Brings back good memories from your own high profile country eh Halo? SA has not progressed that far yet, it's just good 'ol fashioned stuff, bullets and burning tyres, thank goodness.

What will you do if the Asian students or the Muslim community in Australia starts to riot again? Phew, and you thought you got it right this time, you fled to a country where the darn fauna is kept under control!

Well, Africa is finished, as you said, most of the wealthy British and Jewish "entrepreneurs" curiously fled just before or shortly after Mandela, maybe they knew something the ordinary, gullible South African did not? Their huge exodus at this significant time did conflict with their Nation being branded as "non racist", they protested for so long against oppression, so when the dream became reality, they fled??

One wonders how the wealthy rats that jumped ship at this time got their millions out the country. SA has very strict exchange control, maybe there is a different set of rules for "entrepreneurs" as opposed to the gullible South African?

I recall an incident, a white woman, caught in an uprising near one of the SA Townships, yelling "Please don't shoot me I am English"

They elect to live in a British colony, fully reaping the benefits of Apartheid, yet their Mother country institued sanctions and motivated protests and marketing campaigns against SA Racism?

How shall we pick ourselves up with this vital, skillful part of our society gone?

Jozi Joe, you are trying very hard to get a reaction and failing.
South Africans won the Boer war, it just took them from 1902 to 1960.
By the looks of it you are into the whole illuminati/Rothchilds/oppenheimer/Semitic thinghie.
People go where they can make money.
You are'nt going to get reparations or acknowledgement for Kitcheners Scorched Earth policies anymore than Col Saunders is going to apologise to a Chicken.

The victims from the Boer War concentration camps will tend to disagree with you.

Not sure what you are referring to here, no, I just ask questions because I'm looking for answers, non hypocritical answers! (like the one about Ghandi being racist). Questions that have remained unanswered since I was born into a country with declared racism and now, as an immigrant in a country that practices undeclared racism (voluntary segregated lives). I just want to know why Southern Africa was so intensely branded as the world's racists, totally out of context with much worse human rights atrocities committed outside the African continent? Just trying to make sense of it all, is that a sin on this Forum?

Your biased opinions and Halo's declaring everything as crap without reasoning is also failing. For me it is not a quest of failing or winning points on a Forum, I'm hunting for the truth, and I have yet to find it...

"The victims from the Boer War concentration camps will tend to disagree with you."
Like my Oupa and Ouma grooitjie? And my Oupa's sister who died of Diptheria in the Camp?

As to the rest of your quest for answers, the answer was " Because they could do so and get away with it"

Its like asking the Mongols to apologise for Ghenghis Khan.
South Africa and the Nats in particular did create most of todays problems in SA.
Apartheid was created by the Brits,but perfected in Law by the Nats.
And they did'nt let go until they were forced to.

I don't know where you or Halo get the idea that I want an apology or acknowledgement, what good will an apology do those that are being slaughtered in Southern Africa? That is not the same thing as taking responsibility for your actions!

Furthermore, nobody is denying that the Afrikaner Nationalists, who came to power in 1948, inherited the system later known as Apartheid and fully manipulated it to their own advantage for profit. (Monkey see, Monkey do). It would be ludicrous and hypocritical to try and deny that! The British propaganda and marketing machine ensured that the world knew all about the sins of the Afrikaner Nationalists!

Really Daxk? Well, I guess that just solves everything, go ahead Southern Africa, destroy everything just because you can get away with it. (Once again, Monkey see, Monkey do style?)

Ironically, it's the innocent still resident in Southern Africa that are paying the price! The true *******s of Apartheid made their exodus just before the release of Mandela, taking their riches with them.

Quote:
The Dry Harts cemetery contains hundreds of graves, all dating from 1901 and 1902. But the names on the gravestones belong not to Afrikaners, but to black Africans.

These stones are the evidence of a forgotten British crime.

Quote:
The British and Afrikaners had a monopoly over South African history - and neither group had an interest in promoting knowledge about the African camps.

Gravestones
The gravestones suggest a re-evaluation of the past is needed
The British were presumably ashamed, whereas emotive Afrikaner accounts left no room for the suffering of other people.

Professor Fransjohan Pretorius, of the University of Pretoria, is perhaps the foremost Afrikaner expert on the war.

"The suffering in the Afrikaner camps was used to foster Afrikaner nationalism" he says, "which meant that when the National Party came to power in 1948 they directed their feelings of dominance towards the indigenous people of this country".

The origins of at least some of the injustices suffered by black South Africans can be traced to the Anglo-Boer War.
Quote:
Many South Africans hope that a re-evalution of the past, and a recognition that all peoples suffered in a terrible war, can lead to a more harmonious future.
I think white South Africans have done their bit, time for the British to take their turn!

Riots? Which specific riot are you talking about? There are many issues involved here so please doing bring out your huge brush.

You seem to have a big old chip on your shoulder..... but I suppose we can't all be rational and objective.

PS Nobody FLED/RAN etc.... It's called migration and its generally done for better prospects (you should know that).

I was tempted to delve into another British colonial anomaly I don't quite understand but you are right, it's beyond the scope of this thread.

If querying hipocrisy is classified as having a chip on your shoulder, then yes, I do.

If you migrated for better prospects, I envy you. I fled/ran because of the fear of unemployment and a government that now practises aggressive racism in reverse. I am in exile, you are an immigrant.
