‘Terrorists ANC, EFF will pay’

- Citizen reporter

An Afrikaner man living in Oregon in the US believes he will “bring SA to a complete standstill” at the end of the month.

A video yesterday by Facebook user Helgard Muller appears to suggest an event is being planned in the US that will shake the foundation­s of South African politics.

The 40-year-old – a fan of the old South African flag – explains in his upload, which the social media site tagged as coming from his current address of Salem, Oregon, that there will be a march on May 31 this year to the White House in Washington DC to “announce and proclaim” the end of the ANC’s “terrorist rule” in South Africa.

“We had enough. They are targeting the white man, killing our women, our children; raping them; slaughteri­ng my people, young and old, on a daily basis by the tens of thousands,” he wrote.

He adds that he wants these “terrorist organisati­ons, the ANC and the EFF” to be held accountabl­e “by the Western World for their deeds and actions”.

How exactly this march will work and how many people will attend was not apparent from the video, but an earlier post by Muller from April 8 – which sports the old SA flag and a picture of US President Donald Trump – was shared 4 000 times and attracted more than 500 comments. Many of them made fun of his plan.

His StopTerror­Attacks.org site is not functional. Last month, other marches in Australia against farm attacks were reasonably well attended, primarily by expatriate South Africans.

Last week, Police Minister Bheki Cele revealed that since 2012, there were a total of 3 059 farm attacks reported.

Among the numerous posts against farm attacks and the old flag, was the one of Kafir Drive in the US that he appeared to find noteworthy.
