Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The War in South Africa: Its Causes and Effects During the summer and autumn of 1899 I spent several months in South Africa examining the political situation in the Transvaal and Cape Colony. I was at Pretoria during the most critical period of the negotiations, at Bloemfontein when the Raad of the Free State decided to stand by the Transvaal, and at Cape Town when the war began, and I had the opportunity of personal intercourse with many men of political prominence in the Republics and the Colony. The earlier chapters of this book are chiefly revised and amplified impressions of what I saw and heard, and include detailed studies of "Outlander grievances" and of the feelings of Dutch and British Afrikanders upon the eve of the present conflict. Several of the chief issues I have detached for separate treatment, fortifying personal experience and intercourse by documentary evidence, some of which has not been before published in this country. The latter part of the volume is chiefly devoted to an economic and political analysis of those factors in the situation which throw light upon the possibilities of a stable settlement upon the termination of the war, and of a peaceful and prosperous future for South Africa.

Download or read book The War in South Africa written by J A Hobson and published by Ostara Publications. This book was released on 2020-04-05 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: John Atkinson Hobson's prophetic book, first published in 1900, describes in clinical detail the lies, deception, underhanded maneuverings, false propaganda which lay behind the outbreak of the Second Anglo-Boer War in 1889. Hobson's book reveals the trail of lies in the build-up to that war. These included faked "atrocity" propaganda, faked allegations of Boer barbarity, corruption, maladministration, and the deliberate distortions and double-crossing in the "negotiations" which preceded the war. Hobson even shows how the lies also included fake stories of "Boer armament build-ups" which were portrayed as evidence of the "Boer threat" to British interests. He also spends time explaining how these allegations were spread across the English-speaking world. They were generated, he proves, in the newsrooms of the anti-Boer "newspapers" in Johannesburg, and sent by telex to London, from where they were fed into the major English language newspapers, conservative and liberal-aligned alike, where they were faithfully repeated without question. In this way, Hobson proves, an atmosphere of hatred against the Boer Republics was engendered, and the British public were incited into supporting armed intervention in a nation on another continent which posed no threat to Britain at all. Finally, Hobson reveals the true source behind the anti-Boer agitation and incitement to war: the powerful Jewish lobby in South Africa, who he openly calls the "Jew-Imperialists." This Jewish lobby, Hobson shows, owned not only the mineral and trading wealth of the Transvaal Boer republic, but also the major media outlets in Johannesburg, which generated the false propaganda against Paul Kruger's isolated and ultimately inoffensive state. He is also biting about South Africa's racial policies, pointing out that the reliance on nonwhite labor would ultimately cause the death of white rule in that country. This brand-new edition has been completely reset and updated with annotations to inform present-day readers of all references to persons and events mentioned in the book. In addition, it also contains a new short history of the course of the Second Anglo-Boer war as a backgrounder.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Arthur Conan Doyle, the author best-known today for his Sherlock Holmes novels, penned the following non-fiction book. Here, he responded to critics of the United Kingdom's role in the Second Boer War and argued that the UK's decision to enter the war was justified. Doyle has a unique stake in this affair, since he served as a volunteer physician in the Langman Field Hospital at Bloemfontein during the Second Boer War in South Africa.

