Africa should apologise for Slave Trade

A Nigerian civil rights group has written an open letter to African chieftains calling for an apology for their role in the slave trade to America.

“We cannot continue to blame the white men, as Africans particularly the traditional rulers, are not blameless,” said the Civil Rights Congress.

The group calls on traditional African rulers to fess up to their forefathers’ actively collaborating with European slave-traders and “put a final seal to the history of slave trade”.

Civil Rights Congress president Shehu Sani says they are calling for this apology because traditional rulers are seeking inclusion in the forthcoming constitutional amendment in Nigeria.

“We felt that for them to have the moral standing to be part of our constitutional arrangement there are some historical issues for them to address,” he told the BBC World Service.

ANC Govt Cracks Down On Bloggers

• Beeld reports on arrest of UG of SA Sucks
• UG of SA Sucks arrested

 

FTO also reported on the ANC crackdown during the last few days on people from a few websites and blogs that are critical of the ANC.  Three of which have been released with no charges made against them.

It seems that in most cases the police confiscated computer equipment. It is clear that the South African government is cracking down on bloggers that are critical of the way they run the country and they want to censor the information these bloggers and websites give out.

The Right Perspective already reported on the ZASucks case where the blogger Uhuru Guru was arrested, spent the night in jail and was released with no charges. No word if he got his computer equipment back that was confiscated.

At another site Boerevryheid, another two contributors got arrested, their equipment taken and was later released without charges  No word if they got their equipment back. A lot of people claim that this is because South Africa wants the bad publicity to stop before the 2010 soccer world cup, but instead of dealing with the crime directly, they now try to intimidate these bloggers and website contributors.

Another blogger of Boer Freedom has been arrested, also this time no charges after spending some time in jail. Some claim this is because they blog about the "boer genocide" that is taking place in South Africa.

Whatever the reason, the government is kicking down doors and arresting people that are critical of them.

UG of South Africa Sucks Arrested

Uhuru Guru of South Africa Sucks was arrested this morning at around 06h30 on trumped up charges regarding an alleged offence dating back to 1993. His door was ripped off, his wife was not allowed to make calls, his children’s cell phones were confiscated, his little daughters were ripped out of their beds, you cannot believe the cruelty!!!!!!!

A massive contingent of police from no less than five different specialist units, ranging from Organised Crime, Cyber crime, vehicle theft, etc; raided his home and confiscated all his computer equipment.

This arrest is motivated ultimately by the State. No doubt it has to do with ZASucks.

When they finished the raid, two very grey, shady looking characters sat him down and questioned him about the blog. White, Afrikaans men, to boot.

They were told he would not answer any questions re the blog. They persisted and they were again, rudely this time, told to pack it in.

They then asked him what far right meetings he attended. The answer was none.

Then, shockingly, they started questioning him about no less than Dan Roodt. They were again told no questions about Roodt either.

Trying to get him out on bail proved impossible. Not only did the police in the form of Capt vd Linde lie, he, Capt van der Linde pulled every trick in the book to prevent him from getting him to court for bail. He arrived at the police station at about 11h00, which gave them, in the form of Capt vd Linde, more than enough time to process him and get him to court. Instead, vd Linde chose to tell our Advocate what a piece of filth UG is!!!

At 14h00 van der Linde sent 2 cops to take UG to Court. They never arrived. Van der Linde lied!!!!

So unfortunately, he is sleeping in a cell tonight with about a dozen blacks.

I am genuinely fearful about his safety folks. Please think about him. I will keep you updated.

Please spread the word around the planet!!

Captain Eugene van der Linde at Linden SAPS, white male Afrikaner - we always thought you were a professional and decent policeman - now we know different!! You abuse the processes. You are no  better than the rest of the corrupt ANC scum. You are a liar, you did not keep your word - you are a disgusting piece of excrement. Joiner!! Race traitor!!

Bear Joins “War” On Terror

Apart from Republicans kicking some Dummycrat behind, I also enjoyed the following from Doberman at ILSA.

Uh oh, expect mass suicide bombings of bears now.

BBC - A bear killed two militants after discovering them in its den in Indian-administered Kashmir, police say.

Two other militants escaped, one of them badly wounded, after the attack in Kulgam district, south of Srinagar.

The militants had assault rifles but were taken by surprise - police found the remains of pudding they had made to eat when the bear attacked.

It is thought to be the first such incident since Muslim separatists took up arms against Indian rule in 1989.

The militants had made their hideout in a cave which was actually the bear's den, said police officer Farooq Ahmed.

The dead have been identified as Mohammad Amin alias Qaiser, and Bashir Ahmed alias Saifullah.

