Another step on the road to the Zimbabweisation of South Africa - 'expropriation with compensation determined by the state'

I read that the delightful Julius Malema has been warning white South African farmers again.
"It's a simple policy. We're going to take the land, but we'll compensate and we'll determine the price. We go to [Eugene] Terre'Blanche's farm and say: for these many hectares we will give you R2m, thank you very much.

"If you say that's too little and you don't want it, then we take the land and give you nothing. It's called expropriation with compensation determined by the state."
Is President Jacob Zuma willing or able to reign in Julius Malema? I doubt it for long and within 10 years I predict that white South African farmers will be facing the 'problems' that Zimbabwean farmers have for some years now. I further predict that just as the land-grab policies in Zimbabwe destroyed Zimbabwe's agricultural sector, so Julius Malema's policy will destroy South Africa's.
