Mrs Stroebel runs the ANGELS AT WORK charity and provides shelter to homeless Afrikaners while the charity finds them work. http://www.facebook.com/home.php?sk=group_162997847072092
Ethnic cleansing of poor Afrikaners by forcing them to live amongst people who are not their own culture:
The erected Wendy houses on her property serve to accommodate care for homeless Afrikaners while the charity attempts to find jobs for them. If the Pretoria City Council application succeeds, Mrs Stroebel will have to put these homeless whites out into the streets.
The Afrikaner Journal writes that ‘at present it does not seem as thought the council wants to act under the obligations laid down by the Constitution of South Africa – which demands that suitable, alternative accommodation must always first be found to accommodate these people in this marginalized community. It also seems a very real possibility that if the council decides to act it will relocate them to open veldt-areas where these Afrikaners will not have access to even the most basic services – and which will cause them great hardship and would threaten their survival and health. .
It is also a real danger that they will be dumped in townships and effectively be removed from all social interaction with their own Afrikaner cultural community,” the Afrikaner Journal concludes.
This would in fact be in direct violation of the UN Genocide Convention, which prohibits the physical removal of a a culturally different ethnic-minority to force them to live amongst a completely different culture. It’s referred to as ethnic cleansing.

Farmer Andre vd Merwe dragged 1,2km behind bakkie

ShareFarmer Andre vd Merwe of Ottosdal: shot three times, dragged 1,2km behind bakkie, left a trail of blood…
APRIL 30 2011 - OTTOSDAL, NW - André (Brood) vd Merwe, 49, shot 3 times, was dragged 1,2km behind his bakkie before his murderers crashed it, with the Afrikaner still chained to it. And since he left a thick blood-trail to follow, the farmer may shave been alive while being dragged. (source: Carla van Niekerk, Beeld)
North West farmer André (Brood) vd Merwe, 49, was murdered on April 30 2011. The amiable, single man, who also worked at Swarico Auctions and was well known in the community, was also shot in the back of the head, in the chest and in the cheek. The black-racist murder occurred on his farm about 10 km outside town on the Lichtenburg road. And because three of the attackers were arrested, the SAPF confirmed the 'incident'. Brig. Thulani Ngubane also confirmed that VanderMerwe was dragged 1,2km behind his bakkie - which he said then overturned with the farmer still chained to it. Rather confusingly he explained that a black man they’d found at the scene had refused to give his name, but claimed that the farmer's body was found in the fields while the bakkie 'wasn't there any more'. Due to the diligence of a neighbour’s son and his friends, who followed Van der Merwe’s blood trail at 21:30, police were able to arrest three black men - one even was still inside the crashed bakkie.
Friend and neighbour Koos Weideman said Vd Merwe had recently conquered bladder-cancer with chemotherapy and had also had 'a series of heart attacks' three years ago.His son Louis, 22, and a group of young men searched for an dfound Vd Merwe's body on Saturday-night after André 's girlfriend Ms Petra Pretorius could not get hold of him and contacted Weideman's son. The neighbour said he was in Margate at the time and his son kept in touch by phone while the young men were following the blood-trail in the pitch-dark. Louis Weideman and his friends tracked the trail through the fields for about 1,2km before finding the body.
"My son phoned me at around 21:30 while they were still following it. They saw a lot of blood and then came across the body,' he said.
(Personal comment: The murdered farmer must still have been alive while being dragged as corpses don't usually bleed?)
His son is terribly shocked said Weideman. Local farmer Robert Nel also knew VdMerwe well, saying he also worked at the Swarico Auctions, was well-known in the community and enjoyed making jokes. He had been targetted for attacks before: last year a safe was robbed from his house, which then was recovered.
The three detained suspects were expected for a remand date appearance at Ottosdal magistrate's court soon. This is 'blatant racism,' said Freedom Front MP Pieter Groenewald. "The Police minister is too lax to act against farm-attackers and the socalled rural safety plan f theirs only exists on paper but not in practice. '

