2001: 1,200 White Farmers killed already: Ongoing Killings in South Africa threaten famine
[This is what was published by NewsMax in America in 2001. Notice the total of dead White farmers given in 2001 was already 1,200. Nowaday, when they say only 1,600 White farmers have died, then that's nonsense. I recall the total of dead White farmers was given as over 3,000 more than 10 years ago. People are playing around with the numbers. Jan]

Ongoing Killings in South Africa Threaten Famine
Unrestrained violence against farmers in South Africa, where almost 1,200
have been murdered since 1994, could cause widespread famine.
According to the U.N.’s Famine Early Warning Committee, the killing and
violence against white farmers, which exiled journalists call a classic
example of ethnic cleansing, could lead to widespread hunger.
The journalists report that the killings are already leading to reduced food
production and widespread food shortages.
More than 1 million exiles have already fled South Africa and scattered to
many Western countries. More than 500,000 of these mostly young and highly
skilled South Africans of Afrikaner ethnic origin have settled in the United
Kingdom. Most have fled from the violence, which has increasingly
destabilized the country’s economy since the ANC-government took over power
in 1994. More than 200,000 people have already been killed in South Africa in
violence-related incidents since then.
Exiled journalists Pierre Oosthuysen and Adriana Stuijt, editors of a website
devoted to the plight of Afrikaners (http://www.censorbugbear.com)and
experienced South African journalists now living in the Netherlands, blasted
the Dutch media’s “nearly total lack of coverage of widespread human rights
violations by the SA government.”
Together with 144 fellow South African journalists now living in the
Netherlands, they cited human rights violations pertaining to the Mbeki
regime’s refusal to provide proper health care; its deliberate censorship of
news about widespread crime and fraud, which are leading to a near-total
collapse of the country’s policing and health care services and causing
millions of deaths from the AIDS epidemic and violent crimes; and the Mbeki
regime’s ongoing refusal to address what is widely seen as an ethnic
cleansing campaign against Afrikaner farmers, which has resulted in 1,190
murders in more than 6,500 farm attacks since 1994.
Protests by exiled Afrikaners were planned for today in the Netherlands and
in London.
