We are talking about the same guy who lost in 1948 because he wasn't racist enough
Also from wikipedia:
South Africa entered
World War II on the side of the
Allies against
Nazi Germany and other Axis members. Many in South Africa, including the
Afrikaner Ossewabrandwag (OB) movement, objected and sought to maintain South African neutrality during the conflict, if not enter the war on the side of Germany.
[1]
Members of the OB refused to enlist in the South African forces, and sometimes harassed servicemen in uniform. This erupted into open rioting in
Johannesburg on 1 February 1941; 140 soldiers were seriously hurt.
[2]
More dangerous than this was the formation of the
Stormjaers (English: Assault troops, literally stormhunters), a paramilitary wing of the OB similar to the Nazi
Sturmabteilung. The nature of the
Stormjaers was evidenced by the oath sworn by new recruits: "If I retreat, kill me. If I die, avenge me. If I advance, follow me" (
Afrikaans:
As ek omdraai, skiet my. As ek val, wreek my. As ek storm, volg my).
[3]
The
Stormjaers engaged in
sabotage against the Union government. They dynamited electrical power lines and railroads, and cut
telegraph and
telephone lines.
[2] These types of acts were going too far for most Afrikaners, and Malan ordered the National Party to break with the OB in 1942.
[4]
The Union government cracked down on the OB and the
Stormjaers, placing thousands of them in internment camps for the duration of the war. Among the internees was future prime minister
B. J. Vorster.
At the end of the war, the OB was absorbed into the National Party and ceased to exist as a separate body.
