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.

A car thief started shooting at Johannesburg paramedics in Quellerina on Sunday night while trying to escape after a crash.
“It’s every day we respond to shootings, but not every day we get shot at,” said ER24 spokesperson Werner Vermaak, still rattled after the gunfire.
He said paramedics were called to the scene of “quite a serious accident” outside the MTN building on the corner of Sentinel and Fourteenth avenues at 6pm.
What they did not know was that one of the cars was stolen, and that undercover police were after its occupant and had opened fire on him at the crash scene, he said. The Fiat Punto had collided head-on with another vehicle.

The driver of the stolen Fiat fled the scene, running down Fourteenth avenue towards the N1. He hijacked a car in the slow-moving traffic, said Vermaak.
It was then that Vermaak arrived at the scene in one of three rescue vehicles sent to help.
The hijacker saw him and tried to swerve out of his way. “I don’t know if he thought I was law enforcement or what,” said Vermaak.
“The next thing, shots were fired in the direction of myself and the other paramedics on the scene,” he said.
The hijacked vehicle hit an Audi, driven by an elderly woman, then carried on driving, taking the N1 in the direction of Soweto – with the police in pursuit.
“She didn’t know what had happened… I was a little bit shocked as well,” said Vermaak. “Fortunately no-one was hurt.”
He said the car thief was thought to have been wounded in the initial shooting.
Vermaak did not know whether the car thief had been caught and the police could not immediately be reached to confirm the incident.
Johannesburg metro police were on the scene and were investigating the accident, said spokesperson Chief Superintendent Wayne Minnaar. – Sapa
