apartheid – Don Boys https://donboys.cstnews.com Common Sense for Today Sun, 05 Mar 2023 04:46:50 +0000 en-US hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=4.6.29 Financial Storm Now Hitting South Africa! https://donboys.cstnews.com/financial-storm-now-hitting-south-africa https://donboys.cstnews.com/financial-storm-now-hitting-south-africa#respond Thu, 27 Sep 2018 13:35:25 +0000 http://donboys.cstnews.com/?p=2209 Dark, ominous clouds have hovered over South Africa for many years; those clouds have developed into a raging storm that may become a destructive cyclone.

The South African financial slowdown has now accelerated into a plunge into an official recession this month as second-quarter growth domestic product (GDP) figures showed a shrinkage of 0.7%, the second straight quarter of decline. This, after a decade of economic stagnation.

Such a slide into a financial nightmare will only accelerate into political rebellion and anarchy.

The main culprit causing the recession, according to South Africa’s Business Day, was a sharp contraction in the agricultural sector which has been under political assault this year as the ruling African National Congress (ANC) pledged expropriation of farm land “without compensation.” Consequently, the nation is “reeling” because of an unexpected recession following the government’s reported worse-than-expected GDP numbers.

South Africa’s long-term foreign currency credit rating is rated junk by S&P Global Ratings and their currency has been battered. Platinum prices are flagging near the lowest in a decade while diamond and gold production are now well below their peaks, although South Africa is number 5 of the world’s gold producers. It used to be ranked number one. Moreover, the most shocking number in the statistics is the “precipitous 29.2% decline in agricultural production over the second quarter.”

Could the Communist government’s taking land from white farmers and giving it to Blacks who often know nothing about farming, have something to do with the slowdown at least in agricultural production? A London Times journalist wrote, “Once-productive maize fields now grow only weeds. Citrus orchards are dying, their valuable fruit rotting on the branches. Machinery lies about rusting. Irrigation pipes have been looted and farm sheds are derelict and stripped of roofing.”

You think maybe that would have an impact on farm production rates?

Minister of Finance Nhlanhla Nene said growing the economy is “now critical” to expand the tax base. If tax collections stumble—a portent of bad times ahead—the government will have difficulty in borrowing money at reasonable interest rates. Tax collections have been down in recent years but does anyone question why? Since the government has not been receiving tax income they need in recent years, they did what most politicians do: they raised personal income taxes and increased the value-added tax (VAT)!

Over 6,000 white South African workers kicked off a go-slow protest that is now a full strike with the support of their Solidarity Union. The Whites who work for a petrochemicals firm are protesting against discrimination over a share scheme offered exclusively to Blacks. The ANC whined that the white workers are obsessed “with perpetuating racial polarization.” Sure, they demand they be treated equally since that’s what the liberation was all about under Mandela.

But there are more reasons for the poor economy than lack of tax income and strikes.

Remember South Africa has a Communist-run government. The Communist-controlled ANC has been in power starting with President Mandela’s election. He promised them, “Under a Communist Party government, South Africa will become a land of milk and honey. Political, economic, and social rights will cease to be enjoyed by whites only. They will be shared equally by whites and non-whites. There will be enough land and houses for all. There will be no unemployment, starvation, and disease. Workers will earn decent wages; transport will be cheap and education free.”

That did not happen, as everyone in South Africa knows. Poor people do get some freebies and that’s one reason for the spiraling economy. Poor people and some wealthy people receive a minimum of free water and electricity but at the end of the day, someone has to pay the bills. There has been some success in providing housing for the poor but 2.3 million poor Blacks are still standing in line waiting for a free home and a set of house keys.

This, after 24 years of waiting for the Gravy Train to stop at their station, but that train is already loaded with Members of Parliament and their cronies and officials at the province level and their cronies.

Planned and unplanned blackouts are common with hundreds of people stranded on electric trains and hundreds more standing on train platforms. Such a consequence, happening often, would impact the production rates in all sectors of the economy.

Leon Louw head of the Free Market Foundation, a major South African think tank said, “This is a simple manifestation of the breakdown of the state,” he said. “Government is just appallingly bad at everything it does: education, healthcare, infrastructure, security, everything that is a government function is in shambles.”

