The Real Masters Of South Africa

Started by Maritz, Mon 19 Oct 2009

For the last week South Africa has been burning ... you`ll be forgiven if you think this is the bad old Apartheid days. Before this we had two months of mass action ... thousands of niggers marching down main roads destroying everything in their path. The reason ... poor service delivery ! The assholes that the niggers put in power.



I say this is just an excuse ... the real masters are now coming to the fore ... the south african communist party [sacp] ... to take control of the country ... and smash any opposition ... black or White ! The communist has already warned the "right" that there wil be nowhere to hide ... I disagree ... South Africa is big ... this time our woman and children will be safe, you hammer and sickle scum ... thanks for the warning !



[Source : Mail & Gaurdian]

The battle lines have been drawn between moderates and leftists in the ANC following a stern warning by ANC president Jacob Zuma that the left should not flex its muscles over deployments in government. Tensions in the tripartite alliance surfaced after ANC national executive committee (NEC) member Billy Masetlha warned in an interview with the Mail & Guardian last week that the South African Communist Party and Cosatu should not try to impose their socialist views on the ANC. [what a joke !]

In what is likely to heighten insecurity among ANC nationalists [?!???] Cosatu leaders have told the M&G of their plan to push for a "socialist" economic policy at the alliance summit scheduled for next month. The M&G has learned that Masetlha's comments are the culmination of events that started at a national executive committee meeting three weeks ago, in which Zuma referred to a "tendency" among the ANC's allies to try to meddle in state appointments to ensure that their members get jobs in government and thus influence economic policy.

The discussion arose after the party's Eastern Cape conference in September, where Phumulo Masualle, the SACP national treasurer, was elected provincial chairperson over Eastern Cape finance minister Mcebisi Jonas. In a bid to win votes for Masualle at the conference a pamphlet was distributed setting out the SACP's plans to clean up corruption in government and make changes in economic policy, particularly using state intervention to create jobs.

The SACP's national leadership explained to the NEC that the party had distanced itself from the pamphlet, former arts and culture minister Pallo Jordan told the M&G. After the conference the Eastern Cape SACP also released a statement saying the party will "support the new leadership in making changes where necessary", implying that a provincial cabinet reshuffle is on the cards. [to make room for the REAL masters !]

According to members at the recent NEC meeting, Zuma insisted that ANC deployees serve in government on an ANC ticket and that the alliance cannot be involved in deployment. Masualle was widely expected to reshuffle the cabinet and his associates made it clear that Eastern Cape Premier Noxolo Kieviet's days were numbered. But the implication of Zuma's declaration was that the decision rests with the NEC.

Masualle's election sparked anxiety among ANC moderates about the growing power of SACP members in the ruling party. It was this that prompted Masetlha to publicly express disquiet about Cosatu and the SACP's push for a socialist agenda in the ANC. Although Masetlha's statements were echoed privately by a number of ANC leaders this week, few were willing to publicly support his stance. The ANC distanced itself from his comments.

But ANC NEC member and Limpopo Premier Cassel Mathale said that all alliance partners should understand that Cabinet ministers were ANC members and that they were not appointed because they belonged to Cosatu or the SACP. "The president appointed them because they are ANC members in good standing and he had faith in them to carry out the mandate," Mathale said.

Mathale said it should be expected that both the SACP and Cosatu would want to influence what happens in the country, but he said that did not constitute a fight for the control of the ANC. But he reminded those aiming to change the ANC's direction to socialism that the ANC alone is the ruling party in the country". [another joke !] When we attained democracy the colour of the flag that was raised was black, green and gold. We did not raise a red flag". [LOL !]

Mathale compared the ANC to a bus carrying different passengers who might be heading in different directions. "When that bus went to Polokwane, people thought delegates had agreed on the long-term direction of the bus, but there was no pact". Young Communist League national secretary Buti Manamela this week interpreted Masetlha's comments as an attempt to isolate the SACP and Cosatu.

"We cannot go back to that painful period where communists were seen as a threat," Manamela said, adding : "Masetlha is threatening Zuma with a revolt at the next conference of the ANC on the basis that he is standing for a principle of uniting the alliance. We will never allow that to happen". In an interview this week Cosatu president Sdumo Dlamini revealed that the federation would propose a new economic growth path at the alliance summit. He warned that unless Zuma's new administration made a significant shift from its policies, the new ANC's priorities would remain a pipe dream.

"There's no way we can achieve these priorities in the current neo-liberal mode. We need an alternative to Gear [growth employment and redistribution policy]. For us, socialism is the way to go. Polokwane signalled a shift from neo-liberal policies." It is understood that Cosatu and the SACP will present a united front at the summit to push for ANC adoption of socialist policies, including the nationalisation of strategic assets in critical sectors of the economy, notably in the chemical, energy and mining industries.

