Gandhi’s Historical View of South Africa Segregation

Gandhi, a wise man and in particular closely related to the South African segregation policies formed in the country had much to say about this racist element. Gandhi a humble human being with a history of placing the interests of his people first did an admirable job to protect the rights of Indians in South Africa.
 
Janie Smuts, the Prime Minister of South African during the early 1900s, was closely associated with Gandhi, they both shared many views and had their disagreements about segregation. Gandhi fought for the right of the Indian people and his opinion regarding the black South Africans was at times critical but honest.
 
Smuts had a condescending view of Africans; he saw them as immature human beings that needed the

guidance of whites, an attitude that reflected the general perceptions of most non-Africans in his lifetime. Gandhi fought for the Indian people not to be treated at the same level as native Africans. Gandhi believed the white people of South Africa should be and remain the predominating race.

On one, hand, Janie Smuts said the black children of nature do not have the persistence or inner toughness of the European people. They do not have the social and moral incentives to progress. Gandhi, the civil rights activist, remained angry with segregation laws and continued his plight for the Indian community to gain a better standing within the boundaries of South Africa. He equated the intelligence of the Indians to the Whites. After years of struggle, the Indians during the apartheid years gained a more prominent role in society.

Gandhi said his struggle was against the degradation inflicted upon the Indians by the European, whose desire was to humiliate them to the level of the raw native (at the time he used the K word, which is now banned in the country). The raw Africans he said practiced the occupation of hunting with the sole purpose of collecting a number of cattle to buy a wife and continue to live in indolence and nakedness. The Indians, he said, were raised in a more educated manner and comparing them to the raw African was disgraceful. There was, however, a general principle the Indians were more advanced than the savages of South Africa. 

Gandhi fought for the removal of blacks from Indian townships during his stay in South Africa. Black natives according to Gandhi were only one degree removed from an animal. He often used the K name and said they were uneducated, troublesome, dirty, and lived like animals.

Gandhi believed in the purity of races just as much as the South African government at that time did. The Indians, Gandhi said cherishes, more than anything else, the purity of their type.

During 2003, a statue of Mahatma Gandhi was unveiled in the city of Johannesburg to honor his fight for segregation during the early history of South Africa. The unveiling sparked a trigger of anger among some black communities who remembered the civil rights activist’s hatred of black people. A media report detailing the events of the unveiling received a flurry of comments from indigent readers who attacked his racist's views of blacks, who were lazy savages and barely human. Comment posted, revealed that Gandhi had no love for blacks and ignored their sufferings. The new statue promoted painful recollections of Gandhi’s writings and observations about black people in particular.

During the early years, segregation of different ethnic groups was for the benefit of each ethnic group maintaining purity. A practice during the early years caused the deliberate destruction of institutions by blacks for the use of all races. Hence, Janie Smuts implemented a plan to create two separate institutions with territorial segregation. The new proposal would allow the different cultures to preserve their beliefs and live in purity.

Today, the years of struggle to keep different races confined in segregation have not altered the fact that ethnic and tribal conflicts will remain a part of South Africa. The white South Africans provided and uplifted the black people during the struggle years, by giving them a working infrastructure, education and social advancement. Degrading laws such as passbooks were abolished with time, and as education took precedence in the black townships, it remained an inexhaustible attempt to remove the primitive instinct inherited throughout the ages.

Tribal conflicts between the vast amounts of different ethnic groups are vastly underrated in South Africa. The ongoing black on black violence, xenophobia and savage attacks against their people remind the world of the primitive and uncivilized nature that cannot be removed.

South Africa today is a melting pot of racial conflict more dangerous than in the early 1900s, the savage hatred for white people spirals out of control. Farm murders, rapes and torture continuing to black out the future of the country. There is no justification for the high crime rates in South Africa, other than racial hatred.
The belief that apartheid or segregation was an evil dominant factor to undermine the black people of South Africa was nothing more than a misleading notion. The historical events of ongoing violence and ignorance between the racial divides cannot be blamed for the discrimination between ethnic groups. Racial hatred based on black people blaming the minority white group of citizens for injustices is an overplayed hand to intimidate and gain international support for a nation that will never be able to develop without the Europeans guidance. The world might take a back seat and agree with the black counterparts, by taking advantage of the low IQ levels to gain control over the South African resources that are solely based on greed.

