David Ansara: Why America's Five Asks Would Free South Africans, and the ANC Won't Budge

David Ansara, CEO of the Free Market Foundation, sits down with Gabriel Makin days after returning from Washington, where he and Dr Martin van Staden presented the FMF's Don Caldwell Memorandum on Socialism and Racial Engineering at the White Cross Project conference, and attended the vigil of 3,000 named crosses on the National Mall for South Africa's farm-murder victims. He explains why the FMF thinks the US government's five asks of South Africa are valid, and what they would mean for property rights, investment and race law here. They cover the Expropriation Act's nil-compensation clause, the FMF's Khaya Lam project and its 26,000 title deeds, what the 2017 land audit really shows, the 136 race-based laws on the statute books, Starlink and the 30% ownership rule, the media's "white genocide" framing of the trip, the US visa restrictions, and why David believes South Africa is heading for a point of deep conflict with America unless the government changes course.