Companies targeted for nationalisation include Sasol and Mittal Steel. The left will also push for the establishment of a state bank and mining company to accelerate development. Cosatu also wants changes in monetary and fiscal policy, including interest rates and with regard to the budget surplus. Dlamini said Cosatu would put pressure on Zuma to amend the Constitution to allow some of the powers vested in the treasury to be shifted to Economic Development Minister Ebrahim Patel.

He said Cosatu was worried that Patel has not been given sufficient capacity to develop economic policy. "He [Patel] is sharing office space with Trade and Industry Minister Rob Davies. Our view is that the department must lead us in developing economic policies," said Dlamini. A member of Zuma's executive, who asked not to be named, said that the ANC was unlikely to accede to Cosatu's demands, as there had already been a major shift in the government's economic stance.

"Gear does not exist any more. There might still be some elements of it, such as inflation targeting, but these were not key to Gear. The key elements were 6% economic growth and privatisation of state assets. The government has abandoned this. The focus now is on addressing persistent realities of underdevelopment and unemployment, which have risen sharply in the past 15 years".

The M&G understands that at this week's alliance political council, Cosatu and the SACP were told to stop attacking ANC leaders in public and engage with issues. "There was consensus that people have to move away from personalities and engage with the strategic planning of government," said an ANC NEC member who attended the alliance meeting.
Jordan said Masetlha's comments reflected the age-old battle in the ANC between communists and the moderates and was "old hat".

JEWS AND COMMUNISM IN SOUTH AFRICA

Against the international background of heavy jewish involvement in communism, did the South African experience show any parallels ? Perhaps the best way to gain an insight into this topic is to quote from four books, three of which are by Jewish authors. The first book is "A history of communism in South Africa" by Dr Henry R Pike - 1985. I`ll do one each week.

A large number of jews have worked to promote communism in South Africa, as Pike's book indicates. Many of these jews were involved in the organization of trade unions, particularly black trade unions. Some of the names mentioned by Pike are A. Z. Berman - a noted marxist` who headed the Industrial Socialist League in Cape Town; the communist writer David Shub, Solly Sachs, secretary of the Garment Workers Union and expelled from and then readmitted to the South African Communist Party, Bennie Weinbren who directed the Non-European Trade Union Federation, Issy Diamond, Abraham Levy, Hymie Levin, Issie Wolfson, Julius Lewin, Louis Joffe, Dr Max Joffe, Molly [Zelikowitz] Wolton, Lazar Bach, Rebecca [Notlowitz] Bunting, Fanny Klenerman, Michael Harmel, Sam Kahn, Katy Kagan, Eli Weinberg, Yetta Barenblatt, Hymie Barsel, Leon and Norman Levy, Lionel Forman, Jacqueline and Rowley Arenstein, Errol and Dorothy Shanley, Monty Berman, Bertram Hirson and Neville Rubin.

Dr Pike [p 212-3] quotes from a South African Government Gazette Extraordinary [vol VI 16 Nov 1962 pp 2-28] which listed "persons who have been office-bearers, officers, members or active supporters of the Communist Party of South Africa". The list included 66 "clearly identifiable as Jews". At the time, the South African population was approximately 3 million Whites, while the South African jewish population was 110 000 [World Almanac 1958 p270]. So there was approximately one jew for every 26 Whites in the country. If there had been an equal distribution of Communist involvement between Whites and jews, the jewish membership of the Communist Party should have been one-twenty-sixth the White gentile representation. Instead, we find slightly more jews as members. In other words, jews were almost thirty times more likely to become members of the Communist Party than were White gentiles. If jews with non-jewish names were also counted, the ratio would be likely to have been considerably higher.

In theory this could be explained away as simple jewish concern for the welfare of the underdog, the lowest classes, and in the South African context, evidence of jewish sympathies across racial barriers, or non-racism. In testing such a hypothesis to see whether this is indeed the case, we can look at another instance. Such concerns have been notoriously, and very conspicuously, almost totally absent in the protracted conflict in the Middle East. There, international jewish support has been overwhelmingly and steadfastly in favor of the jewish israelis, and not of the palestinians who have lost their country, and in thousands of cases their lives, to the violent settlers from Eastern Europe and America. After all, the entire territory was under Palestinian political control until 1947. The jewish population of the area in 1917 was a mere 7% of the 700 000 inhabitants. The other 93% were arabs. In 1947 the united nations under tremendous US pressure gave the zionists, who owned only about 6% of the land, 56% of the territory of Palestine. Since then, there has been a steady take-over of the remaining territory by force, violence, warfare, bribery and stealth.

The second book we look at is "Jews and Zionism : The South African Experience", by gideon shimoni - 1980. This book appears to have been written for a jewish readership. Two extended quotes from the book will serve as a summary of the situation some decades ago.

