RUTHFULLY YOURS

The ANC’s National Democratic Revolution strategy compels dominating the Judiciary; it reads: “judicial independence to be undermined, in part by vesting most appointments to the bench in an ANC-dominated Judicial Service Commission.” It was therefore not unexpected that the Constitutional Court might rule in support of the slogan, “Kill the Boer”.

Sadly, what Ramaphosa actually intends, despite his grand terminology, is that there will be a redistribution of wealth and asset ownership in the form of either expropriation without compensation and/or a mandatory transfer of equity in businesses held by minorities to the black majority. NDR policies allow for this, and in fact the ANC Constitution mandates such actions….

A partial solution might be, as suggested by the commentator Rob Hersov, is that the US and other Western nations should bypass the ANC and instead support the Democratic Alliance (DA) — the official opposition at one stage (now part of the coalition) and the 2nd largest political party.

The DA is a centralist-conservative entity which runs the Western Cape Province – a state thriving in every way. Perhaps when it becomes known how successful the Western Cape under the DA has become, particularly with US and other outside investment, then demand for structural changes elsewhere might arise. In the interim, ominous dark clouds hang over the future of beautiful South Africa and its vibrant and amazing people.

There was a moment with a glimmer of hope for beleaguered South Africa. That moment appeared on May 21, 2025, with a meeting at the White House between US President Donald J. Trump and his South African counterpart, South African President Cyril Ramaphosa. The purpose of the meeting was to ‘reset’ the relationship between them after violently racist and anti-Western policies adopted by the largest political party in South Africa, the African National Congress (ANC), which heads a coalition government, were criticised by President Trump.

While Ramaphosa focused on trade at the meeting –- probably believing he could get away with neo-Marxist policies by tempting Trump with trade opportunities, such as availability of critical minerals — Trump instead brooded on the deep injustice against the country’s white minorities. Many onlookers believe they deserving what they are getting as a result of sometimes hundreds of years of discrimination against the Blacks, or “Coloureds,” by South Africa’s White European settlers.

A court ruling on Monday in Britain, if it is allowed to stand, could do nothing less than change the course of that country’s history, and that of the entire world. The U.K. has taken a decisive step away from the principles of free speech that it played a dominant role in formulating and giving to the world. There is serious cause for doubt now about whether the Sceptered Isle will even survive as a free society.

Officially, Hamit Coskun was found guilty of a “religiously aggravated public order offence.” His specific crime, however, was that he publicly burned a copy of the Qur’an, the Islamic holy book. It is not a crime to burn the Qur’an or any book in Britain; Coskun wasn’t convicted of burning the book as such, but of disturbing the public order by doing so. That means that he poses a problem for British law not insofar as he burned a book, which is permitted, but because in doing so he opened the door to public disturbances, which is not permitted. In other words, Hamit Coskun was convicted of a crime because Muslims might have rioted or committed jihad terror attacks over his actions.

In convicting Coskun, the U.K. has thus enshrined the heckler’s veto as part of British law. If he had burned a Bible, no one would have cared, and there would have been no possible disturbance to the “public order.” The threat of jihad violence is now guiding the course of British law and infringing upon the freedom of speech. The British government has now compounded the prospect of some Muslims reacting violently to the burning of the Qur’an by making it clear that whether they do or not, the culprit will have to face the wrath of the British state.

For his part, Coskun charged, quite correctly, that his conviction would “deter others from exercising their democratic rights to peaceful protest and freedom of expression.” Reading that, British authorities likely nodded their heads in agreement, as that’s exactly what the conviction is designed to do. Nevertheless, Coskun, who has made it clear that he intended his burning of the Qur’an to call attention to the crimes done in the name of Islam and in accord with its teachings, vowed that he would “continue to campaign against the threat of Islam.”

The networks organizing the EU’s migration policy wrap themselves in a humanitarian ambiguity that conceals their financial sources.

[A] fractured Christianity, devastated by wars and the hatreds they develop and nurture, has always been an easy prey to jihadist aggressions….This was particularly the case with the Islamization of the Byzantine Empire….

In the Eurabian context, the hatred and delegitimization of Israel provide a spiritual and theological weapon for the European trends of Islamophilia and anti-Semitism to abandon Judeo-Christianity and rally to Islam. The current war aims to replace Israel with Palestine, an entity that has never had historical existence and a creature forged by Christian anti-Semitism from the 1970s.

As for the Muslims, the word and notion of Palestine is absent from the Quran; their war against Israel is based on the jihadi ideology which requires that Islamic law rule the planet.

None of the sacred Arab and Muslim texts mentions a geographical location in the biblical Hebrew territories, nor any historical episode that would justify a connection with land in today’s Israel.

Europe never condemned the military invasions by five Arab States that seized and colonized Jewish lands according to both the Balfour and San Remo Declarations. There, their millenary old Jewish population were killed or expelled, their houses pillaged, their synagogues burned. Europe felt no need to provide help. It is true that just three years before, it was busy deporting Jews to the extermination camps spread over its territory.

[T]he 1923 Lausanne Treaty…. legitimized a sovereign State for the Jewish people in their historic homeland with secure borders from Gaza to the Jordan River…. Those decisions ratified by the League of Nations are endorsed by its successor, the UN and cannot be nullified.

In Islam, Jews and Christians are cut from the same cloth. What is done to Jews is done to Christians as well, and vice-versa…. This is the great lesson given to us by the knowledge of dhimmitude and for this reason, forbidden. Yet we can see by our own eyes Europe collapsing….

