Jacob Zuma het die grondgryppandora tydens die ANC se beleidskonferensie uit die kis gelaat en nou is dit vasgord vir die land se Blankes ten einde 'n herhaling van Robert Mugabe se Groot Grondmahala in ons eie land te stuit. Moet u nie laat verstrik in al die nuttelose argumentjies en geredekawel deur links joernaliste en geleerdes oor al die implikasies en versteekte implikasies van Zuma se aankondigings nie, u persoonlike hef-aan in hierdie saak lê voor. Die tyd vir groot eise aan u en u naasbestaandes se vryheid – u veiligheid, soos u seker lankal weet, is lankal opgeoffer – het aangebreek. Moenie glo dat die Swart menigtes gaan wag vir een of ander aankondiging deur Zuma of sy verteenwoordiger van die Parlement of die Uniegebou se trappe af nie. Wat van nou af in die vooruitsig is is dat die fokus van die Swartes wat openbare geweld oor gebrekkige munisipale dienste betref sal verskuif na die fisieke besetting van grond.

Michel Chussodovsky, skrywer van hierdie artikel wat op Global research verskyn het, se probleem daarmee gaan oor die Geldmagbetrokkenheid en hy hou Mandela wat in die geldmag se sak was, vir die verwikkeling verantwoordelik.

This article was first published in French in the Monde diplomatique in April 1997.  It was subsequently published in the African Journal of Political Economy and in the author’s book: The Globalization of Poverty and the New World Order. The policy of land expropriation in Mozambique leading to the establishment of White Afrikaner farms using indentured Mozambican farm workers had the support of the ANC government. It also had the personal blessing of President Nelson Mandela “who had delegated Mpumalanga Premier Matthews Phosa to the SACADA Board of Governors. Premier Phosa, a distinguished ANC politician and among the most prosperous black businessmen in Mpumalanga province (East Transvaal), contributed to laying the political ground work for the expansion of White Afrikaner business interests into neighbouring countries. 

Die AVP het hierdie artikel ontvang en beklemtoon net weer die feit dat ons nie noodwendig saamstem met alles wat in aangehaalde artikels gesê word nie. Terme soos: “the legendary humanitarian. the great man . The man who was the legend is really, officially, gone and an entire nation is in mourning.”, is beslis nie AVP terme wanneer die terroris Mandela ter sprake is nie, Nog minder is dit waar dat, “an entire nation is in mourning”. Afrikaanssprekendes wat daarmee saam stem is bepaald nie Afrikaners in die ware sin van die woord nie. Ware Afrikaners rou wel oor die onmeetlike verlies wat ons gelei het asgevolg van die verraad waarin Mandela gebruik is om die Afrikaner te benadeel. Nietemin is daar baie interessante inligting in die artikel, veral die gedeelte oor die Chinese betrokkenheid.

South Africa is a state of politics, crime, commerce and lies. There is also a pervading sense of unease and fear. This sense or feeling is just under the eyeline; a crawling on the back of the neck that warns of something bad just waiting to happen. While walking or driving down the streets of certain cities; Joburg for one; the feeling of impending attack is almost palpable. Residents have learned to live with this underlying feeling of destruction. So much so that my hosts were almost surprised at the account of my stay. Living behind walls can be dealt with like any other uncomfortable thing in life. South African people are, if nothing else, adaptable. The good people who gave me shelter during my stay had adapted to locking themselves in at night. This atmosphere was perfect for selling the world lies about Madiba’s health and death.
