🇿🇦 March 2025: The South African Presidency dismissed a call to condemn the genocidal chant "Kill the Boer! Kill the farmer!"

📝🔶 Joost Strydom on X: "I'm utterly surprised CNN posted a positive article on Orania!"

Joost Strydom leads the group of White South Africans who have dismissed the US’ offer of asylum, and heads Orania, a separatist “Afrikaner-only” settlement in the country’s Northern Cape.

“Help us here,” he said his message was to Trump, whom he hopes will recognize Orania’s quest for self-determination.

Strydom was part of Orania’s delegation to the US in late March to push for this goal.

“We met with government officials,” he said. “The conversation is ongoing, and it is something that we’ve decided to keep a low profile on.”

Orania is backed by a 1994 post-apartheid accord that allowed for Afrikaner self-determination, including the concept of an Afrikaner state, referred to as Volkstaat.Strydom anticipates that the settlement could develop into a “national home for the Afrikaner people.”

🇿🇦🇺🇸 Ernst Roets on X: "Ramaphosa started the meeting with Trump by asking for money. He then sat through the entire Kill the Boer video and responded by asking for money once again. At his presser thereafter he explained that he went there to ask for money, and he did, so the meeting was good."

🇿🇦🗳 SABC on X: "KZN businessman Farhad Hoomer, previously accused of terrorism and sanctioned by the U.S., has applied to register a new political party, the Islamic State of Africa, raising concern ahead of the 2026 elections."

🇿🇦🇺🇸 President Ramaphosa says South Africa will not be instructed by the USA to arrest anyone for singing "Kill the Boer, kill the farmer" because it is a "liberation chant."

He claims that the chant calling for the killing of white farmers is not a call for anyone to be killed.