There are quota laws mandating that all government townships, cities, utilities, transportation companies, schools, civil service, police, and businesses hire non-whites first and keep white percentage to 10%. It’s called Black Economic Empowerment (BEE) that mandates businesses to adhere to quotas on black ownership, employment, and acquisition. The motive was to increase job opportunities for Blacks at middle and managerial levels within the public and private sector of the economy. Small businesses are not mandated since many would be run by families.

ANC parliamentarian Mario Rantho declared it “imperative to get rid of merit as the overriding principle in the appointment of public servants.” That was to “get rid of merit”! As a result, municipal budgets in the billions are now often under the control of uneducated Blacks. The black editor of the Sunday Times has admitted, “My African colleagues who manage large companies or government departments tell me that to get a job done, you usually have to employ a white.”

Sounds racist to me, but that can’t be since he’s a rather famous black newspaperman.

But there are other ramifications of the BEE because many white-owned companies go to corrupt black ANC officials who do a lucrative business renting themselves out as front men to white companies seeking government contracts. The law applies to formerly all-white companies that must have Blacks in their top management even though the black manager may not even know what the business does! About 91 percent of publically traded companies are still owned by Whites and this requires a large number of black front men.

Private companies must apply the codes if they want to do business with any government entity.

Government officials tell everyone who will listen that BEE is not affirmative action and not discriminatory; however, all honest people know it is affirmative action on steroids.

According to international banking and affairs analyst Dennis Santiago “reverse apartheid” is a “strategic mistake for the country….This is a ticking time bomb.”

The government has a land reform process in which it uses tax revenue to purchase land owned by white people to give to Blacks. However, it is not happening fast enough and Blacks are getting restless.

Even South Africa’s one time world-class mining industry is declining. It was the world’s biggest gold producer but since Communists got control, it is now fifth on the list and tumbling. Does one have to be a rocket scientist to understand that international investors don’t want to develop mines in a nation where the political party Black First Land First motto is “Land or Death!”

Nor are foreign investors encouraged to write a check when Lindsay Maasdorp, the Black Land First spokesperson, yells that all white people in South Africa “are criminals by virtue of their existence.” He also repeated his party’s slogan, “land or death,” as reported in The Citizen on September 17, 2018.

International investors are smart enough to know that a blood-bath is in the future of South Africans, so they wisely invest elsewhere.

Nedbank provides a wide range of wholesale and retail banking services and asset management services in southern Africa, and according to The South African, farmers have been warned that their debts will have to be paid in full even after their property is confiscated by the government!

Of course South Africa in headed for financial turbulence because the pendulum has swung to the opposite extreme. Deep in the human heart of all people is the desire to be treated equal. President H. W. George Bush, applying pressure for all globalists during the hated apartheid days, told President de Klerk that black South Africans should enjoy not merely “equal opportunity” but “equality of outcomes.” Marx, Lenin, and Stalin could not have said it better.

Well, the Blacks are in control and they are purposefully working to produce a system of reverse apartheid.

But, like the white apartheid, it is discrimination—even hate—with pigmentation.

South Africa’s Failure: Cruel, Corrupt, Communist Leaders! https://donboys.cstnews.com/south-africas-failure-cruel-corrupt-communist-leaders https://donboys.cstnews.com/south-africas-failure-cruel-corrupt-communist-leaders#respond Thu, 13 Sep 2018 00:23:39 +0000 http://donboys.cstnews.com/?p=2190 I had a good friend who often said, “Everything rises and falls on leadership.” He built one of America’s first mega churches, a large Baptist University, a free summer camp for children of all races, a long running radio ministry, and a very active city mission that helped thousands of homeless people.

With that principle in mind, we can understand why South Africa is in chaos today. Their leaders have been disastrous, deceitful, and dangerous Communists. Under the white minority government of apartheid, many of the white officials were racists but they were efficient educated, leaders. The Blacks that have ruled since the end of apartheid have been dishonest, decadent, even dumb. That is obvious when reading their bios.

Nelson Mandela promised all South Africans: “Under a Communist Party government, South Africa will become a land of milk and honey….There will be enough land and houses for all. There will be no unemployment, starvation and disease. Workers will earn decent wages; transport will be cheap and education free.” Well, every person in South Africa knows that did not happen and the mendacious, malicious, and murderous terrorists in the African National Congress (ANC) had no plans to keep that promise. The ANC has controlled the nation since apartheid officials were sent back to the farm and Mandela became President.

