Trump uses photos from wrong country as evidence of ‘white genocide’ in South Africa

[Meathead]

You haven't addressed the premise here though. You just had the American president ambush the leader of another nation using information that is demonstrably false. Are you OK with that?

I doubt your premise that Trump's information is demonstrably false. I get that TDSers want it to be, but doesn't make it so.

This is where the photo was captured from. 1 min in.

This is the demonstration showing the crosses Trump claimed where graves.



Not TDS just fact checking. So I'll ask you. You have no problem with Trump lying while he ambushes a foreign leader?

No. Truck's not there. You think there are no HAZ suits in SA?

Petty feeble.

 

[pknopp]

Are you saying there's no racial genocide in South AfriASAP.

No, he is clearly saying that Trump is a buffoon. I can see another retraction coming from A.T. to avoid a lawsuit again also.

 

[luiza]

The crosses were indeed in South Africa. Democrats lie. It's what they do.

Flyingbeagle has this habit of just regurgitating MSM Fake News and being unaware of real world happenings .

Reminds me of Turdy Tommy Tithead -- keen and enthusiastic but just a born muddle head .

Both use Intel Asset media --- Turdy the porn rag , The Guardian , and here beaglefleagle uses the Independent -- the Intel agencies desperate attempt to have an alternative to the now ridiculed Daily Telegraph .

Trump uses photos from wrong country as evidence of ‘white genocide’

Trump appeared to mistake an article about violence in the DRC for the ‘burial sites of white farmers’ in South Africa

www.independent.co.uk

President Donald Trump’s attempt to demonstrate evidence of “white genocide” in South Africa fell flat after he used pictures from an entirely different country to support his claims.

Trump met with South Africa’s President Cyril Ramaphosa in the Oval Office on Wednesday in an effort to “reset” foreign relations.

The meeting took a bizarre turn when Trump produced an array of articles and showed video footage alleging ethnic cleansing in South Africa.

At one stage, Trump flipped to a printout of a blog post from The American Thinker titled “Let’s talk about Africa, which is where tribalism takes you.”

The featured image on the article, which was taken from a months-old video on Feb 7, showed Red Cross aid workers at a scene in the city of Goma, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, where a mass rape and murder incident had occured.

“Look, here are burial sites all over the place. These are all white farmers that are being buried,” the president falsely claimed while holding up the piece to reporters.

Trump continued to flick through pages, citing “thousands of stories” about the “death, death, death” of white South African farmers from an array of media sites, which the White House cited Wednesday.

It’s the MS13 tattoo all over again! He flashes anything they hand him, regardless of content.

 

[EvilCat Breath]

The current leadership in the Union of South Africa wants the Honky minority to leave.

No doubt about that.

Why aren't the libs celebrating this by welcoming the South African Crackers to America to help them out?

No they don't. The blacks in South Africa want the whites to stay. It's not enough to steal whatever they have. They must stay and be punished.

You guys are the purveyors of pure racial hatred. You will side with pure primal living humans who have done all the nastiness that all races have done if the color of their skin was not white. You will eventually cause people to separate into racial tribes if you are not careful. At this point we are in high tax territory in getting groups to live with each other. not low tax, but high tax. Great progress has been made that human history has not been too good at.

A few Nazi salutes would appease you?

 

[Andrew_Jackson_FTW]

You mean like the South African president did here at the 30min mark?

The only thing you "prove" here is that South Africa has some crazy politicians.

You haven't addressed the premise here though. You just had the American president ambush the leader of another nation using information that is demonstrably false. Are you OK with that?

No, my friend I’m providing a simple clearcut viewpoint. Messing up an article is nothing compared to a major politician of a country shouting kill white in front of 100,000 people. You know what I know what everybody knows if a white politician in America said that about Blacks in front of 100,000 white people it would be used by Democrats probably every day for the next 10 years.

Ambush a leader huh????

So if you had a case of a white European politician shouting kill all Jews in Germany or France or something in front of 100,000 screaming fans. And the president of the United States brought that up in a video. Along with a number of articles and it just so happens that one of the articles has some slight misinformation you would just blow off the main point. See this is how you guys lose every time.

A major politician representing a party that got less then 10 percent in parliament.

It's beyond ironic hearing someone who defends Trump complaining about a politician saying deeply offensive shit. And unlike this dude you didn't just elect him, you reelected him as the leader of the country. I suspect, because, not despite him doing so. Going by the number of times, and way off, I've seen this deeply offensive shit being defended on here.

And for good or ill he is the President. He has the entire federal government at his disposal. So, there is no excuse to openly accuse the leader of a country, in the oval office, in front of a dozen camaras, especially for something as egregious as genocide, on information that anybody with an internet connection and five minutes of time can easily debunk.

As for the main point. Prove to me that there is a genocide going on in South-Africa targeted at the white population. In that interview I saw quite a few white South-Africans, very much alive, some actively disputing the Trump claims.

I'm pretty sure you can't. So I will even make a prediction. You will either deflect, not answer, or try to change the definition of genocide. Which, helpful dude that I am will provide.

Genocide | Definition, Examples, & Facts | Britannica

Genocide, the deliberate and systematic destruction of a group of people because of their ethnicity, nationality, religion, or race. The term was derived from the Greek genos (‘race,’ ‘tribe,’ or ‘nation’) and the Latin cide (‘killing’). Learn more about the history of genocide in this article.

TDS, find a cure.

 

[Mac1958]

LOL! Once again, too funny!

It's become pretty clear that Trump is just like the flock you see on this site. He'll believe whatever a MAGA "source" is saying with no question, no critical thinking, no intellectual curiosity. Then he just locks into it, repeats it, and it spreads.

It's difficult to attach an adjective to describe this. An American President needs complete and accurate information, always, and it's readily available to him in abundance if he wants it.

You guys are nothing if not predictable.

If someone makes a claim. A claim that I can show to be wrong. Showing that claim to be wrong is not "TDS." It is how normal people discuss things.

However, not answering the premise, and simply calling it "TDS" is how people who have nothing relevant to add, dismiss things they can't counter like an honest person would.

At least he's consistently fucking stupid.

We all know "TDS" means "I can't talk about the topic you're talking about because I'm a fucking idiot"

We saw it with Democrats also when they trotted out the "it was over a video" excuse for the mess in Libya.

It's difficult to attach an adjective to describe this. An American President needs complete and accurate information, always, and it's readily available to him in abundance if he wants it.

Accurate information often times shines poorly on a president.

But you think the “left has completely lost it’s shit” if memory serves.

No, not completely. Just enough to lose to a profoundly damaged buffoon.
