Unbelievable! Who does this guy think he is? Taking peoples land like a THIEF!! Do you support land grabs even done legally? With conpensation?

"take the land” and “get it done" said President Cyril Ramaphosa.

It was first reported that Mr. Rampahosa had brought up the land seizures and had floated the idea of offering pardons to ANC aides willing to break the law, a suggestion he has made previously when exploring ways to fulfill his campaign promises. "Eminent domain is very interesting,” Mr. Ramphahosa said in a speech in January in Xhosa.

“But without eminent domain, you wouldn’t have any highways, you wouldn’t have any schools, you wouldn’t have any roadways."

It's complicated...

No. Private property is sacred!

Yes. Legally at market prices if govt needs it.

Here's how I think this should be handled. I think that president Trump should make it known in South Africa that all the Afrikaans farmers are welcome here as refugees.. We should airlift them out with C-17's with military escorts. When they get here, President Trump should grant them arable federal lands to start new farms. They will probably need skilled farm hands. Homeland Security can filter out Illegal aliens with farm skills and grant them visas to work for the new farmers. Isn't this a great idea? I know that every liberal here is going to agree with me in every respect.

No. It's a terrible unnecessary idea!! by the way, The story and quotes above are from Trump trying to seize land from USA Americans living along the border for his "big beautiful wall". Betcha MAGAs change their tune now

we shall see. Only results matter.

I know right! Seizing other people's land. With some compensation of course. How dare they!

But hey, isn't there a precedent for that in South Africa? Only the seizure was by violent force and without any compensation, other than economic slavery.

So this is progress. A civilized non violent approach. Maybe South African Whites can learn something from it.

Theif? You must not mean cyril... you sound like anti trump but trump is not taking any land for himself. Legally means under certain circumstances so option a. Not "sacred".

Austria did a land grab on Hitler's house, so can any country as long as it has a purpose.