Even Archbishop Desmond Tutu refused to vote for ANC candidates in the last election according to South Africa’s Mail and Guardian newspaper in May of 2013. Tutu described South Africa as “the most unequal society in the world” and he added that corruption, unaccountability, and weaknesses in the constitution were key issues that needed to be addressed.

That’s one time, and maybe the only time, I’ve agreed with Tutu.

Mandela and other terrorists at the ANC and the South African Communist Party (SACP) got a free ride on the Gravy Train while poor Blacks were left standing at the station covered with soot with the echoes of We Shall Overcome ringing in their ears.

Fools in the free world put their trust is a corrupt, cruel, combative Communist with an appealing smile and kind voice and now the once productive nation is on the toboggan slide to disaster. And it seems unlikely for anyone anywhere to do anything about the chaos that is swiftly approaching.

When Mandela died, he was replaced by Thabo Mbeki, also a member of the ANC who served from 1999 to 2008. He had a year of military training at the Lenin International School in Moscow. During his tenure, the South African economy grew an average of 4.5% per year and the black middle class was greatly expanded because of Black Economic Empowerment (BEE).

The BEE policy requires any company seeking government contracts to have only 8% white workers. It is affirmative action on stilts. Highly educated white engineers and scientists fled the country for greener pastures. This is just one of many reasons why the water, electric, and other utilities are not producing what is required of them.

Archbishop Tutu declared that Black Economic Empowerment only serves a few black elites, leaving millions in “dehumanising poverty.” That’s the second time I’ve agreed with the Archbishop!

In 2004, President Thabo Mbeki attacked the media who argued that violent crime was out of control in South Africa. He called the media white racists who wanted the country to fail. He said crime was falling but some journalists were distorting reality by depicting black people as “barbaric savages” who liked to rape and kill. Sounds as if he was accusing the media of fake news and I know another President who has made the same charge.

Mbeki received heaps of symbolic coals of fire on his head worldwide when he questioned the link between HIV and AIDS. Then his popularity plunged further when he banned antiretroviral drugs in public hospitals. In November 2008, The New York Times reported that due to Mbeki’s rejection of scientific consensus on AIDS, an estimated 365,000 people had perished in South Africa.

The President felt impressed to resign.

At the resignation of Mbeki, Kgalema Motlanthe ruled about seven months from September of 2008 to 2009. Although raised by Anglican parents (with plans to enter the priesthood), he was influenced by the Black Panther Movement in the United States and the rising Black Consciousness Movement in South Africa. He was a member of the SACP and ANC. The former altar boy had been found guilty of terrorism and sentenced to ten years in prison being released in 1987.

He was a member of the militant wing of the ANC. For a while, he espoused the discredited views of Mbeki on AIDS but soon backed off. After he resigned as President, he served as Deputy President in the next administration.

The fourth President was Jacob Zuma (who ruled from 2009 to 2018) who has six wives and 22 children. With an incredibly corrupt past, he was chosen President, and he made the most of it for himself and his cronies. He was tried for raping the AIDS-infected daughter of an ANC friend according the Daily Mail. The Mail quoted Zuma as telling the court in 2006, “In the Zulu culture, you cannot just leave a woman if she is ready. To deny her sex, that would have been tantamount to rape.” He told the court the sex was consensual and it was his duty to have sex with her because she wore a short African wrap and he could not leave her “unfulfilled.”

What happened to all the feminists in South Africa? No, what happened to decent men and women of all tribes and races in that beleaguered nation? Honest voters would not elect him to clean out village latrines.

A Johannesburg court declared him not guilty of rape which I think was a correct decision but they did not declare him not guilty of stupidity. Nothing can help with stupidity.

He shocked everyone by admitting he knew she was HIV positive but said he wasn’t afraid of being infected since he took a shower following the alleged rape! (See end of previous paragraph.)

But then, it is South Africa.

He challenged parliament to change South Africa’s constitution to allow the expropriation of white owned land without compensation! Of course, honest people knew that was usually called thievery in polite circles. But Zuma is known as a thief having spent 15 million rand of government funds to remodel his private home.

