The Boer Song

I believe that the song which talks about killing boer's can not be viewed as tradition. The case can be made that the song may be used by elements to incite anger and perpetrate violence against farmers in South Africa. I can't really see myself buying into the idea that the lyrics represent Apartheid. After seeing the clip that was presented in class and listening to the backlash that Bono received as well as reading some other sources about it I understand why there was backlash against the song.
