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.

Over 600 people marched Wednesday to a local community soccer field after Mamelodi East residents allegedly burnt shacks and spaza shops belonging to foreigners, said Pretoria police.
“They are going to a local soccer field to discuss the problem…they want to know if the illegal immigrants will be chased away…that is one of the questions being asked,” police spokesperson Captain Sipho Mabena told Sapa from the scene.
Mabena said that residents were blaming the Mozambican and Zimbabwean nationals for burning their own property.
“Police are deployed in large numbers, we have crime-combating unit, working with crowd control…they (the crowd) want to gather at the local soccer field in Phomolong section in Mamelodi East.”
The impromptu meeting comes after residents looted spaza shops and burnt shacks belonging to foreigners in the area on Tuesday.
“People living in the shacks that have been burnt were taken to Stanza Bopape local community hall where they are being temporarily housed, he said.
“The Red Cross is also here taking care of people whose homes were burnt,” he said.
Twenty-one people have been arrested in connection with the arson; four of them face malicious damage to property charges while the other 16 face public violence charges.
All were men aged between 22 and 40 years old and were in custody at the Mamelodi east police station. Mabena could not confirm a court appearance for the men.
Residents were also attacked on Wednesday.
Mabena said the crowd at the soccer field was being addressed by community safety representative Sam Mangena and community leaders. – Sapa
