Like to pinpoint these news programs. Seems that it was on Friday 19 February 1988. I was doing basic training in the Air Force at the time. Obviously knew nothing about it.
O Beloved AFRIKANERS ^_^ I just wanna say how much I RESPECT *All* ladies of Boer origin......i got my first job thanks to the goodwill of an extraordinary Afrikaner woman here in Melb.......You GREAT Afrikaner women are exceedingly BEAUTIFUL, Intelligent, Talented, Creative, Kind, & Highly NOBLE by birth : as You're so SUPERIOR : You Afrikaner GALS are the OPPOSITE, the deadset OPPOSITE of those vulgar, UGLY, English women & any Kafir women & any Cooly women. Cheers from melb. aus!!
It's all to do with propoganda. Regimes use the media to report a news event in a different country that is similar to one in their own to try and give the public the impression that their own country is doing things in a similar way. In this case, the UK government was dealing strongly with the IRA, the SA government was dealing with various 'insurgents'. Basically, it is like a subtle threat to their own people.
Why did the channel go from a nature show in Afrikaans to an English newscast? What were the TV networks bilingual? And what sort of network leads into a national news broadcast with a program about monkeys anyways?
And what are those 80s-era Cable access channel chyron boards that break in unannounced at 2:09?
TV1's airtime was split between Afrikaans and Dutch. If I recall correctly, I would alternate on different days, so on one day from 6.00 to 8.30 it would be in Afrikaans and then 8.30 to 11.00 in English, and then the next day, it would be the other way round. It remained that way until 1996.
I remember that bomb blast in Windhoek. I was there, 6 years old, running to my window to see what was going on when I heard it. My mother was scared, I didn't understand at that time what was going on...

