Cape Town - Fifty five Pilot whales have beached at Kommetjie beach and more are still coming ashore, said the National Sea Rescue Institute on Saturday.

"Efforts are being made to get them out to sea as well as determine what caused the [mass stranding]," NSRI spokesperson Craig Lambinon said.

He said volunteers from four NSRI stations and marine scientists were on scene.

Lambinon said the whales starting coming ashore at about 07:30.

"More are [still] coming ashore" he said. All the whales were being kept alive with water.

Iqbal says... Here goes our local racist circus again with empty headed bigoted comments. Their minds oozing with racist filth at every tap of the keyboard. Even the average Israeli would be disgusted with the garbage that these clowns spew. Larry, please don't insult SA by drawing a comparison with Apartheid Israel's so-called "democracy". Zionism is an ideology that was designed around theft of land, displacement of indigenous inhabitants, ethnic cleansing, lies, deceit, murder genocide and racism (i.e. the perfect embodiment of evil). To prove this I could share some authentic words from some of the key architects of Zionism (btw from my “pretty collection”), but I suppose you already have these. Simple logic tells us (not for the empty-heads), that almost anything can be achieved artificially through the barrel of a gun. So simple arithmetic tells us that if you drive out the majority of the population through murder, ethnic cleansing, etc., and then introduce blatantly racist laws such as the “Law of Return” along with a litany of other racist laws, then Presto! You have an artificial “democracy” with minority group/s. But of course bigoted empty-heads won’t comprehend this. Then you also have “freedom” but you are not allowed to, for example, commemorate or remember your expulsion and eradication (Naqba). Are you imbeciles really so dumb that you cannot see this contradiction, and then you have the temerity to boast about the “beacon of democracy and freedom” crap. Read the article...
