The controversial Facebook page – allegedly set up by fans of ANC Youth League (ANCYL) president Julius Malema – has been shut down. The page, which had thousands of fans, was in the news this week after a posting by an alleged fan, Thato Mbateti Mbateti, incited violence against whites in SA. Mbateti is reportedly a fake persona.
Comments on the site were this morning more subdued, as the 4 500 fans on the new page posted things like: “Julius is on his way to greatness. No wonder he has got too many enemies. To Julius, hold steadfast for greatness is not for the weary and faint-hearted.” Opposition parties and other youth movements were up in arms over the original page, and called on Malema to distance himself from the remarks.
Jesus H, Jinx !!! That's bloody frightening I don't blame you being scared...When someone like Malema encourages this kind of thinking and behavior in youth, what hope is there ? Reading the article its sounds like this guy's rallies aren't too dissimilar to Hitler Youth rallies back then...Designed to whip up hatred and incite these kids to violence... I hope someone comes along and puts a lid on this for you guys, and fast...

I know there are a lot of good blacks. I am friends with them...but if the numbers of the opposition is so great, there is almost no way we will be able to defend ourselves.

Isn't there a limit for how many immigrants/refugees the country can take?
I'm sure they wouldn't want a bunch of foreigners taking over their country....
or maybe I've lived in SA too long & forgotten that some people are still human?

However, the profile of the person who "wrote" the posting appears to be fake.