Dog Rape and Animal Abuse in South Africa

A few months ago an article exposing the despicable and indecent demeanor to dogs and animals in South Africa was posted. Many people have responded with similar stories of abuse. The score of stories told is heart-breaking, demoralizing and sometimes to sickening to share.

https://hand4paws.wordpress.com/tag/animal-abuse/

Eastern Cape – the shocking revelation, dogs, goats, donkeys and chickens were subject to bestiality by school children as young as five were. King Williams Town Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (SPCA) have reported the incident to the South African Police and indicated that there is a sharp increase in animal abuse.

When the SPCA removes the abused animals, the perpetrators find other animals to abuse and so the continued inhuman behavior continues.

Social workers and SPCA employees labored with the children and families came to realize social problems of either using drugs, no adult supervision at homes or parents performing sexual acts in front of children caused the appalling behavioral patterns. Other issues of domestic violence and parents drunk or high affected the children and their behavioral patterns stem from insecure and unstable homes. Some of the children were removed and placed in foster care. An ongoing concern is that children who exploit abusive conduct toward animals can continue to display violence as they grow up.

Pietermaritzburg - Another incident of human violence harmed an African Grey parrot, when two people argued; the one pulled out a knife and stabbed the bird in its stomach. Then threw the bird onto the road, the bird was rescued by the SPCA. As a result, now has a permanent hole in its stomach causing continues bleeding problems and a twisted leg, as a consequence, from the hurl.

Kempton Park – A man in a foul mood took his frustrations out on the family pet, a Jack Russell, hit the dog with a broom, threw bricks and kicked the dog until it cried no more.

Pretoria – Different cultures have traditions that include animals in celebrations. Perhaps the way the animals are slaughtered raises a concern. On the side of the road, several people held onto a cow, which was slowly dehydrating and poked with a small knife to end its life. After several hours of torment, the cow dropped onto the ground and the people jumped on the animal to force the air from its body and started skinning the animal while still alive. Performing this act, in a public place without consideration for onlookers and quite happy to display their inhuman behavior.

In South Africa, the police do not always consider animal cruelty cases seriously. The SPCA bases this foundation on ignorance of understanding the law to protect animals.

The myth that a sexual encounter with an animal or a newborn human cures AIDS is just that a MYTH. Yet people remain ignorant to the fact that animals or children are the voiceless beings who deserve the best protection.

Welcome 2015 with Understanding

As 2014 comes to an end, do not look back at the long hard road traveled. Nearly everyone has probably passed over rough ground, fallen and has been hurt and cut. Do not dwell on the falling and tripping over and over again. It might be true that very few are at peace. Life is an inter-relationship of events, like waves on the ocean, moving, every moving – changing, never still, each one affecting the other, moment by moment.

2015 is a new year, a new beginning, and a new hope.

As the New Year brings with it new challenges, have the strength to stand where you are, give love in return for hurting. Give truth in exchange for deceit and give understanding to another’s failure. Remember you to have failed, injured and deceived somewhere along the road.

Let 2015 be a year to love and love again. 

After a while, you learn the subtle difference between holding a hand and chaining a soul

And you learn that love does not mean leaning and company does not mean security

And you begin to learn that kisses are not contracts and presents are not promises

And you begin to accept your defeats with your head up and your eyes open, with the grace of an adult, not the grief of a child

And you learn to build all your roads on today because tomorrow’ ground is too uncertain for plans

After a while, you learn that even sunshine burns if you get too much

So plant your own garden and decorate your own soul, instead of waiting for someone to bring you flowers

And you learn that you really can endure ... that you really are strong, and you really do have worth.

