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.

November 31 2007 – POTGIETERSRUST — 80-year-old Afrikaner farmer Coen Seegers was attacked on his farm Kalkfontein near Potgietersrust by a four-man gang who chopped in on his face and head with axes. Miraculously he survives but the old farmer is in serious condition at the local hospital.

Mr Seegers was attacked only one day after 85-year-old Barend Jonker was also injured in an axe-attack by four armed men.

Transvaal Agricultural Union district manager Marie Helm urged farmers to step up their security measures even more.The district has had nine armed attacks last month alone.

And during the attack on Seegers, a shotgun and handgun were also robbed – meaning that the gang now has firearms. The group of young African men had walked up to Seegers ‘ homestead pretending that they wanted to buy milk, attacking and tying up the farmer and his wife.

The local agricultural community now is on the highest alert, with search teams joining the police to find the attack gangs and the farm-security system checking up regularly on the wellbeing of isolated farm dwellers.

One 20-year-old man was already captured and is expected in the Pietersburg magistrate’s court on Monday to get a remand date set for his bail application appearance.

The local cops arrested the guy with some of Mr Jonkers’ robbed clothes.
Another suspect, 27, also appears in Louis Trichardt-magistrate’s court today for the armed attack against 54-year-old farmer Callie Erasmus in the Levubu-district near Louis Trichardt on 7 November.

Erasmus was injured but still managed to capture this man, tying him up and handing him over to alerted police.
