... dat daar heel waarskynlik wel baie minder van die aaklige misdade
in Zimbabwe is wat SA so teister.
Beslis minder kar hijackings. Daar is nie karre aan die loop om te
hijack nie. En as jy een gehijack kry, het jy in elk geval nie petrol
om mee weg te jaag nie.
Besides, wat gaan jy met dit doen? Daar is nie petrol in die land
nie...
Beslis nie bankrowe nie. Om dit die moeite werd te maak, moet jy 'n
paar triljoen zim dollars steel. Dit beteken die bankrowers moet 'n
paar vragmotors reg he om die vragte banknote mee weg te ry.
Maar met 66 000% inflasie moet jy dit binne 'n dag uitgee of die
waarde is weg!
Maar waarop? Die winkelrakke is leeg!
Omtrent niks shoplifting nie, want daar is niks meer op die rakke in
die winkels nie.
En as jy iemand op straat sou mug, wat gaan jy steel? 'n Paar ou
opgeloopte skoene? 'n Paar jeans met gate in?
Huisrooftogte ook nie, want al wat waarde in Zim het, is kook-olie en
suiker en die huise het dit nie op die rakke nie (want dit is nie meer
verkrygbaar nie)

Hallo Dave ... Ek was so week op vakansie, en for the life of me wil my MTN
3G kaart my nie op die news groups toelaat nie. Behalwe as ek dit deur
Google doen. Maar ek is nou weer terug by die werk en is besig om in te
haal.
In het artikel wordt een paar keer de term 'Zuid-Afrikaans' gebruikt.
Hoe noemen Afrikaners zelf hun taal? Afrikaans? In de usenetgroep
news:nl.taal is daar al dikwijls en heftig over gediscussieerd.
En maken jullie je geen zorgen bij volgende passage in de tekst:
"Veel Nederlanders kunnen met moeite een glimlach onderdrukken als ze
"een Afrikaner horen praten over een 'broeikas'(een couveuse), een
"'hijsbak'(een lift) of een 'foppil' (een placebo). Het is wat
"kinderen ook hebben: ontwapenend en tegelijkertijd heel treffend.
Jullie zijn in goed gezelschap want als ze Vlamingen horen praten
reageren ze net hetzelfde:-)
Graag wil ek van hierdie geleentheid gebruik maak om op U knoppie te
druk asseblief.
Die SA Magte Klub is besig met `n Projek, "Projek Helde" /
Geskiedenis.
Ons is besig met `n geweldige projek om ons Geskiedenis op databasisse
vas te le.
Help ons asseblief en lees gerus die volgende dokument wat afgelaai

Naiewe mense glo maklik die idiote wat die Suid Afrikaner beskuldig as
die beginners van apartheid, maar lees bietjie verder terwyl ek julle
vertel van die Nasionaliste van 1893 en vroeër:
**************************************
Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi (Mahatma Gandhi)
Gandhi had arrived in Durban, South Africa, in 1893 to serve as legal
counsel to the merchant Dada Abdulla. In June, he was asked by Dada
Abdulla to undertake a trip to Pretoria in the Transvaal, a journey
which first took Gandhi to Pietermaritzburg. There, Gandhi was seated
in the first-class compartment, since he had purchased a first-class
ticket. A European who entered the compartment hastened to summon
railway officials, who ordered Gandhi to remove himself to the van
compartment, since 'coolies' and non-whites were apparently not
permitted in first-class compartments. Gandhi protested and produced
his ticket, but was warned that he would be forcibly removed if he did
not make a gracious exit. As Gandhi refused to comply with the order,
he was summarily pushed out of the train, and his luggage was tossed
out on to the platform. The train steamed away, and Gandhi withdrew to
the waiting room. "It was winter," Gandhi was to write in his
autobiography, and "the cold was extremely bitter. My over-coat was in
my luggage, but I did not dare to ask for it lest I should be insulted
again, so I sat and shivered" (Part II, Ch. 8). He says he began to
think of his "duty": ought he to stay back and fight for his "rights",
or should he return to India? His own "hardship was superficial",
"only a symptom of the deep disease of colour prejudice."
In such circumstances did Gandhi first become aware of racism and of
the grave inequities to which people are subjected on the grounds of
color; and consequently Gandhi was to embark on a journey that would
take him far beyond Pretoria.
Al jare lank vertel ek aan julle, met bewyse, dat die Engelse die
beginners van apartheid in Suid Afrika was.
'n Ander voorbeeld het ek al meer kere hier genoem:
Seretse Khama was born in 1921 in Serowe, in what was then the
Bechuanaland Protectorate.
n June of 1947, Khama met Ruth Williams, an English clerk at Lloyd's
of London, and after a year of courtship, married her.
However, the international ramifications of his marriage would not be
so easily resolved. Having banned interracial marriage under the
apartheid system, South Africa could not afford to have an interracial
couple ruling just across their northern border. As Bechuanaland was
then a British protectorate (not a colony), the South African
government immediately exerted pressure to have Khama removed from his
chieftainship. Britain's Labour government, then heavily in debt from
World War II, could not afford to lose cheap South African gold and
uranium supplies. There was also a fear that South Africa might take
more direct action against Bechuanaland, through economic sanctions or
a military incursion. The British government therefore launched a
parliamentary enquiry into Khama's fitness for the chieftainship.
Though the investigation reported that he was in fact eminently fit
for the rule of Bechuanaland, "but for his unfortunate marriage",
the government ordered the report suppressed (it would remain so for
thirty years), and exiled Khama and his wife from Bechuanaland in
1951. In 1952, a new Conservative government declared the exile
permanent.
Dis pinksternag en voor die kaggelvuur
terwyl ek verse skryf, weet ek die mooi
geskryf is eintlik boos en hierdie uur
moet ek my bundel in die vlamme gooi
as ek God suiwerder wil dien ... Maar blaaie
en die boek se band krul om en slaan
tot vlerke oop dat daar met geel-blou swaaie
'n engel toornig in die klipboog staan:
"Jy het die waarheid in die vuur verbrand,
maar nou gebied die Here God dat jy
ook in die gramadoelas van jou land
Sy wondere sien en koninkryk uitbrei." -
" En tog, hoe moet ek weet dat onvermom
selfs jy van God en nie die Duiwel kom?"
Dis al lank gelede dat ek nog hier was..
Ek lees in my vriendin sy e-pos daar is 'n permanente kragkrisis in
Suid-Afrika?
Ek het daaroor 'n beriggie gelees in my koerant hier in België, maar
dis reeds enige weke gelede..
Is daardie kragkrisis nog steeds besig?
Hoekom daar is kragonderbrekings in Suid-Afrika? En hoekom dit duur so
lank?
Is hier iemand wat my daaroor 'n tegniese uitleg kan gee?
