Change white to black, or jews, or... and see if they "might still have a point".

  That ignores the entire history of South Africa but go nuts.

  Context matters. South Africa has the largest inequality in the world. Colonialism created a society where the descendenantd of armed invaders control 80% of th farmland. Whites generally live a comfortable middle class life, while the native population often lives in abject poverty. South Africa is also a glorious example of reconciliation, overcoming a history of injustice without violence. But the farming community simply has not used the chance they had in the last 20 years to become part of this historic process: while universities and many other groups and institutions have de-segregated, that conservative community has dug in and defended their privileges at all costs. They invited the government to eventually force their hand. Expulsion is obviously a bridge to far. And Zimbabwe stands as the obvious example of what not to do. But some sort of legislative land reform is now inevitable.

    > overcoming a history of injustice without violence I'm not sure the truth and reconciliation commission would entirely agree with that.