Zuma ruled like an ancient, oriental king as President for nine tumultuous years. The scandal-ridden President whose middle name means “one who smiles while causing you harm” in Zulu still faces 783 charges of corruption, fraud, and racketeering. Moreover, he alienated all white land owners and even principled Blacks when he said, “People of South Africa, where you see a beautiful land, take it, it belongs to you.”

His outrageous counsel is said to be justified because Blacks make up four-fifths of the population but only own 4% of the farms. However, those farms have been in many of those white families for more than 300 years! Their Dutch and British ancestors carved those farms out of the jungle. They did not take any land from any Blacks yet unprincipled politicians are playing the role of dishonest demagogues to win support from the unsophisticated, uneducated, and unaware black voters.

The white farmers’ groups were appalled at the illegal land-grab saying that its members would consider land expropriation without compensation as “a declaration of war.”

Zuma’s land-grab should not have surprised anyone since he had been a member of the Communist Party since he was a youth–an active ANC member.

Zuma staggered from one scandal to another after being elected to office in 2009 and reelected in 2014. His ANC party has been challenged and pulled even further left by pressure from the radical Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF), led by Julius Malema. Zuma boasted that his ANC party would stay in power until “Jesus comes.”

At Zuma’s State of the Nation address to Parliament after his reelection, members of the EFF interrupted his speech and a fistfight broke out in an incredible, chaotic display of politics. It seems the EFF leader Julius Malema insisted on knowing when Zuma would repay the 15 million rand he illegally spent on updating his home. The brawl looked as if it was staged by Larry, Curly, and Mo. There was some eye poking and hair pulling but I did not see any pies thrown at the “loyal opposition” leaders.

Zuma received “overwhelming” support from the ANC until they could not live with the embarrassment and humiliation caused by his scandalous actions. After years of outrageous behavior, his buddies at the ANC turned on him and forced him out of office in 2018. I suppose he left to spend more time with his family (isn’t that always the reason?); but with his many wives and 22 children, he needs a lot of time. It seems that morality, decency, and character are not necessary if you are the right color and carry the right card–Black as to color and Red as to politics. But then, even Communists must face reality eventually.

Cyril Ramaphosa succeeded Zuma as President in 2018 and, following the lead of the ANC, promoted a change in the constitution to allow the government to confiscate farms owned by white people! He has said that a “legal” confiscation without compensation will encourage economic growth! Of course, it will not help the economic growth of white people but in a racist government, that doesn’t matter. Furthermore, no sane person believes the economy will improve, the stock market will soar, and everyone (Whites and Blacks) will sing Kumbaya around a Maypole.

According to City Press last month, authorities began their land grab against white land owners of two game farms in the northern province of Limpopo after negotiations with the owners to purchase the properties failed. The government usually offers one-tenth, if anything, of what the land is worth. In early August, City Press reported the government had drawn up a list of 139 farms the government planned to seize “to test out” the constitutional right to confiscate land from unwilling sellers.

A government audit conducted in 2017 found that Whites owned 72 per cent of private farmland in South Africa, a nation with 4.5 million white people which is almost 9% of the population. But then, those farms have been in those white families for generations! Their Dutch and British ancestors cleared the land, drained the swamps, and build their farms and don’t plan on walking away from them.

AgriSA said about 20 per cent of South Africa’s farms produce 80 per cent of the food that feeds millions of people in southern Africa. However, that is not enough to feed the population and the struggling nation is importing food.

According to a UN report Why Has Africa Become a Net Food Importer?, the main reasons are “population growth, low and stagnating agricultural productivity, policy distortions, weak institutions and poor infrastructure.” Of course, that is obviously true in South Africa.

I predict that this will simply be another version of Zimbabwe: murder, terror, chaos, economic disaster with investments and Whites fleeing South Africa as it plunges into darkness.

Fearful and disgruntled farmers are unable to sell their land because everyone knows it will be taken by the government sooner or later. Probably sooner than later. Earlier this month, cattle farmer Jo-an Engelbrecht told the ABC’s foreign correspondent his farm just outside Johannesburg was now “worth zero.” Engelbrecht said, “We had several auctions in the last two or three weeks cancelled because there was no people interested in buying the land. Why would anyone buy a farm knowing the government was going to take it?”

There has also been no consideration of what forced expropriation of private farms would do to the already anemic economy. It would produce a tsunami of defaults on real estate mortgages that would precipitate a world-class banking crisis and inevitable recession.

