Terrorists place a bomb in Woolworth's, Salisbury, Rhodesia

[janiebooboo]

I've never seen such racist comments. Rhodesia was a racist state with an ideology of black oppression.

[lorcaclan]

@janiebooboo Shows how proerganda worked, until u lived there u wouldn't know the truth.

[forumlivii60]

SHAME !!!! Europeans !!!!

[SuperFlatdog]

These were my cousins that lost their lives (Mayor's). Only survivor from the family on that day now lives in NZ. I was wounded in1976, whilst I was in the army in a place called Pafur (Mozambique) where the 3 borders intersect. I'm left thinking what was it all for?

I live with hope mankind will learn to accept one another... and just get along

[hcanuck7]

This is what the UN / NWO / Bilderberg Group want.

Rhodesia was destroyed because they belived in self-determination and stood up to international bullying - and they were 'marked' because of it.

[cangooooods]

I wonder if that Morse code actually matches what was written...

[Bozydar82]

Sad. Look to Zimbabwe today.

If terrorist take power, they must be end of peace and happyness.

Mugabe - red stupid terrorist

[corry777]

true

[zimstyle]

The truth of the matter is MDC will never rule this country, that i can assure you. True son of Zimbabwe i am, card carrying and proud of it. Now go kill yourself you personality disordered excuse for a human being!

[givemethebest]

The truth of the matter is that blacks cannot create and run a functioning civilization.

Look at your shitty country now as proof of that!

[bikegirl2]

@givemethebest YEA NOW THEY GOT A NIGGER IN CHARGE OF THE USA ITS FUCKED...LOL

[harleysmurf666]

This is a terrible tragedy and need never have happened if it were not for monarchism and imperialism

[pitcalco]

What is your reasoning behind that assertion?

[harleysmurf666]

Simple, if white Europeans did not run around subjugating forgieners there would be nothing for an insurgent to be insurgent about!

[pitcalco]

I see. Thanks for the explanation.

[205gtist170]

Yes and the Shona people would be free to slaughter the Matebele people...like they did in the 80's after Ian Smiths rule.....nice one!..not!

[zimstyle]

I salute Mugabe and co. True sons of Zimbabwe

[preludefan]

i fucking hate communists, whater bad is going on in the world, wherever people,animals or land are suffering, somehow communists are always involved

[pitcalco]

I am afraid it is true. Sweden has had its hand in more places than it should ever have, however this fact is not going to be advertised on SVT or Sjonvarpid.

[pitcalco]

Just breifly, the Swedish government gave billions of Swedish crowns (hundreds of millions of dollars) directly to ZIPRA, ZANLA and the rest of the Patriotic Front outfits. It was the first western country to be so blatant in its support for the PF. Also, the Davis cup in 1968 was interrupted by riots when the Rhodesian team came to play. Even as late as 2007 right after Smith died, the largest newspaper here wrote a vicious editorial about him (to which I responded in rebuttal)

[pitcalco]

Sweden likes to stay "neutral" until they can see which side is winning. Take a look at the deplorable behaviour of the Swedish government during WWII for an example.

You might be thinking of Switzerland.

[tuberabban]

HK/Singapore may not have much to whine about because those countries became independent fairly quickly when imperialism was becoming untenable after WW2 (Singapore splintered from Malaysia which was independent in 57).

OTOH the huge majority of whites in Rhodesia continued supporting Ian's Smith grossly oppressive white rule til 1980. And even then whites managed to hinder political,land reforms after independence. You reap what you sow and Rhodesian whites have been sowing for 110 yrs.

[preludefan]

fuck you cunt, you know fuck all you liberal piece of shit

[bighitter42]

Switzerland is "textbook neutral" not Sweden. Switzerland is exceedingly free, Sweden is socialist.

[rtuwn]

saw a 'documentary' recently in which old Rhodie govt footage of cops cleaning up a village shot up by terrs (ZANU and ZIPRA) with dead babies, tortured women and so on) was presented as an atrocity committed by the govt forces! Whatever happened to the truth?

[pitcalco]

Welcome to the true nature of news media. It is all about entertainment, not information.

[hamster700]

student unrest in france homegrown terrorists in the UK democracy is a myth socialism is the REAL selution

[tak178]

IDIOT.

[bcfsl]

Well the Brits have paid for their support of Mugabe via July 5th '05, and they now have a serious home-grown terrorist problem of their own. How long before British cops have to drive around in convoys? It's already happening in France!!!. I LOVE it - filthy bloody Euro's seeing the chickens coming home to roost!!!!!

[Scotsgit]

There has been terrorism in the UK for years, usually supported by people in Boston.

[fheit451]

Yeah, majority rule has been great for the black populace...they've seen their standard of living collapse, and if they complain some 15 year old thug hits them with a rifle butt.

[mallaz13]

you are far from reality mate,im always in Zimbabwe and i'm yet to see someone starving to death,it seems like CNN and BBC are the only people who can find starving people down there,its called propaganda mate and it sure does work for people like you.

i do admit times are hard these days for people down there mostly because of the sabotage by Britain and America,im not a fan of Mugabe personally but i think he's just another victim of sabotage.

[pitcalco]

As soon as I read "sabotage by Britain and America" I just drift off. Zimbabwe's apologists need to come up with something fresh.