News of the attack emerged when their injured comrade went to a nearby village for treatment.

"Word spread in the village that Qaiser had been killed by the bear," another police officer said.

A joint party of the police and army personnel went into the forest and collected the bodies of the two militants.

Police say they also recovered two Kalashnikov assault rifles and some ammunition from the hideout.

Media Psychosis

Afrikaners not “Minorities” – Minorities not Minorities either

The following article by Adriana Stuijt gives a lot of insight into the African mindset, especially those in political or other power positions.  I’ve said it before – forget about the peanut-brain Malemas of this world.  Those regarded as “educated” and “mild mannered” will be the ones leading the onslaught.  “If you can’t see the writing on the wall, you had better wake up before you are the one with a handkerchief over the eyes facing the firing squad” – Frank of Queens.

Oct 21 2009 – Afrikaner minority-rights activists yesterday launched a determined verbal attack at the African Human Rights Day conference in  Parktown yesterday  - with Afrikaner intellectuals climbing into the draft report drawn up by ANC-officials for the UN Human Minority Rights Commission conference in Geneva on November 11.

This event was heavily-censored by the SABC-news TV however, which merely reported the following:

“South Africa does not need a special dispensation to cater for indigenous groups and minorities as its Constitution protects and guarantees the cultural, linguistic and religious rights of all her people,” the  IEC president Pansy Tlakula told a meeting looking at minority rights :

However, the often very angry, heated debate between the small number of Afrikaners and the black majority at this meeting – and which had led to this statement by Tlakula -- was not reported by the SABC-TV at all. And even though they also interviewed Dr Dan Roodt, the Afrikaner intellectual who headed this highly-critical minority-delegation, the SABC-TV chose not to broadcast this interview thus far…

Dr Dan Roodt’s report: http://www.praag.co.za/nuus-magazine-402/afrikaanse-nuus-magazine-401/6164-vonke-spat-by-minderheidskonferensie.html

Yesterday’s African Human Rights Day conference was called by the SA human rights commission to gain the stamp of approval for their concept report – however the Afrikaner intellectual delegation – comprised of Dr Pieter Duvenage, Dan Roodt, Louis Smuts and André Alkema, sharply criticised the submitted draft, saying that the Afrikaner delegation did not agree to its wording --  and would be getting together with other Afrikaner groups to draw up their own ‘dissenting minority-opinion report’ in time for submission to the November 11 2009 UN conference in Geneva, Switzerland.

At the start of the morning-session, while Dr Dan Roodt – the businessman and author who founded the activist Pro-Afrikaans Action Group (PRAAG) was holding a press conference outside the SABC-radio and TV station about the issue, Dr Duvenage was inside engaged in hot debates with delegates.

“SA State does not recognise the presence of Afrikaner minority…”

Stating his held viewpoint -- as a leading member of the Afrikaner minority in the country -- Duvenage said the South African state ‘’ can no longer be viewed as having any legitimacy because it cannot guarantee the safety of its citizens any longer’.

Moreover, he said –-- amidst loud and often very angry protestations from the black delegates -- that ‘the presence of the Afrikaner minority was  not even recognised by the SA State any longer’.

• This raised the ire of one featured black conference-speaker, Ms Colet Letlojane – who flew into Duvenhage ‘s claim with counter-accusations of ‘disloyalty towards the black majority which had forgiven him (Duvenage) for apartheid…’

Afrikaners laughed at by head of SA Human Rights commission:

After the morning session, the newly-appointed head of the SA Human Rights commission, adv. Tseliso Thipanyane, was standing around amidst a large crowd of admirers and bystanders, and was heard to joke in a demeaning way about the Afrikaner-minority delegates, repeatedly chanting; “I want my Afrikaans, I want my Afrikaans” – to the huge amusement of bystanders.

• “900 people killed in political violence during apartheid – but tens of thousands of Afrikaners have already been killed by the black majority after 1994…”
• During the morning session, when the few Afrikaner delegates such as Duvenage were enduring verbal attacks in highly-emotional language by many other delegates, Dr Roodt also responded by saying that  “he was pleased that Duvenage was forgiven for apartheid.”

“However if one places this forgiveness towards Duvenage against the fact that 900 people were killed during political violence throughout the entire apartheid-period (1948-1994) in South Africa, while thus far some 750,000 people have already been murdered since 1994, amongst whom also were many tens of thousands of Afrikaners, Duvenhage should actually show forgiveness towards his accusers rather than the other way around, because “it’s the vast black majority who are committing this horrific crimes,” said Roodt.

