    Imagine what Rhodesia would be like today if it were left alone, I bet there wouldn’t be as much hunger in certain parts of Africa , other countries in Africa might have copied Rhodesia and developed an prospered too

    One must be honest. Rhodesians fought bravely were indeed betrayed. But a minority rule by a 5% minority was doomed. They should have opened up earlier, further. In hindsight. But many of the farmers are returning now. So maybe, there is a legacy

    As a black libertarian woman who left Zimbabwe has said the problem wasn't race at all, it was freedom vs. communism. The bad guys won in the usual ways that they do, terrorism, intimidation, outside help from people who didn't understand what was going on, and betrayal.

    Rhodesia was the second most powerful country in the region and had the third largest white population. For instance, according to the 'Encyclopaedia Rhodesia', the whites ‘reached 250,000 for the first time in 1971.’ Neighbouring Mozambique (a Portuguese colony) was in fourth place because a census in 1970 showed that it was home to 163,000 whites. Another Portuguese colony, Angola, had the region’s second largest white population, a total of 280,000 in 1970. The country with the largest white population was South Africa. In 1974 a census recorded that there were 4,160,000 whites. (These figures are from Claudia Castelo’s book ‘Passagens para Africa’ and ‘Hutchinson’s Encyclopaedia’).

    In ZimmShithole today, the big news is the government has to spend money going door-to-door, giving cholera shots because of the outbreak In related story a quarter of the homes throughout the countryside do not have indoor toilets so they drink water where they shit causing more disease Because they threw out the entrepreneur class they’re now in a drought and they’re having to beg the international community for cash Amazing how we went from Rhodesia, which was self sufficient and an exporter of food to an importer of food and 163rd in the world ranking Millions are starving so the government is having to give out packages of maize to try to keep them alive 😂 ZimmGhetto is now $18 billion in the hole The healthcare system is $12 billion in debt and the system is crumbling. Hospitals are in crisis, and the food situation is so bad even Rwanda is having to bring in grain to try to keep people alive. 😂😂 Rwanda !!!! Mugabi‘s Chinese buddies are so corrupt they’re being thrown out of the country officially and did I mention there’s another serial murderer in ZimmGhetto? Mbare- the locals are so stupid they see the toilets are completely blocked, but they continue to use them spilling raw sewage all over the bathroom floors which runs into the living room into the kitchen spreading more disease Big cause of death is still HIV Interest rates at 20% means nobody can afford to finance anything and yes, the American dollar is the unofficial currency in ZimmGhetto The idiots invented stories about the British arresting people keeping them and refusing to release them 🙄🙄 but the truth is this government is so bad right now they’ve got nearly 100 protesters locked away for months. It’s so bad amnesty international has intervened to try to get the government to do the right thing .

    I had a friend who had to go to Salisbury just after the communist takeover and she could not get near the government building to do her business. The stench was horrifying. She couldn’t figure out what it was. She thought it was dead bodies rotting in the sun She put a handkerchief over her face and tried to breathe through her mouth it turns out the locals had taken over the government building and loaded it with chickens They brought their chickens with them, and you can imagine the chickens shitting on the lawn and the smell in the hot sun, but that’s the mentality of the locals

    What do you mean Zambia never had any trouble ? 😂 Zambia is still crippled with horrific unemployment, violent crime, black market drugs, lack of basic essentials of life, transportation shortages, and very few school opportunities. Zambia is currently ranked 96 in the economic complexity index way behind South Africa and we know how badly South Africa has crumbled, in the last few years in Zambia, the declining copper prices continue to plague the economy, crippling fiscal deficit energy shortages, and the number one cause of death remains HIV infection. They are plagued with malaria, tuberculosis and soul, crushing poverty, ensuring the premature deaths of millions of Zambians.
