For all Dutch people who think Germans invented #concentrationcamps,
watch this video about South-Africa.
The British did it, along with #ScorchedEarth policy, in 1899.

In September 2017, 62-year-old Craig Smith, a longtime sugar-cane farmer on his farm 60 km's from Pietermaritzburg in Mid Illovo, was beaten to death in his rundown farmhouse.

Craig had suffered previous heart attacks and a severe stroke and was preparing to move closer to town for safety after years of his family's pleas. But intruders who had been staking out his home rushed him upon his return from town one evening. They forced him to open a safe, stole a few firearms and some jewelry, then tied his hands and feet with electrical cables and bludgeoned him to death with his own walking stick. Empty soft-drink cans from his fridge showed the killers casually drank in his living room before driving off in his car.

This kindhearted man who spoke Zulu fluently, had employed and cared for dozens of African farm-workers over more than 30 years, and even organized schooling for them and their children, was left to die in a horrific and undeserved end. Nothing justifies this savage brutality against White farmers.

The ANC government and figures like Julius Malema continue to ignore and downplay these farm attacks while White farmers are slaughtered on their own land.

TWO FAMILY TIED UP DURING FARM ATTACK NEAR PAARL

A farm attack and home invasion were reported near Ridgeback Winery in Agter Paarl last night, 3 June 2026, where a family was allegedly tied up and robbed by five men wearing balaclavas. The suspects reportedly invaded the property and carried out the robbery while concealing their identities.

Another farm invasion was also reportedly confirmed in the Stellenbosch area on the same night, although details surrounding that incident remain limited.

The report further highlighted several farm attacks and violent robberies recorded over the years in Paarl, Stellenbosch, and surrounding areas, noting that many involved armed suspects wearing balaclavas, victims being tied up or assaulted, and in some cases murders and theft of firearms. Authorities are expected to investigate the latest incidents.

He never chased the money or promotion but served his country well. On a low salary he never involved in corruption to supplement his salary. He was vindicated at the Madlanga commission. The public has seen his value even though employer never did

His name is Karl Sander.

Church Street bombing in Pretoria on 20 May 1983. This cowardly terrorist attack was carried out by uMkhonyo weSizwe.

The bomb killed 19 people, including the two MK fuckers involved in the attack, Freddie Shangwe and Ezekial Maseko. More than 200 people were injured.

At the time, the unit that planted the bomb reported to Joe Slovo, chief of staff of MK. The operation was authorised by Oliver Tambo. Amnesty was granted to ten of these fucking MK terrorists in 2000

Fuck MK and fuck the ANC🖕

[VIKING BOER @viking_boer]

Do yourself a favor and watch this gripping documentary of farm murders in South Africa.

It goes deep into the depths of hell and what is left in the families hearts after horrific farm murders.

@KTHopkins was one of the first activists to speak up about it and has opened so many eyes to what is happening to our people.

😔 Another brutal farm murder in South Africa. Last night (1 June 2026), farmer Hendrik Strooiberg was shot and killed in front of his wife during an attack on their smallholding in Kromdraai/Grootvlei, Pretoria North. The local farming community is devastated.
This is yet another Farm murder in a country where rural safety has collapsed.

Why does mainstream media largely ignore or downplay these attacks? Why does the government still refuse to officially recognize farm murders as a priority crisis?

Farmers feed the nation. They deserve protection, not silence.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Lex Libertas report reveals government officials calling for the murder of white people; requests parliamentary hearing

PRETORIA — The think tank and advocacy group, Lex Libertas today released a disturbing new report, ‘The Celebration of Murder in South African Online Discourse’, which finds that politically motivated hate speech and the incitement of murder directed at the white minority are becoming socially acceptable phenomena across major social media platforms in South Africa. The report predominantly analyses online responses following the assassination of American conservative activist Charlie Kirk in September 2025, but also references earlier cases. It reveals a worrying trend described by Lex Libertas as a ‘zeitgeist of euphoric-violence’. It further reveals multiple cases of government officials openly celebrating the death of white people, or actively calling for white people to be exterminated, sometimes in the most grotesque ways imaginable.