SOUTH AFRICA – A FAILED STATE

Historical Perspective Part II – from then until now

Continuing the series of articles in order to establish as to whether South Africa is a failed state and if so, then why from a historical perspective.

In “Kruger, Kommandos & Kak “by Chris Ash, he deals on a very level basis with the role of the Imperial Troops as well as the role of the “Burghers “: of the ZAR (Zuid Afrikaansche Republik) the Transvaal”. What he says is that every Afrikaans speaking person should start to research the history and not the drivel served up by the National Party (NP) Government.

Today this group of people is without leaders; as a matter of fact, the professed leaders are all tied into highly dubious deals.

Pik Botha, the highly contentious ex-Minister, F W De Klerk – the President at the time the ANC outwitted him and were equal dim-witted cabinet. They never knew as to what was happening in the outside world. They never understood that it was all about the money; politics was just the means to get the cash! This seems to have been the dogma from the London School of Economics.

It was very interesting when the late Frederik Van Zyl Slabbert recounted calling Thabo Mbeki by his first name. As recounted by himself in his writings, and they had known each other for a long time, that Mbeki pointed out that he was the President and that he should be called such. A real indication that a mere crumb was now thinking that he had become bread, for all the whiskey, womanizing and alleged drug abuse attributed to him.

In addition, that he was replaced by Pres Jacob Zuma, a Zulu of origin. Zuma and his Zulus have pushed South Africa into a state similar to that of a failed state. Zuma and Paul Kruger share many aspects, one of the most important aspects are that they had set out to control the Judiciary. It was recalled that Kruger intervened in the sentencing of a rogue by the name of Nellmapius. In Zuma’s case, his legal team was whacked in the Supreme Court of Appeal on the fact that they had no case. In order to delay proceedings in respect of the issue of the tape recordings, which was used to negate the more than 700 criminal charges for fraud against Zuma. However, who is paying for these expensive legal fees? Zuma? Not at all – the public. Despite South Africa having Legislation, such as the Public Finance Management Act, 1 of 1999 as amended. 

Somebody had to be held to account in the President’s office.  

However, massive silence!

Not from De Klerk, who it has been alleged had been involved in moving vast sums of money from the RSA pre-1994. To whose benefit? The Afrikaans-speaking South Africans, all South Africans? It does not seem so.

In addition, the Gaddafi moneys? For how long has it been in the RSA? It is a tale that ascribing it to Zuma is somewhat unfair. He is only at the tail end of what has been going on. According to sensitive sources in the ANC ( African National Congress,) President Barak Obama had called Zuma in November 2014. Zuma was advised that if the stolen Libyan moneys were not paid into the Trust Fund in the USA before end January 2015. Zuma and the ANC would face criminal charges at the International Crime Court. (ICC) Also, the fact that a substantial amount of this money had found its way to ISIS in Syria!

It is a severe allegation as it places all South African at risk because the government is run by the ANC and that the same ANC has now been implicated in these problems. Linking this allegation to the news reports from the country that over 4 000 Al Qaeda have been spotted in South Africa.

Pres Thabo Mbeki has case to answer in this regard. During his reign as President, he had employed the African Union (AU) in order to move the Gaddafi/Libyan moneys. In this regard, a Johannesburg Attorney was allegedly employed by Mbeki to move the Libyan funds. In this regard, Molefe had been traveling the world with an AU diplomatic passport. When going to the USA in order to confront Goldman Sachs on the Libyan moneys, he was faced with some ex-Special Forces types that send the fear of God into them, and he made a runner. However, Goldman Sachs lost a case against the USA government during 2014 and had to surrender USD 30 billion!  

According to what Molefe recounted to various people, all the documents relating to

this issue was handed to the Seriti commission who has been running an investigation into the Arms deal. According to Molefe, it was Mbeki’s idea to use the Libyan moneys as a guarantee with the British banks that had raised credit lines for the hugely inflated Arms deal. The Seriti commission has until the date not managed to instill any confidence into the general public pertaining to its investigations. Suffice it to state that until the time the Seriti commission has acted like a bunch of gangsters with their legal teams as their hit men. In this regard, Adv Moerane’s name springs to the front.

