The "rhodesian army" was a group of illegal combatants fighting for the continuations of the illegal settlement and government of Zimbabwe ("Rhodesia" was actually not recognised by the world community as a state) and they even resorted to means of biological warfare - as you can see mentioned in the documentary "Anthrax War" by Bob Coen and in many other well researched sources! Check for "Anthrax War" on Youtube (cannot link it)

HV... you could open up a whole can of worms with your remarks! It was ok for the Zulus to run rough-shod over the sub-continent beating the locals into submission to their ways, but not for any other culture? Your thinking is flawed and more racist than anything I have read in a LONG time - it may well be a brief visit...

I believe the Rhodesians and South Africans were the best fighting force around in Africa at the time.

@Hendrik44987

You have no idea! Have you ever been there?

[Hendrik44987]

@msasauk I dont know what you mean with "brief visit"..However, I mention pure facts and your reply is to get emotionally with nonsense arguments basically saying: "shouldnt every nation have the right to strike biological warfare against another nation, since people have always had war with one another"! Since its obvious that somebody who glorifes "Rhodesias" illegal war against equal rights has a very different sense of justice and democracy than most of us i`m not very suprised about you!

[Tarapsa]

@hictecnic that is wishful thinking and furthest from the truth!!! Look at Rhodesia and South Africa today, the white people are gone. I call that a clear surrender and extreme loss. If our fighting forces were the best they would have taken over. Who cares it's over now anyway.