This comment put the cat amongst the pigeons – with  black delegates then attacking the very concept a ‘minority group’.  One official of the Justice department even claimed that the concept ‘minority group’ was a ‘dynamic concept and that this doesn’t mean that South Africa was comprised of minorities…’

• During the afternoon-session, the chief editor of the Department of foreign affairs’ human-rights and humanitarian affairs, Pitso Montwedi, also vehemently denied Dr Roodt’s statistical submission that the official apartheid-era death-rate was 900 people, saying this was “a lie” . Dr Roodt then asked that ‘the true apartheid-era political death rates’ be published, since these he had quoted had come directly from the SA Truth and Reconciliation Commission.

Many of the other black speakers also claimed that the concept of ‘minority rights’ was born during apartheid, that South Africa now was one homogenous nation without any minorities…

Another government official also said that ‘ if minority groups joined the ruling party (i.e. the ANC) they could participate in politics’.

• Minorities in SA have no rights to influence political power…
• Dr Roodt responded to this by asking whether this official thus was ‘lodging a plea for a one-party state’ with this invitation – to which this official responded that ‘minorities did not have any rights to influence political power nor have any political influence…’

The ANC-executives at the conference then tried to defuse the debate about Afrikaner-minority rights by changing the subject altogether – namely to that of the ‘rights of non-heterosexual people – submitting that this group should be viewed as a ‘minority group’ and that this should be reflected in the concept-draft to the UN meeting on November 11.

Dr Roodt however continued the Afrikaner-rights debate, pointing to the example of the voting-districts’ demarcation of the Pretoria municipality by Dr Michael Sutcluffe as a ‘prime example of discrimination and suppression of minority groups’ where primarily Afrikaner-suburbs were cut up and added to black-majority-voter suburbs to guarantee an ANC-majority vote in those new voting districts.

This raised the ire of Mrs Nkaro Mateto, senior manager of the Independent Electoral Commission – who said that she was a member of this demarcation commission for the Pretoria region – and that the purpose of the voting-district demarcations had not been to ‘discriminate’ against Afrikaners, but rather to ‘integrate’ them.

“Integration is just another word for forced assimilation and genocide…”

Dr Roodt replied to Mrs Mateto’s claim by noting that in his view, “integration was just an euphemism for forced assimilation”:

• “There are three ways to commit genocide,” he said: (1) “through ethnic cleansing, for instance by driving Afrikaners from the country through a variety of laws barring Afrikaners (from public life); (2) by forced assimilation and through violence.
• “And all of these elements already exist in South Africa (targeting the Afrikaner minority).’

Then the Human Rights Commission chairman angrily replied that, “as a Sotho whose ancestral lands were taken away before 1930 he, as a member of the black majority, was not prepared to make any kind of concessions to the civil rights of the Afrikaner minority.”

During the afternoon-session, the chief editor of the Department of foreign affairs’ human-rights and humanitarian affairs, Pitso Montwedi, also denied Dr Roodt’s claim that the official apartheid-era death-rate was 900 people, saying this was ‘a lie” . Dr Roodt then asked that ‘the true apartheid-era political death rates’ be published, since these he had quoted, came directly from the SA Truth and Reconciliation Commission.

“Hundreds of thousands of blacks were killed by Afrikaners during Apartheid…”

An Indian academic from the University of the Witwatersrand, Prof Ayesha Kajee and South African head of the International Human-rights exchange programme,  then suffered an extraordinary anger-outburst, screaming that ‘hundreds of thousands of blacks were killed by Afrikaners during apartheid’, and that ‘Dr Roodt can’t establish fact from fiction.’

• Dr Roodt replied: “don’t believe your own propaganda.”
• Throughout the conference, all the Afrikaner delegates submitted point-by-point criticisms of the concept-report placed before the conference delegates for ‘final approval”. This document would then be tabled as representative of the entire SA population’s opinion at the  11 November UN Human Rights Commission meeting in Geneva.

Roodt and Duvenage submitted to the meeting that they would be drawing up a minority-opinion report which would be tabled together with the official government version – and that they would be calling on all Afrikaner organisations to help draw up such a minority report – and which would be submitted to the 11 November meeting.

Dr Roodt concluded that “from this meeting it also becomes clear – judging from the recriminations and accusations flying amongst the delegates – that the issue of minority rights in South Africa is an explosive situation.”

Dr Roodt’s interviews – conducted in English and Afrikaans – about this conference, have thus far not been published by the SABC. http://www.praag.co.za/nuus-magazine-402/afrikaanse-nuus-magazine-401/6164-vonke-spat-by-minderheidskonferensie.html#
