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.

There was high drama in Northdale, Pietermaritzburg, on Thursday when two minibus taxis and police pursued three would-be hijackers, arresting two of them.
Police Superintendent Henry Budhram said that the three hijackers, one carrying a gun, got into a minibus taxi on the corner of Bombay and Gandhi roads.
“At gunpoint, the driver was removed from his seat and one of the suspects took control of the taxi,” said Budhram.

However, the taxi driver fought back and forced the hijacker out of the vehicle.
The two other hijackers then got off the taxi, said Budhram.
The taxi driver chased after the hijackers. Another taxi driver who saw the incident joined in the chase.
The hijackers fired shots, damaging a taxi. No one was hurt.
A police patrol in the vicinity received a report of the incident and also joined the pursuit. Two policemen ran after the suspects, arresting one.

The second was caught by security guards at a shopping centre.
Budhram said the police also found the hijackers’ gun, which one had discarded while being pursued.
“The recovered firearm has been confirmed as stolen,” he said.
