Without Europeans there would be nothing in SA to fight over.
SA would be just another African country waiting on the next UN food drop.
Sure apartheid was wrong, but don't knock the people who created the best country on the continent today. Everyone wants the contributions, but to rid SA of the contributors. You cannot have contributions without contributors.
Pilger is slanting the story to fit the facts he wants to quote.
The richest 5% of any population will continue to be wealthy if you take their land.
Presenting a viewpoint that whites gave up nothing when apartheid ended is a lie. Entire neighborhoods, luxury high rises & expensive land was taken over by the masses. Thousands of middle class "whites" lost their homes. FF 10 years & all of these assets are so rundown most are condemned. What would SA be in 10 years without "whites"?
the ANC have fucked over their own people to nearly the same extent as the Apartheid scumbags. Yet Mandela is still a hero to practically every black South African. The black middle class has indeed grown to a huge degree and they've basically taken the place of all the white middle class who left the country post-'94. But the vast mass of poor blacks hasnt benefitted an iota from the so called 'new South Africa'. There could well be an even bigger violent upheaval in SA within the next decade.
This journalist is so good to blame and paint the whites in a dark colour. Whereever he has made documentary he has always blamed the whites, the rich, and the conservatives for the unfear around the world. When is he going to make such a documentary about his own poeple, The popular Aussises and their attrocities againt the aborigins?
It's easy for a fat cat in a suit to claim that mining deaths are "regrettable". He's not the one being crushed in a rock-fall or blown up in a gas explosion.
At 4:23 he says 'long before the Boers declared...' which should be long before the Afrikaners declared racism official policy. The Afrikaners ruled the country not the Boers.
