Decleration
Declaration of Independence
SECTION A
With this writing, we as the European, Afrikaanse Boervolk Nation, hereby declare our independence as we are left with no other choice but to do so.
I wish to focus your attention on the fact that the Boervolk has been attacked, tortured, murdered and threatened by Non-Boer people for several reasons. One of these reasons is the direct result of political parties like the ANC and the EFF as well as movements like the BLF (Black first land first) who openly, in public speeches incite violence and racial hate towards white south Africans, totally disregarding the human rights and rights for ethnic minority groups in South Africa. The result thereof is farm murders that is committed with the highest degree of savage cruelty that these attacks and murders can only be described as demonic. On 16 February 2018 a final declaration of war, as we see it, was issued by the newly elected president of South-Africa, Cyril Ramaphosa by stating the following ; 19H53 on 16 February 2018 "We are determined that expropriation without compensation should be implemented..." This in our view is a direct attack on the constitutional rights of white farmers to own property and live free from fear, as Ramaphosa made it clear that expropriated land will be given to black people, this in it self is racism against whites. I wish to focus your attention on some of the history where the Boer Volk has been attacked, abused, tortured and opressed.
Report 1
Boer Men, Women and Children in British Concentration Camps.
Boer women, children and men unfit for service were herded together in concentration camps by the British forces during Anglo-Boer War 2 (1899-1902). The first two of these camps (refugee camps) were established to house the families of burghers who had surrendered voluntarily, but very soon, with families of combatant burgers driven forcibly into camps established all over the country, the camps ceased to be refugee camps and became concentration camps. The abhorrent conditions in these camps caused the death of 4 177 women, 22 074 children under sixteen and 1 676 men, mainly those too old to be on commando, notwithstanding the efforts of an English lady, Emily Hobhouse, who tried her best to make the British authorities aware of the plight of especially the women and children in the camps.

Report 2
After the massacre of Piet Retief and his delegation (about a hundred persons), the Zulu King Dingane sent his impis to exterminate the remaining voortrekkers who were camped at Doringkop, Bloukrans (Blaauwekrans), Moordspruit, Rensburgspruit and other sites along the Bushman River (Zulu: Mtshezi), in the present province of KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa.[1] The present day town of Weenen, situated close to these sites, derives its name from the Dutch word for "weeping".[2]
Deathtoll
Among the Voortrekkers, 41 men, 56 women and 185 children were killed.[3] In addition another 250[3] or 252[4] Khoikhoi and Basuto that accompanied the Voortrekkers were killed,[5] bringing the casualties to about 534.
The murdered included George Biggar, the son of Alexander Biggar, a trader at Port Natal. Biggar and his second son, Robert, subsequently participated and died in retaliatory attacks on the Zulus. Most people camped at the Klein- and Groot-Moordspruit were murdered. Here a Boer woman Johanna van der Merwe sustained 21 assegai wounds but survived.[1] The camps at Rensburgspruit, where Hans van Rensburg and Andries Pretorius were camped,[1] were successful in defending themselves.
Amongst those killed were also:
Joachim Johannes Prinsloo, ≈ 30/3/1783 (Acquitted Slagtersnek rebel) [6]Martha Louisa Prinsloo, (Wife of Joachim Johannes Prinsloo, above) [7]
Bloukransmonument marking one of the conflict sites
Hans van Rensburg's party were compelled to leave their wagons and retreat on foot to a hill, Rensburgkoppie, which was protected by a cliff on one side. Here they were cornered by the Zulus, whom they kept at bay with limited ammunition. When their ammunition was almost depleted, a young man by the name of Marthinus Oosthuizen arrived on horseback. By shouting instructions they informed him where to locate and salvage ammunition from their camp. This Oosthuizen was able to deliver by charging with his horse through the Zulu file, while covered by the defenders of the hill. With the defense strengthened, the Zulus retreated.[8]
Two months afterwards, on 15 April 1838, Andries Pretorius reflects in his journal: "As we were separated from one another, they succeeded in their attack at daybreak at Blaauwekrans, thereby killing 33 men, 75 women and 123 children."[9] This implies a total of 231 deaths at the Blaauwekrans camps. The name Blaauwekrans (Zulu: Msuluzi) refers to bluish cliff faces present in the area.

