White South Africans Doomed

South Africa’s parliament has voted in favour of a motion that will begin the process of amending the country’s globalist constitution to allow for the seizure of white-owned land without compensation.

The motion, brought by Julius Malema, leader of the radical Marxist opposition party the Economic Freedom Fighters, was passed overwhelmingly by 241 votes to 83 against. The only parties who did not support the motion were the Democratic Alliance, Freedom Front Plus, Cope and the African Christian Democratic Party.

The motion was amended but supported by the ruling African National Congress and new president Cyril Ramaphosa, who made land expropriation a key pillar of his policy platform after taking over from ousted PM Jacob Zuma earlier this month. According to Bloomberg, a 2017 government audit found white people owned 72 percent of farmland in South Africa.

ANC rural affairs minister Gugile Nkwinti says, “The ANC unequivocally supports the principle of land expropriation without compensation. There is no doubt about it; the land shall be taken without compensation.”

Thandeka Mbabama from the Democratic Alliance party said that expropriation without compensation, the ANC has been gifted the perfect scapegoat to explain away its own failure,” she said in a statement.

“Making this argument lets the ANC off the hook on the real impediments, corruption, bad policy and chronic underfunding. Expropriation without compensation would severely undermine the national economy, only hurting poor black people even further.”

Pieter Groenewald, the leader of the Freedom Front Plus party representing the white Afrikaner minority, asked what would happen to the land once it was expropriated.

“If you continue on this course, I can assure you there is going to be unforeseen consequences that are not in the interest of South Africa,” he said.

Mr. Malema has been leading calls for land confiscation, forcing the ANC to follow suit out of fear of losing the support of poorer black voters. In 2016, he told supporters he was “not calling for the slaughter of white people‚ at least not for now”.

Civil rights groups accuse the EFF and ANC of inciting on-going attacks on white farmers characterized by extreme brutality, rape, and torture. Last year, more than 70 people were slaughtered in more than 340 such attacks.

Ernst Roets, deputy chief executive of civil rights group Afriforum, said the parliamentary motion was a violation of the 1994 agreement in which the ANC promised minority interests would be protected post-apartheid.

“This motion is based on a distorted image of the past,” Mr. Roets said in a statement. “The term ‘expropriation without compensation’ is nothing more than racist theft.”

He earlier hit out at “simply deceitful” claims that white people who own land necessarily obtained it by means of oppression, violence or forced removals.

“The EFF view on redistribution is merely a racist process to chase white people off their land and establish it within the state,” he said. “This is not only deceiving, but also a duplication of the economic policies that the world’s worst economies put in place.”

Earlier this month, Louis Meintjes, president of the farmers’ group the Transvaal Agricultural Union, warned the country risked going down the same route as Zimbabwe, which plunged into famine after a government-sanctioned purge of white farmers in the 2000s.

“Where in the world has confiscation without compensation coupled to the waste of agricultural land, resulted in foreign confidence, economic growth, and increased food production?” Mr. Meintjes said.

“If Mr. Ramaphosa is set on creating an untenable situation, he should actively create circumstances which will promote famine. His promise to seize land without compensation sows the seed for revolution. Seizure without compensation is theft”.

Needless to say, Western newspaper, television and radio journalists, church and political elite, who campaigned relentlessly for the ANC and race equality in South Africa are notable by their absence. The white self-haters got what they fought for, the extinction of their own kind.
