I doubt many people took him seriously . . . until now. Hope his killers get whats comming to them. However, this story has made international news (just read it on CNN). Just wondering if foreigners will start pulling out their money.

Short answer is no, international investors won't withdraw money from the country because of this. The international coverage is because of mainly the coverage South Africa is getting over the world cup and people's fear over safety issues in this country. Terrorism is still fresh in the minds of everyone world wide. However, if nationalization becomes a reality, and I not saying it will, you will see $ Billions leave the shores of this continent very quickly. The one thing that draws investors to this country is mineral wealth and the investor opportunities it presents. Without that this country will have very little to offer any foreign investor. More concerning is that this event fits into a serious of other events. This is just another puzzle peace in the bigger puzzle called - `Marginalization of wealthy minorities". If one of your thoughts over this weekend was leaving this country, then this government succeeded once again with an orchestrated attempt to create "paranoia, fear and racial hatred and division". One of my mottos in live is to never make any big decisions when I'm feeling emotional about anything. It works wonders when you're trading, and can be applied as a general rule in life. I suggest you start doing the same.

A few years ago I came across a bunch from the British army who were consulting anti-terrorism with the SA govt. Spoke to a guy and asked him where the potential threats came from. He wasn't keen on providing too much but it appeared that the biggest threat came from the right wing element in SA. So just wondering what the right wing had in store for the world cup (they have been quiet for a while) and what the govt decided to do about it . . . Melema's little song might have been a whole big cover up for something bigger.

ET got what he deserved, just watching news , and the people he beat up, shot and the bombs he took responsibilty for . He died just as he lived, by unforgiving beating, ironically by the race he abused and mistreated the most

Farm murder no. 3368 since 1994 - Systematic genocide?. Imagine what food surplus this country would have had if these people were left to lead their lives in peace.

On the subject of yet another farm murder - it is disgusting. I have lost family and close friends in this fashion, and it saddens me. On the subject of a hate mongering, violence prone, politically insignificant idiot receiving front page coverage in every major newspaper in the country - that is also dispicable. I do not believe in an eye for an eye, but i do believe that if you live by the sword ... This guy served a paltry jail sentence for beating a man brain dead. It is morons like him, and his attitude to farm labourers that are a large contributing factor to the hatred and violence that take place in farming communities. Sorry for being insensitive to the Terblanche family pain right now

Feel also this thread can be cut...but just for the bogum.....yes he made mistakes, last year I have photo's where he prayed with two black women, for change. He wasnt perfect, but killing anybody is not right. We can go on, or stop and try to go positive start being positive...or stay and point fingers to everyone else....But still the racism of Malema can also not be seen as any positives for the country... Luckily I am past a stage were humans pointing fingers or letting the other party be the worst only to better one self will affect me negatively.

the last resort of the weak is to keen and wail on state owned public TV. I wouldn't lose too much sleep about their ability to wreak chaos and mayhem beyond failed token gestures. If they had any organisation or pride left they would have dealt with this quietly and privately and would not have given airtime to the public broadcaster. They are a people without a sense of purpose. Whining on the 7 News is admission of their powerless rage.
