This story in many ways is being escalated on the internet... thought I'd post on RPF, especially that the US government has no comment, but the South African government did... and it's a denial to relocate Americans for up to 10 years in their country, if there's a mega natural disaster like Yellowstone's Caldera Eruption.
The ANC response of denial, was basically, Caucasian Americans staying in S.A for up to 10 years would effect the race of South Africa and bring back Apartheid.

The Yellowstone caldera under Yellowstone National Park.

The ANC government has received a request from the U.S. was rejected to be part of a U.S. disaster management plan which South Africa $ 10 billion a year (about R100 billion) for ten years would receive. According to the plan would be temporary housing for millions of Americans in South Africa built if the Yellowstone super volcano in the country sooner or later would come to a head. Countries that the U.S. will participate noodlenigingsplan, Brazil, Argentina and Australia. A spokesman for the Department of Foreign Affairs, Dr. Sipho Matwetwe, South Africa will not "part of the plan because there is a risk that millions of white Americans in an emergency situation to the country can be sent and we can national culture and identity threat". U.S. scientists for years like the super volcano under Yellowstone National Park in the USA cap. A Super Volcano is one hundred times as powerful as a regular volcano and can not just let millions of people die, but an entire civilization blot. If Yellowstone would erupt, the whole North America and destroy the earth may have a few years in a "volcanic winter" immersed. The last known eruption supervulkaniese apparently about 70,000 years ago occurred along the Lake Toba in Sumatra, Indonesia. It has a volcanic winter that caused six to eight years lasted, and an era of cause global heralded a thousand years lasted. A recent scientific analysis of the molten rock beneath Yellowstone National Park in the United States revealed that an eruption without any external influence possible. Scientists previously believed that many eruptions supervulkaniese first by an earthquake unleashed should the earth's crust to break open for magma to escape. But new research shows that it spontaneously as a result of an increase in pressure can occur. Super volcanoes represent the second biggest threat to life on Earth, after a collision of the Earth with asteroids, and they were in the past responsible for mass extinctions of species on Earth, long-term climate change and shorter "volcanic winters" caused when volcanic ash the sunlight aversion. U.S. scientists have identified South Africa as an area where people could survive in the Yellowstone volcanic winter would cause. Although the U.S. government by no means panic among its citizens would cause, on a "contingency" decision if the worst does take place and Yellowstone erupt. The volcano is currently continuously by seismographs at 45 points monitored and likely the U.S. would have a few weeks or days of warning have large numbers of its citizens abroad, especially to the southern hemisphere to send.
Artist's impression of Yellowstone erupting
Yellowstone in the State of Wyoming 600,000 years ago an eruption experience and more than 1,000 cubic kilometers of ash and lava into the atmosphere filled - about 100 times more than the Mount Pinatubo eruption in the Philippines in 1982, a significant period of global cooling brought. Although the South African ministries of foreign affairs and science and technology, the fully informed U.S. plan, together with the large amounts of money that would pay for temporary housing for Americans in the Karoo and the Kalahari to establish where they could survive, the Cabinet decided to request the U.S. reject. The R100 billion would be from 2014 every year for ten years to pay South Africa, after which the plan would be reviewed. It may take up to ten years for pressure in the magma chamber of the super volcano to build. According to Dr. Jean-Philippe Perrillat of the National Centre for Scientific Research in Grenoble, France, "it is the difference in density between the molten magma in the caldera and the surrounding rock big enough for the magma from the chamber to the surface to increase ". "The effect is the same as the extra buoyancy of a soccer ball under water filled with air, after which it rises to the surface because the surrounding water poet," said dr. Perrillat. "If the magma volume is large enough, it should go to the surface to rise and explode like a champagne bottle that ontkurk be."
According to Dr. Sipho Mathetwe, the South African government,
"sympathy for the American challenge (challenge) to Yellowstone, but we have our own challenges in South Africa. There are 200 million white people in America, and if too many of them to South Africa flights, it is a big problem, even though there enough housing and infrastructure available. It will destabilize the country and may even bring back apartheid. South Africa is not for sale. "
