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.

SABC Apologises for the ‘Great S.Africans’ series

[Thanks Vex for finding and resolving this post regarding the Top 100 S.Africans. I laughed at the results – especially the ranking of Eugene Terrblanche. It really makes you wonder… perhaps ET is more popular than people realise! Now that would be a good sign. I am delighted with Hendrik Verwoed’s position though. This is a lovely example of “ANC nation-building” ANC-style – and it was railroaded and kicked right up its ass. But what is the most interesting is that this happened without any over organised campaign (that I know of) to railroad it. It seemed to be a subtle, spontaneous REJECTION of the ANC. Frankly, I am delighted by that. It tells you that deep down, there are things that the ANC has been unable to change and there must be a segment of the population that still rejects the ANC. I would think that segment is mostly Afrikaners. It appears to me that deep down, there may be many Afrikaners who still regard the ANC (rightly so) as: “The Enemy”. Damned right. That’s been my view of them all along, and I see no reason to change it. Jan] Jan, this is from Vex. The article date was Feb. 6, 2007 JOHANNESBURG The SABC has apologised for any offence caused by the recent “Great South Africans” television series. The series was pulled off the air last week after widespread criticism of its make up. The SABC said in a statement on Thursday that after consulting its board, the decision was confirmed not to air the series. “The SABC is sensitive to any hurt or offence that the programme may have caused South Africans and in this regard, apologises unreservedly,” said chief executive Peter Matlare. “We must emphasise that there was no intention to cause hurt, and acknowledge the shortcomings in the way in which the programme was formulated,” he added. Matlare said the SABC was recommitting itself to good public broadcasting values as well as those values enshrined in the Constitution. The public broadcaster’s plans to draw up a list of great South Africans, similar to the BBC’s Great Britons series, ran into trouble after SABC3 viewers chose white supremacists, convicted fraudsters and cheating sportsmen for some of the top 100 places. Among those chosen were prime minister Hendrik Verwoerd, the architect of apartheid, in 19th place, and Eugene TerreBlanche, the self-confessed racist who served three years in jail for attempted murder, in 25th and disgraced cricket captain, the late Hansie Cronje in 11th. Cronje was found guilty of match-fixing and banned from playing in 2000. Sapa Source: SABC |