Theuns Potgieter falsely arrested, kicked by SAPF

ShareThe police at the Pretoria Moot police station refused to register his complaint that he was repeatedly kicked by a police-officer during his arrest… The Afrikaner was kept for six days in a police cell, was vomiting and passing blood in his urine after assaults…
Theuns Potgieter falsely arrested, legal gun confiscated, brutally kicked by Pretoria SAPF April 21 2011
When 33-year-old Afrikaner Theuns Potgieter of Silverton went to get two tyres fixed at a Gezina fuel-station with a friend on April 21 2011, at 21:14. he carried his legal handgun inserted in the back of his trousers. Suddenly a large number of police officers descended on the Afrikaner inside the fuel-station premises. He was kicked repeatedly in the stomach, handcuffed, his legally-registered gun confiscated. He needed treatment at hospital after his ordeal, which was recorded on CCTV... He was arrested for ‘resisting arrest’ and ‘having an illegal firearm’. Source: Hilda Fourie, Beeld.
The footage shows that he did not resist arrest at any stage: "When I saw the uniformed men coming in, and before they even spoke to me I had already taken out my handgun and placed it on my car's engine-cap, telling them that my firearm-registratiion license was legal, but was at home,’ he told Beeld newspaper.
He en his friend Hendrik Grobler, 34, who had gone to the petrol-station with him that night, were both ordered to lie down on their stomachs. Beeld photographed the CCTV-footage which showed what happened next: a man in civilian clothing who had been with the police and had been seen talking to them outside the fuel-station just before they all descended on Potgieter, then walked up to the Afrikaner and kicked him hard, several times in the stomach. And then the unresisting Potgieter was arrested for 'resisting arrest' - while it could be clearly seen on the CCTV that he never did that , as well as for 'possession of an unlicensed firearm.' And while he was being handcuffed, the same man in civilian clothes kitcked him again.
His friend Grobler, who had undergone back-surgery three weeks earlier, said he told the cops about this fact and that he was unable to lie down - they forced him to the ground anyway.
Potgieter was taken to the Pretoria Moot police station, were he was kept in the police-cells until Tuesday, when he was granted bail of R2,000 at the Pretoria magistrate's court. It's not known exactly what he is going to be charged for: the CCTV-footage clearly showed that he did not resist arrest and moreover, he can prove that is gun is a legally-registered weapon. After his ordeal, Potgieter on Friday-afternoon was taken to hospital for an examination, as he had blood in his urine and was throwing up. The police refused to accept his complaint, refused to investigate his allegations that he was assaulted during his arrest, said Potgieter. SAPF colonel Neville Malila approached for comment by Beeld, professed to be ‘shocked and angry,’ acclaimed that ‘this were not the actions of the average police officer,’ and added that such incidents would be ‘would be investigated internally.”

Homeless old afrikaners teargassed in nelspruit
16:40 | Posted by Censorbugbear | | Edit Post

ShareElderly, homeless Afrikaner couple Chris and Chrissie Knoll are constantly being shunted from their shelters by Nelspruit municipality – with teargas.
http://bit.ly/kFBVKU - “Municipality refuses to offer the destitute old white couple any alternative accommodation before their forced-removal from a local park … even though this is required by law…
29 April 2011 – NELSPRUIT - "After countless complaints by residents and the Lowvelder newspaper, the homeless couple Chris and Chrissie Knol were chased out of a shack on municipal land between the spruit and Ehmke Street near the Village shopping centre, ‘ writes Lowvelder newspaper journalist Ivan Geurtse. He reports that the impoverished, elderly white couple now moved a bit further down and are living under a pink umbrella on the next corner.
“We keep the streets clean, we don’t steal copper’…
The couple said they live outdoors, but whenever it rained, they used to shelter beneath a roof at the shopping centre. When they were chased off there with teargas, they erected a better shack with a single bed and a roof which didn't leak. However local residents, fearful that 'other squatters' would move in as well, demanded that the municipality 'remove the culprits’. Which they did. Their shack was torn down and the couple now are back to living out in the open, protected only by a pink umbrella.
(source: Ivan Geurtse)
Chrissie said the municipality has been forcibly removing them twice, and illegally, without offering them alternative accommodation. The Knoll couple said they serve a purpose; they are keeping the streets clean in the area. Other squatters further down the spruit aren't as useful: instead they are removing the copper from stolen electric cables, "they said.

NO POLITICAL COMMENT FROM ANC, DA, ENGLISH-LANGUAGE MEDIA IGNORES FARM MURDERS:
The latest farm murders have reportedly ‘revulsed’ political party leaders from the Freedom Front and the Christian Democratic Party. Other political parties did not bother to comment. The FF and CDP spokesmen inaccurately referred to these inexplicable execution-style murders as ‘crimes’ however ; pandering to the ANC-regime’s claims that these all were just ‘ ordinary robberies’. The CDP and FF demanded that ‘the government stop handling “crime “with kid-gloves.’ The Afrikaans newspaper Rapport was the only one to publish these latest farm murders. The Sunday Times and other Sunday publications completely ignored them, as usual.
Former agricultural minister Cobus Dowry, who now is the highly-paid director of an agricultural union which allows only blacks-only membership, claimed in his statement to Rapport newspaper that he was ‘disgusted’ and that it was ‘high time that farmers get better protection’.
Hope Julius Malema is satisfied now… they keep on singing that song:
Christian-Democratic Alliance spokesman Rev Theunis Botha noted that since Zuma’s speech at parliament on 10 February, one farm attack has occurred every day. “Periodic condemnation of the ANC does not work especially when they insist on singing (banned) songs such as Shoot the Boer,’ he said.
Indeed: the ANC has spent millions in legal costs on appealing the banned song in the High Court, demanding that they must be allowed to continue singing the genical hatespeech song.
ANC spokesman Jackson Mthembu justified this demand by saying at the court that ‘you Afrikaners have shot us dead by the thousands in the townships. Now it’s our turn to shoot you dead.’
PROSECUTE MALEMA IN THE HAGUE – PETITION: We, the undersigned, support the prosecution of Julius Malema in terms of international law for inciting genocide against the Afrikaner minority of South Africa, singing songs like "Shoot the Boer". http://apps.facebook.com/petitions/1/prosecute-julius-malema-vervolg-julius-malema/
Mr Helgard Muller had just turned 66 years when he died from his wounds in the ambulance to the hospital. Mr Muller was ambushed an hour after two black men had arrived at the homestead, demanding money and keys to the safe. They tied up Mrs Muller and the housekeeper. When Mr Muller arrived home, he was murdered.
He is survived by three sons Nelis (40), Niel (39), Helgard jr. (27) , daughter Mrs Haneke Coetzee (36), eand seven grandchildren. Neighbour Eddie Muller, said ‘this makes a person feel bitter. I hope Julius Malema (ANC youth leader) is satisfied now. When they keep on singing that song that’s what will happen. “

