including myself.

Many Afrikaners who have the economic resources have already fled the country..

However, there are some poor Whites who would not go anywhere.

Both the Afrikaner and the native African share the blame for the problems in South Africa. The Afrikaners had 350 years to build a just and fair society.

They did not.

They built a society based on racism (a caste system of ‘whites’, ‘coloreds’ and ‘blacks’). They had 350 years to provide equal opportunities to every South African.

They did not.

There is no where in the world where actions don’t have consequences. The Irish problem (IRA and all) had its Genesis in the 17th Century, the Yugoslavian crisis had its genesis in the Ottoman Empire.

The list is endless.

The Blacks are also to blame because they are squandering a great opportunity. Most of their leaders were trained by Marxists in Eastern Europe or by Fabian Socialists in Britain. They were trained by Marxists and Socialists because at that time Western Conservatives were busy supporting Apartheid, Jonas Savimbi, Mobutu and Buthelezi.

The miracle of South Africa is that the transition of power from Afrikanners to Blacks occured without major bloodshed. Mandela should be commended for that.