Fact: If there are no farmers, there is no future; and with such leaders, it is no surprise to any realist.

The Daily Mail ended an article with this cryptic comment that if the nation continues on its downward path, “it won’t matter who ends up president of this magical, troubled country. They will be fighting to be King of the ashes.”

South Africa was Not Colonized—Critics Are Wrong! https://donboys.cstnews.com/south-africa-was-not-colonized-critics-are-wrong https://donboys.cstnews.com/south-africa-was-not-colonized-critics-are-wrong#respond Thu, 06 Sep 2018 18:55:59 +0000 http://donboys.cstnews.com/?p=2181 Were early Americans wrong to come to this continent and form a new society without getting permission from the Indians? Suppose we wanted to do the “right thing” after we had been here for 75 years and had built a thriving nation. First, we must discover what the right thing is. Even admitting the many failures of the Europeans, would anyone argue that it would have been better if our ancestors had not landed at Plymouth Rock, Jamestown, and Salem? Even if everyone agrees that we were wrong to come here (and I refuse to admit that silly proposition), how can we change it since we are here?

In 1700, there were about 300,000 white Americans located in the eastern part of the country from the settlements in Florida, Jamestown, north to Boston and along the northeast and as far west as Kentucky and Georgia. All estimates of the number of Indians are from two million to many millions, and many of those tribes hated other tribes similar to the hatred between various black tribes in South Africa.

Suppose in 1700, the National Association of Self-righteous Hypocrites convinced the leaders in each colony that all the wrongs done to the Native Americans had to be made right. Since white leaders could not all close the cities and sail back to Europe, it was decided that the Indians must have a voice in running each colony–one man, one vote. Any idea how that would have turned out?

Some argue that the Indians did not own the land simply because they were here. What determines land ownership? Many would say ownership of the land would depend if the land has been cleared, permanent homes established, animals domesticated, the land worked, and relevant taxes paid. Surely, riding around on a horse does not establish ownership.

After cataloging and confessing our many, many failures, surely almost everyone would agree that the world would be a vastly different and miserable place had Europeans not come to these shores. So, to atone for their mistakes and to move on with their lives, modern Whites recognized their failures in the 1800s and early 1900s and gave land for reservations to the Indians with many freebies. But that, too, has failed. There is no value in living with self-hate, sorrow, or guilt because of the many Indians’ present deplorable conditions; but we should learn from the failed attempts to help the Indian tribes.

There are shocking similarities with South Africa. Even if the left wingers were right about how greedy Whites chased out the black “owners” of what is now South Africa, they would have to live with where they are now. However, liberals have made that difficult by rewriting South African History to present most white people as vile and most Blacks as virtuous.

Uninformed or prejudiced commentators on South Africa often refer to the white population as “colonialists” but history totally refutes the concept of Whites taking control of or taking land from indigenous people. When the Dutch arrived in South Africa in 1652 to found a hospital and refreshing station for their sailors passing the Cape, they found unoccupied land near the Cape of Good Hope at the very tip of Africa. If the Whites had trekked far enough north, they would have found tribes of Blacks but does any sane person suggest those Blacks owned the unoccupied land where the Dutch settled?

When Blacks discovered that white people were established south of them, they moved southward amazed with the white people and their strange appearance, habits, tools, and inventions. The simple natives were drawn to the strange, pale visitors and were fascinated with their trading items.

It was a learning experience for both Blacks and Whites and the beginning of a dubious, dangerous, and deadly relationship that forever affected both races.

There was nothing there, not a railroad, highway, building, hospital, or school. Some French Huguenots arrived in 1688 followed by the English in 1795, so white South Africans–Dutch, French, and English–go back more than 300 years. They were not colonialists and did not displace any Blacks. The Germans arrived in 1857. Add to the mix a huge group of Pakistanis, Indians, and Chinese known as Coloreds, and you have a boiling pot in our day.

The ignorant or uninformed often speak of how five million Whites dominated about 20 million Blacks but the fact is that Blacks are not a homogeneous force. There were five million Zulus; about 5 million Xhosa (pronounced Koza); two million Tswana; etc., plus about three million Coloreds who have mixed blood that could be called mulattoes. Blacks hate the Coloreds as much as they hate the Whites.

The hatred displayed among the various black tribes is legendary and pathetic and ancient.

