Default Boere Declare Sovereignty in South Africa

Does this mean I'll start getting emails from Adv. Cetswayo and Mr. LH
Mapholaba requesting my banking info so they can deposit untold millions of
US dollars in it, after of course I take my 10%?

History is underway in South Africa once again, as the Boere, an
indigenous white ethnic nation in its own right, declare their
sovereignty and push for a separate homeland within the country that
saw blacks legally disband the Apartheid system some 10 years ago.

Dr. Lets Pretorius, Spokesman for the Boer nation (Boerevolk), and Mr.
Riaan Smith, an attorney, met with met with Adv. Cetswayo and Mr. LH
Mapholaba from the office of the Speaker of the South African
Parliament on May 25th to discuss The Majuba Declaration, the
Boervolk's formal demand for an independent homeland. The Cape Town
meeting was organized by The Boerevolk Freedom Foundation, which is
driving the push for self-determination.

The following statements were put forward during the meeting:

1. The Boerevolk is a definite entity and must be recognized as such.

2. There is a distinct difference between a Boer and an Afrikaner.

3. The Majuba Declaration is legally sound, based on section 235 of the
Constitution of South Africa.

Mr. Smith and Dr. Pretorius then demanded that:

1. The Boerevolk Freedom Foundation, and the Boerevolk be
institutionally recognized. The Foundation will be the formal
mouthpiece of the Boerevolk until the election of representatives or
deputies of the Boerevolk has been held.

2. A forum be created to discuss related matters and demands of the
Boerevolk.

It was agreed that this forum will be held by the end of June, and will
consist of delegations from both Parliament and the Boerevolk. The
Parliamentary delegation will include the Chairman of the
Constitutional Committee; the Minister of Agriculture of Land and
Environmental Affairs, to address the Zimbabwe-like land grab currently
taking place in South Africa; the Minister of Justice, to address the
injustices against the Boerevolk taking place in South Africa's legal
system; Minister of Safety and Security, to address the murders of
farmers, and Black-on-Boere crime taking place.

The Chairman of Human Rights of Minorities at the United Nations,
Mr.Stauffenhagen, has also received the Majuba Declaration.

For the first time in more than 100 years, the Boerevolk are actually
being represented in South Africa. After 1902, they lost their freedom
and were incorporated into the Afrikaner group and later into "White"
South Africa under the Apartheid system.
