Video & Audio: S.Africas 2nd Last (Boer) President: PW Bothas Last Public Interview (2006)
PW Botha is a Boer who became the 2nd last President under Apartheid. He was the man most responsible for the immense, first class military force known as the SADF. The SADF was the most powerful military force in all of Africa.


[In 1975, the South African Army invaded Angola in support of Unita. This was the first time the South African Army also ran into the Cubans. This was a precursor of much bigger battles to come.

This operation was so secret, that nobody in the rest of the world was to know that the South African Army was busy attacking deep into Angola.

The South African troops were NOT allowed to wear their normal uniforms! They wore prisoner uniforms!

This was quite an amazing operation, and it seems to me some of the SADF columns were actually flown in by air! They were loading Eland Armoured cars on to planes and flying them deep into Angola from where they deployed. That’s pretty impressive air power. Rhodesia had nothing like this I assure you! Jan]

Wie is ons? Boere of Afrikaners? Antwoord van Dr Mike Du Toit
Ek het iemand gehad wat aan my geskryf het oor die onderwerp van Boere teenoor Afrikaners. Ek het besluit om Dr. Mike Du Toit te nader, wat die leier van die Boeremag was en ‘n professionele akademikus is wat baie goed ingelig is oor ons geskiedenis, om hierdie vraag te beantwoord. Dr. Du Toit weet nie net van ons geskiedenis in Suid-Afrika nie, maar ook van ons geskiedenis in Europa. Hier is sy antwoord.
