  US Secretary of State Marco Rubio and President Donald Trump respond to Julius Malema's 'Kill the Boer' chant, raising concerns over South Africa's expropriation law and its impact on Afrikaners.

The article discusses the controversy surrounding Julius Malema, the leader of South Africa's Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF), who led a chant of "Kill the Boer" at a political rally. This chant, which has historical roots in the struggle against apartheid, was interpreted by some, including former U.S. President Donald Trump and Senator Marco Rubio, as a call for violence against white South Africans, particularly farmers. Trump and Rubio expressed their concerns on social media, with Trump suggesting that the U.S. should offer refuge to threatened Afrikaners. The chant has reignited debates about racial tensions in South Africa, with critics arguing it promotes racial hatred, while supporters see it as a symbolic expression of resistance against historical oppression. The U.S. reaction has opened discussions about potential immigration policies for white South Africans feeling threatened by such rhetoric.
