Swedish Voters Will Decide on September 9
On the evening of August 13 and continuing into the early morning of August 14, as many of 150 automobiles were set ablaze by Muslim immigrant youth gangs in several Swedish metropolitan areas. Most were concentrated around Gothenburg, Sweden’s second largest city on its west coast, but some auto burnings were reported further south in Helsingborg and Malmö and further north and inland in Trollhättan. In the early morning, some auto burnings were reported around Stockholm and Uppsala on the east coast. Rational analysis would assign a high probability that most of this arson was orchestrated.

Christian Death Toll Exceeds 6,000 in Six Months
According to the Christian Association of Nigeria, more than 6,000 Christians have been murdered by Islamist Jihadists since the beginning of 2018. Not many people outside Nigeria seem to care.
From June 25 to 28, Muslim terrorists attacked a dozen Nigerian villages, desecrated several Christian churches and killed 238 Christians, including a Christian pastor, his wife, and son. According to another Christian pastor, about 50 heavily armed Fulani herdsmen burned the entire community of Gidin Akwatito to the ground and killed almost every one of 100 persons in a neighboring village. Two soldiers and a policeman in the village of Nghar fled when Islamic militants arrived. There was no further intervention by government security agencies despite several distress calls. According to the Christian Association, which includes churches from several Christian denominations in Nigeria, many of these and past terrorist incidents included sexual assault and rape of women before being slaughtered. Many victims were beheaded, hacked to death, or burned to death inside homes and churches.

Part 2 of The Boer Republics under Siege South Africa 1899 to 1903
The Boer Republics of Transvaal and the Orange Free State in South Africa were under siege by the British Empire during the First Boer War from 1880 to 1881 and again during the more famous Second Boer War from 1899 to 1902. The issues were Boer independence versus gold mining resources and empire. In 1879, just before the First Boer war, the British Army engaged migrating Zulu tribes during what was called the Anglo-Zulu War, which is more famous in the U.S. because of two famous battles: Isandlwana and Rorke’s Drift. The heroism of a small detachment of 141 men, mostly from the 24th Welsh Foot (infantry) at Rorke’s Drift, for which eleven Victoria Crosses were awarded, was the subject of the American movie, Zulu. But before we continue the story of Koos De la Rey and the Second Boer War, it is important to summarize the state of South Africa from 1994 until today.

“But the Heart of the Boer is Deeper and Wider”
South Africa 1899 to 1903 - Part 1
Boer is the Dutch/Afrikaans word for “farmer” now applied to the mainly Dutch, German, and French Huguenot early settlers in South Africa. About 2.6 million of the 4.6 million whites in South Africa consider themselves ethnic Boers. Once a majority, but because of massive migration of Bantu tribes from western and central Africa and much higher black birthrates, the white population is down to 8.4 percent of South Africa’s 80 percent black 55 million people. Following World War II and especially since the end of Apartheid in 1994, the Boers have considered themselves and their culture under ethnic and political siege. To understand their increasingly dangerous situation, it is good to know some essential Boer history.