@batrazdemelburnia "Kafir", "Cooly"? So your quite openly racist are you? Unfortunately, for you that is, discrimination against people on the grounds of race has been determined as irrational by science and a great deal of people more intelligent than you- their conclusion being that concepts around race is irrational. Racists are delusional- they believe in the significance of something proven to be insignificant to ones character and behavior.
The Boers/Afrikaners are not solely of Dutch descent. There were many other nationalities that came to the mix including German, English, Scottish, Polish, Italian, Portuguese, French Huguenot, Irish, and more.
The Apartheid regime classified Afrikaners as any white people who spoke Afrikaans as a native language.
@stealthkiller2107 The most were Dutch, then the Germans and French Huguenots. Then British, there where not much east and south europeans (the Iberian countries had there own colonies to imigrate to and east europeans...... they didnt want to imigrate. there are very few east europeans who emigrated in the 17th century and they had no colonies. in the 19th there was a big boom of east europeans emigrating to america.
oh, its also hilarious to me that it took exactly 6 posts for some dirty people to start spewing racial slurs at one another...the video is just meant to be a look back into our shared history and possibly spur some interesting debate. no need to start flaming each other like that...
With all this talk about the IRA and such, I find it funny how the pro-British Protestant Unionists in Ulster got support from the White South African government and yet they hated the British. Even that old rump Ian Paisley was in favour of Apartheid in SA and Northern ireland. I guess Calvinism and bigotry trumps all else.
You might like to know that at the beginning of the last century, Irish nationalists and republicans sided with the Boers (now Afrikaners) who also wanted to break from the British Empire. It was only later on that the Irish became anti-apartheid and started calling themselves 'the Blacks of Europe', lol.
The AFrikaners are the Cape-Dutch, who stayed in the Cape when the British came. The Boers where the mostly Germans who trekked away to the Transvaal. The Boer wars are not the Afrikaner wars are they?
Boers means Farmer. Afrikaners are the same people just those living in the cities. some say afrikaner is the new term as our language is called afikaans
In western Germany (close to Belgium and the NL) the word for farmer is Bur(e). Bure is in high German the word for boer or a Afrikaans speaking white South African in general.
The term "Afrikaners" was 'marketed' by the likes of Jan Smuts and Louis Botha in an attempt to unify pro-british and anti-british boers after the South African/Anglo-Boer War. It is true to say the boers of the ZAR and OVS were more hard-line (those Republics did after all come into being as a result of an outflux of anti-british boers from the then Cape-Colony).
@Denizzje The word Afrikaner was increasingly used after 1902 without a connotation to a political sentiment. There is however no difference in modern times. I view myself as Boer even though both my grandfathers were german, one grandmother from Cradock (Cape) and the other Gran from PE (both boer/dutch). And I live in London.
Many 'Boers' were in fact first generation scottish, Irish and Dutch, german, Frisian, etc decent. President MT Steyn (of the OVS) was in fact english-speaking - the same as with his very pro-boer english-speaking grandson Colin Steyn (few Afrikaners are in fact even aware of this). Hence why some of my best friend - farm-boys speak attrocious english with surnames like Chatwind, McKennery, Murray, etc etc
There used to be close cooperation between the South African and British security services. Also between the SA and Israeli services. The IRA, PLO and ANC people used to be trained, bankroled etc by the same people. My enemy, your enemy, our enemy. On a personnal level though I have never met a South African who had any issues with any Cath Irish. Served with a few in the SADF.
What I would like to know is how come the SABC did not have separate TV channels for Afrikaans and English? In Canada the CBC has channels for both French and English.
They do have that. SABC 1 is for English, SABC 2 is for Afrikaans with some black African languages. But I think those black African languages should have their own channcels too (with that I mean 1 channel for 1 language, not 1 channel with 3 languages).
It's a good point - one of the reasons why TV was kept out until 1976 was that more conservative Afrikaners saw TV as a threat and didn't want it at all. Until, 1996, the first channel (TV1) was split between Afrikaans and English, and the second channel, known as TV2/TV3/TV4, and later as CCV, was in black African languages. There are plans for SABC 4 and SABC 5, which will give more airtime to these. KykNet on pay-TV is entirely in Afrikaans.
For a variety of reasons: 1. some viewed T.V. as dangerous--so the gov't did'nt advance the technogy needed to so such? 2. In Canada the CBC is funded by commercial dollars as well as gov't,while in South Africa during apartheid and even till this day it is funded by a T.V. license Tax.
I think the guy just taped over the news. The same fx you see at 02:30 and 03:35 always happened to me when I was done recording The Simpsons over a buddy's Murder She Wrote tapes.
It's cesnsoring, I don't fin it suprising from the National Party goverment, I live In a coutry which sebsoring only endid in 1974 and I can tell that's censoring. Also you can tell that the "replacement" tapes are also from SABC (then SABC/SAUK).
The thing I find amazing about South African Television is the fact they were the last ones in the World to start TV broadcasts.....in the mid 1970's!! What was the logic in waiting so bloody long? Even their neighbouring countries had TV.