[mallaz13]

now listen you pussy sucker,Rhodesia is now Zimba and it will never change to Rhodesia,how ever fucked up it is we still love it and always will,u pussies will never taste a bit of it again,its ours now 4 ever hahaha!!

[ZimboJim]

How many people starved to death in Rhodesia?

[mallaz13]

maybe nehimba can help you with that question,he seems to be well read in the "Rhodesia" history,or is he?

[Sunclief]

Not very many, as they all had jobs and were much happier in those time's. Look at them now all starving.

[mallaz13]

Blacks dont hate white,we just dont need them meddling in our affairs nd exploiting us thats why we fucked them up in the so called Rhodesia.

GOOG government where the fuck are u from man,i bet u are a fucking Rhodesian.

[mallaz13]

excuse me which GOOD govt are you referring to?the Rhodisian racist and apetheid government GOOD?Yes it was a GOOD govt for the few whites, that is why they fought dearly to retain it, in the end to no avail.

I am personally not a fan of Mugabe but if i was to choose a better devil between him and Smith,i would pick Mugabe with no hesitation.

[ZimboJim]

Abba funded ZIPRA & ZANLA so avoid tax.

[nisseutlanning]

Yes that is correct. I wonder how they feel like now after supporting Robert Mugabe. Abba may not care about the millions of refugees and dead that Mugabe has created.

[lanzer4]

lol .. Sweden wtf?

[nisseutlanning]

The swedish goverment gave the terrorists millions of dollars and keep supporting the Mugabe terrorist government today with millions. They have since the 1970's supporter communist dictators and terror organisations.

[WFHermans]

This is clear proof "Great" Britain supported terrorism against civilians.

[G58]

And you're a homophobic name calling fool. Keep enlightening us on the abilities of lowest common denominators on this planet.

[ep1433]

Apartheid is wrong but the world did Rhodesia a great diservice by letting their country go to crap. Wta an amazing place it was. I'd be proud to be from Rhodesia.

[gkoekemoer]

Sorry for my wording, but its a FUCKING disgrace how the World screwed this country up!

[edgyodsell]

Of all the immigrants to my country Rhodesians are the best. They are a REAL asset to our country.

[pitcalco]

Read the earlier comment first.

Anyway, I am sure Rhodesians still care, and I do as well.

What I disparage is that after countries like Sweden, and basically everyone else, helped to destroy Rhodesia, they do not care that Zimbabwe is such a dreadful place and do not care to take responsibility for their role in making it so. Sweden especially likes to sit in arrogant judgement of other countries. You would think the story of Rhodesia should cause them to shut their stupid mouths.

[pitcalco]

Jealous??! I am proud of Rhodesia and respect it.

[pitcalco]

I am very pro-Rhodesia, silly. I have suffered a lot in my country to stand up for yours in years past. Don't alienate the friends you have.

[Grootgeld]

I still remember feeling the ground shudder after we got home from shopping. I was 7 years old at the time. Lucky me. We escaped the blast by about half an hour or so.

[rocaindustrial]

I'm just a guy in Romania. My country is a few thousand years old and still struggling to reach a decent level of civilization. I have a question for you guys. When do you believe Zimbabwe will be as civilized as Rhodesia? I mean 1700% inflation? 42 years life expectancy? How many years will take to reach the standards of Rhodesia again? Somebody said that Rhodesia is dead and Zimbabwe will be for ever. Do you think is enough time?

[pitcalco]

Rhodesia was probably the only African country that was NOT racist.

Zimbabwe today IS racist.

[VivaMaiten]

Ahh...

Rhodesia.

It seems so perfect.

[pitcalco]

Well, I suppose it is all spilt milk now. Rhodesia is no more, the Rhodesians are gone and nobody cares.

[OuKrokodil]

Melaman,you're a waste of a White skin.Go join the monkeys in their ignorance & squalor.Dumb-arse!!

[prodigalceltic]

Rhodesia sounds better. I love how "racists" call others "racist."

Hysterical. People who name call like that have the minds of children. Ooga booga ngo, and sure you're white Melaman. Pathetic.

[nqo25]

Zimbabwe not Rhodesia you fool! racist mutherfucer

[OuKrokodil]

nquo 25,were it not for European influence,you wouldn't even be PARTIALLY literate as you are now.If Kruger wants to call it Rhodesia,let him,you stupid MONKEY!

Arise,oh White Africa!!

[macnos]

Now that is a lie. European influence had nothing to do with black peoples' literacy. It is ones determination that enables reading.

[G58]

Really? Okay, let's set aside literacy for a moment [after all we can see how well they communicate here] and talk about the wheel. Yep, the wheel. The one invention that defines a culture's ability to advance through mass communication and trade. At what point were Africans due to invent theirs? As a direct result of European intervention, Africa's entire evolution was artificially accelerated - on every level. Fact

[rmckay2]

Isn't it a bit of a stretch to blame over a half dozen countries for assisting in this terrorist attack? Surely if the USSR (and the other half dozen countries) were behind it it would have been a bit more sophisticated than a 50 pound TNT bomb?

Also, in the US the majority of the news outlets referred to this bombing as an attack by terrorists (yes, they used the t-word) so it was anything but ignored.
