Do you think the Apartheid government also betrayed the Afrikaner SADF soldiers in the South Africa border war?
Q. By brainwashing them in a Nazi like way in training camps before sending them out on these ridiculous convoys to "protect" their people. If Apartheid was supposed to be in the interest of Afrikaners why would they screw up their own people?

A. Well, historically speaking there isn't a difference...however, Afrikaner is a broad term for a white Afrikaans speaker in South Africa, Namibia etc whereas Boer tends to get used with the connotation of the white Afrikaner right in SA who want separatism etc etc... the word Boer and the adjective "boere" have connotations to many people whereas Afrikaner is pretty neutral. Boer and boere are also used as insults to Afrikaners, similar to the Anglo-Saxon root "boor" and "boorish", negative connotations. Other insults for whites in SA were, rockspider, plaasjaap, jaap, japie, vaalpens, banana boy, white trash, rooinek, soutpiel and sea-kaffir.

A. Afrikaners are as native to South Africa as the blacks, the coloureds and the indians. The word "native" implies birth or origin in the specified place: a native New Yorker; the native North American, or, in this case, a native South African etc. - Being such by birth or origin: eg.a native Scot. - Being one's own because of the place or circumstances of one's birth: eg. our native land. I therefor cannot understand why you suggest that Afrikaners are bothering the "natives". The Afrikaners ARE natives of South Africa.
