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.

Three policemen are in hospital following a wild highway chase that ended with a hijacked truck rolling off the road.
Bullets flew on the M1 highway as 10 police cars from the Sandton area tried in vain to stop a refrigerated food truck that had been hijacked at the Grayston offramp.
As the truck approached Marlboro Road, three officers in a VW Citi Golf tried to overtake it and force it to stop – but the truck smashed into them and drove over the small car.

A second police car, a Toyota Condor, crashed into the Golf as the truck continued fleeing towards Pretoria.
Police provincial spokesperson, Captain Julia Claassen, said that officers then tried to shoot out the trucks tires but the vehicle continued past Woodmead and took the sharp hairpin turn-off onto the N3 towards Germiston.
“The truck tried to push the police vehicles off the road,” Claassen said.
At this bend, on the Buccleuch interchange, the chase came to a dramatic end as the truck rolled off the road and police officers pounced on the 32-year-old driver.
The climax of the pursuit was recorded at 3.34am and five minutes later a call for help went out to the ambulances, who took three policemen to hospital.
By 8am on Thursday morning the offramp where the truck rolled was still closed off to traffic as police continued their investigations.
The original driver of the truck – delivering Woolworths food – was allegedly flung out of the truck at the Grayston offramp.
At a press conference on Monday, Gauteng MEC Firoz Cachalia, said that truck hijackings were on the rise and of concern. Police, he said, still had to bring the trend under control.
The man arrested for the hijacking is likely to appear in court early next week.