Sorry, i know you wrote this ages ago but to reply, the Nationalist Government saw it as a potential threat to undermining their ideology and as a threat to "Afrikanerdom". So by abstaining from TV they could maintain their monopoly news broadcasting through the SABC and Radio..
It's just like saying the Soviet TV news presenters were Communist.
These are just reporters who are conveying the news albeit in propaganda form by orders of their government. It is not much different than what they are doing in America via Fox News. It's reporting the news in a very distorted and biased form.
Mal oor haar haarstyl, moes seker ure gevat het en ek weet nie hoeveel blikkies haarsproei om dit so te kry nie. En die agtergrond van TV4 toe hulle die skedule gegee het lyk soos die gay vlag...
If your English MASTERS had NEVER let the White man out of the English criminal dungeaons & ship them to invade and occupy AFRICA, the Whitman would still have been the subject of Little-Europe. Remember, once criminal heritage always remains criminal heritage. Blacks are taking advantage of the very system that was made to enslave blacks. Too bad "WHITES" FEEL their own demise, by the very system they created to benefit them. Whites need to get used to the idea, HISTORY NEVER GOES BACK AGAIN.
I am afraid history is catching up with the Afrikaners. Had they not had Apartheid and not had this colonial social system, the blacks would have been able to enjoy the same rights, freedoms, and living standards as the whites. This is what happens when you oppress people who maybe different from you. It tends to bite you right back in the arse.
That statement right there is a laugh! With your way of thinking, you'd think the blacks had always wanted to kill you all and eat your flesh! Oh those "black devils"! They deserve nothing but a good day's work for a good day's beating.
@MySeizures Africa was not a penal colony as was the case with Australia. These whites were immigrants and protestants fleeing religious persecution in Europe.
The UVF back in the day (pre 1970s) were made up of Christian men prepared to fight to the death for their Protestant homeland-it just degenerated into a organisation of murderers and drugdealers after that. The UDA were murdering scum too. As for the AWB, those idiots in theit pseudo Nazi symbolism have given the Afrikaner cause a bad name.
Thanks for clearing that bit about UDA and AWB.Cannot agree with you on the UVF. All murdering bastards! Also to clear things up further, I am no fan of the IRA either. While I support a unified and federal Ireland, I would prefer it be done peacefully and with a separation of church and state. No Protestants or Catholics ruling the roost. There's plenty of guilt to go around in that whole mess in Ulster.
I'm sick of people saying that being racist is like a crime or they deserve to die for having such viewpoints.
As if because the victim is racist murder or theft or rape or terrorism is suddenly not a crime? When do I hear these people saying 'kill the rapists, kill the pedophiles, kill the rapists'
Who gives a crap if they're racist? Mind your own business.
It's just another cheap insult to use when people have no other rational argument. I love my race and fuck anyone who talks disdainfully about my un PC views. PC is a plague that deserves to be mercilessly ridiculed for what it is; cultural Marxism and liberal mind control.
Yeah damn that bloody "Marxist" PC mind control! (sarcasm) If you hate it so much then why are you own the blasted thing?
It's people like you who would rather Afrikaners go back to the 1600's. Hell people like you would probably want to go back to the 1930's so you can join Hitler's killing club! A bunch of right-wing bollix!
What a complete difference to the SA news today. I didn't see anything about murders, rapes, torture and armed robbery........Yes I do know that in 1988 the SABC was the mouthpiece of the Nationalist Government, but there were still far fewer incidences of violence then......
Forgive them father for they know not what they do. For those who think that they will live forever by being racists, I want to tell them, they are not.
Ja we will always laugh about earlier times. But we can`t laugh about the present. It is amazing and beyond any reason how the new government conducts it`t business. It seems LOGIC has no place in this beautiful country. Our Communist government is a fucking joke. We don`t laugh at you, you are too fucking pathetic. Shoot them all.
You cant really ask that question as not all afrikaans speaking people were white as the same can be said for english. I'm not going to start a minority or mayority discusion...easier option would be is to say that the then goverment were racist.
is it absolutely necessary to bring all this shit up here?!? can't fucking go anywhere these days without the whole bloody argument ruining a perfectly innocent moment!
those inbred pigs made south africa into what it is before you kaffers fucked up the country just like you fucked up every other african nations you havent invented nothing in this world except murdering pillaging thieving raping and child muti mutilations you dont know anything about democracy you never had it anyway
sweatypig1970 South Africa was a whole lot more fucked up while ti was ruled by inbred pigs which is why it was globally boycotted and the pig-reservation system collapsed:) Murdering, pillaging, thieving, raping and
child mutilations? That just about sums up colonialism
(something pigs had a patent on long before kaffers).
So just sit back and watch the fruits of your labour
unravel you dumb fuck and quit bitching about it:)
o yes blame it on colonialism why were you colonised in the first place ? shaka zulu slaughtered thousands of people you had no democracy ever ! just cattle beer and fucking and nmultiplying in millions rabbits, while sa was boycotted african states slaughtered and butchered millions of people and starved them to death, you cant organise a piss up in abrewery, cant even get laid in a morgue useless kaffers!