Costa, Alberto, 44, Cloetesdal farmer Stellenbosch murdered by 2 black males
Alberto Costa, 44, farmer murdered, Cloetesdal, Stellenbosch
http://censorbugbear-reports.blogspot.com/2011/02/costa-albero-44-cloetesdal-farmer.html
2011-02-19 Stellenbosch. 'Die Burger' journalist Malani Venter reports that 44-year-old commercial farmer Alberto Costa was shot dead in a gunfight with armed black males who had dug a hole beneath the farm fence to attack his heavily-fortified Cloetesdal farm - located near the R304 highway and Khayamandi township. Mr Costa was armed with a shotgun and had gone to investigate why his dogs were barking. Costa also shot and injured one of the attackers: a blood trail indicates that the wounds may be 'serious', said provincial police spokesman Lt col André Traut. Mrs Zelda Costa and their children, 3 and 8 years old, were not physically injured.
The dead farmer was discovered when the police and a security guard from Stellenbosch Watch responded to an alarm from Cloetesdal at 02:50 said Traut.
The two suspects fled and their blood-trail was followed by a large task-force searching amongst the grape-vines and olive-trees which grow near the light-brown homestead, write Venter. The news media is being barred from the homestead, about 500m from the highway, as the entire area is being examined as a crime-scene. Rudy Buys, a long-time friend of the murdered farmer, said the entire Boland farming community is in mourning. Mr Costa was a successful and much-liked member of the community and he was everybody's pal.' Beyers Truter another nearby farmer also described Costa as a 'compassionate man'"He will be terribly missed. It's not only a case of a father being lost forever for his children, but also a widow who has to adjust because her husband no longer is there.'

Farm attack Balmoral injures Hough couple
Feb 18 2011 – Mrs Theresa Hough-van Zijl, who is a daughter of Balmoral farm foreman Mike Hough, confirmed on Face book’s Boere-Krisis-Aksie page that her father and mother just survived a farm attack earlier. “My dad is alive,’ she writes. “But he was shot, my mother was beaten, kicked and stabbed with a knife.” She said ‘everything was still very confused and urged the BKA-members to listen Radio Pretoria to obtain more information.
Gerhard Lochenberg wrote on Boere Krisis Aksie: “Mike Hough and his family were attacked last night on 17 Feb 2011 at 20h30 in his home at Balmoral. He was shot in the lower-body from outside through the window while asleep in his bed. His wife was attacked, a firearm was pushed against her head and the trigger pulled over – but the gun failed to fire. The attacker then tried to stab her with a knife but she fought against him and he cut her hand instead. There were four armed robbers – two attacked the home and two remained outside with a vehicle. When the Hough family’s son rushed up to help the attackers fled – but while fleeing they shot the youth. If the youth hadn’t shown up the entire family would have been murdered.

He allegedly was supposed to testify as a witness in a criminal case which was lodged by the ANC-regime against ex-32Battallion commander Willem Ratte, who was held in a police-jail for a month after his arrest - and went on a long hunger-strike to force his release..The ANC claimed in a highly publicised press-conference at the time of the arrest of Ratte and a group of Afrikaner youths he was teaching the carpentry trade to on the farm, that Ratte allegedly was involved in ‘terrorism plans’ and ‘treason’. SAPS commissioner Cele at the time also produced a rather dubious group of photos claiming to be a ‘confiscated arms cache’ which included (legal) air guns, gardening implements and legal, registered firearms. Police commissioner Cele claimed these were proof that this small group of Afrikaners was ‘planning a government takeover.’ However thus far none of this ‘terrorism and treason’ claims have been turned into any similar charges in a court room – although these inaccurrate news reports have been widely published.

Gerhard Lochenberg wrote on Boere Krisis Aksie: “Mike Hough and his family were attacked last night on 17 Feb 2011 at 20h30 in his home at Balmoral. He was shot in the lower-body from outside through the window while asleep in his bed. His wife was attacked, a firearm was pushed against her head and the trigger pulled over – but the gun failed to fire. The attacker then tried to stab her with a knife but she fought against him and he cut her hand instead. There were four armed robbers – two attacked the home and two remained outside with a vehicle. When the Hough family’s son rushed up to help the attackers fled – but while fleeing they shot the youth. If the youth hadn’t shown up the entire family would have been murdered. The gangsters fled with a firearm, money and stolen jewelery from the safe. The SAPS showed up many hours after they were called, strolled through the homestead, chattered away with each other in their black language and left again.” None of the family members reportedly were seriously injured and are at the farm.
