South Africa’s Julius Malema: Trump’s Right, We’re Coming for White Farmers

Radical South African politician Julius Malema confirmed President Donald Trump’s concerns Thursday, declaring defiantly that the point of the country’s proposed new “expropriation without compensation” policy would be to take land from white farmers.

“Through land expropriation, we are forcing white people to share the land which was gained through a crime against the humanity of black and African people,” Malema said in a press conference, referring to the racist land policies of colonialism and apartheid. On Wednesday evening, President Donald Trump’s tweeted that he had directed Secretary of State Mike Pompeo “to closely study the South Africa land and farm seizures and expropriations and the large scale killing of farmers.”

He appeared to be reacting to a segment on Tucker Carlson’s show on Fox News that evening, during which Carlson highlighted a State Department statement on South Africa’s proposed land reforms that seemed to defend the South African government’s approach and downplay criticisms.

The South African government reacted angrily: “South Africa totally rejects this narrow perception which only seeks to divide our nation and reminds us of our colonial past.” Trump’s domestic critics accused him of racism, and spreading fake news.

But South African critics of the proposed land reform policy applauded Trump for speaking out, and the most radical supporters of the policy — like Malema — confirmed the racial motivations behind the new policy, while daring the United States to do anything about it. “We must put it on record, unequivocally, that Donald ‘the pathological liar’ Trump, we are not scared of you and your USA or Western imperialist forces,” said Malema, the leader of the small but vocal Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF) opposition party.

“We are not the generation that is going to kneel at the statue of Western imperialism....”

I think you miss a number of essential points, and would strongly urge you to read my article on South Africa & Apartheid. It (Apartheid) & South African history have been grossly misrepresented by the American media, since the 1950s.

Perspective & Focus [The section on South Africa is a bit over half way down.]

As for your earlier inquiry as to my being somehow manipulated by the Left, you will find several articles at my web site, which make it quite clear that I view both American & African Blacks as clear victims of Leftist machinations--victims of people like Soros, guilt ridden White Academics, and the modern Jacobins in pursuit of an egalitarian world order, etc.

For example How The Left Keeps Minorities Dependent.

Or "Democracy" In The Third World.

My 600+ page novel also deals with various aspects of the same socio/political dynamics.

Didn’t mean anything against you. My apologies if it came across personal. I just don’t trust the left, that’s it. Whenever they’re involved in any kind of race issue, the real story is going to be somewhere buried in their lies, their cowardice and their stupidity.