Report 3
The Piet Retief Delegation massacre occurred when Voortrekkers under Piet Retief migrated into Natal in 1837 and negotiated a land treaty in February 1838 with the Zulu King Dingane. Upon reconsideration, Dingane doublecrossed the Voortrekkers, killing the delegation of 100 including their leader Piet Retief on 6 February 1838. The land treaty was later found in Piet Retief's possession. It gave the Voortrekkers the land between the Tugela River and Port St. Johns. This event eventually led to the Battle of Blood River and the eventual defeat of Dingane.

SECTION B – Our Right to declare independence;
The International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights (ICCPR) is a multilateral treaty adopted by the United Nations General Assembly with resolution 2200A (XXI) on 19 December 1966, and in force from 23 March 1976 in accordance with Article 49 of the covenant. Article 49 allowed that the covenant will enter into force three months after the date of the deposit of the thirty-fifth instrument of ratification or accession. The covenant commits its parties to respect the civil and political rights of individuals, including the right to life, freedom of religion, freedom of speech, freedom of assembly, electoral rights and rights to due process and a fair trial.[2] As of February 2017[update], the Covenant has 169 parties and six more signatories without ratification.[1]

International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights
The ICCPR is part of the International Bill of Human Rights, along with the International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights (ICESCR) and the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR).[3]
The ICCPR is monitored by the United Nations Human Rights Committee (a separate body to the United Nations Human Rights Council), which reviews regular reports of States parties on how the rights are being implemented. States must report initially one year after acceding to the Covenant and then whenever the Committee requests (usually every four years). The Committee normally meets in Geneva and normally holds three sessions per year.
A treaty is an agreement under international law entered into by actors in international law, namely sovereign states and international organizations. A treaty may also be known as an (international) agreement, protocol, covenant, convention, pact, or exchange of letters, among other terms. Regardless of terminology, all of these forms of agreements are, under international law, equally considered treaties and the rules are the same.[1]
Treaties can be loosely compared to contracts: both are means of willing parties assuming obligations among themselves, and a party to either that fails to live up to their obligations can be held liable under international law.[2]
Civil and political rights are a class of rights that protect individuals' freedom from infringement by governments, social organizations, and private individuals. They ensure one's ability to participate in the civil and political life of the society and state without discrimination or repression.
Civil rights include the ensuring of peoples' physical and mental integrity, life, and safety; protection from discrimination on grounds such as race, gender, national origin, colour, age, political affiliation, ethnicity, religion, sexual orientation, gender identity, and disability;[1][2][3] and individual rights such as privacy and the freedoms of thought, speech, religion, press, assembly, and movement.
Political rights include natural justice (procedural fairness) in law, such as the rights of the accused, including the right to a fair trial; due process; the right to seek redress or a legal remedy; and rights of participation in civil society and politics such as freedom of association, the right to assemble, the right to petition, the right of self-defense, and the right to vote.
Civil and political rights form the original and main part of international human rights.[4] They comprise the first portion of the 1948 Universal Declaration of Human Rights (with economic, social, and cultural rights comprising the second portion). The theory of three generations of human rights considers this group of rights to be "first-generation rights", and the theory of negative and positive rights considers them to be generally negative rights.
The right to life is a moral principle based on the belief that a human being has the right to live and, in particular, should not be killed by another human being. The concept of a right to life arises in debates on issues of capital punishment, war, abortion, euthanasia, justifiable homicide, and public health care.
In human history, there has not been a general acceptance of the concept of a right to life that is innate to individuals[citation needed] rather than granted as a privilege by those holding social and political power. The evolution of human rights as a concept took place slowly in multiple areas in many different ways, with the right to life being no exception to this trend, and the past millennium in particular has seen a large set of national and international law or legal documents (examples being the Magna Carta and the Universal Declaration of Human Rights) codifying the general ideal into specifically worded principles.
