Genocide develops in eight stages that are predictable but not inexorable. At each stage, preventive measures can stop it. The process is not linear. Logically, later stages must be preceded by earlier stages. All stages operate throughout the process.

Africa is a basket case of genocide. And the world sits back! uuggh... Always too little, too late. Am I my brother's keeper? Damn right you are! Stop the apathy and stop the deaths. How? Speak up - speak out. And whenever possible, practical help. I had a Malawian sanctuary here in my backyard when the 'black' South Africans went on a rampage against the 'black' foreigners living in this country and who was 'stealing' their jobs. What rubbish! Any excuse will do when hate needs formentation and publicity. Partners in dark crime and death. Reminds me of that wonderful book: 'Hold my hand, I'm dying'. The story about Rhodesia, now called Zimbabwe. And yes, that country truly died - and again the west sat back and did nothing. If t here is nothing to gain (no votes, no wealth) then we don't act. Rhetoric does not cut it. We have lost our souls. Studying history is a hobby of mine - and from everything I've read - we repeat the atrocities over and over again. We learn nothing. Why? Is it because we put people into power - people whose ethics are unkinown, or questionable? Is it because we consider ourselves different? Different skin colour, different religious beliefs? I saw a wonderful comment on someone's profile: 'God is too big to belong to one religion'.

Sorry, I'm rambling, it is late (way past my bedtime), but genocide is happening the world over - and we are too busy with our lives to speak out or to act. Until it is our turn!

GENOCIDE BEING COMMITTED AGAINST SOUTH AFRICAN WHITES
>> Every day hundreds of mails are sent around the world, asking for
>> help to save some animal species.

>> Is it not very strange how the whole world is ignoring the apparent
>> Genocide being committed against the white people in South Africa?
>>
>> This slaughter of whites by blacks is being portrayed in the media as
>> - "merely crime related"
>>
>> If the motive of the crime is theft, why is it necessary to take the
>> life of the person that has already handed over their cell-phone or
>> wallet?
>>
>> If the motive for the crime is hijacking, why take the woman with
>> them, gang-rape her and then slit her throat?
>>
>> If the motive for house-breaking is petty theft, why throw boiling
>> water over the farmers before killing them, - after forcing them to
>> watch their wives being gang-raped and tortured in front of them?
>>
>> Were the mass murders in Bosnia "merely crime related"?
>>
>> Were the mass murders of Jews in Germany during WWII "merely crime
>> related"?
>>
>> Are the daily murders of various tribe members in Kenya "merely crime
>> related"?
>>
>>
>> WHY IS THE HUGE NUMBER OF MURDERS BEING COMMITTED AGAINST SOUTH
>> AFRICAN WHITES LABELLED - "CRIME RELATED"?
>>
>> BUT... Why is it that the police can spend hundreds of thousands of
>> Rands, and thousands of man-hours hunting down the one white that
>> opened fire upon blacks in Skielik, whilst they cannot find any
>> murderers of innocent, white children, women and men?
>>
>> In any other countries a mass extermination of any tribe on such a
>> scale would be considered Genocide, a crime against humanity, and an
>> international outcry would follow.
>>
>> Hundreds of peace keeper would be sent to South Africa.
>> The United Nations would hold a special sitting.
>> Headlines in the mass media would be screaming blue murder.
>> The television channels would be filled with scenes of the dead
>> bodies, and their grieving families.
>>
>> Yet in South Africa, the murder of the white tribe by the blacks is
>> reduced to a statistic and labelled "crime"
>>
>> The state sponsored media hardly spares their murders a few lines.
>> The police refuse to release statistics on the extent of the murders.
>>
>> What must we do to focus the world's attention on this
>> GENOCIDE---disguised as crime?
>>
>> If you're a concerned citizen, whether in South Africa or
>> internationally, you are morally bound to act---NOW!!
>>
>> Get letters published in your local media highlighting the plight of
>> the white tribe in South Africa.
>>
>> Ask why the ANC led South African Government is suppressing crime
>> figures.
>>
>> Ask why the murders of white citizens in South Africa are not being
>> solved.
>>
>> If, as the media are quick to proclaim "WHITES CONDUCTING A RACIST
>> CAMPAIGN AGAINST BLACKS" why do you not hear hundreds of reports of
>> whites killing blacks for their cell-phones?
>>
>> Why are the whites not killing blacks for their cars?
>>
>> Why are the whites not breaking into the upper class black
>> neighbourhoods, raping and murdering the women, before making of with
>> their TV sets?
>>
>> This GENOCIDE must be brought to the attention of the world media
>> before it is too late. Before all the Whites have been erased from
>> the face of South Africa.
>>
>>
>>
>> STOP 2010 WORLDCUP IF THE SA GOVERMENT DOESN'T ACT NOW!
>>
>>
>> Do your bit to help the White citizens of South Africa NOW!!
>> Send this mail to everyone you know throughout the world!!
>> Alert the world to the mass extermination taking place right in front
>> of their eyes.
>> Alert all white tourists that are considering a visit to South Africa

>> PLEASE HELP!!!! PLEASE HELP!!!! PLEASE HELP!!!!