Africa has had its problems, but put in the context of the pig's track record in history, most of these can be traced back to its infestation with pigs. They are a global problem who have caused world wars, genocides and the ongoing environmental and human devastation caused by overconsumption and rapacious exploitation of global resources over many centuries. This is not a feat of civilization. One-celled organisms have done the same for longer. It's a disease, a terrible infestation.
why dont you call it by name the fukkin masonic ,n.w.o. nazi's illuminati, rotschild, rockefeller gang, military industrial complex.redneck skull&bones masturbating clan ,satanic and ritual children killers bush &co. the republican/democratic elite killers of the world THEY rule unfotunately
We Europeans were fighting, slaughtering, and subjugating millions of people throughout the centuries and we are to be considered "civilised"??? Even before we sailed into Africa and the Americas, we doing the violence on our own neighbours. So what makes us more superior to Black Africans?
he who conquers, rules. We are superior for building civilisation, culture, philosophy, art, and developing sciences and furthering knowledge and understanding through discovery and exploration. We conquered because we were superior and able and were given dominion by God.
My God. You know what you sound like? You sound like you came out of the 19th Century. I hate to break the news to you, pal. It's 2008, not 1888! Your way of thinking is out of date!
hmmm who are u to tell someone his or her thinking is out of date, people will have their own opinion and not even they themselves can change it. Who told u that ur thinking is up to date? some liberal celebrity?
for the fact that we live in vast and beatuifull cities have great works of art and sulpture and grand institutes and technology and dont go running around the bush in a loin cloth hunting animals to take back to our mud vilages
Wow! You are such a "forward" thinker, Rulebritannia, me boyo! (sarcasm)
I noticed your profile calling for the restoration of the British Empire. I hope you and the British "Empire" (snicker!) aren't considering retaking the Republic of Ireland.
well you cant read very well then can you i call for the formation of a commonwealth confederation were each nations stays independant but united of wich the ROI is not part of so you can stay with the EU
Oh and by the way, Scotland and Wales will be independent by 2012 and Northern Ireland will be joining our country by 2020! So much for your vision of "Empire"! (ha ha!)
NI will not go to the ROI there would be anarchy and the relative peace we have now will be shatered, scotland may gain independcace but it will break it as a nation it will either come back to england cap in hand or live of EU sbsidies like the ROI and as for wales i doubt it will gain independace at all i hope it finaly gains nation hood within the union but independance is not a viable option change is only good when it is right
For your information, Ireland has the one of the most robust, fastest growing economies in Europe if not the World. We have even done better than the UK in some respects. They don't call it the "Celtic Tiger" for nothing! As for Scotland, I think it will be fine economically. They have the technology and resources. They don't need to be tied to London's apron strings any longer as the EU grows more in prominence.
you know why that is because lots of moeny goes from brussels to dublin its as simple as that. the EU is a self destroying monster and the people under its tyrany have had to endure too much and are becomeing very discontented
And guess who taught them to be that way? The present African system is a by-product of colonialism. Don't believe me? Look at a map of Africa. Many of the nations in Africa are artificial. They were drawn up by the European masters as a way to exploit, divide, and conquer. That is why you so many wars there.
those pigs gave you computers to write on gave you books in your own language , you havent invented nothing on this plane no education, no health care xcept muti ,no family planning ( one parent family isyour speciality) you threw out 40000 indians in uganda stealig their livelyhoods killed 10000 arabs in zanzibar racist pigs! hutus and tutsis racict pigs we are pigs you are swine useless living on welfare swine useles faggots aids ha ha ha
These "massacres" and acts of "racism" that you have mentioned are simply a show of a very healthy natural development of a continent ridding itself of all its parasites. Farm-pigs in South Africa seem to be next in line after Zimbabwe:) It is a continuous process:)
inbred dutch pigs? than what makes that of you ? 350nyears you were the slaves of the dutch inbred pigs, that makes you slaves dumber and more useless than any other race on earth mmm? imagine being ruled so long by incest pigs my god ! you fukkin uselees maggots ! scum of the earth ! shame on you being ruled by dutch inbred pigs you are pathetic beyond belief!
sweaty-pig you worked up quite a sweat there eh? My my what a squeal that was LOL! Neither books, health
care, education or any of that matter was invented by pigs. They were there long before pigs decided to go out and plunder the world. Science is universal and
all civilizations derive their knowledge from earlier ones. My computer is Japanese for example:)
well, well well japanese of course ,where else from not from akaffer land you kill 9innocent farm people and rape grannies! you fukking heroes! how brave you are! couldnt defeat us with 40 million blacks sanctions did well die aussies werk nog steeds in die kombuis ne? en my tuin is so mooi deur solomon gemaak, ha ha ha slaves 4ever you will alway be on the lowest end of the ladder, brazil slums , columbia slums all africa =slums
sweaty-pig I don't speak farm-piggish so you'll have to stick to the more understood office-piggish I mean English:) You seem to have nothing new to add though, so I'll just let it be with a reminder: infestations can be and are being fought both locally and globally.
So you can sit back and whine about it or reevaluate the meaning of your life (if it has any).

