The African National Congress (ANC) have experienced its biggest loss
in this election, yet have managed to secure the confidence of the
majority. The majority who have given the ANC a vote of confidence are
the South African unemployed youth, and a disillusioned population who
trust the promises of a better life, prosperity, free houses and free
services from the Zuma administration. The masses believe the lies of
the corrupt government. It is the voters who are to blame for allowing
the corruption to continue.
Zuma we cannot forget was the head of the intelligence for the most
notorious department within the ANC during 1987 until 1993. A unit that
used harsh methods to enforce discipline. Zuma is also a president who
instills fear into the masses. During the election campaign, Zuma had a
lot to say about the ancestors, apartheid, and offering everything for
free. Zuma knew the masses would believe the promises; it was all
repetitive; he has done it before. Zuma knows how to dis-empower the
ordinary citizens.
The people live in shacks, remain unemployed, live in poverty and
filled with anger. The people do not care if the president lives in a
mansion, or if government officials have a home in each province. The
people do not care if there is running water and electricity, and that
the government steals all the money, all the people want is everything
for free. The people continue to protest, burn down the almost
non-existent infrastructure believing that there will be change. They
are fooled, nothing will change; they will now have to live with even
less.
There is no party loyalty; there is only ignorance. The masses do not
blame Zuma for the diseased state of existence. The ignorant masses
know that Zuma is the head of a dishonest regime, yet they choose to
ignore the ANC manifesto. Crime, murder, and theft are widespread in
South Africa. Land issues remain a constant concern, and the slow
growing economy is not keeping up with the population growth. Problems
that the Zuma administration has ignored.
Zuma’s strength lies in the fact that he has a massive loyal
population of rural blacks and tribal colonies. Zuma keeps the masses
institutionalized in racism, forces the inequality between wealthy and
poor, and unemployment and poverty. Only the ANC can solve this problem,
yet they selected not to but rather keep the apartheid story alive and
keep the fear in the hearts of the masses. Now the majority who have
voted for the ANC are the ones who will continue to live in poverty.

Nine gruesome farm attacks that shocked South Africans
Nowhere in the world have people being brutally attacked and murdered
by black attackers like white farmers in South Africa. It is reported
that every 17 hours for the last five years, a white person was either
attacked or murdered by black in their homes. Between January 2010 and
January 2015, more than 2 500 violent attackers by blacks against whites
were registered. 2008 of the whites were tortured to death and suffered
mental torture by being forced to watch the gang-rape of their wives
and daughters.
Below is a recollection of some of the bloodiest, cruel murders against farmers who died at the hands of merciless murderers who savagely bludgeoned innocent people, including children.
WARNING SOME OF THE IMAGES ARE NOT FOR SENSITIVE VIEWERS
Farm Murder 1
During 2011 – Andre (Brood) van der Merwe (49) was shot four times on his farm by black attackers, tied with barbed wire and dragged behind his bakkie, while still alive, for 1.5 kilometers. He died from his injuries sustained during the torture.
Farm Murder 2
During 2015 the Swanepoel couple were tied to a single bed and tortured for hours. The black attackers took turns to rape Rienie, and her husband was forced to watch. They then shot Toon in the leg because he was fighting back. Toon was later shot dead. Rienie was then made to lie on her husband’s body before she was killed.
Farm Murder 3
In 2010, the shocking Potgieter farm massacre horrified South Africans. Forty-year-old Attie Potgieter was attacked by a gang of six blacks when he arrived home. The attackers chopped the back of his head with a machete and stabbed him over 150 times, with a garden fork. He died from the injuries sustained in the attack. In an execution style, the gang shot his wife, Wilna, aged 36 in the back of her head at close range. The gang shot the three-year-old child Willemien in a similar fashion. The gang left a message scribbled in Sotho on the gate saying “We killed them, we are coming back.”
Farm Murder 4
What happened to the Fourie family in 2011 is inhuman and the most awful story. John aged 77, and his wife Bina aged 76 died a horrendous death at the evil hands of a four-man black gang in 2011. The couple were shot in the knees and tortured for about seven hours. The criminals took John to the bathroom, and shoved a showerhead down his throat, then poured boiling water down his throat. At point blank range they shot his skull off. Meanwhile, his wife, Bina, was shot three times in the knees and her back and left to die from loss of blood.
Farm Murder 5
In 2012 a three-man black gang broke into a family home and gang-raped the mother, Geraldine aged 42, and then shot her dead. The gang attacked her husband; Tony aged 53 with a golf club before shooting him in the head. Their son, 12-year-old Amano was killed in a gruesome manner, the attackers, tied his feet and hands, filled a bath with boiling water and drowned him. The family dog did not escape the merciless killers; they ripped the dog’s stomach open with a machete. Fortunately, their daughter Gabriela was not at home and escaped death.
Farm Murder 6
Five Xhosa speaking men wielding machetes, knives and a pickaxe handle attack a farmer and his family in 2014. The farmer is neutralized by being beaten, stabbed and hacked. Two of the black attackers, while laughing, urinate on the helpless farmer. He was then forced to watch the brutal gang rape and murder of both his eight-year-old daughter and his wife before the men rape him. The attackers then cut his tendons, to prevent him from following them, and left.
Farm Murder 7
Johan Strydom (40) attacked on his farm by three attackers. He is chained to his bakkie and dragged behind it. The court hears that he was “probably alive” before being dragged and died of a burst liver and cracked skull. A journalist had quoted one of the perpetrators as saying he was “proud of what he had done.” This same offender was arrested a month earlier for trying to kill another farmer but was released.
Farm Murder 8
One of the cruelest and bloodiest murders was that of a mother and daughter who died at the hands of black attackers. The police report stated.
Miss Lotter (57) was found with all her front teeth bashed out and her entire body covered with bruises, chafing and stabbing wounds. She was sexually assaulted and mutilated, with a broken beer bottle, in her anus and vagina, so badly that parts of her uterus and cervix (womb) were missing. She’d been assaulted with a sharp object and the injuries were so extreme that the medical examiner was unable to tell if she’d also been raped by the two men, one of them her gardener. Her mother Alice (76) had been stabbed in the neck and throat and had drowned in her own blood. The slogan “Kill the Boer” was daubed in the women’s blood on the farmhouse walls.
Farm Murder 9
Dan Knight was violently killed on the eve of his 56th birthday. Beth Bucher was forced to watch as her partner Dan Knight, a timber harvester, was bludgeoned to death by five black attackers with hammers at their Underberg home. His face and skull were beaten to a bloody pulp with hammers and a monkey-wrench.