Among others, the following persons incited violence and were identified as past or present government officials based on their social media profiles:

- Lilly Pelle, Assistant Director at the North West Department of Education celebrated the murder of Charlie Kirk online.
- Rally Mohalane, employee of the Gauteng Department of Education posted a picture of the words ‘Kill all Charlie Kirks’.
- Xola Pama, an employee of the Department of Health, stated that white babies had to be killed and that the wives and sisters of white people had to be raped.
- Mduduzi Moffat Mumba, an employee of the Department of Employment and Labour stated that ‘all white persons that are fucken racist, starting with Steve Hoffmer and anyone that is associated with Afriforum’ (sic) had to be killed.
- Mveleli Mogolwane Gwabeni, a trainee at the South African Police Service stated that more farmers had to be murdered.
- Velaphi Khumalo, an employee of the Gauteng Provincial Government posted that ‘we’ (presumably the South African government) ‘must act as Hitler did to the Jews’ and that the country had to be cleansed of white people. Khumalo apologised and was reprimanded, but he still works for the South African government.

The study, based on nearly 150 public submissions, categorizes the severity of the online reactions and confirms that hatred and incitement are rife within South African online discourse.

Key Findings from the Lex Libertas Report:

- Celebration of Murder: 62% of collected responses were explicitly celebratory of Kirk’s death, featuring comments such as ‘he got what he deserved’ and graphic memes making fun of his murder.
- Incitement of Violence: 12% of responses involved explicit incitement of violence and included calls for public figures to be murdered.
- Institutional Concern: The report highlights that certain identifiable people working for government departments openly celebrate deaths or incite violence, demonstrating that this discourse is present across mainstream platforms and within state institutions.
- Double Standards: Lex Libertas attributes the unchecked nature of this hate speech to the government applying double standards in policing incitement and mainstream media reporting, which results in unequal enforcement of law based on the perpetrator's race.

‘The celebration of murder and the subsequent wave of violent online responses reveal a disturbing pattern: the social acceptance of hate-fuelled rhetoric that, when left unchecked, normalises, legitimises and encourages real-world violence,’ said Dr Ernst Roets, Executive Director of Lex Libertas. ‘The consequences are severe: weakened social cohesion, erosion of trust in public institutions, and heightened risk to targeted communities. This is a profound threat to the stability of the country.’

In response to these findings, Lex Libertas has announced a formal plan to challenge this trend. This included the following steps:

1. Parliamentary Hearing: Lex Libertas has formally requested that the Parliamentary Portfolio Committee on Police initiate a public hearing into the matter of the rise of online incitement and the celebration of violence in South Africa.
2. Employer Notification: Employers of individuals who openly encourage violence online will be informed of the conduct of their employees.
3. Public Reporting: Lex Libertas will continue to encourage members of the public to bring such cases to the institution's attention by visiting the website or by sending an email to [email protected].
4. Continued Research: Lex Libertas commits to publishing continued research on this matter.

The full report is shared below and can be accessed on the Lex Libertas website.

Lex Libertas is a think tank and advocacy group working towards a viable political dispensation in South Africa, based on the principles of freedom, decentralisation, and self-governance.

Every white farmer around the world should be recognized as an endangered species and protected by all governments worldwide.

Even though Wilmientjie and her parents were murdered in 2010 and Sakkie Verster in 2018 and Kosie Botha and Brendin Horner in 2020.. (just to name a few)
I will share their murders every single day if I have to.
No one should ever feel unsafe in their own country.
We as tax paying citizens should not roll over because we don't want to "upset" others. These murders are happening almost weekly.
Chanting for any race to be killed is inhuman!
No one has the right to sing songs about that. Especially not if the words to that "struggle song" gets written by the murderers in blood on the walls of those murdered!
