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.

The government of South Africa is set to declare parts of the country disaster areas, after 40 people died in floods in a month.
The Minister for Co-operative Government, Sicelo Shiceka, told the BBC the move would happen this weekend.
Rains have hit the country from Kwa-Zulu Natal in the east to the Northern Cape in the west over the last month.
Thousands of homes have been flooded and people living along the Orange River have been evacuated.
Some bridges over the river have been closed, and the South African airforce have been helping in the evacuation.
Police divers are searching for the bodies of people who drowned.
President Jacob Zuma has formed a ministerial task force to tackle the issue, led by Mr Shiceka.
Mr Schiceka told the BBC his team would also look at long-term issues.
“Among other things we are looking at, is that people must not build in flood plains.”
“People who have been displaced must not go back,” said the minister.
