South Africa is seizing land from white people without compensation and Trump is going to cut off aid until they start behaving better.
In a Truth Social post Trump said:
"It is a bad situation that the Radical Left Media doesn’t want to so much as mention,” the president stated. "A massive Human Rights violation, at a minimum, is happening for all to see. The United States won’t stand for it, we will act.”
The Bantu Peoples (black South Africans not of Zulu descent) have no historic claim on this land; the land was empty when Afrikaaners showed up and built settlements. The Bantu mostly came for jobs. Prior to that it was rough country not really worth settling and they had to worry about the Zulus getting them. If anybody has a historical claim to the land it would be the Zulus. But it was the Boers who built the civilization there, and those farms were built by their sweat and blood. Ownership is a Divinely ordained right and, as John Locke eloqueted, ownership of land comes from improving the land. Until the Boers came the land was in a state of nature.
So black South Africans have no legal claim on the land; the majority black South African government is merely seizing it because they want it.
Funny how the whole world turned on South Africa during the Apartheid era, yet yawns at the atrocities being committed by the government there now that it is in black hands and white people are the ones being abused.
Where are the boycotts, the protest marches, the defunding? Only Trump is willing to go there.
According to the article:
This was predictable; the African National Congres (ANC), the party that has pretty much rules South Africa since the white minority turned over power, was always full of Communists and this is the same thing that happened in neighboring Rhodesia, which was then supposed to be Zimbabwe Rhodesia, but is now just Zimbabwe; there are almost no whites left there, and they had to leave with just the clothes on their backs. The man who took power after Rhodesia ceded it was a closet Communist who came out of the closet after attaining power, and he drove the country into the ground. It's now one of the poorest hellholes in the world.
South Africa fared better but has been in decline for a generation now and is increasingly poor and chaoitic.
They used to have nuclear weapons; our government monitored their testing in the South Atlantic. I doubt they can so much as field fighter jets now, even if they bought them from somewhere else.
We should have long ago cut off foreign aid to South Africa and other nations. It's past time.