Malema is facing a hard-hitting test as popularity fades
Today, Julius Malema is facing a hard-hitting test and as the early
results show that the Economic Freedom Fighters will not have an
outright win of any municipality, although Limpopo might be an
exception. Coalitions might be an option with both the African National
Congress (ANC) and the Democratic Alliance (DA), but who will Malema
want to form an alliance with?
Before and during the election campaign Malema has not said anything good about the President and the ANC ruling party, but should he choose to form a coalition it would mean that actually the EFF is reuniting under the umbrella of the ANC. It would mean that Malema might be offered a ministerial position within the ANC and promote the corrupt party for all eternity.Malema might not want to form a coalition with the DA; it would not suit his communist ideology.
The good governance and no corruption from the DA would be a task Malema would not be able to cope with, and he would know that the DA will not tolerate underhanded people. A coalition with the DA will not work for the EFF as the supporters will trickle back to the ANC who offer those free services, money, and houses. However much the supporters of the EFF might realize the ANC will not deliver they will feel at home amongst the corrupt leaders.
In spite of everything, Malema might continue to travel the political road without any coalition and focus on educating the masses ahead of the national elections. Should the ANC not deliver on their election promises, Malema might be able to convince, the ANC supporters who are led by the nose of the ANC that it is nothing but an empty shell, with no hope for the poor. Perhaps Malema has another agenda; he did say he would remove the ANC government.

