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.

Johannesburg – WHAT a relief! I feel better now.” Those are John Mosegathebe’s feelings after finding himself at the receiving end of Afrikaner Weerstandsbeweging (AWB) leader Eugene TerreBlanche’s abuse, during a three-year stint as a cattle herder.
He says he was fired last week, after being paid only R300, instead of his R900 wages.
“I was asking myself why he had to live so long, having assaulted so many people. This is a relief to us. I feel better now,” says the 63-year-old.
Mosegathebe’s sentiments are shared by many at Tshing township, 5km from TerreBlanche’s farm in Ventersdorp.
Some jumped with joy yesterday, describing the killing as a huge relief to the community that depends largely on farms for employment.
They screamed excitedly, saying they would now live their lives without fear of being brutalised by him.
“This man was so brutal and heartless,” says Mosegathebe.
“He used to assault me on a daily basis for no reason and showed no respect for my poor health.”
Pakiso Diphaphang also does not have nice things to say about his former employer.
“I used to ask myself why God was keeping him alive, having killed so many people.” Diphaphang says he was fired for missing a day’ s work.
The feelings of those in the township were in stark contrast to those who were close to or admired TerreBlanche.
Angry residents and Afrikaners from other provinces laid flowers at the gate to TerreBlanche’s farm.
“He fought a lot for us and our language. And if we have more people like that in every community, things in SA would be much different,” says Rean Olivier, an AWB member who travelled from Johannesburg to the North West with his wife Isabella to pay their respects.
He says that African National Congress (ANC) Youth League president Julius Malema needed to be killed to prevent a war between blacks and whites.
“I think Malema has to be taken out to clear the playing field. This killing is a sign of war between black and white and this murder has definitely made Afrikaners racist, including myself,” says Olivier.
But the official line is guarded.
“Although we are shocked and angry with his killing, there would be no revenge from our members,” says AWB spokesman Pieter Steyn.
“We believe his killing is politically motivated, aimed at attacking white farmers. We are satisfied with the government’s response so far,” says Steyn.
He retracted the party’s previous statements to kill. His organisation would approach the United Nations to ask for help in establishing an independent “boere state”.
“We have our own customs to respect and we need to govern ourselves,” he says, and is supported by Annetjie Barnard, another AWB follower.
“Since Malema’s ‘kill the boer ” song, we feel that we are under siege, and the situation gets worse every day,” Barnard says.
Malema told reporters in Zimbabwe yesterday the song was not a factor in TerreBlanche’s murder.
“We have nothing to do with his death. People are just mobilising the right wing against us and trying to intimidate us,” he said after meeting President Robert Mugabe.
The ANC also condemned the linking of the song to TerreBlanche’s death. “Any claim that blacks intend to harm other race groups … is baseless and devoid of all truth,” the party said in a statement.
Police yesterday prepared for the court appearance of the suspects, a 21-year-old man and a 15-year-old boy, arrested for bludgeoning TerreBlanche to death. They are to appear at Ventersdorp Magistrate’s Court today.
Hundreds of people were expected to converge on the court
The mother of the teenager said her son owned up to the killing.
“My son admitted that they did the killing,” she said in an interview with AP Television News conducted from her home in Tshing township. With Sapa and Reuters