Freedom of religion is a principle that supports the freedom of an individual or community, in public or private, to manifest religion or belief in teaching, practice, worship, and observance. It also includes the freedom to change one's religion or belief.[1]
Freedom of religion is considered by many people and most of the nations to be a fundamental human right.[2][3] In a country with a state religion, freedom of religion is generally considered to mean that the government permits religious practices of other sects besides the state religion, and does not persecute believers in other faiths. Freedom of belief is different. It allows the right to believe what a person, group or religion wishes, but it does not necessarily allow the right to practice the religion or belief openly and outwardly in a public manner.
Freedom of speech is the right to articulate one's opinions and ideas without fear of government retaliation or censorship, or societal sanction.[2][3][4][5] The term "freedom of expression" is sometimes used synonymously, but includes any act of seeking, receiving and imparting information or ideas, regardless of the medium used.
Freedom of expression is recognized as a human right under article 19 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and recognized in international human rights law in the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights (ICCPR). Article 19 of the UDHR states that "everyone shall have the right to hold opinions without interference" and "everyone shall have the right to freedom of expression; this right shall include freedom to seek, receive and impart information and ideas of all kinds, regardless of frontiers, either orally, in writing or in print, in the form of art, or through any other media of his choice". The version of Article 19 in the ICCPR later amends this by stating that the exercise of these rights carries "special duties and responsibilities" and may "therefore be subject to certain restrictions" when necessary "[f]or respect of the rights or reputation of others" or "[f]or the protection of national security or of public order (order public), or of public health or morals".[6] Therefore, freedom of speech and expression may not be recognized as being absolute, and common limitations to freedom of speech relate to libel, slander, obscenity, pornography, sedition, incitement, fighting words, classified information, copyright violation, trade secrets, food labeling, non-disclosure agreements, the right to privacy, the right to be forgotten, public security, and perjury. Justifications for such include the harm principle, proposed by John Stuart Mill in On Liberty, which suggests that: "the only purpose for which power can be rightfully exercised over any member of a civilized community, against his will, is to prevent harm to others."[7] The idea of the "offense principle" is also used in the justification of speech limitations, describing the restriction on forms of expression deemed offensive to society, considering factors such as extent, duration, motives of the speaker, and ease with which it could be avoided.[7] With the evolution of the digital age, application of the freedom of speech becomes more controversial as new means of communication and restrictions arise, for example the Golden Shield Project, an initiative by Chinese government's Ministry of Public Security that filters potentially unfavorable data from foreign countries.
The right to freedom of expression has been interpreted to include the right to take and publish photographs of strangers in public areas without their permission or knowledge.[8][9]
Freedom of assembly, sometimes used interchangeably with the freedom of association, is the individual right or ability of people to come together and collectively express, promote, pursue, and defend their ideas.[1] The right to freedom of association is recognized as a human right, a political right and a civil liberty.
The terms freedom of assembly and freedom of association may be used to distinguish between the freedom to assemble in public places and the freedom to join an association. Freedom of assembly is often used in the context of the right to protest, while freedom of association is used in the context of labor rights and in the Constitution of the United States is interpreted to mean both the freedom to assemble and the freedom to join an association.[2]
The United States Constitution explicitly provides for 'the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances' in the First Amendment.
Some universally recognized rights seen as fundamental, i.e., contained in the United Nations Universal Declaration of Human Rights, the U.N. International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights, or the U.N. International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights, include the following:
Right to self-determination[1]Right to liberty[2]Right to due process of law[2]Right to freedom of movement[3]Right to freedom of thought[4]Right to freedom of religion[4]Right to freedom of expression[5]Right to peaceful assembly[6]Right to freedom of association[7]

Mr J.G. Zuma
President of the Republic of South Africa
Private Bag X 1000
PRETORIA