Bat Ye’or is an Egyptian-born British author and historian, who has focused on the history of religious minorities in the Muslim world and on the geopolitics of the European Union. She is known for introducing the West to the concept of dhimmitude [see below], and forging the concept of Eurabia.

Canlorbe: Could you start by reminding us of the motivations of the networks that orchestrate the EU’s migration policy and its anti-Israeli stance?

Bat Ye’or: The motivations of the networks in these two areas—the EU’s migration policy and anti-Zionism—are different but converge in their cumulative harmful effectiveness. This cumulative effect results from the deliberate policy of the Arab League and the Organization of Islamic Cooperation to link their relations with EU countries at every level to a European anti-Israeli policy.

“Over the years, the global focus and discourse on slavery has concentrated on the Trans-Atlantic trade that featured American and European merchants. One other trade has however remained largely ignored, and at times has even been treated as a taboo subject, despite being a key component of African history owing to the devastating impact it has had on the continent, its generations and its people’s way of life,” writes the Kenyan journalist Bob Koigi.

The Arab Muslim slave trade, also known as the trans-Saharan trade or Eastern slave trade, is noted as the longest slave trade, having occurred for more than 1,300 years while taking millions of Africans away from their continent to work in foreign lands in the most inhumane conditions.

Koigi further explains:

Male slaves would work as field workers or guards at the harems. To ensure that they never reproduced in case they got intimate with their fellow female slaves, the men and boys were castrated and made eunuchs in a brutal operation by which the majority would lose their lives in the process.

When Muslims conquered much of Africa, indigenous blacks were converted to Islam, either by sword or persuasion. Tragically, the Arab Islamic slavery of Africans is not a thing of the past. It is an ongoing human rights abuse prevalent in some African nations. The Islamic Republic of Mauritania, a country in northwest Africa, is one of the most pressing cases where racial slavery of Africans is widespread.

The Arabo-Berber rulers of Mauritania still enslave Africans. Blacks are wholly owned, may be given as wedding gifts or loaned out to friends.

Since its independence from France in 1960, Mauritania has been an Islamic republic. The Constitutional Charter of 1985 declares that Islam is the state religion and Sharia is the law of the land.

“Mauritania is consistently ranked as the worst place in the world for slavery, with tens of thousands still trapped in total servitude across the country,” reports Minority Rights Group.

As if this weekend couldn’t get more chaotic as Los Angeles descends into a pro-illegal alien rager that’s required the deployment of National Guard units, in Colombia, conservative presidential candidate Miguel Uribe is reportedly in stable but critical condition after being shot in the head during a campaign event in Bogota (via Bloomberg):

Colombian presidential candidate Miguel Uribe Turbay was shot at a campaign event in Bogota on Saturday in an act reminiscent of the drug-fueled political violence that roiled the nation in the 1980s and early 1990s. 

The 39-year old senator from the opposition Democratic Center party was rushed to a medical center. He was stabilized there before being moved to a major hospital in north Bogota, according to the Attorney General’s office. 

Footage posted by local media showed Uribe’s head and back covered in blood.

The gunman has been detained, Bogota Mayor Carlos Galan said on X. Attorney General Luz Camargo said that a 15-year-old youth was arrested, after being beaten up by members of the public, and that authorities captured a 9mm gun. The minor is currently in a medical center, she said.

December 19, 2022, Ukrainian Canadian Myron Demkiw, a 30-year veteran of the Toronto Police Services, was sworn in as the chief of police in Toronto. Mr. Demkiw, who was born to Ukrainian parents and raised in Toronto, grew up as a proud member of his community and was an active member of Plast Ukrainian Scouting Organization in his youth. During the Second World War, Plast scouts were used as allies by Nazi Germany. After the war, the Plast organization was preserved among Ukrainian diaspora in Australia, Argentina, Canada, United Kingdom, Germany and the United States.

Plast  is a Ukrainian youth organization for patriotic, inclusive self-development. Patriotic, because Plast nurtures a love of the Ukrainian community and fosters a willingness to work for its wellbeing. Plast members are effective citizens of countries in which they live. Inclusive – because Plast encourages its members to fulfill their potential, able to both act independently and to cooperate in a group and acquire leadership skills. In Canada, Plast established branches across the country. Today there are Plast centres in Montreal, Ottawa, Toronto, St.Catharines, Winnipeg, Edmonton and Calgary. Plast in Canada aided in the development of the reborn organization in Ukraine, often with the support and sponsorship of Canadian government programs.

Mr. Demkiw is the top police official in a city of some 3 million people, heading the largest municipal police agency in Canada.  Under his command, he oversees 5,000 police officers and 2,000 civilian employees with a budget of 1.2 billion dollars. Mr. Demkiw studied law at the University of Toronto, later completed university courses in policing, management and psychology, and graduated from the Police Leadership Program at the Rotman School of Management at the University of Toronto. He said:

“Although I have many priorities in my new role, my first is improving trust in our service and working with our communities to earn and maintain that trust. Secondly, under my leadership, we will accelerate police reform and the professionalization of the Service by continuing to collaborate with our communities to implement their recommendations and by exploring new opportunities to become the modern, community-centric Service our city deserves and expects. And, as my third priority, I will continue working with our members and residents, community organizations, government agencies and our partners in law enforcement to ensure that every resident in every neighbourhood is safe and thriving.”