Abused White Woman Will have Foot Amputated -UPDATE
It has been over a year that I have not posted the update but have
decided to tell the story.
At Mother Theresa Home |
Today,
Natasha is a new person, a different person, a woman trying to come to terms
with the loss of a limb. Yes, Natasha
had to undergo the amputation of her leg just above the knee. It has been a
dramatic time or her and those who were with her during this life
changing situation.
Day after amputation |
If you read the story published around the end of June last year, you
would have known that Natasha was in the hospital,
and there was deliberation on what would happen to the foot that turned gangrenous.
(Abused White Woman Will have FootAmputated)
Natasha was transferred to the Johannesburg General Hospital and
underwent the operation; she was transferred back to the South Rand Hospital where she spent two months
recuperating. During this time, we
managed to locate her family who was
genuinely concerned and visited her
promising to take care of her. Her
father promised to take her home and support her. There was a resounding amount
of support from friends who willingly donated a wheelchair, clothing, and food. Natasha was happy;
she found her family.
At South Rand Hospital |
During August 2015 her father took her home. He lived in a one-bedroom flat,
with his second wife and her daughter. The
lounge area was a bedroom, and Natasha shared this with her father. At this time, she could not walk, had a lot
of pain and depended on the family to help her bath, get dressed and eat. It was
here that her amputated leg developed an infection,
and she was taken back to the
hospital. The six weeks she spent with
her father was traumatic, and caused friction between
the family. I visited her occasionally and did not know what to do; everybody was complaining. The family could
not cope and so one day, the stepmother
took Natasha to the Welfare offices and left here there. Since then we have
never heard from her father, he just vanished.
wound infected |
It was in September that the Welfare placed her in a home In
a black township in Vosloorus. Natasha was unhappy, had no medication and
isolated. Natasha was sick; her leg was not healing and in need of
desperate medical attention. The sister
at the home said she had to go back to the South Rand Hospital. It was arranged, and Natasha was back where it all
started.
At Vosloorus home |
Abandoned outside hospital |
At the South Rand Hospital, the staff
refused to treat her and banned her from
entering the building. She was homeless sitting outside the South Rand Hospital
waiting for help. The hospital refuse to treat her because her father removed her from the
hospital before she was discharged. Thus
the reason she was not given medicine when she left.
Sitting in a wheelchair, holding a bag of clothing, Natasha was once again homeless. It was hot, the middle of summer and nobody wanted to help her. I had to ask the security guards to watch her until we got some help. I phoned the Democratic Alliance (DA), the official opposition party and spoke to a counselor, who was willing to help. I was so thankful. The DA counselor went to the hospital and took Natasha to a home in the South of Johannesburg. From there she was placed in the Mother Theresa Home, in Yeoville, east of Johannesburg.

From there she was placed in the Mother Theresa Home, in Yeoville, east of Johannesburg.
It was at the Mother Theresa home that Natasha
really cared for. The sisters were wonderful, got her back to the hospital
where she received proper medical attention. Natasha had medication, a clean
bed to sleep in and food to eat. It was here that she learned to walk using a walker
and then using crutches. The sisters helped her get a disability grant and for
the first time, Natasha had her own money. It was here that Natasha experienced
love and acceptance.
At Mother Theresa Home |
Natasha spent the last few months at
the home growing and loving life. For the
first time in years, Natasha had the
opportunity to unburden the past and find stability. During this time, her mother often went to visit, and a decision was taken for Natasha to
leave the home and live with her mother.
Unfortunately, Natasha did not know how to live outside the caring environment of
the home and soon got up to mischief. It was no problem for her to get out of
the house, walking with her crutches land up in the dark parts of town and
become a victim of abuse. Her poor
mother was finding this tough as a single
parent who had to work to pay the rent, was stressed about the wondering
Natasha.
Together we phoned the sisters at the home, and they agreed that Natasha could
return. Yesterday, her mother took her
back to the Mother Theresa home. Now we keep praying that she will once again,
learn to accept that life on the streets is difficult, horrible and dangerous.
At Mother Theresa Home |
In closing,
I still maintain that Natasha has spent her entire life alone, abandoned and traumatized.
She has never had any formal education or love from family. Her whole life has
been one of survival and intimidation.
Rejection does have serious consequences,
and however much Natasha has messed up her life, I still believe that her
traumatic childhood, the rape, the drug lords,
and abandonment have affected her
mentally. She really does not understand
the severity of the situation. She does not know how to survive anymore. She is
shoved from one place to another, rejected, abused and mentally incapable of
knowing the difference between right and wrong. is. She is like a child, lost
and alone.

The ANC fear will not allow change in South Africa
South Africans should vote for the lesser of the evils. The citizens, if they understand, should keep the politicians on their toes and not allow them to become comfortable in their greed and corruption.
The voters are not going to vote for change; they are filled with fear, the African National Congress (ANC) fear. The fear of losing a black government, the fear of being under the rule of the white man. It is total stupidity, a lack of knowledge, and ignorance; there are not even four million white in the country, and the majority, the 50 million plus still have an immense fear of white people. It is the ignorance of the majority that boggles the mind; it is the idiocy of a president who promotes hatred that is confounding. Will the minority ever understand why they are so feared?
In the meantime, the people are still annoyed, angry and impatient. The people are destructive, want change and believe that the only way change will come is to burn down everything. Protests have spread across the country over the last few months and continue. A few hours before the voting stations would open, frustrated youths burnt down two voting tents in the Siyaya, Freedom Park area, (near Eldorado Park). The people in this area have been without electricity for the past few days and resorted to burning down the voting tents in an attempt to voice their grievance.
