There is a country which nobody wants.
From the 1950’s through towards the end of the 1980’s the world didn’t want it, because it was a symbol of anti-multiculturalism. And the world, in its self-imposed guilt for colonialism and segregation and nationalism, needed multiculturalism to make them feel better about themselves. So the country wasn’t regarded as part of the family of states.
Then everything changed and that country became part of the family of multiculturalist states and all seemed well. Apart from the fact that now the world doesn’t want that country again. And there are a number of reasons for this:
- The world realises that multiculturalism is a failure. Even the most liberal world leaders admitted this at one time or the other. Angela Merkel admitted it, David Cameron admitted it, Nicolas Sarkozy admitted it. Spanish Prime Minister Jose Maria Aznar admitted it, Australian Prime Minister John Howard admitted it. Even Vladimir Putin says so.
- The country, which was supposed to become the most shining symbol of the success of multiculturalism, is now the most pathetic example of the failure of it. Inequality, racism, crime, corruption, violence, poverty and bloodshed aren’t really elements of “a good story to tell.” Quite the contrary.
- The country has become a burden to the world. It is constantly borrowing money and constantly causing embarrassment. The Al Bashir debacle is an example of it, when the president of the country allowed a criminal, Internationally wanted for crimes against humanity, not only to visit, but to escape capture! And then that president decided to try and avoid explaining himself by announcing that he intends to withdraw from the International Courts of Justice!
The people of the country doesn’t really want it either. In an online poll more than two thirds of the Afrikaner people (and in this I include English, Greek, Portuguese and other language groups) indicated that they want self-determination. The black population doesn’t want it either.
Some time ago this was clearly stated by a Black leader:
“The flag is not the country’s flag, while Azania must rise, South Africa should fall.”
This was the opinion of Pastor Xola Skosana during the funeral of the murdered student leader and radical activist, Philela Gilwa, at the Makhaza district in Cape Town. Gilwa was the leader of the Ses’khona People’s Rights Movement and was stabbed by seven men with knives in Khayelitsha. He was also suspended from the University of the Free State where he was one of the ringleaders of the violent and vandalist #FeesMustFall campaign and responsible for burning the image of former president CR Swart. Pastor Skosana set the new SA flag on fire when he said this flag was not his flag.
It is of course an unfortunate time to declare the rise of “Azania” as we will commemorated the St James Church massacre on 25 July 1993, in a month or so. In that incident 11 people were killed and 58 wounded by 4 terrorists of the Azanian People Liberation Army (APLA). Bloody, senseless, cruel murder of people in a church in the name of Azania! Ironical that, when Dylan Roof perpetrated the same act in the USA a year or so ago, he was condemned and sentenced to death. The four terrorists received amnesty and walks the streets.
Maybe that is the main reason why nobody wants this country – there is no accountability, only a sense of selfish entitlement.
So what do you do with a country you don’t want? You change it. You make it work. You go back to the drawing board. In that lies the only real solution. Give the Afrikaner people a fair, decent proportion of this “country that doesn’t work”, to determine their future on. And do the same for every other nationality in this country. And if the Black population wants to call their portion “Azania”, then let them.
In that way, there is a future for everybody. But with the rapid and ever increasing slide of multiculturalist philosophy into the abyss, there is hardly any hope that this geographical construct called “South Africa” can ever become a good story to tell.