Hand delivered to: Union Building, Government Avenue, Pretoria
Dear Mr President
REQUEST FOR THE TEMPORARY DEPLOYMENT OF RURAL SAFETY UNITS
I would like to inform you by means of this letter that I am fed up: Fed up with the increasing level of violent crime; fed up with the increasing number of farm attacks and murders; fed up with your and your Government's unwillingness or simple inability to address these crimes; and fed up with your rhetoric and actions that enable and encourage rather than deter crime.
Did you know, Mr President, that South Africa has approximately 32 000 commercial farmers, who, despite your party's optimistic NDP, have shown continuous economic decline?
Did you know, Mr President, that your own party's Commission of Enquiry found that at least 6 122 farm attacks and 1 254 farm murders had taken place between 1991 and 2001?
Did you know, Mr President, that farmers and farmworkers fell victim to at least 30 verified farm attacks and 15 verified farm murders since the beginning of February 2017?
Did you know, Mr President, that the Institute for Security Studies calculated in 2013 the annual rate at which South African farmers were murdered to have been 120/100 000, while TAU SA calculated it in 2014 to have been 132,8/100 000?
Did you know, Mr President, that these farm attacks and murders are often characterised by extreme violence and torture?
Did you know, Mr President, that General Phahlane, the South African Police Service's Acting National Commissioner, declared farm murders a priority crime in 2016 – after your party deprioritised it in 2007 despite a 25% increase in attacks in the same year?
Did you know, Mr President, that a report by the South African Human Rights Commission that was commissioned in 2014 made recommendations on how several of your Government's departments could aid the fight against farm attacks and murders?
Did you know, Mr President, that very few, if any, of these recommendations were implemented by your Government's departments?
Did you know, Mr President, that police in rural areas often find themselves understaffed, underequipped and without support?
Did you know, Mr President, that we cannot win the fight against farm attacks and murders on our own?
Well – now that you know, I would like to put forward my request that:
• You sanction the deployment of temporary rural safety units;
• You instruct your Government's departments to revisit the SAHRC report and implement the recommendations that it makes;
• You, your party and your Government refrain from inciting the occupation of land and the use of violence against farms and farmers; and
• You also act firmly against others outside of those structures who incite the illegal occupation of land and violence to be used against farms and farmers.
Your actions throughout the years have made it clear that you come first. You are the number one and no expense is spared to protect you. I ask of you, however, that we, ordinary citizens who contributed to the country's economy, who provide the country with food, and who provide countless jobs come as a close second, worthy of similar protection.

JOHANNESBURG – The R59 highway in Vereeniging has been blocked with trucks and cars in support of the Black Monday campaign to highlight the high number of farm murders.
The movement was started in Cape Town by a group called Enough is Enough after the murder of farmer Joubert Conradie on his farm earlier this month.
The Black Monday protest against farm killings has now spread to the Krugersdorp area west of Johannesburg.
Midvaal Mayor Bongani Baloyi has received a memorandum from the protesters and officials are now trying to clear the road.
The Midvaal mayor says that his priority is to clear the road and not allow the protest to hinder economic development in the area.

A group of South African expats in the UK have asked for protesters not to bring racist banners, slogans and agendas when they gather in London on Saturday 4 November.
Peaceful action planned in solidarity with #BlackMonday
The peaceful action against attacks on farmers and their families in SA is set to be held in front of the South African High Commission in Trafalgar Square – and comes in the wake of ugly scenes during this week's nationwide #BlackMonday protests back in South Africa.
D 4 – Farm murders hit a fresh peak in February, sparking a simple video plea that evolved into South Africa's biggest ever prayer meeting with more than a million people gathering near Bloemfontein over the weekend. Businessman Graham Power, who has supported evangelist Angus Buchan, takes us inside the extraordinary gathering which helicopter pilots estimate attracted 1.3m people – explaining how it was conceived in just six weeks and ended with an inexplicable natural event that the faithful believe provided physical evidence of God's presence at the unprecedented event. Power believes this will be the watershed moment for a South Africa that has been drifting ever deeper into corruption and misrule. – Alec Hogg
D 5 – A Democratic Alliance (DA) MP wants to know how many farm murders will be enough for government to take action, with another political party calling on the country's farmers to register and make use of security systems implemented by local agricultural unions.
D 6 -Earlier this year Groenewald told a debate on farm murders in the National Assembly it was more dangerous being a farmer than a policeman in South Africa.
He cited the world average for murders as seven for every 100 000 of population, in South Africa it is 33 for every 100 000. When it comes to police the number stands at 54 per 100 000 and for farmers it is 133 per 100 000.

South African farmers fearing for their lives
On Saturday, in an unprecedented move to mark the second anniversary of the slaughter of a farming family, survivors of farm attacks marched in Pretoria and called for attacks on South Africa's mostly white farmers to be designated a crime of national priority.

