Bloemhof - 'some 3,000 young terrorists who learn and regroup after each attack and change their tactics to split up the defenders of a town: Report back by local community defence group member Deon Beukes: He writes on Boere Krisis Aksie facebook page April 13 2014: Bloemhof: the true picture: "My name is Deon Beukes and I belong to the community of Bloemhof. On Monday- and Tuesday we had to go and defend ourselves as a community to prevent our town from being attacked and plundered. Fortunately our neighbourhood watch was reinforced some eight months earlier with radios, nightvision and thermal imaging goggles. The SAPS were unable to defend themselves on Monday and Tuesday against these masses because the police were far too few (and underequipped:) At one stage we even had to lend them our shotgun-cartridges... By Wednesday we were reinforced from as far away as Kathu with about 300 bakkies and men. Our community watch is not politically-driven. We merely acted to protect property irregardless of the political affiliations of the persons who need protecting. These black people had by that time already torched everything in the black neighbourhood and all the intelligence and information we received was that they were marching to attack our town. And this turned out to be correct because they tried three, four times to get into town with a force of about 3,000 people. They behaved in a militant manner - striking us at one place, withdrawing and then striking at us again at another site. We sat and watched them from the GOS and were able to redeploy our men wherever they were needed. The attackers main goal was to break into shop and loot them and to torch other buildings in town. We stood fast and stopped this. On Wednesday-night an SAPS-general arrived and ordered us to stand back. We agreed to do this in return for her bringing in reinforcements. After that we understand pretty much all of North West province's riot police were deplayed in our area. Our information is that the masses plan to 'burn the towns around us so that the police will be split up, because the attackers 'want to take Bloemhof'. So the burning around our town has started: Wollies, Makwassie, Hoopstad, Schwezer-Reineke, Hertzogville and Christiana. I tried to lodge a charge of terrorism against this large group of aggressors but I cannot find any lawyer with backbone to do so. I believe that if we can get such a charge lodged, we could turn this thing around. Please help us with advice and even with an attorney will to help us. We need your help. You don't see one-tenth of what is going on on the news. These terrorists are constantly learning from each terror attack and demonstration they engage in. They adapt, take it on board, plan and re-deploy after every 'operation'. We are of the opinion that they soon will start using the advantage of surprise attacks to try and attack a town and plunder it. We should soon see that attack-groups will no longer regroup outside the towns and then start their riots, but that they will rather regroup inside each town they want to attack, quietly, and then spread into townships and raise amok. This tactic of using violent masses of people is being adapted every day. We are monitoring this process and will keep you informed."