Dr shimoni was born in South Africa to parents from Lithuania, but settled in israel where he lectured at the hebrew university of jerusalem and where he gained post-graduate degrees in jewish history. While bitterly contemptuous of South Africa under the Apartheid system, Dr shimoni in effect identifies with the concept of geographically based ethnic groupings that was the basis of the South African system. This kind of irony, not to say hypocrisy, is typical of jews opposed to "racism" in Europe, the US or South Africa.

Dr shimoni writes of "the extraordinary salience of jewish individuals in the White opposition to the regime of Apartheid. Throughout this period jewish names kept appearing in every facet of the struggle : amongst reformist liberals; in the radical communist opposition; in the courts, whether as defendants or as counsel for the defense; in the lists of bannings and amongst those who fled the country to evade arrest. Their prominence was particularly marked in the course of the Treason Trial which occupied an important place in the news media throughout the second half of the 1950's. This trial began in December 1956, when 156 people were arrested on charges of treason in the form of a conspiracy to overthrow the state by violence and to replace it with a state based on communism. Of the twenty-three arrested, more than half of them were jews. They included Yetta Barenblatt, Hymie Barsel, Lionel [Rusty] Bernstein, Leon Levy, Norman Levy, Sydney Shall, Joe Slovo, Ruth [First] Slovo, Sonia Bunting, Lionel Forman, Isaac Horvitch, Ben Turok, Jacqueline Arenstein, Errol Shanley, Dorothy Shanley. To top it all, at one stage in the trial the defense counsel was led by israel Maisels, while the prosecutor was none other than Oswald Pirow. The juxtaposition was striking : Maisels, the prominent jewish communal leader, defending those accused of trying to overthrow White supremacy; Pirow, the extreme Afrikaner Nationalist and former Nazi sympathizer, defending White supremacy." [pp. 227-8].

"In this extended five-year period between the emergence of violent opposition and its effective suppression, the prominent involvement of individual jews was in the public eye more than ever before. This was even more so than in the dramatic circumstances of the 'Rivonia arrests'. On 11 July 1963 the police raided the home of Arthur Goldreich in Rivonia near Johannesburg, where it captured, by surprise, the leadership cadre of the Umkonto we Sizwe underground. Seventeen people were arrested, five of them jews. They were : Arthur Goldreich, Lionel Bernstein, Hilliard Festenstein, Dennis Goldberg and Bob Hepple. There was an overwhelming impression that jews were in the forefront of the radicals who were trying to overthrow the system of White supremacy in South Africa. When the secret African Resistance Movement [ARM] was crushed during 1964, it again became evident that many jews were involved. One of its founders was identified as Monty Berman, others were Adrian Leftwich and Bertram [Baruch] Hirson. Among those who were associated with ARM were Neville Rubin and Michael Schneider, others implicated were Frederick and Rhoda Prager, Raymond Eisenstein and Hugh Lewin." [pp. 232-3].

Dr shimoni records with obvious distaste the wording of an Afrikaans letter in a newspaper criticizing this fundamentally hypocritical proclivity of jews : "They [the Jews] themselves are the most exclusive Apartheid people, yet they exert themselves here for integration". While jews themselves have shown no intention to integrate or merge with the african masses, they have been hyper-critical of mainstream Whites who are reluctant to follow this route, criticizing churches with segregationist policies, while their synagogues have remained ethnically 100% jewish.

The third book is, "Cutting Through the Mountain : Interviews with South African Activists" Edited by Immanuel Suttner (Viking-Penguin, England and USA 1997).

This book also appears to have been written for a jewish readership. It is a thick expensively bound book of over 600 pages, financially supported by the Liberty Life Foundation created by the jewish mega-capitalist Donald Gordon. Suttner says "a disproportionate number of individual jews played a part in transforming South Africa into a more just society. There are two streams : those who fought 'within the system' as jurists, members of parliament, via the media, or in civil society, and those who entered 'illegal' organizations which were socialist, communist or mass-based in character." (p.2) He says the book "welcomes [these Jews] back not only as worthy South Africans, socialists, communists or liberals, but as worthy Jews" (p.3). Some of the "remarkable people" (page vii) who are heroes of the book include :

Taffy Adler who was involved in the 1970s and '80s in the "formation and consolidation of the black trade union movement". His father was a Lithuanian jew who emigrated to South Africa in 1926 and who "was tremendously loyal to stalin and Russian communism" right up to the fall of the Soviet Union in 1989. His uncle, Michael Harmel, became general secretary of the South African Communist Party.

Ray Alexander [Rachel Alexandrowich] arrived in South Africa from Latvia and joined the SA Communist Party five days later. She played a leading role in the organization of trade unions. She was married to Jack Simons, a "devoted communist" and lecturer at the University of Cape Town.

