South Africa: Genocide Fears Raised
Stephan Archer
May 19, 2000
In recent months, Zimbabwe has been in crisis. More than 1,200 white families have been driven off their farms, four white farmers were brutally murdered, 20 other people have been killed, and the government says to expect more land confiscations from whites.
Zimbabwe, formerly Rhodesia, is ruled by Robert Mugabe. Mugabe became the country’s first prime minister as a result of the turnover of the government from white-minority rule in 1980.
Since then a small enclave of whites fared well and Zimbabwe was cited as the model for South Africa when whites turned over power to the African National Congress in 1994.
As the situation in Zimbabwe has deteriorated, fears of white genocide in South Africa have also risen.
Criticism of the murders and Mugabe’s handling of the atrocities has been late and tepid from Western governments, including the United States and Britain. Press coverage of the killings has also been muted. Whites in South Africa have voiced concerns that South Africa’s government, led by Thabo Mbeki, has also failed to aggressively criticize the Zimbabwe killings and Mugabe. Some whites in South Africa believe the lame response to the Zimbabwe killings is due to the fact South Africa has the same problem.
Since 1994, in fact, more than 600 South African farmers have been brutally murdered, and some observers in that country believe that the killings are only the beginning of a bloodier assault fueled by political motivations.
According to Agri South Africa, the country’s national farmers’ union, 618 farmers have been killed since 1994, and 4,241 attacks against farmers have occurred since 1991.
The South African Police Service’s figures from 1997–98, which are similar to the union’s statistics, point out that, at least for the above-mentioned time period, 77.1 percent of the victims were white. Conversely, 98.2 percent of the arrested suspects were black.
'It’s Going to Happen Here'
Former Zimbabwean farmer Derek Longhurst, who immigrated to South Africa 10 years ago, believes farmers in South Africa are experiencing a deadly epidemic of killings that will soon surpass the violence faced by farmers in his homeland.
"It’s going to happen in [South Africa] as well,” Longhurst said. "But it’s happening a lot quicker here. I was in Zimbabwe for 10 years of independence, so I knew what took place there. I can see it happening here.”
Longhurst, not agreeing with Agri South Africa’s statistics, believes that more than 1,000 farmers have been killed already in South Africa although the exact number is difficult to verify.
Even the police service’s report admits that the Crime Code List used by the department doesn’t make any provisions for a category such as "farm murders.”
Thus, the police service’s statistics reflect only those murders that were actually reported to take place on farms. They do not include attacks on farmers elsewhere.
Some whites believe the South African government is covering up the significance of its own farm killings because it fears continued flight of white capital and foreign investment.
Recently, the South African rand fell to record lows on foreign exchanges, and the Financial Times suggested that "investors took fright at the possible impact of Zimbabwe’s political and economic crisis” would have on countries such as South Africa.
