Zimbabwe election crisis, and issues of imperialism-3/3

[TiberFoaming]

Pitty for the rhodesians. They built a magnificent country from scratch, and they lose all they fight for, betrayed by us, their own kind, by the western world.

But for the zimbabweans????

They got their mayority rule and whites out of the country.

Now they have to enjoy the results. They have to reap what they sow.

Im happy for them. They got what they wanted. They got what they deserve.

If a white man has nothing to gain from Africa, why would a white man constantly keeps pre-occupied with Africa?

What's in it for a Whiteman? Why bother?

Let the Africans take care of their own wars, as the White man has been waging wars for 3000 years since the Roman empire. Africans never interfered in Whiteman's wars, therefore, why would a white man interefer in African wars.

Is there something for a white man in African wars? How about selling arms & striving for African natural resoures?

[Lordangers]

@LijamGerrie No such thing as white man wars. Human wars buddy. We are humans, no difference.

Is there something for a white man in African wars?

Should an election be carried out when a country is under sanctions and it has been made clear to the electorate that the sanctions will be lifted only if the opposition party is elected? Should a political party which is the creation of, and is funded by, hostile foreign forces, and whose program is to unlatch the door from within to provide free entry to foreign powers to establish a neo-colonial rule, be allowed to freely operate? I dont think so! Stay Strong Zimbabwe

Nice voice of reason there!

You are just justifying white man's crimes against humanity by blaming White man's victim, just like your ancestors has been doing. FYI, Since the Roman crusade, White man's sadistic culture of bloodshed has been proven in the Holocaust of millions of Gypsies, Aborigines, Red Indians, Jews, Arabs and blacks, all over the world. Canada was founded after the decimation & on grave yard of the Red Indians. I'm sure you will blame the Holocaust of Canadian Indians on the black man. Right?

[jpc68]

Wrong.

[H2JKAY]

If is wrong tell us how the USA was created and do not forget to tell us how Aborigene lost their country ? and the last one tell us where are the Chagos Islanders ??? why are there not on their land ??? Mr Right

[LijamGerrie]

What are you talking about?

[H2JKAY]

I was reacting to jpc68 comment

[Yorkshireloyal]

But we can blame Rhodesias problems on a black man can't we, Mugabe. You've got your independance in Africa, stop blaming the white man for all your ill's, stand on your on two feet. African society is rampant with corruption and tribalism, don't blame the white man for that. Who are you going to blame in 50-100 years tome when colonialism is but a distant memory?

[H2JKAY]

You must be ignorant or a teenage. Please learn, read and listen.

[Shawneha]

They are white in a blackland, what else is needed

[jpc68]

White in a blackland... That's interesting. I suppose blacks, browns, yellows, reds or pinks land or bussiness owners in Europe or America, would disagree... What I think, and excuse me for having an opinion, as a world citizen, is that Africans need to overcome that "Blackland" mentality. That is one of the roots of the problem with Africa, a sort of post-colonial trauma, that empowers distorted values like blind nationalism, and this kind of turned around racism against all thing "white".

[jpc68]

By the way, almost every people on earth was colonised, at some point or other in history. Even americans and europeans were. By muslims, by romans, by the brittish, etc.. Humanity's history seems like a long struggle between submission and domination, control and freedom. Finally, it seems, we're overcoming that cicle, and Africa now enjoys the same freedom and self-determination as europeans or americans do. It's time for Africa to build something out of that. Something else besides tirannies.

[Shawneha]

I can't go to China and say this is my land I have proof. No i can't do that. If u look around that land u see a distinct people. Same way with Africa, Especially Southern Africa

[jpc68]

When you say "distinct people", you mean people with different skin colours? Or different nose shapes?

I don't know about China, but in my country, and I supose it's the same in the rest of Europe, you buy it, you work it, you use it, you own it. Be you black or white, local, emigrant or son of emigrant. A piece of official paper is proof enough.

[LijamGerrie]

JPC, You sound as if you had a very legitimate convincing point but since we are talking about indiginous people deprived of their property and land, preach your worn out doctrin to those native indiginous Gypsies, Aborgins, Red Indians & Africans who have been enslaved, massacred, decimated & dicplaced from their own land to make room for the White people. No one buys someone's land after one invades, enslaves, massacres, decimates, deprives and displaces the original owner.

Good try anyway!!!

[LijamGerrie]

How did the Whites acquired the land from the very indigenous African people who lived for thousands of years in the same territories? Does massacring, decimating and displacing indigenous Aborigines in Australia and New Zealand, Red Indians all over America or Blacks in Africa, give the the Whites, legitimate rights to own the land, depriving the original native citizens of continents? Is that part of white man's mission of "Christianity, democracy, human rights & liberty"? Good try!

[H2JKAY]

Well said bro

[layishevik]

As usual, while north atlantic mainstream media is engulfed in a delirium of racist frenzy of why negro landless serfs should reposses their stolen lands from white colonial settlers, only democracy now provides adequate historical analysis in proper context. I think democracy now should be broadcasted in every country in competetion with the propaganda machines called BBC, CNN, Fox news, VOA, ABC etc.

[roundnround1]

Good post.

They are both right.

Mr. Horne sees the hypocracy of the west and still feels the pride and exhilaration of 1980. Mugabe was a good man.

Mr. Campbell sees the plight of the poor and the hard fist Mugabe has shown.

The MDC may just turn zimbabwe into another haven for neo-liberal fascists but Mugabe is coming down too hard.

Zimbabwe is very rich in resources, that explains the interest of the west.

Thomas Mapfumo for President.
