I recall segments, lead by the media, in our country screaming about how the blacks are treated and how the whites would be protected by the blacks. Now I haven't heard from any of them.

Bump!

Where is Bolshy Blair posturing posing and pretending this week?

Pakistan, again? And the its back to the Balkans for him?

God forbid that he should send a couple of people in soldier suits to somewhere they might actually achieve something, eh -- or do Good?

But then they speak English in Zimbabwe, isn't it -- and are Christian?

Too bad for them!

If that happens, there will be a descent into poverty and terror from which Zimbabwe, a once civilised and sophisticated nation, may never emerge.... but they still have basketball players!

>> An opposition party supporter, he revealed that what really depressed him was the seeming indifference of most black Zimbabweans to what was happening to the whites<<

And the fact that he thought it could be otherwise is the reason that he suffers now.

And it could happen here in the USA if the likes of Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton, Queasy Mfume and John Conyers ever get into real positions of power.

The whites should run, don't walk

The problem with that is the ancestors of those whites have been in southern africa as long or longer than the blacks (and as long as OUR ancestors have been here). The handful of natives of the southernmost regions of SA were killed off or assimilated. The blacks there now were either brought as slaves or migrated there to live by working for (or stealing from) the 'evil' white man.

If civilization flees every time the 3rd world hordes become the majority, western civilization will eventually die (kalifornia would be gone already!). I personally think that the UN should help create a white country out of part of South Africa. Its pretty obvious by now that black africans cannot respect the rights of minorities, and the whites BUILT that country. They're seeing it destroyed every day, but they shouldn't have to give up everything.

Don't shed too many tears for the white Rhodesians. A lot of them are good people but most are english. Just as in SA, the english brought the collapse of southern africa onto themselves by buying into the liberal PC crap from the western world. There might have only been a few million whites in southern africa, but they could have held on forever if they had wanted to. And the english have a place to go now that their homes there are being overrun.

We should all pity the Afrikkaners though. The 'white tribe' of africa has nowhere to run to. They are the people who built SA into a powerful nation. They are, in my opinion, the finest examples left of the people who left northern europe and spread civilization throughout the world. They are a culture that should be preserved.

I think I'll save a copy of this thread. In a few years it might be useful to pull it out and review it with my liberal friends. I'm sure that blame for all future problems will be placed on the whites who fled for their lives (and also on the US).

Actually, there were always blacks in SA. The "no blacks were here" is an urban legend. There always has been and there always will be blacks in Africa. And South Africa is no exception. The whites were perfectly happy with black labor until it bit them in the ass. This is a perfect example of allowing a problem to grow until you can't control it. Killed by your own greed.

Any whites left in SA/Rhodesia is suicidal. Rhodesia will turn into a giant sucking mouth on the tit of the world soon. SA will follow later.

All the whites should leave, with all the assets possible. Investments should stop. The U.N. should be forbidden to help any country as lawless and racist as Zimbabwe. Then simply allow Africa to become Africa. Shouldn't try to fool mother nature.... Semper Fi

You are right.

The American press is silent on this.

They declared a UDI against the UK, the only country to do so other than the USA, rather than submit to majority rule. They fought (ever wonder where all those war veterans come from) against Mugabe's hordes even after South Africa, their only major remaining trading partner betrayed them in hopes of getting some benefit for itself before being doublecrossed again. I would hardly say that they bought into the "liberal, pc crap". In fact, it took a lot more to force them into their current situation then it took the whites of SA, of both tribes.

Upcountry other pensioners have resorted to cooking with dog food - they cannot afford proper meat.

Weird that they have this myth there, too. Pet food, per unit weight, is usually more expensive than human food, especially the type that someone would use to substitute for "proper meat".

Great, as soon as the whites leave all of South Africa will be wide open for Chinese conquest. They already have their foot in the door. I wonder how the Chinese will treat the indigenous black population? Chi-Coms have a unique approach to "poor behavior".

Nope, not a race rant, just the facts, people.
