Riots in South Africa an Overview, by Mac

“Mac” is the psuedonym of a South African who’s submitted his assessment on the current happenings in South Africa. -NCS
The ANC has presided over massive economic decay due to their racist and communist. The harsh lockdowns accelerated this trend and youth unemployment is now at an official figure of 75% but is probably higher. This was a powderkeg and a reintroduction of business closures and our 4th alcohol ban (I write this with a glass of bootlegged wine in my hand) made this worse as everyone is now tired of been stuffed around by the government and their cabal of dubious experts. The spark that set this off was a ruling by the constitutional court that the former president not attending a judicial commission of enquiry into corruption allegations against him was contempt of court and sentenced him to 15 months in prison. They also order that the minister of police and the commissioner of police would be in contempt of court if they didn’t arrest the former president should he not hand himself over to prison officials within 5 days. Zuma did not comply and non Zulu police were brought in from other provinces to arrest him they were poised to storm his compound and deal with his supporters at midnight however Zuma gave himself up 1 hour before midnight.
Within hours his supporters who are mainly made up of Zulu ANC members and the MK (the military wing of the ruling party) started riots, these started as attacks on trucks on the N3, the road between the economic capital of the country, the province of Gauteng and the port city of Durban. This evolved over the next few days as a widespread looting. Minorities and private security started forming neighbourhood defence teams and the police even requested help from armed citizens after many were overrun and looted. I got semi-verified intelligence of private citizens giving the police ammo as well and there were gun shops flying ammo to their friends defending on the ground from other areas in helicopters. The state is bankrupt and the police have not had money to buy ammunition for many years now. Private security outnumber the police and defence force combined and many are extremely well trained, they are often owned by ex policemen or soldiers. Many of the videos you see of people shooting with shotguns are people using rubber bullets (beanbag rounds I believe you call them) however these have run out countrywide and many people say they will now start using deadly force and in some Indian and White areas in Durban they already have. All neighbourhood watch groups have radio comms most linked to the police, and the private security also have radio networks connected to the police. Everybody uses Whatsapp and Telegram groups to communicate although cell phone is now down in many areas.
While the rioters are mainly Zulu and confined to their areas limited rioting has broken out in Xhosa and other ethnic group areas, also the tribal chiefs and the Zulu king are against the riots so the many rural Zulu’s are attacking the rioters as well.
The communist EFF are starting to make noises about joining this would make the riots countrywide and the police are spread thin as most were deployed for the Zuma arrest. The EFF claim to be anti Zuma but are definitely pro anarchy There are also rumours that instigators are attached to State Security Agency factions that support Zuma.
The riots are also targeting infrastructure and a water treatment plant has been burnt down as well as many cell towers and radio station equipment. The fuel refinery in Durban has been forced to close and since an explosion at the Cape Town fuel refinery it is the only one operational in the country.
Excuse the bad grammar and possible mistakes I’ve knocked this out in a hurry. For further information look up Paratus, Roman Cabanac and Ernst Roets on Twitter and South Africa Future of the West and South Africa Reports on Telegram.

Mac

      Thankfully, in America the violent element trying to start things is the minority and the targeted whites are the majority. An ethnic war wouldn’t quite be the Alamo for whites.
      It would still be barbaric and nasty, though. Hopefully we can avoid it.
      Back to training and buying ammo …

      You know there is a certain group behind them and that they’ve done this before right? Please?

    Thanks for putting this out. I haven’t seen anything about the SA riots anywhere else. An excellent chance to see what works as some of the self defense groups really have their shit together it seems. Coms, logistics, all the key factors in surviving this can be analyzed. Look forward to the AAR. Best of luck to the citizens fighting the mobs as it will be brutal.

      NC Renegade has been posting some stuff on it as well. I don’t watch mainstream news but have been told no word of it.
      A friend lives in Johannesburg, put the call out to him to make sure he’s ok., hopefully. Very aware guy so he’s prepped for this stuff best he can.
      If he relays anything interesting I’ll pass it along.

    Get some. Anyway we can support financially?
    I’ll donate $100 for ammo as long as it ends up in the right hands.

    • rto-jerry July 16, 2021 at 08:36

      Ditto, I’d donate the same

    And don’t y’all forget we got a little hot war between Mexican “authoritahs” , and the drug gangs on our south border, which could roll into the USA most rickey tick. Once the US “authoritahs” settle on who they’re going to try and wax, drug gangs, BLM, Antifa, etc, will be on a bender to see how much crap they can burn before the party is over. A neighborhood protection plan is a capital idea.

    Yeah FUCK CIVIL NATIONALISTS. My Boer friend said he’s excited about this. That he’s been promised this time of struggle his whole life and hopes that it is finally here. He also states that it will light a fire in the bellies of all of Us. In Europe and North America. Vote Harder cucks!

    “Wake me when it’s time to shot my liberal/commie neighbors” love that quote forgot where I first saw it.
    SA keep at it or die(I guess).
    Stop with the less-than-lethal ammo early is an lesson here.

    South Africa has been described as the ‘canary in the coal mine of the US’ more than once; what happens there, happens here with only small modifications in the playbook. Slightly different language describing the ‘oppressors,; but it all comes down to “white man bad; it’s not fair; what you got, we get.’
    “Suidlanders” is a well organized and high end prep organization at a national level; I attended a presentation by them a couple years ago when their representatives were travelling across the US to raise awareness to the farm murders which are either ignored or downplayed by typical media.
    Link: https://suidlanders.org/
    It’s starting to show that while black vs white is the big media splash, it’s far more complex, but with a backdrop of universal corruption on almost all sides. It’s closer to the Balkan conflict with ethnic/tribal/racial and historical hatreds, but in this case the players are Boer and British who see the threats and the liberals who feel immune; blacks of different tribes with the Zulus being quite powerful, Coloreds who are a distinct group, people from Indian descent, Chinese influence, the ANC party with factions, and other parties even farther left.
    A total mess, on a backdrop of failing water and power supplies, and ; likely gas and food with the latest riots.
    Gun control is well advanced though some have firearms, and there have been movements to curtail HAM radio as well.
    Some farm attacks have involved communication jammers, and it’s likely the military is involved in some way.
    BTW the Boer are BIG guys, Dutch ancestry and all.
    Look up Simon Roche if interested, there are a heap of interviews new and old of him describing events and trends.
    But it’s that ‘canary’ quote he made during the presentation that opened my eyes to the uniformity of the ‘play book’ both there and here.

    This country was the economic jewel of Africa. Symphony, art, good food, hospitality and tourism.
    What a train wreck now.
    The US is next.