Pauline Podbrey [Podbrez] born in Lithuania came to South Africa at the age of eleven. She joined the communist youth league, run by Max Joffe, and the related Labor League of Youth, run by Hilda Bernstein. Of the communist party she says "the majority of the members were Jewish ... looking back on it now, it seems as if everybody was Jewish". (*p52). She married a prominent indian trade unionist and communist party leader, resulting in her mother being ostracized by the South African jewish community, although it has been and still is normal practice for this community to depict White non-jews as despicable prejudiced racists.

Joe Slovo born in Lithuania, came to South Africa where he joined the young communist league at the age of sixteen. He became a central member of the communist party of South Africa and a "hard-line stalinist", becoming general secretary in 1986. He concentrated on building up umkhonto we sizwe, the "armed wing" of the ANC, becoming its chief of staff and head strategist in the campaign of bombings directed at civilian targets and other acts of terror. He only abandoned his commitment to stalinism and Soviet-style communism when the Soviet bloc started falling apart in the late 1980s and it became necessary to do so. A key strategist representing the ANC in the negotiations with De Klerk's government in the hand over of power, he became a minister in Mandela's Cabinet when the ANC came to power in 1994. He died of cancer a few years later. His daughter published an autobiographical book describing her father's affair with a jewish communist friend's wife and his utter refusal to acknowledge the son born of this relationship.
Gill Marcus, the daughter of parents involved with the communist party, a long-time member of the party and of the ANC, is now a Deputy Governor of the South African Reserve Bank after being a member of the first Mandela Cabinet.

Ronnie Kasrils became a central figure in the South African communist party and head of military intelligence of the ANC's military wing. He became Deputy Minister of Defense in the Mandela government, and is now Minister of Water Affairs and Forestry.

Nigger Out ... Jew In

With every passing day in SA ... the masters behind the scene ... come to the party. The noose draws tighter ... total enslavement a step closer. Most Whites are waking up to the fact that the jew is taking over from the nigger. Jews put the anc in power to rob the Whites. Now, years later ... the niggers are screwing-up, something the cunning jew knew would happen, thats why they put them in power in the first place. The "people" now demand that the dumb idiots be removed ... only to be replaced by the real leaders ... the jew. Lets look at some facts of this jew :

Gill Marcus [http://jwa.org/encyclopedia/article/marcus-gill], who never married, was born in Johannesburg in 1949. Her grandparents were from Lithuania but her parents, Molly and Nathan, were born in South Africa. Both her parents were members of the South African Communist Party and from an early age Gill was made aware of the iniquities of apartheid; the Marcus home, open to people across the color line, was very different from that of the average white South African household.

She joined the Communist Party and the African National Congress (ANC) and worked for the latter's information-gathering department, becoming deputy secretary for information and, for fifteen years, editor of a news bulletin covering events in South Africa. Having proved herself in the erstwhile male province of finance, she became Deputy Finance Minister in 1996 and then Deputy Governor of the South African Reserve Bank in 1999.

Someone you dont want running the central bank ... safe keeping your gold !  &:(

Mboweni Out ... Marcus In

President Jacob Zuma announced at a hastily convened Sunday media conference that he would appoint current Absa chairperson Gill Marcus to take the helm of the South African Reserve Bank. Despite the last-minute nature of the conference, Zuma denied that it was an odd time to make the announcement.

Journalists were informed on Sunday morning that there would be an important briefing at the Union Buildings in Pretoria. Zuma made the announcement about Marcus's appointment at the briefing, which was also attended by Finance Minister Pravin Gordhan, deputy president Kgalema Mothlante, Mboweni and Marcus.

"I have re-appointed Mr Mboweni as Reserve Bank governor. However, he has indicated his wish to leave in November 2009 to pursue other interests. Given the indication from Mr Mboweni, I have therefore decided to designate Gill Marcus as governor of the Reserve Bank with effect from the 9th of November 2009." Mboweni declined to offer any reason for his decision to leave other than to say that he'd have time to go fishing:o :o :o

But while Zuma had only good words for Mboweni, it is no secret that the governor is unpopular with key Zuma supporters, including trade unions and communists. These parties argue that Mboweni has focused too narrowly on inflation targeting at the expense of economic growth and employment. On Sunday, the South African Communist Party (SACP) issued a press release welcoming the appointment of Marcus as governor.  ???

Marcus said it was far too early to say whether the Bank's policy of inflation targeting would be abolished. She said she expects there will be lots of debate on the matter. Marcus said her leadership style will be one of consultation and engagement. Marcus is no stranger to the Reserve Bank. She served as deputy governor from 1999 to 2004. She also served as deputy minister of finance from 1996 to 1999.

When Mboweni's contract was renewed by then-president Thabo Mbeki in 2005, Marcus left the Reserve Bank. It was speculated at the time that she was gunning for the top job, and, by leaving, was effectively calling Mbeki's bluff.