Download or read book The War in South Africa written by J. Hobson and published by . This book was released on 2013-11-29 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Manchester Guardian correspondent John Atkinson Hobson's book describes in clinical detail the lies, deception, underhanded maneuverings, false propaganda-and the ubiquitous Jewish lobby-which lay behind the outbreak of the Second Anglo-Boer War in 1889. The trail of lies included faked "atrocity" propaganda, faked allegations of Boer barbarity, corruption, maladministration, and the deliberate distortions and double-crossing in the "negotiations" which preceded the war. He also explains how these allegations were spread across the English-speaking world. They were generated, he proves, in the newsrooms of the anti-Boer "newspapers" in Johannesburg, and sent by telex to London, from where they were fed into the major English language newspapers, where they were faithfully repeated without question. Finally, Hobson reveals the true source behind the anti-Boer agitation and incitement to war: the powerful Jewish lobby in South Africa, who he openly calls the "Jew-Imperialists." This Jewish lobby, Hobson shows, owned not only the mineral and trading wealth of the Transvaal Boer republic, but also the major media outlets in Johannesburg, which generated the false propaganda against Paul Kruger's isolated and ultimately inoffensive state. "A few of the financial pioneers in South Africa have been Englishmen, like Messrs. Rhodes and Rudd; but recent developments of Transvaal gold-mining have thrown the economic resources of the country more and more into the hands of a small group of international financiers, chiefly German in origin and Jewish in race. "Before I went there, the names of Beit, Eckstein, Barnato, &c., were of course not unknown to me; the very ship in which I crossed bore many scores of Jewish women and children. But until I came to examine closely the structure of industry and society upon the Rand I had no conception of their number or their power. I thus discovered that not Hamburg, not Vienna, not Frankfort, but Johannesburg is the New Jerusalem. "When it is borne in mind that this great confederation of press interests is financially cemented by the fact that Rand mining magnates are chief owners of at least two important London daily papers and of several considerable weekly papers, while the wider and ever-growing Jewish control of other organs of the press warrants a suspicion that the direct economic nexus between the English press and Rand finance is far stronger than is actually known, we shall have a clear comprehension of the press conspiracy which has successfully exploited the stupid Jingoism of the British public for its clearly conceived economic ends." Hobson also provides the casus belli why this Jewish lobby wanted the war: not to seize the mineral wealth of the Boer republic (they already owned that) but to ensure that its political masters were brought under control to ensure a steady cheap supply of black-and white-labor to toil in the dark mines. He is also biting about South Africa's racial policies, pointing out that the reliance on nonwhite labor would ultimately cause the death of white rule in that country. "No satisfactory civilisation can possibly arise where two races live together without blending, one superior in cerebral development and using this superiority to impose all the burden of directly productive labour upon the other, while it despises this inferiority." This book was first published as the Second Anglo-Boer war was already underway, was highly popular, but its open naming of the Jewish Randlords as the source of the lies and agitation raised an outcry from those so named, and the work quickly disappeared down the memory hole. This new edition has been completely reset and annotated. It also contains a short history of the course of the Second Anglo-Boer War, and a new introduction which details the Jewish lobby's role in inciting the Iraq War of 2003.

Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1900 edition. Excerpt: ... chapter iii A chartered press This war is often described as press-made, but few of those who use this expression understand the all-important part which the great factory of public opinion has been made to play. Everywhere the less reputable organs of the press are rightly regarded as disturbers of the public peace, living upon strong sensations; unwilling, and often unable, to check the accuracy of the wild rumours which they promulgate. The "Yellow Press" is a danger in every "civilised" country to-day. It is not, however, necessary to assume that this Yellow Press is engineered by outside interests making for war; its own trade interests may often suffice. South Africa presents a unique example of a large press, owned, controlled, and operated in recent times by a small body of men with the direct aim of bringing about a conflict which shall serve their business interests. When Mr. Rhodes, failing to obtain forcible control of the Rand by the clumsiness of Dr. Jameson and the vacillation of his confederates in Johannesburg, spoke of an appeal to "constitutional means" for gaining his ends, he well knew what he meant to do. He designed to use the armed forces of the British Crown and the money of the British taxpayer to obtain for himself and his fellow-capitalists that political control of the Transvaal which was essential to his economical and political ambitions. To do this, it was above all things necessary to apply an adequate motive-power to the minds of the British Government and the British people. For this work he found the press by far the aptest instrument. Some considerable time ago he had acquired, with Messrs. Eckstein and Barnato, a leading interest in the Cape Argus, the evening paper at Cape Town. The Argus Company...
