Trump alleges ‘genocide’ in South Africa but even Afrikaner farmers scoff at the claim



In Bothaville, where thousands of farmers gathered for a lively agricultural fair with everything from grains to guns on display, even some conservative white Afrikaner groups debunked the Trump administration’s “genocide” and land seizure claims that led it to cut all financial aid to South Africa. Some visitors roamed a memorial to farm attacks in their country’s agricultural heartland, some touching the names of the dead — both Black and white. (AP Video: Alfonso Nqunjana) Read more here:

  1. Afrikaners should not emigrate to the US, but to the Netherlands! That's their country of origin! Et ce sera BON débarras ! Now, how did they get land in Africa in the first place? By killings, murders, stealing and injustice! Give back the land to rightful owners. Very, very quickly… Or we'll come down there to get it! And the owner of Tesla will stand there speechless. Dignity is NOT for sale.

  2. He is subject to the prime minister who he works for and as secretary of Agriculture his farms must be protected. So it makes sense he is protecting his job position and the status quo.

  3. Farm attacks have been a fact of life in Africa for decades. Debating whether it technically qualifies as genocide is a tactic that deliberately misses the point.

  4. The fact that people actually believe there's a genocide towards white south africans as opposed to it just being a crime issue, should let you know the power of American Media. Some people can't think for themselves at all.

  5. We live in a world were blatant conspiracy theories are spoken by the president and believed by the masses

    I can't wait to begin my travels into South Africa and see what bogus trump is spreading … An action none of the conservative commenters under this video would dare to do
