| The farm murders is a is a very serious problem in South Africa. | |
| The response to that is to say, well, there are many problems in South Africa, so why are you pointing to this one? | |
| But the fact of the matter is that it's a very unique problem. | |
| And it's a problem that could only be prevented or combated by a unique counter-strategy. | |
| And there are a few things that make the farm murders unique. | |
| One is the extreme frequency at which it's happening. | |
| Just the sheer numbers, thousands of people having been murdered on farms, many of them tortured. | |
| In many of this those cases, nothing is stolen. | |
| They just come in, they torture the farmers for several hours and then they leave. | |
| They would steal a cell phone and a car, and then they would but they steal the cell phone so that people can't call the police. | |
| So the numbers, just the numbers is very alarming. | |
| The second is the brutality, the high levels of torture that we see, and it's any torture method you can imagine has been employed in in these farm attacks. | |
| And it's the most grotesque tortures you could you could think of in many of these cases, and like I said, many of oftentimes for hours. | |
| The third is the unique economic impact, because farmers are skilled people, they are employers, they provide food for the country. | |
| So it would have disastrous consequences for the nation at large, and it already has. | |
| The fourth is just the fact that farmers live in unique circumstances. | |
| They live far away from police stations, far away from their neighbours, Oftentimes it's dirt roads, oftentimes it's bad cell phone signal. | |
| So that alone says that you need a unique counter-strategy to fix this, even though the South African government doesn't want to recognize this. | |
| But then on top of this, what makes the farm murders exceptionally unique is that it's a very serious crime phenomenon that is also actively encouraged by politicians. | |
| So we have a problem in South Africa with violence against women and children. | |
| But you would never hear politicians, you know, saying, you know, we need to go out and beat women, and we need to go and you know, you know, if you see a child, you should kick the child or something. | |
| You know, we have a we have a serious problem in terms of poaching. | |
| You don't hear politicians encouraging poaching. | |
| We have a serious problem in terms of copper cable theft. | |
| You don't hear politicians encouraging that. | |
| But when it comes to farm murders, you we continuously hear politicians and and very senior politicians actively chanting about killing the farmers and so forth. |
