'The SABC had to be blown up' - SA
The Boeremag's plans to take over the country included destroying the South African Broadcasting Corporation's (SABC) building in Johannesburg by blowing it up, the Pretoria High Court heard on Friday.

Police spy Johan Smit, who claimed to have infiltrated the inner circle of the rightwing organisation, expanded on his earlier evidence during cross-examination that targets identified as part of a coup plan included the SABC, Radio Jacaranda and Radio Pretoria.

"Hans Dreyer had to gather information about how we could destroy the SABC and how it was used as propaganda method for and against us. It was said that all of the radio stations had to be destroyed.

"Later it was decided to retain Radio Pretoria for propaganda purposes," he said.

1. It's always nice to get some insight into what passes
for thinking and strategic planning in these organizations.
Takes me back to when I was six and a member of a "secret club".
