I ask that any current chat with spider879 be continued via your own channels and not my platform - apologies to the moderate sector - there is always some global element that will spoil life's experience for you...

[spider879]

While I have no love for Mugabe,I say fuck ya'll apartheid loving African oppressing scum bag Mfkrs Rhodesia deserved to die and Rhodes body needs to be dug the fuck up and and shipped back to England or dumped in the sea but not buried on Africa's holy site..I was glad to see your asses got kicked..Fuck Mugabe but long live the second rise of Zimbabwe.

[enartee]

@spider879

I figure you have no connection to the country (or Africa) at all - bet you have never even been to Zimbabwe, let alone have any qualification to berate its history or peoples - both recent (under Mugabe) and before 1980, right? The Chinese are the third 'rise' and the new masters... stay safe in your kitchen - thanks for the visit.

[spider879]

@enartee yes I am a de-tribalized Pan-Africanist I have genetic,broad cultural connection with Africans from the Cape to Cairo from the Horn to where the Atlantic touches the shores of the Senegal, so no divide and conquer mentality will work on me,I have contacts from my brothers and sisters from across the continent including Zimbabwe may she earn the title Great to her name once again Africans of the diaspora put our money time and effort ,to defeat apartheid loving mfkrs like you.

[enartee]

@spider879

A true man of the world - and are swift to judge mfkrs... I am tribal (there is not such thing as an African born who is not tribal) - I was never racist or a supporter of the appartheid system in SA (it was never part of the government of Rhodesia) - but your kind could very swiftly change my African born beliefs. You have no 'brothers and sisters' from Africa - you are that part of the American tribe that is a scourge to the planet - and out of here...

@pinz2022 ex-rhodesians need to come together, raise millions of dollars for the purpose of training and equipping our sons and other young men and we prepare to go back to take our homeland. The alternative is talking nonsense about how nice things were in the past. The past is over and time to make a future.

@nazi30215

FY biggoted / ill-informed Information... 'the monkeys' did not murder ALL the white people (at least I still remain for one...) and whilst the majority of the white population looked after their local workers very well, they could not possibly have fed them ALL - WHERE DO YOU COME FROM WITH SUCH DRIVELL? Come to think of it, you can take it back to where ever you came from, AND STAY THERE - you are outtahere... the visit was hardly worth the effort... nrt

@heywoodjerbloume

Given that I had to carry around a vehicle-mounted 240B (US name for an MAG), I am quite aware of the weight.

Many people employed in a light infantry role preferred to carry rifles due to the agonizing weight of carrying a 240B with them all the time. I don't see how the RLI or SADF would have tolerated it.

Perhaps I am just prone to take offense but nothing I said could be reasonably construed as viewing the weight of a machine gun as a video game.

[heywoodjerbloume]

@lipovan87 Really.The mg you got used to.Its heavy but this was a war not a video game.Pamwe chete.

[CreekJohnson200]

@spider879 nigga please you is a Tom, thats all you is, jus Tom. Go backs in da house and cleans it. you never was no africa.

[sass225]

Thank you for the video. I was born in 73 so I never got to see Rhodesia when it was successful economicly. I disagree about the IQ of Blacks being lower than any other group. colin powell is a very smart man. The RAR were Black solders who fought to keep Rhodesia free of communism. It sad that effort wasn't successful. Was lost politicialy just as veitnam was. There were American vets who fought in RLI.

[MrAzrancher]

@spider879 You really dont have a clue do you??

[nighthawk006phoenix]

@Tarapsa: I'd sign up ;

[macoolu]

I say to spider879....the war was NOT lost. It was a majority vote that got the terrorists into power. What was left behind, was paradise on a silver plate, for elementals like your kind to trash and ruin.

[BossHoneycutt]

Black Africans have an avg IQ of 70. That genetic limitation is the problem that can never be overcome, not in Africa, N. America, Europe, anywhere.

Awesome video though, beautiful. It's always striking to see advanced technology created by advanced forms of humanity set in contrast to the rugged lands and primitive hominid breeds of Africa.

[gjc82071]

@RHODESIA111 Wow, that is really cool. I am fascinated with Rhodesia. I sometimes correspond with a Rhodesian I met here on Youtube, but he is very busy & slow in his replies. If you don't mind, I would love to ask a few questions about life in pre-post independence Rhodesia. I completely agree with you about Mugabe. Though the West claims to despise dictators & tyrants, they sure have helped put enough of them in power. They claim to be pro-democracy/human rights, but they have an agenda

[RHODESIA111]

@gjc82071 - I'm English by birth, spent 22 years in Rhodesia, left Jan 79 when, basically (having seen what had happend after so called Independence to the north) we saw the writing was on the wall. Britain and America should hang their head in shame for for being responsible for placing Mugabe in power. Both these countries have vowed a war on the "Axis of evil" - yet Mugabe carries on !! - discuss ?

[spider879]

@kneeslider47 Well I may have been of the mistaken belief that all present knew what he and others like him did .. yes he and his ilk pillaged and burn in the name of their Queen their God their country,and great was their sins, I have no problem if folks of Euro decent want to celebrate Cecil Rhodes but don't expect Africans and folks of African decent to join them,for what ever he did he did in their name.

[kneeslider47]

@spider879 Am I right in thinking you don't like old Cecil much? Just you didn't seem too clear on the subject!

[enartee]

@poohbear750 yes

[poohbear750]

@enartee

[poohbear750]

@enartee MAG, Fabrique` Nationale NATO 7.62 round if I`m not mistaken?
