HISTORY IN THE MAKING 2008-2016

Good luck!

We've spent a good many years discussing politics, life, society and history. Most of all, the makers of history. The great events that changed the world - people, places, actions. Small acts have changed its hard-worn course, and effort and circumstance can make of its small actors immortal greats. In line with that sentiment, it seems pertinent now to recognize the potential of those who've made up this community for years, obvious through their contributions to the spirited debate and discussion that has proceeded here. HITM has sadly gone silent, though perhaps not lacking for things to say about making history, but rather for the realization that it is time we all commenced to do so, and make our mark.

Good luck to you all, see you in the history books!

To be fair, I'm surprised he wasn't killed earlier.

South Africa's Terreblanche hacked to death

Neo-Nazi leader who fought for all-white state – and was convicted of trying to kill black employee – is murdered by farm workers

South African neo-Nazi leader Eugene Terreblanche has been hacked to death in his sleep by two workers on his farm after what was believed to be a dispute over unpaid wages.


Police arrived at the farm in Ventersdorp in the western Transvaal at 5pm yesterday and found Terreblanche, 69, on his bed with serious wounds to his head and body. They also found a knobkerrie and a panga – a machete used for chopping vegetation – abandoned nearby.

Terreblanche died in hospital two hours later, South African media reported. Andre Visagie of the Afrikaner Weerstandsbeweging, or Afrikaner Resistance Movement (AWB), told the website News24 that Terreblanche had been so badly beaten "he did not look like Eugene any more".

Despite a revival within his party over the past two years, Terreblanche had lived in relative obscurity following his release from jail in 2004 after serving a six-year sentence for the attempted murder in 1996 of a poor black labourer employed on his farm. He left Paul Motshabi brain-damaged and crippled after beating him with a blunt instrument, allegedly for taking a break without permission, and at the same trial was convicted of setting his dog on a petrol station attendant.

His death comes as rising concerns over increasing racial polarisation in South Africa have been sharpened by an incident in which the head of the ruling ANC's youth league sang a song with the lyrics "Kill the Boer".


To get an idea what kind of man he is:

Really? What does he like then? Outside of Cape Town and Johannesburg, what is there really to Seth Efrica?

He is a rural man so he likes all rural areas(the Karoo and the Transvaal), and he probably likes Cape Town("mother city") and Pretoria(important Afrikaner city).
