        So Wall Street Journal advocates that thieves keep the stolen land? The Whites got free land, free slave labor and benefits & now declare they made the land glow. Let the real owners lay hands on their property & let them grow.

        Thinking SA model is based on Zim is lazy thinking & poor journalism at best. And we the 72% of dispossed SA population know exactly what that misery is for over 300 years. We cant bear it anymore. #TheLandIsOurs

        Love how its no mention that the minority population, seized and still own over 72% of the valuable farm land. The 90% majority don't even have 5% within their own native borders!

        Too bad this isn't a thought when it comes to stealing Indigenous/Native American lands right here in North America. Reconciliation? Well, if it's only one-sided, we have to do what we have to in order to facilitate true justice and level the equities...

        Only when it affects whites it produces misery, Wall Street is against black economic independence. Whites want us to always depend on them. Mandela paid apartheid Debts and why. How do you pay for the Guns, Exploitation of blacks during apartheid?

        @Julius_S_Malema The land question needs to be fought at home and abroad. Many now working overtime to shape world opinion on this and, they are doing this unchallenged.