The anger, agitation, and aggression among the black tribes are well known. A white doctor who established a hospital for Blacks in Durban declared, “When a Zulu who has been in an accident is brought in, we must have a Zulu nurse for him. If we have a Xhosa nurse, she will pull off his bandages at night and let him bleed to death.”

Now, that’s black on black hatred.

The Brits and the Dutch turned the barren tip of South Africa into one of the most advanced, modern, and safest nations in the world. They built a civilization that lifted millions of Blacks from poverty to Africa’s highest standard of living–2 to 5 times greater than anywhere in Africa.

While it is true that many white men got rich, so did some Blacks. About a million Blacks from surrounding black nations used to illegally enter South Africa each year to work in the mines. No other African nation has a problem with people trying to slip across their borders to live and work.

Even today with the transfer of power from a white minority to the black majority, the white minority still controls most of the wealth in South Africa. Thus, the pot is simmering and the top is ready to blow. Following the funeral of Mandela, Blacks jockeyed to replace him but that’s like the junior officers on the Titanic fighting for the opportunity to replace Captain Smith while the giant ship was sinking!

South Africa is sinking!

South Africa is the murder and rape capital of the world. South African men rape very young females, even babies, thinking it will cure them of AIDS! They need a cure for their stupidity and brutality. A personal encounter with biblical principles will often solve the brutality problem, but there is little hope for stupidity.

Blacks throughout the African continent were much better off under white racist government but since Whites were in control, the local Communists and international globalists screamed that it was unfair for a minority to rule a majority. So, they demanded an end to colonial rule and the now-black controlled nations have experienced famine, insurrections, genocide, Islamic terrorism, and black dictatorships. But that is acceptable to globalists because Blacks are in charge.

The U.N. Human Development Index (HDI), reveals the downward spiral of South Africa. It reveals that before 1994 during the years of white minority government, South Africa’s HDI ranking was progressively climbing and the nation was ranked far ahead of the rest of Sub-Saharan Africa. It was also higher than the world average. However, by 2001, their HDI score had fallen below the 1975 level.

Communism has historically failed. If Communists were in control of the Sahara Desert, it would be running out of sand in three years.

The failure and decline of South Africa was put in the spotlight when headlines shrieked, “King Of The Zulus: Slams ‘So-Called’ South African Democracy, Says Country Was Better Off Under Apartheid!” The long-time and respected black king found himself in hot water with his praise for the former white minority government.

Liberals squealed like a stuck pig when any credit was given to the white minority government known as apartheid. However, now that Blacks are in total control of a failing nation, the injustice by Blacks against white farmers is far worse than Whites against Blacks during apartheid. Why are leftists not screaming about the crime and mistreatment of white farmers?

Leftists were sure concerned when Blacks didn’t own many farms and had little political power. It seems Liberals, black or white, have a major problem with consistency. Maybe if it were lions, tigers, and elephants that were being killed, the radical leftists might get concerned. But white people don’t seem to matter.

The Communists in African National Congress (ANC) and the South Africa Communist Party (SACP) also called for the nationalization of mines, banks, and other major industries in South Africa and black leaders are demanding that white farmers surrender their farms that have been in their families for many generations! The first two farms were taken in August, just the beginning, so “Katie Bar the Door.” The major civil war between Blacks and Whites that Mandela allegedly diverted has obviously only been delayed.

South Africa is well on its way to being another black tragedy because of power, pride, politics, and possessions. South Africa and Zimbabwe are rich with coal, platinum, iron, chrome, gold, diamonds, etc. And if the Communists get total control of the minerals that are crucial to the free world, then free leaders will have to go, hat in hand, to totalitarians for what is needed for their survival. So, the battle in Africa is not only a black-white issue.

While apartheid was horrendous, the nation’s primary problem was politics, not prejudice. It was Communism not colonialism.

Mandela and his cronies at the ANC and SACP are/were not fools, just Communists, and you can always trust a Communist–to be a Communist. Contrary to what the ANC and leftists in the free world have said, South Africa was not a colony. It was founded on unoccupied land by Whites–some good, some bad.

Why are even Conservatives afraid to tell the truth?

