It's working real well right next door ... why not?
With 2500 a week dying in Zim now, and that number likely to jump by an order of magnitude once the starvation deaths, anthrazx outbreaks and typhus tolls add to that of the ongoing AIDS epidemic, I think it quite likely that the munts running SA will make the same mistake. But unlike the former Rhodesians, the Boers won't wait a decade before unleashing their own operation *operation hatchet* on the continent.
And they may well have another little surprise to put in play available, as well....

As the targets of international hatemongers, it was imperative to have a first rate defense establishment. Hence their development of not only atomic weapons, but perhaps the best mobilie artilery system in the world at the same time. (The Afrikaners, going back before the Boer War have always liked maximum fire power.) They also were in the forefront of Laser research (one of the themes of an unpublished novel, that was the actual prequel to the one for which my site is named).
What is most striking in all of this, from our American perspective, is the fact which will only be fully appreciated by Americans who had a chance to spend some time in the Old South Africa, that the Afrikaner history is that which more closely parallels the American Settler experience than that of any other people in the world. If there is one foreign nation with which Americans can closely identify, without compromising the Washington/Jefferson policy of avoiding entanglements, it is that of the Afrikaner.
