Quotes from an article with title – “For whom the bell tolls…. It tolls for thee!” published on the Transvaal Agricultural Union (TAU) website.
Nothing “comes right” without action.
If South Africans with any integrity value what went before, then it is incumbent upon them to resist, to object, to raise Cain and to tell the world about the scourge with which we are saddled in this beautiful country. Muttering into one’s beer at the braai won’t stop the rot. Being afraid to take action, or to go to the streets, or hold back taxes or involve the international community might secure you a relatively worry-free short term future, but this is folly. Holding back “because it will eventually come right” is a fallacy. Nothing “comes right” without action. Depending on what ordinary South Africans do now will dictate whether we sink or swim together.
The ANC called TAU SA an “extremist organization” during a presentation at the United Nations Human Rights Council Forum on Minority Issues
Hence TAU SA’s efforts last month in presenting the United Nations Human Rights Council Forum on Minority Issues with a report on Farm Murders in South Africa, with specific requests to the organization that nations should be forced to adhere to their responsibilities with regard to specific human rights issues, such as assaults on the South African commercial farming community.
It is indicative of the deleterious effect of internationalizing the decline of South Africa that the SA government felt it necessary to present its own submission to this UN body.
Had the government’s presentation been of any worth, it may have been seriously considered. But it is virtually impossible to believe that the United Nations would take seriously the political humbug contained in the presentation. The UN knows in great detail about our government’s foibles. The presentation confirms a disconnect between reality and what the ANC thinks of itself: it tells the UN it is building “one national identity”, that ours is a society “with value systems… a society that prioritizes caring for and respecting others.” The old chestnuts “white domination and supremacy” were thrown into the mix, as was the clarion call that the government is “working towards the elimination of racial discrimination”. It called TAU SA an “extremist organization”.
The ANC has spoilt South Africa for us…
We have fled our cities to the suburban malls. We have given over our parks to litter and layabouts. Our universities have been purloined. We build new ones and the parasites come after those too. The ANC’s destructive force moves across the land like lava from a volcano, destroying all in its path.
People steal buildings brick by brick. Squatter camps mushroom next to our suburbs. Our hospitals are deathtraps where the cold black eye of contempt greets the patient who needs care and a friendly smile. Death stalks some of the corridors.
Businessmen seek investments overseas.
They are moving out, buying up companies throughout the world to get their cash out of the rat hole. We read reports of official theft and embezzlement every day so that we are no longer shocked. The thieves and the incompetents award themselves huge salaries with not a flicker of shame. They are contemptuous of taxpayers. Their arrogance seems boundless.
We never heard one piece of criticism from Nelson Mandela’s lips as the country fell into decline and as his ANC government pillaged South Africa.
Five point three million people submitted tax returns this year, out of a population of 53 million. Yet our media is swamped with the wonderful “legacy of Madiba”. Surely what we now experience is the legacy of Nelson Mandela. He was the ANC, he always lived as the ANC and he died as the ANC…
