BLANCHE - Eugene Terre Blanch the leader of the Afrikaner Resistance Movement (the AWB).
Promisied the third Boer war. There would be no black rule. Even The English would finally be put in their place and Nelson Mandela would be re-imprisoned, in Robben Island prison.

Instead today Terre'Blanche is
behind bars for assaulting a black petrol attendant. In prison he faces an overcrowded cell with the very people - black men - he has spent his life oppressing. He is awaiting the outcome of an appeal against a second conviction for the attempted murder of one of his black employees.

A few years ago, the AWB would have taken to the streets threatening bloodshed to defend their leader. but now they are silent.
