Boy, am I glad that in this Post-Colonialist era that Black-Africans have taken control of their respective countries from the Whites for the benefit of all.
"We have family in South Africa, but the future is uncertain there."
I'm glad that he realizes that. One huge disruption is enough. I can barely imagine what it would be like to leave everything you know and love, but one can only wish that more Jews in Europe had realized what was happening and left.
Observe how America's Marxist-Leninist media organs tell us almost nothing about Zim (or Venezuela) these days.
The two most advanced societies on the African continent were once Rhodesia and South Africa. In less than a generation, the bloody scythe of Communism, wielded by black butchers, has turned these countries into seething hellholes, unfit for man or beast. The Mugabes and Mandelas of the world should have been necklaced by their own thugs, long ago.
I was in Britian last week and this subject came up. The peson I was talking to said that the white farmers stole the land from the blacks in the first place, and he appeared to think there was a certain justice in what was happening over there. I don't know much about the history of the place, but it seemed to me to be on the same level of the argument that the Europeans stole America from the Indians, or that the U.S. stole California from Mexico.(Have I just opened a can of worms here?) Whatever the case, I hardly think that what happened in the past justifies what is happening there now.
I'm going to do a little research on the subject, but for now can anyone here give a brief synopsis on whether the Brit's remarks are true?
Many thanks.
This is the first I have heard of the MDC. It is a good article ... sounds Mugabe wants to hold onto power. Not just drive out whites.
Response: Sounds like California!
It must be our fault... surely we did something to upset Mugabe. Maybe the French can help us.
I'm surprised there are any left!
So fleeing to Britain will buy them, what, a few months?
I hope Cathy Buckle is one of the refugees before someone murders her.
The European countries won't help the situation for the same reason they supported Saddam Hussein. Some petty dictator can be bought cheaper than a stable government.
Get ready for the African revolution, says Mbeki

My church frequently (through the United Methodist's UMCOR) donates money to Zimbabewan causes. Recently, they called for help in Zimbabwe's "recent crises," without going into ANY detail about the crisis, other than there was little food.
Of course, they didn't say that these illiterate, uneducated black militia members are taking over huge, technologically advanced farms, after, of course, raping, maiming, and / or killing the whites who have successfully farmed them for generations. These militia members, most of whom can barely read, are left to manage massive operations, and subsequently fail miserably. They then complain the Mugabe's thugs to put pressure on foreign philanthropic institutions to give them food and money, because after they took over these farms, in the breadbasket of Africa (which, by the way, feeds a huge percentage of the continent), they couldn't grow a weed let alone fruits and veggies. Oh yeah, and that money goes straight into the pockets of the average Zimbabwean... riiiiigght.
So... let's see here... famine (Ethiopia, Sudan, etc.), plague (AIDS), fire (civil war), pestilence (Mugabe and the militias)... yup, all present and accounted for. Time to reap what they have sewn.
Maybe they'll build a mock refugee camp in Berkeley to protest the abuse of whites.
It is OK to be a racist, so long as the target of your racism is white.