Any idea of democracy is nothing else but a sham. It is pure London School of Economics dogma. It never was about democracy and human rights; it was all but a sham. It has only been about the money. In the words of Smuts Ngonyama , first ANC, then COPE and now ANC again,“ I never joined the struggle to be poor”. It was after he garnered ZAR 120 million on a privatization deal of TELKOM - the previously state-owned telecommunications agency.

The RSA is indeed a gangster’s paradise. In 2013, some 200 South African troops found themselves in a very precarious situation in Bangui, Central African Republic (CAR). What were they doing there? When attacked by an overwhelming force of some 5000+ Seleka rebels who had ousted then President Bosize, they had to fight impossible odds to stay alive. This was due to some officers from the State Security Agency of the RSA and Defense Intelligence who were drinking on the terrace of the Hotel in Bangui, whilst compiling a report that the Selekas were only armed with AK47’s and wooden clubs. Little did they know that the President of Chad, France’s high man in Africa was financing the Selekas? After the fracas, the RSA contingent had to sign official documents to compel them to keep all aspects of the venture in Central African Republic (CAR) secret. A typical British action! Why? What was there to hide? The fact that several of the RSA comrades were up to their ears in dealings in CAR, including Mining, etc., etc.

Until today, nobody has been prosecuted in relation to this situation. Lives are cheap; Pres Zuma does apparently not give a tad about his soldiers’ lives.

What else?

TELKOM, the former state-owned telecoms entity and now partially owned by the state whilst listed on the JSE (Johannesburg Stock Exchange) has a company called TELKOM AFRICA. Through this company, they had bought all the bandwidth from satellite operators over Africa. It is not just for reselling; the fact of the matter is that they are using this to listen to all business and political issues via the RSA’s state resources. The information re business issues are circulated to a small group of so-called comrades. The London School of Economics is clearly at play here. The completely political claptrap was only designed for one simple reason, and that was to get their hands on the money.

Who are these people? Clearly many of them are embedded in the ruling ANC, this gives them cover and they can affect all of their nefarious actions in secrecy. The RSA even bought a Russian satellite. For whatever rhyme or reason, it is perhaps for the same as with TELKOM AFRICA. To eavesdrop on all business transaction primarily, is courtesy of the RSA taxpayer. The price of the satellite has been bandied about at ZAR 1, 6 billion. The fact of the matter is that the price would rather seem to be nearer to ZAR 5, 6 billion, i.e. USD 560 million.

The opposition is silenced with issues of secrecy, and since when is fraud and piracy secret? In the RSA context, it sure is!

 Moreover, when Patton so famously wrote, “Cry the beloved country,” he just had no idea!

The scoundrels, at all levels in civil life. In addition, the British influence. A story to will be dragged into the spotlight in a later piece.

Are you worried? If not, you should be ………………………………………

South African Union Advertisement Rejected

Solidarity Union of South Africa has a primary function to protect members in the work environment and help negotiate labor disputes. Solidarity is a union that strives to protect members irrespective of race, age, and gender.

The Solidarity Union recently approached the Digital Satellite Television (DSTV) Company to televise an advert on behalf of the union. Twice this year the advertisement was rejected and not broadcast.

DSTV was launched in 1995 and remains a popular television choice for most South Africans. The extensive coverage and channel selection makes DSTV the firm favorite for home entertainment.

A video clip hosted by Dr. Dirk Hermann tells the story of trying to screen the Solidarity Union advert and declared that DSTV gave no reason why it was disallowed. The advertisement is part of the video and Dr. Hermann has taken to social media to broadcast this short advertisement. Dr. Hermann asks that the public should use their own discretion and reach a conclusion about the ad.

Although the advertisement is in the Afrikaans language, the message is the primary objective of the union to look after its members. Several friends and family members have watched the advertisement and all reach the same conclusion that the entire cast was white and perhaps this is the reason for not viewing on national television.
