At the Boer congress in Vereeninging in 1902 the Boer leaders complained bitterly because the British would no longer take their families into the camps. Naswhan states that the Boer leaders even asked for their families to be mass murdered...
You are one really sick person.
Which of course was still pretty much standard tactics for western armies as late as the Vietnam war, with "protected villages". That doesn`t make it any less of a crime - typical relativisation attempt from one of the most notorious online apologists.
"Protected villages"? The Mai Lai Messarcre comes to mind, a whole village was razed, all inhabitants killed. Wasn`t a single case either. But that doesn saves British guilt of the Boer war, for which the British goverment, the British queen, and some of the population REFUSES to apologize, in fact, some of them outright deny it happened.
The difference between the Boer war and German tactics during the second world war is that the British destroyed houses and villages in areas to deny support to the partisans, the Germans murdered litteraly millions by not just destroying the villages but killing the inhabitants. The British deliberately killed hundreds of thousends of civillians during WW2 - French, German, Dutch etc.. They only didn`t kill more because they couldn`t. In fact the British aimed to kill the German civillians, not the soldiers.
Mass terror against civillian population as a way of war was an accepted tradition by the British during the Boer War and WW2. When they failed on the battlefield against able men, they started their sadisctic little games against women and children...
And as to illness, nearly all the victims in the camps were children. OH, that would make it totally different, right ? "Those little nazi maggots... we sent them to hell for good!"
You are just utterly distgusting. "They were only children". Geez...
It's worth noting that 4 times as many British soldiers died of disease as Boer women in the camps. Another distgusting relativization attempt from Nashwan...
"The Welshman, Lloyd George, stated: "The fatality rate of our soldiers on the battlefields, who were exposed to all the risks of war, was 52 per thousand per year, while the fatalities of women and children in the camps were 450 per thousand per year. We have no right to put women and children into such a position." British soldier`s fatality rate, including war, disease etc. : 5.2%
Boer women/children fatality rate in Brit death camps : 45%..
Nice site Isegrim, a bunch of neo Nazis. Nashwan`s "bunch of neo Nazis" :
The guys who committed this are Nashwan`s heroes...
This is most distgusting thing I have seen yet from you. I start to get used to your constant anti-israeli rantings even on these boards (whoever checks Nashwan`s post history here can see his attitude towards jewish people), I got used to your *****ing distgusting relativization of terror bombing, your denial of all crimes. One`s stomach can bear Nashwan`s style after much experience with his rotten morals.
But calling dead children, some of them only a few months old, mercilessly starved to the death by the British a "bunch of Neo Nazis" is something so utterly distgusting, so clearly wrong, that I have to throw up even from reading the first letter of your post.
Some quotes from your source on the "history" of the Boer war:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Moreover, proportionately fewer Jews were killed than Boer women and children during the Second War of Independence.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------According to the Simon Wiesenthal centre, approx 9,700,000 Jews lived in countries overrun by the Nazis. Nearly 6 million of those were killed. [/b]
Hmm... interesting... "nearly". Oh, that`s familiar. "Nearly. " It probably wasn`t 6 six million, perhaps only less... perhaps only half... perhaps it never happened.
One has to read between Nashwan`s lines.
Especially if it comes from someone notorious here for his anti-israeli posts, constanstly accusing israelis with mass murder etc. Read Nashwan`s post history if you don`t believe.. he`s regular participant of those Middle east threads.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------Should England subject herself to the same principles applied to Germany, then England must do everything within her power to reinstitute the Boer republics and to pay annual compensation to the Boerevolk for the atrocities committed against the Boerevolk.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This is code for bringing back Apartheid. Oh really... England should pay compensation for something inhumen it commited.
Blasphemy ! Britain will never pay for mass murdering ten thousends of Boers in death camps. It would be unfair...
In fact, this British poster seem to be proud of that fact.
Ind it very hard to see how Britain paying compensation for British committed attoricities and genocide would return the Apertheid... especially since it was the British themselves who invented Apertheid. The site itself condemns Apertheid BTW:
"The British system of apartheid, which they applied all over the world (for instance also in India, Australia and New-Zealand), had to be imported to control the mixed population. The first manifestation of this were signs reading "Europeans" and "Non-Europeans". No Boer ever regarded himself as a "European". Apartheid invoked racial friction and even racial hatred which has in no means abated to this very day, and the bitter irony is that the Boerevolk, who had not been in power since 1902 and who also suffered severely under apartheid in the sense that apartheid robbed them of their land and their work-ethics, are being blamed for apartheid today. "Also:
"What makes this even more odious is that the present defamatory campaign against the Afrikaner people is being conducted on the assertion that Afrikaners are responsible for "apartheid", and that "apartheid" is a crime against humanity.
This encompasses a kaleidoscope of lies. Apartheid was not introduced by the Afrikaner Nationalist Government (ANG) in 1948. Every aspect of the apartheid policy was introduced in South Africa by British colonial governments - pass laws, segregation in schools and sports teams, residential separation of races, political and economic discrimination against Blacks, and prohibition of interracial sexual intercourse. " What do you think, how many black African friends Naswhan has ? Or Jewish? Or Afrikaaner?

England's pretence for the invasion was the rights of the foreign miners. Yet after the war, these very same miners were treated so badly by their English and Jewish bosses
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
There you go, the Boer war is the fault of not just the English but the Jews as well Where does it say that ? It says foreign miners were treated badly by their English and Jewish employers after the war. I don`t know if it`s true or not, but it`s very well known that those mines were taken by the Brits by force from their rightful owners, as in fact the whole war`s reason was England`s greed to take something that belonged to others. Neither it is a secret that diamond industry is dominantly in the hands of jewish families, who run this business for centuries by now... nothing bad in that.
BTW, Nashwan naturally cut the sentence in half... do you know why ? He asked for examples of firing squads killing innocents. That happened in British ruled South Africa; the sentence continoues as :
"Yet after the war, these very same miners were treated so badly by their English and Jewish bosses.........
.... that they had to resort to general strikes in 1913 and 1922 (3 and 12 years after the establishment of the British ruled Union), during which many mine-workers were shot dead in the streets of Johannesburg by the British disposed Union government. So much for the rights of the foreign miners under English rule. "Ever wondered why Nashwan has a reputation for selective quoting ?
It`s distgusting to see these POS like Naswhan crawl under the rocks, and while he`s busy posting anti-israeli crap almost every day on these boards, he weeps crocodile tears for Jews when it becomes beneficial in the denial and relativization of crimes against humanity committed by Britain.
I do not wish to sunk myself into the swamp of these morally rotten individuals, but I only ask a last question from Dowding and Nashwan, the most prominent boer holocaust deniers:
Do you apologize for what was commited against the Boers in those death camps ?
What would you do to compensate them for what your ancestors did to them ?But from their posts, we already know their answer.
Apologize for what ? Compensate for what?
IT DIDN`T EVEN HAPPEN !!
