I would gladly take these people into this country.

I am guessing that you meant to say that "I would gladly take these WHITE ONLY people into this country."

And that is where the problem lies. Once you let the whites come, the black zimbabweans will also want to come for the same reasons the whites come. Now if you are in charge, how do you justify admitting the whites and keeping the anti mugabe blacks out ? And it is for this reason, that the hands of the US govt. are tied in this matter.

I hope that's not what CB meant, but either way Rhodesian farmers are courted by countries like New Zealand and Australia because they're farmers by trade and commercial farming is pretty hot right now. Another thing is that not many Rhodesians come here anymore, choosing places like Canada and New Zealand,etc. and more are staying in Africa going to places like Zambia and now Mozambique. Here in NY, there are some black Zimbabweans and I met one Afrikaner who thought I was South African. The blacks with an education leave in droves because there aren't any opportunities. Ask any white or black African what the immigration experience is like coming to the US. It's hell.

Not what I meant at all. You know what they say about the word "assume" don't you? Problem is, the black Zimbabweans don't exactly have the same problems as the readily identifiable white folks. I often wonder where the world outrage is. Surely if this was a group of white folks victimizing blacks, we would have marches and vigils and the world would be up in arms as they should be. But for some reason, the world is silent on this one.
