Oct 11 2010 - After arrested ex-commander Willem Ratte, 62,  and his nine 'co-accused' finally appeared in the Witbank magistrate's court 11 days after a police-raid on 30 September, a black man wearing Muslim headgear spat at the men while they were being taken to the SAPS prison transport after their very brief court appearance, writes Dr Dan Roodt of the pro-Afrikaans Action group.

Ratte, on a hunger-strike, will not apply for bail. report

  The police also raided the museum itself – confiscating antique Boer-era black-powder weapons, claiming in high-profile media interviews that these weapons formed part of an alleged ‘arms cache’ and that the men were ‘plotting to overthrow the government. ‘ BoerGenocideMuseumRaidConfiscatedArtifactsCAP 'N BALL BLACK POWDER PISTOLS FROM MUSEUM

At the Pretoria hearing, counsel for the accused Johan van Wyk told the court their arrests were unlawful as there had been no search warrant for the farm where they were arrested, and the men had not done anything unlawful. Five of the 12 weapons seized (above) were legal pellet guns for which no licence was required, while the others were all licensed. The men are being held at WITBANK police station.

Arrested were: Willem Ratte, 63, Eugene Becker (48), Justin Schoeman (18), Günther Kotze (32), Corné de Beer (22), Petrus Visser (20), Marais Bouwer (30), Raymond Senekal (43), Wesley Borman (24) , Christopher Meyer (27).

RATTE Willem arrested Oct 1 2010 - AGAIN From the day of this  highly irregular raid, Ratte has been on a hunger-strike and is not expected to apply for bail – because his arrest was illegal, writes Roodt. “The nine other Boer men could possibly be released by Friday 'on warning' - ‘pending an investigation by the department of corrective services.'

According to Ratte's charge sheet, he was detained for the "protection of the constitutional democracy against acts of terrorism" and "possession of arms and ammunition". The SAPS said ‘at this stage there were no charges of terrorism.”

As Ratte’s laywer pointed out, all the confiscated weapons moreover, were legal.

Dr Roodt writes that there also was a large news-media presence at the courtroom – and that they also interviewed the Israeli pro-Boer activist Avigdor Eskin, who is presently touring SA on a fact-finding mission and was present at the court with Dr Roodt.

Ratte looked 'tired and pale' during his brief appearance, Roodt writes. "After we waited for three-and-a-half hours the detainees finally appeared in the court-room - and were taken back to the Witbank prison within 15 minutes.The court ruled that the bail application for the other nine men would be heard on Friday by noon.”

  • Avigdor Eskin at court: supports Afrikaner/Boer-cause

    In the court-room to provide the Boer men with moral support were some 100 supporters, relatives and friends – and also present was  Avigdor Eskin: the Russian-Jewish activist who has given his wholehearted support to the Afrikaner/Boer freedom struggle – and has made a series of videos in which he calls on his fellow-Jews worldwide to help the Afrikaners from the besieged situation they now find themselves in. Eskin is a  Russian-Israeli  conservative  intellectual/activist.  Born in the old  Soviet Union, Eskin emigrated to Israel where he became involved in political activity.  Eskin was raised in an assimilated Jewish family. He studied piano in the famous Gnesin college. Eskin was the youngest Hebrew teacher in Russia; teaching it from the age of 15. He emigrated to Israel in January 1979.

    • He said: “The Afrikaner people have always been our friends. They are now being murdered, mutilated and raped.’  He also noted that like the Israeli Jews, the Afrikaners ‘also have no place to flee to – and this is their secret weapon: they will win despite all the overwhelming odds… Why should the Afrikaners have to face genocidal conditions?"

    In his video-message to the Afrikaner people on June 10 2010 , Eskin asked:
    "People can’t go on living like this. Why should the Afrikaners have to face genocidal conditions, and with some 600,000 of the 3-million Afrikaners already living in dismal homeless conditions in South Africa under an ANC government?

    “This cannot go on like this.  Fifty-thousand white people have already been murdered by black people in the past fifteen years and many black people have suffered equally under the ANC-government.

    • “As it says in the Book of Proverbs, 'a slave cannot be a king. And this is what G-d told us to do - to be humane and keep the Commandments, my message to the Afrikaners is very clear. You are the chosen people,  you are going to win, but it is going to be tough. I will help in any way I can. Take the Bible in one hand and have faith'
      He also had a message for SA president Jacob Zuma namely that he 'must ask forgiveness from the whole nation. He must be honest, and say 'we tried to run the country, we made a mistake, we can't do it.' Eskin said under the ANC government, 174,000 people have already been murdered, of whom 50,000 were white South Africans, including more than 3,600 Afrikaner farmers. "What is more important here,' he asks. "Slogans about democracy, or human lives? It is time when we say, 'enough is enough. I want to tell the government of the ANC that they should go to church and ask for forgiveness.'
