WARNING: This is Version 1 of my old archive, so Photos will NOT work and many links will NOT work. But you can find articles by searching on the Titles. There is a lot of information in this archive. Use the SEARCH BAR at the top right. Prior to December 2012; I was a pro-Christian type of Conservative. I was unaware of the mass of Jewish lies in history, especially the lies regarding WW2 and Hitler. So in here you will find pro-Jewish and pro-Israel material. I was definitely WRONG about the Boeremag and Janusz Walus. They were for real.

S.Africa: Worst Drought since 1915 in progress….
This is for the information of those outside South Africa who are probably unaware that we are experiencing record temperatures and extremely dry weather this summer.
We normally get rain in summer. But so far, there has been very little rain. It was stated that in the Free State (and much of South Africa), it is the driest since records were kept in 1915… we are experiencing the worst rains in 88 years…
This is beautiful, coupled with the lack of diesel to the farmers… If the rains don’t improve we could experience a record drought.
Note, on our daily weather charts – Zimbabwe gets MUCH MORE RAIN THAN WE DO! But because we do farming properly here, we of course are less affected than them to a large degree. But the way things are going this year… it could be bad.
Now there’s a tickler… Maize meal is the staple diet of blacks… so while it will affect food prices in general… it will actually affect black South Africans (and the white commercial farmers who feed them) more.
We will see as the season progresses if things get better… or not… But it could highlight what lies ahead for this country which likes to hate its commercial farmers.