@Denizzje The word Afrikaner was increasingly used after 1902 without a connotation to a political sentiment. There is however no difference in modern times. I view myself as Boer even though both my grandfathers were german, one grandmother from Cradock (Cape) and the other Gran from PE (both boer/dutch). And I live in London.

@Denizzje
Many 'Boers' were in fact first generation scottish, Irish and Dutch, german, Frisian, etc decent. President MT Steyn (of the OVS) was in fact english-speaking - the same as with his very pro-boer english-speaking grandson Colin Steyn (few Afrikaners are in fact even aware of this). Hence why some of my best friend - farm-boys speak attrocious english with surnames like Chatwind, McKennery, Murray, etc etc

There used to be close cooperation between the South African and British security services. Also between the SA and Israeli services. The IRA, PLO and ANC people used to be trained, bankroled etc by the same people. My enemy, your enemy, our enemy. On a personnal level though I have never met a South African who had any issues with any Cath Irish. Served with a few in the SADF.

What I would like to know is how come the SABC did not have separate TV channels for Afrikaans and English? In Canada the CBC has channels for both French and English.
jpguinness 3 years ago
They do have that. SABC 1 is for English, SABC 2 is for Afrikaans with some black African languages. But I think those black African languages should have their own channcels too (with that I mean 1 channel for 1 language, not 1 channel with 3 languages).
Denizzje 3 years ago
I was thinking about the SABC during the Apartheid-Era but thanks for the answer tjust the same.
jpguinness 3 years ago
It's a good point - one of the reasons why TV was kept out until 1976 was that more conservative Afrikaners saw TV as a threat and didn't want it at all. Until, 1996, the first channel (TV1) was split between Afrikaans and English, and the second channel, known as TV2/TV3/TV4, and later as CCV, was in black African languages. There are plans for SABC 4 and SABC 5, which will give more airtime to these. KykNet on pay-TV is entirely in Afrikaans.
kmfw72 3 years ago
For a variety of reasons: 1. some viewed T.V. as dangerous--so the gov't did'nt advance the technogy needed to so such? 2. In Canada the CBC is funded by commercial dollars as well as gov't,while in South Africa during apartheid and even till this day it is funded by a T.V. license Tax.

Sorry, i know you wrote this ages ago but to reply, the Nationalist Government saw it as a potential threat to undermining their ideology and as a threat to "Afrikanerdom". So by abstaining from TV they could maintain their monopoly news broadcasting through the SABC and Radio..

It's just like saying the Soviet TV news presenters were Communist.
These are just reporters who are conveying the news albeit in propaganda form by orders of their government. It is not much different than what they are doing in America via Fox News. It's reporting the news in a very distorted and biased form.

If your English MASTERS had NEVER let the White man out of the English criminal dungeaons & ship them to invade and occupy AFRICA, the Whitman would still have been the subject of Little-Europe. Remember, once criminal heritage always remains criminal heritage. Blacks are taking advantage of the very system that was made to enslave blacks. Too bad "WHITES" FEEL their own demise, by the very system they created to benefit them. Whites need to get used to the idea, HISTORY NEVER GOES BACK AGAIN.

I am afraid history is catching up with the Afrikaners. Had they not had Apartheid and not had this colonial social system, the blacks would have been able to enjoy the same rights, freedoms, and living standards as the whites. This is what happens when you oppress people who maybe different from you. It tends to bite you right back in the arse.

The UVF back in the day (pre 1970s) were made up of Christian men prepared to fight to the death for their Protestant homeland-it just degenerated into a organisation of murderers and drugdealers after that. The UDA were murdering scum too. As for the AWB, those idiots in theit pseudo Nazi symbolism have given the Afrikaner cause a bad name.
perkele0079 4 years ago
Thanks for clearing that bit about UDA and AWB.Cannot agree with you on the UVF. All murdering bastards! Also to clear things up further, I am no fan of the IRA either. While I support a unified and federal Ireland, I would prefer it be done peacefully and with a separation of church and state. No Protestants or Catholics ruling the roost. There's plenty of guilt to go around in that whole mess in Ulster.

sutadi1970 5 years ago
Africa has had its problems, but put in the context of the pig's track record in history, most of these can be traced back to its infestation with pigs. They are a global problem who have caused world wars, genocides and the ongoing environmental and human devastation caused by overconsumption and rapacious exploitation of global resources over many centuries. This is not a feat of civilization. One-celled organisms have done the same for longer. It's a disease, a terrible infestation.