Since 1 January 2017 at least 341 farm attacks have already been carried out, during which 70 people have been murdered. This means that to date in 2017 more murders have already been committed during farm attacks than the entire number of farm murders during 2016.
Today the civil rights movement AfriForum launched a civil motion of no confidence in Fikile Mbalula, the Minister of Police.
The public can support this motion of no confidence by visiting the website http://www.stopdiemoorde.co.za.

SA govt tries to block submission to UN HRC on farm murders – FF Plus
Pieter Mulder – André Fourie |
25 November 2015
US representative recommended that submission be presented immediately and member states thereafter listened more intently
ANC government given blood nose at United Nations with FF Plus' submission on farm murders25 November 2015
South Africa's mission at the United Nations in Geneva, Switzerland which wanted to prevent the FF Plus yesterday to present a submission on South Africa's inadequate legal system and the high incidence of farm murders and murder in the country ran into trouble when America intervened and recommended that the submission had to be delivered.
The mission's spokesperson raised racism and apartheid in an argument and argued that the South African government cannot be expected to link murders to race.
The figures that the FF Plus had used in its proposal – such as those on farm murders – however without making any distinction included all races.
According to Mr. André Fourie, chairperson of the FF Plus's committee on international relations and councillor in the Cape Metro, who had presented the submission, this attempt by the mission had quite the opposite effect.
America actually recommended that the submission should be presented immediately and member states thereafter listened more intently to the FF Plus' submission made to the Human Rights Commission of the UN's Forum on Minority Rights.
Mr. Fourie says the events make it clear that the world has for too long listened to the excuse of apartheid and racism which is being offered by the ANC to defend their failures.
The comprehensive submission of the FF Plus follows below.
UNITED NATIONS: HUMAN RIGHTS COUNCIL
8TH SESSION: FORUM ON MINORITY ISSUES
Geneva Switzerland 24.25 November 2015
Presented by:
Andre Fourie – Chairman: International Relations – Freedom Front Plus South Africa
Notwithstanding the annual rebuttal by the South African government delegation, wishing us away, we are back here to draw the attention of this Minority Forum to the alarming increase in and the continuous brutal murders of farmers and farm workers, in the privacy of their farms, taking place in our country since 1994, without the necessary protection and/or prohibitive measures in place within our Criminal Justice System.
We have no option but to internationalise the violence and atrocities directed at and targeting a strategic minority community enterprise responsible not only for food security, but – which contributes considerably to job creation, economic growth and the prosperity of the entire South African nation.
The urgent attention of this august body is called for in the light of:
• Various commissions and committees of enquiries, plans and strategies, acknowledgements and commitments from the South African authorities having come to nothing;
• An unacceptably high total of 1775 farm murders have been committed from 1990 to date – figures privately kept by TAUSA and Institute for Security Studies in the absence of official government statistics;
• The overall annual murder rate in SA now stands at 17857 of which only 23.8% are brought to conviction – this proves how the Criminal Justice System fails the victims;
• The comparative international murder figures showing an average of 7 murders per 100 000 people per year whereas South Africa registers 32 per 100 000 – but, if projected to specific categories it reflects 54 per 100 000 for police officers and a staggering 133 per 100 000 for farmers and farm workers;
• The Criminal Justice System in South Africa has failed its own promise to put in place a proposed Area Crime Combatting Unit or Sector Policing System to replace the abolished highly successful Commando-protection-system; and
• The decision by the policing authority, not to release these facts and figures related to farm murders since 2007, as a separate category, serves as an indictment against their clear neglect to protect this particular minority entity.
Therefore, we, the Freedom Front Plus of South Africa, together with other registered South African participants at this Forum –
Request this 8th Forum on Minority Issues to share and adopt our grave concerns, and – to refer this matter to the Human Rights Commission and the Secretary General of the United Nations for its own investigation into this continuous cruel and violent practice committed with brutal force, and – often extreme torture, against the South African farming fraternity.
I sincerely hope that the panel who introduced this item will take the trouble to take this matter on board and pay SA a visit to inform themselves!