Mandela Lived in a 30-Room Mansion While Dying Sister Lives in One Room with Seven Relatives! https://donboys.cstnews.com/mandela-lived-in-a-30-room-mansion-while-dying-sister-lives-in-one-room-with-11-relatives https://donboys.cstnews.com/mandela-lived-in-a-30-room-mansion-while-dying-sister-lives-in-one-room-with-11-relatives#comments Sat, 07 Dec 2013 01:35:25 +0000 http://donboys.cstnews.com/?p=654 In past years when one spoke of problems in South Africa, he often referred to the mistreatment of Blacks and their drive for racial equality in a nation dominated by a white minority. In this situation Nelson Mandela always became relevant to the conversation.

Mandela (educated at a Wesleyan Mission School) was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize in 1993 although it was obvious to all except the deaf, blind, and dumb (especially the dumb) that he was a terrorist and waged war against his own people and nation. But then, the Nobel Peace Prize seems too often be given to those who lean to the left, are left handed, and live out in left field. Of course, their left knees jerk incessantly.

Mandela was cofounder and director of the militant Spear of the Nation and was involved in burnings, brutality, and bombings by the dozens. One of his terrorist acts was the bombing at Church Street in Pretoria that killed 19 people and injured 217.  He even advised black youths to burn down their schools. Those same children are now struggling in college because they missed so much school in their early grades where foundational facts are taught.

It is unusual if the media do not refer to him as a political prisoner; however, it is interesting that Amnesty International did not consider him such because that group “rejects the proposal to recognize as prisoners of conscience people who use or advocate the use of force.” Nelson did not qualify and the media’s “make over” will not change that fact.

Mandela is known for his many illicit affairs, but we are expected to overlook all that because he was so devoted to freeing his people and throwing off the oppressive white yoke! One day, his first wife returned home to find that Mandela had installed his mistress in his bedroom!

Nelson was married three times and abandoned his first wife (a Jehovah’s Witness who was never political following the precepts of that sect) to raise their three children alone. He married Winnie who lost all credibility with everyone except those whose salaries and benefits she pays. Nelson shot her into space (divorce) when she embarrassed him and became a drag on his political life. She was vocal about advocating terror and violence to support her cause.

Winnie, convicted of fraud and theft in 2002 and still a member of the ANC’s National Executive Committee, rides in a limousine and wears very expensive clothes and jewelry, and has scores of bodyguards wherever she goes. She was convicted of kidnapping a young man who was subsequently murdered. She also said, “With our boxes of matches and our necklaces we shall liberate this country,” referring to the grisly township practice of putting a gasoline-soaked tire around the neck of suspected apartheid agents (anyone working for the white regime), cutting under their arms, and setting the tire on fire. Then the black crowd of “freedom fighters” taunted the dying “agent of apartheid.”  Minnie is a sweetie.

Such savagery did not stop after Blacks took over. Three men were killed by necklacing last year for burglary. Early in 2013 four students were necklaced in Nigeria, so this gruesome death penalty is spreading across Africa, Haiti, and Brazil.

All the victims of necklacing in South Africa have been black! Almost 200! Nelson even defended Winnie’s infamous speech on necklacing! Yep, a man of peace, principle, and purpose.

In Mandela’s long walk to free the Blacks of white domination, he and his former wife, Winnie, and his Red buddies at the ANC became filthy rich. One ANC leader said, “I didn’t enter this struggle to be poor.” They aren’t poor anymore. Meanwhile, the “natives on the reservation” are angry since the trainload of goodies did not stop for them. The gravy train stopped just long enough for Mandela and his Red cronies to climb on board before it chugged on down the tracks leaving millions of poor, disillusioned blacks wiping the soot from their faces. Winnie even said, “[Nelson] Mandela let us down. He agreed to a bad deal for the blacks.”

Mandela carefully maintained a statesman-like, friendly, likeable, reformer persona, trying to help his people (Blacks) but he has not shown any concern for his only living sibling, his elderly and sick sister. While Mandela built himself a 30-room mansion, surrounded by a high wall next to the main highway, his sister lives with seven relatives in one, round-shaped room sleeping in just four beds! However, it is crass, if not crude to speak of such things since he was a “man of conscience” and the “George Washington and Abraham Lincoln” of South Africa!

And he did spend 27 years in prison but even if he had been innocent, it would not qualify him being nominated as a member of the Trinity by the unbalanced, untruthful, unskilled, and unnecessary media!
