Boer genocide in South Africa

Postby Rhodisia » Sun Sep 28, 2014 5:39 am

The daily escalation of murders in and around South Africa has drawn recognition from International groups seeking a solution for this crisis. The term genocide is the deliberate killing of large groups of people of a particular race or ethnic group. The country’s whites are the victims of racial killings spiraling out of control. The pointless and often brutal slayings have no agenda or motive by the attackers and often it is the innocent, elderly, and young who become victims.

...

Their claim of genocide includes the murders of farmers, men women, and children who have been tortured, raped, and then killed. It is estimated that since 1994 over 70,000 whites have been murdered in cruel and often horrifying ways. The murder rate is four times higher than that of the general population.

Original article is located here.

Apartheid was indeed terrible for the majority of South African blacks, but in my mind, that is not an excuse for what essentially amounts to genocide against Boers. Genocide, perpetrated by anyone, is barbaric and uncivilized.

Ethnic genocide is something I am against but I hope this thread doesn't derail into typical White Nationalist slogan bullshit.
For so long, Mankind has been plagued by division. Division by culture, creed, skin color, religion and nationality. These very divisions have been the cause of most human conflicts. But in the age of globalism, we can finally have that chance to implement a world government where all human beings are seen as equals. Isn't that what everyone wants? World peace? I do. You should support that too. It may not end all conflicts, but the reductions of Man on Man violence will be at an all time low when the entire planet gets administered by one governing body.

It's a dreadful moment when the white nationalists can say "See I told you so" in a serious manner. Does it mean that the white nationalists are good? Hell no. Does it prove their concerns are real? Yes... Hopefully South Africa can find a way to stop these murders from happening in the future otherwise it strengthens the arguments of white nationalists on an international scale.

It's only 10 or so post in, and the strawman is already up. GG. Mother must be proud. You shouldn't touch that thing, he's dirty from hanging out with those bomb-throwing anarchists. *nods*

Anyways, this is obviously bad. If it becomes a full-blown genocide on the scale of Rwanda (God forbid) the UN better get on that biz.

I don't believe anybody has ever used past atrocities as an excuse for Mugabe's regime or any form of violence against whites for that matter. Are we all supposed to be crowing about how bad this is? I don't see what else there is to discuss...
Yes.

They did so in Rhodesia... the UN only responded to the Serbs when Bosnians ran into the landmines in the Republika Srpska and Kosovar Albanians started to hide in Hoxha's bunkers in Albania.

Of course it's deliberate, and of course it's based on race, and the intention is to drive whites away, and therefore it is genocide. The tricky bit is that it's not a genocide being committed by a state, but by several different nations within a multinational state against one other nation within the same multinational state. What makes it even more difficult to address is that attacks with a racial or otherwise ethnic basis are not limited to attacks on whites. Immigrant groups in South Africa, especially other Sub-Saharan immigrant groups, have also been made pariahs and attacked from all sides. They've been expelled from towns, raped, robbed and lynched in a targeted manner, similar to the pogroms of the past.

Why not?

- People are being murdered, raped and expelled from land which, in many cases, has been theirs for generations.
- There is a distinct racial component to these murders, with perpetrators beloning to black African groups and victims belonging to white African groups.
- There is political rhetoric and there are messages in the media condoning or even promoting this behaviour.

In literally any other case, or at least any other case not involving white people as victims, this would have been called a genocide ten years ago.
But they're white, and therefore they will not be helped until it's far too late, and our governments will remain cordial with the African National Congress.

The reason Occidentals get so much flak is because they care about the deluded ravings of SJW and have been repeatedly told that if they don't, innocent people will be killed. If they went to, say, Indonesia and told them to pay compensation for the massacres in 1965 and 1966 the government would tell them to fuck off.
