What treacherous people have done to Southern Africa

Rhodesia and South Africa had been the bread basket of much of Africa, they had been prosperous and well run nations . Unfortunately for southern Africa and particularly South Africa the Negroes of Central Africa learnt of the coming of the White man and began to migrate down to enjoy White man's benefits. They then multiplied until they had outbred the Whites and then the opportunistic Communists led by the Russian Jew Joe Slovo, backed by international criminals including at least four of our own Prime Ministers pressured the Whites into handing over to Black rule simply because they had now outnumbered the progressive and intellectually superior Whites. - Yes that's right politically incorrect superior  

Our Prime Ministers from Whitlam to Keating with their oversized depraved mouths deliberately helped to destroy Southern Africa, particularly Fraser. Where are their big poisonous mouths now. As a result of their treachery they have blood on their hands for many Whites, mainly farmers have been murdered or their farms stolen. Not a peep out of these evil people now. 

If anybody has their Email or postal addresses would they please give it to me as they should not be allowed to bask in their ill gotten riches and pretending to be eminent persons.

The details below refer to Zimbabwe but the murder of South African farmers is continuing unabated.

Zimbabwe militants seize farm of Commercial Farmers' Union president
By Sebastien Berger in Johannesburg

Last Updated: 1:43am BST 10/04/2008

Zanu PF militants have invaded the farm of Commercial Farmers' Union president Trevor Gifford, saying he is never to return home.

Mr Gifford, who has spent a frantic week in Harare trying to assist at least 60 fellow farmers cope with their own invasions around the country was not at home near Chipinge, about 220 miles south east of Harare, when the mob of about 30 wearing Zanu-PF T-shirts arrived at his security gate.

"They have left messages with staff for me that they are taking over the farm and will manage the livestock with some of my workers," Mr Gifford said.

Mr Gifford has endured many previous invasions and his mature coffee crop and more than two-thirds of his macadamia and avocado plantation on about 600 acres have been destroyed by invaders and new farmers since President Robert Mugabe began seizing white owned farms in 2000.

He is presently running 200 cattle, mostly for his brother who was also evicted by Mr Mugabe's supporters, and a small dairy on the old family farm, Wolverhampton.

"They shouted that the state owns my farm now," he said.

Most of his land was handed over to Mr Mugabe's supporters but they failed to grow enough crops to feed their families and will need emergency food aid this year.

White commercial farmers have been under huge pressure and some have had their homes, crops and equipment destroyed or taken over this week as Zanu-PF claims that the Movement for Democratic Change would return land to evicted white farmers, most of whom left Zimbabwe and settled overseas.

Morgan Tsvangirai, leader of the MDC, who most analysts believe delivered a humiliating defeat to Mr Mugabe in the presidential election has said there would be no reversal of the "land reform" programme begun by Mr Mugabe in 2000 which saw about 4,000 white farmers deprived of their land, homes and businesses.

Results for the presidential poll have been delayed although they were available to the Zimbabwe Electoral Commission on March 31.

Justice minister Patrick Chinamasa said that there would be a pre-result recount of the presidential poll even before the results are delivered.

Zimbabwe's white farmers in land-grab battle

Zimbabwe's last white farmers were "preparing for the worst" yesterday as their leader predicted that they would all be forced to leave their properties by President Robert Mugabe's latest land invasion.

The height of the land grab campaign in 2000. Gangs of ‘war veterans’ loyal to Robert Mugabe seized hundreds of white-owned farms – a tactic to which they have returned this week
 

Chanting gangs of veterans of the war against white rule have occupied at least 27 farms since Saturday, with about 12 falling victim yesterday morning alone. Only about 200 white farmers are left in Zimbabwe - five per cent of the total eight years ago.

"We are preparing for the worst," said Trevor Gifford, president of the once powerful Commercial Farmers' Union (CFU).

One white farmer, who declined to be named, was tipped off that squatters were about to overrun his property. He gathered his wife, their three children, aged seven, nine and 11, and his elderly parents and left immediately.

His homestead was duly invaded on Sunday. Trembling with emotion, the farmer said: "I have wondered what this day would be like, whether it would come after all these years. Now I am wondering if this is it, or if I will be able to get back."

The farmer survived the land invasions of 2000 and the official seizure of white-owned properties that began in earnest in 2002.

However, Mr Mugabe's apparent defeat in the first round of Zimbabwe's presidential poll may have led to his dispossession. To extend his 28-year rule, the president is fanning racial tensions and holding out Zimbabwe's last acres of white-owned land as a vote-winner in the election run-off that must take place by April 19.

"I have been so lucky to last this long, and I don't know why I did," said the farmer. "I have just grown the best crop of my life."

He produced about 500 acres of soya beans this summer, half of which was due to be harvested right now.

The invasions began on Saturday in Masvingo province, about 160 miles south of the capital, Harare. Five farmers were forced to flee or were trapped inside their homes by drunken mobs. A game lodge was also seized.

Then the occupations spread to Centenery, once Zimbabwe's agricultural heartland where the guerrilla war against white rule began 36 years ago.

More invasions have also taken place in Shamva district, north of Harare.

The opposition Movement for Democratic Change has appealed to the High Court to order the authorities to announce the results of the presidential poll. Yesterday, a judge heard its case and postponed a ruling until today.

Meanwhile, Mr Mugabe's Zanu-PF party has denounced the electoral commission and threatened to purge its leading members.

Didymus Mutasa, Zanu-PF's hard-line administration secretary, called the running of the election the "worst" he had ever known. In a sign that the regime was trying to further undermine the validity of the election results, police arrested seven election officials last night, charging them with under-counting votes cast for Mr Mugabe.

Morgan Tsvangirai, the MDC's presidential candidate, arrived in South Africa yesterday. But he will not meet President Thabo Mbeki, who is visiting India.

The stated aim of Mr Mbeki's "quiet diplomacy" towards Zimbabwe was to secure an undisputed election.

Instead, for possibly the first time in electoral history, this presidential poll is being disputed by both contenders before its official results have even been released.
