Mbuyiseni NdloziGUEST
Your next story, whether it be about...
Mbuyiseni NdloziGUEST
AfriForum, even if now you're going to run like a barrage of AfriForum stories, you know, because maybe we're going to say, yes, indeed, you are so critical.
Mbuyiseni NdloziGUEST
You go at everyone.
Mbuyiseni NdloziGUEST
Nah, nah, nah, nah,

Sizwe Mpofu-WalshHOST
So let's start with the preamble, which is the start of the constitution, right? The first one is this question of apartheid, this question of naming the injustice explicitly.
Sizwe Mpofu-WalshHOST
And the reason why I think you have to name the injustice explicitly is because Otherwise, it opens itself to ambiguities that minorities can take advantage of.
Sizwe Mpofu-WalshHOST
So when you ask who is confused about the injustices of the past, AfriForum.
Mbuyiseni NdloziGUEST
You think they are confused?
Cilliers BrinkGUEST
Nassipi Moya is the Action SA candidate.
Cilliers BrinkGUEST
Action SA is not really in the running to become the largest party or the second largest party or even the third largest party but uh they are being used as a kind of a front for for anc government in swanee just like al jamar was used in johannesburg and in some party i can't even remember the acronym was used in ekuruleni so that's the anc's game even when they don't formally control positions they they have the power and they've got their their puppets So that, Willi Spies from an old friend of mine, used to be an attorney of AfriForum.
Cilliers BrinkGUEST
He is the chap for the Freedom Front.
Cilliers BrinkGUEST
But obviously what we are asking for is for DA supporters to come out in large numbers.
Graeme RaubenheimerHOST
But the Trump administration's been relentless with its five demands put to the union buildings.
Graeme RaubenheimerHOST
That's following earlier delegations to the Capitol by the Solidarity Movement and AfriForum and later Freedom Front Plus, among others.
Graeme RaubenheimerHOST
These five demands are the following, scrapping or exempting U.S. firms from BBB, ending expropriation without compensation, prioritizing farm attacks, condemning kill the boor, and Pretoria distancing itself from the U.S.'s enemies, including Iran.
Graeme RaubenheimerHOST
U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio's new visa restrictions took South Africa by surprise at midnight this week, three weeks after President Cyril Ramaphosa met with Ambassador Leo Brent Boesel III for two hours, who warned, by the way, that U.S. President Donald Trump was growing impatient on Pretoria's response to those five demands.
Graeme RaubenheimerHOST
Sources told News24 that this would not bar travel for President Ramaphosa or top diplomats, but perhaps key figures like ANC Secretary General Fakile Mbulula and EFF leader Julius Malema, who are said to be easier political targets here.
Graeme RaubenheimerHOST
The U.S. ambassador has also threatened even more punitive measures if Pretoria does not directly fulfill Trump's demands soon, claiming that America only has so much patience.
Graeme RaubenheimerHOST
In a nutshell, AfriForum and the Freedom Front Plus have laid the blame squarely at President Cyril Ramaphosa's feet.
Graeme RaubenheimerHOST
While in turn, International Relations Minister Ronald Lamourla has accused quote-unquote fringe groups who wrongly portray themselves as being representatives of the Afrikaner minority as being solely responsible here.

Cary LaniganHOST
AfriForum's new report on 47 farm attacks finds the violence is too organized and too extreme to be ordinary crime.
Cary LaniganHOST
Jacques Broodryk walks Chris Steyn through the findings and says AfriForum has been pushing Washington for exactly the sanctions announced this week.

Chris SteynHOST
Jacques, let us go to the latest report from AfriForum on the nature of torture used in farm killings.
Chris SteynHOST
You studied 47 killings, such killings, in over a period of seven years.
Chris SteynHOST
What sets farm killings apart from other killings in similar circumstances, house robberies in urban areas, for instance?
Rebecca DavisGUEST
I haven't met him or interacted with him, but that's exactly how he sounds in my head.
Rebecca DavisGUEST
It's interesting to me because we know that this is precisely the measure that AfriForum and Solidarity have been pushing for.
Rebecca DavisGUEST
In fact, earlier this year, AfriForum released a lengthy dossier calling for Fikile Mbalula specifically to be sanctioned by the US.
Rebecca DavisGUEST
And one assumes that they are, well, from what I've seen on social media, that they are pretty content with this outcome.
Rebecca DavisGUEST
And, of course, it's continuing in their sort of spin-off groups.
Ebrahim RasoolGUEST
That was the advice given.
Ebrahim RasoolGUEST
largely by AFRI Forum.
Ebrahim RasoolGUEST
Don't touch AGOA because the owners of the mines, the factories and the farms are by and large white.
Ebrahim RasoolGUEST
The people you, Donald Trump, are trying to help.
Ebrahim RasoolGUEST
I think that it's very clear.
Ebrahim RasoolGUEST
It's been on the target.
Ebrahim RasoolGUEST
This has been what the AFRI Forum groups have been asking for.
Ebrahim RasoolGUEST
Go for them.
Nic DawesGUEST
Lester, if you look at the wording of the announcement, it's very clear that BEE and land reform are squarely in the frame of what the administration wants to target.
Nic DawesGUEST
And they're written up in a way that basically creates an environment in which AFRI Forum can phone up the U.S. Embassy in Pretoria and say, This judge made a ruling in the land court that results in expropriation.
Nic DawesGUEST
They should be denied a visa.
Nic DawesGUEST
Or this company implemented a BEE program like the one that, for example, Amazon runs with black tech entrepreneurs.
Graham HopwoodSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
It wasn't a clear commitment that came out of the fishing in Davao recently, unfortunately.
Tonata KadilaHOST
A new report by South African civil rights group AfriForum has examined 47 violent farm attacks between 2019 and 2025, showing a recurrent pattern of torture including burning, stabbing, strangulation and sexual abuse.
Tonata KadilaHOST
AfriForum's Jacques Broderick says the attacks span every province and is calling on government to declare farm attacks a priority crime and condemn rhetoric such as kill the boer.
Jacques BroderickSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
We see levels of violence that are not comparable to other crimes.
Jacques BroderickSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
We see absolute excessive levels of violence and torture quite frequently.
Tonata KadilaHOST
Thank you.

Peter FabriciusGUEST
Was that a factor or was it a factor? Was the factor that we, as you said, there's this protest On the mall, the crosses, the white crosses to represent, you know, the white farmers have been killed.
Peter FabriciusGUEST
Was it a kind of coordinated strategy with AfriForum? I'm a bit in the dark about this, but something seems to have triggered this, which is not quite clear.
John PerlmanHOST
Is it irreparable at that level? I mean, there is a view that, you know, this goes on in the diplomatic space, in the public debate space.
John PerlmanHOST
But in the meanwhile, you know, people who want to maybe sell granadillas to a U.S. partner are getting on with the business and and and doing so but if we if we stay in the public and diplomatic space it's it's hard to see how these this divide gets bridged
