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: Bishop Tutu laments lack of apartheid prosecutions
|
[Grrrrrrrrrr. Jan] South Africa should have prosecuted apartheid-era perpetrators of atrocities who refused to repent, retired Archbishop Desmond Tutu said on Thursday as the country prepared to mark a decade since the creation of its truth commission. Tutu, who chaired the historic Truth and Reconciliation Commission (TRC), said in an interview to SABC radio that those who refused to take part in the process should have been forced to account for their actions before a court of law. “We have probably not done as well in regard to … those who thumbed their noses at the truth commission,” Tutu said. “We probably should have done what the legislation requires and really prosecuted people,” he said. ‘We are allowing impunity’ Tutu said that the failure to prosecute could undermine the rule of law. “We are allowing impunity,” he said. “It does mean that there are those who are able to say: ‘hahaha what can you do to us?’ and it makes people possibly have a slightly less regard for the rule of law,” said the Nobel peace laureate. The TRC wrapped up its work in March 2003 when it presented a seven-volume report to President Thabo Mbeki. Tutu also said that the victims of apartheid-era brutality were not adequately compensated for their losses. “I think that we as a nation have been less than generous in the money reparations that we have offered to the victims,” he said, noting that those who agreed to testify before the TRC also gave up the right to seek damages in a court of law as part of the reconciliation process. Tasked with investigating human rights abuses between 1960 and 1994, when apartheid officially ended, the commission heard the harrowing testimony of some 21,000 victims and perpetrators. Mbeki is due to make an address on Friday at an event marking the 10-year anniversary of the TRC in Pretoria. – Sapa-AFP Source: Independent Online (IOL) |
